This article describes the use of osteotomes for the placement of plate-form implants. Comparison is made between the use of cylinders and the plate form as it relates to bone mass and resistant forces. It concludes by showing several cases in function.

This study is part of an on-going project describing the character of round- and plate-form implants placed in a primate model. In this paper 20 loaded plate-form and 23 root-form implants were connected to prostheses and experimental peri-implantitis was induced by ceasing scaling procedures and placing braided silk ligature around the implants. Twenty-four prostheses utilizing natural teeth were studied for comparison.

This report describes the succession of putative peri-implant pathogens in partially dentate monkeys after dental implantation and prosthetic reconstruction. Tooth and implant (6 root-end form, 4 blade-vent implants) sites in eight monkeys were monitored microbiologically and clinically during the pre-implant stage, abutment connection stage, bridge placement stage, and three and six months after the bridge placement stage. Tooth and implant sites were cleaned monthly post-extraction.
