The aim of this literature review is to discuss the use of dental implants in growing patients and the influence of maxillary and mandibular skeletal and dental growth on the stability of those implants. It is recommended to wait for the completion of dental and skeletal growth, except for severe cases of ectodermal dysplasia.

Effect of nanogold incorporation into polymethyl methacrylate denture bases on microbial activity in implant-retained mandibular overdentures.
Int J Implant Dent

Lecturer at removable prosthodontic department, Faculty of dental medicine for Girls, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.
Purpose: In this randomized clinical trial, we examined the incorporation of nanogold particles into polymethyl methacrylate denture bases and compared these modified bases with conventional ones in mandibular implant-retained overdentures, focusing on microbiological growth and adhesion characteristics.
Methods: In this study, twenty-two male patients who were completely edentulous participated in a rehabilitation program involving mandibular overdentures retained by two dental implants placed in the canine area. The subjects were categorized into two equal groups, each comprising eleven patients.
Oral health and rehabilitation in face transplant recipients - a systematic review.

Background: Facial transplantation (FT) provides advanced solutions for severe facial defects by incorporating complex tissues such as bone, skin, oral mucosa and nerves. Oral health plays a critical role in FT, impacting both functional outcomes and transplant prognosis. Despite its importance, literature on oral health in FT recipients remains sparse.

Recent focus has shifted toward refining the soft tissue emergence profile to enhance aesthetics, support peri-implant health, and ensure long-term success. Traditionally, titanium stock healing abutments or chairside-customized abutments were used to shape peri-implant tissues and develop the emergence profile for implant-supported prostheses. However, advancements in digital dentistry now allow for more precise customization and increased treatment efficiency.

After tooth extraction, alveolar bone absorbs unevenly, leading to soft tissue collapse, which hinders full regeneration. Bone loss makes it harder to do dental implants and repairs. Inspired by the biological architecture of bone, a deformable SIS/HA (Small intestinal submucosa/Hydroxyapatite) composite hydrogel coaxial scaffold was designed to maintain bone volume in the socket.

Department of Prosthodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Tehran Medical Sciences of Azad University, Tehran, Iran.
This study aimed to assess the effect of cyclic loading on the amount of fixture-abutment microgap in short implants compared to standard implants. This in vitro experimental study was conducted on two groups of short and standard implants ( = 10). The microgap at the fixture-abutment interface was measured under a light microscope at ×75 magnification.
