The objective was to establish a model in rabbits in which to study the healing events associated with localized indirect osteotome-mediated maxillary sinus floor elevation in conjunction with simultaneous placement of sintered porous-surfaced dental implants. On one side of the maxilla of each of 28 rabbits, a sintered porous-surfaced titanium alloy press-fit implant was placed without the use of a bone graft material, while on the collateral side an implant was placed after first adding Bio-Oss graft particles to the osteotomy. Specimens were retrieved for morphometric assessment of bone contact and bone ingrowth of the porous implant surface after 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks of healing. All implants became osseointegrated by bone ingrowth into the porous implant surface. While the addition of graft particles did not result in a statistically significant increase in the parameters measured, a trend for greater bone contact and particularly bone ingrowth at the apices of the implants was seen as healing time increased. The rabbit maxillary sinus can be used to study healing following placement of sintered porous-surfaced dental implants using the indirect sinus elevation procedure.

Objective: This review primarily evaluated the success, survival and failure rates of implants shorter than 10 mm restored with single-unit or splinted fixed dental prostheses in maxillary sinus augmented sites.

Material And Methods: Two reviewers independently performed the systematic search of electronic databases, including MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL, up to September 2019 with no language restriction. A supplemental hand search consisted of screening 13 journals.

Objectives: The use of short implants has been suggested in recent years as an option for facilitating prosthetic restoration in resorbed jawbones. The aim of the present study was to determine how implant success rate is affected in the long term when ultra-short implants are rehabilitated with fixed restorations, resulting in a crown to implant (C/I) ratio of more than 3:1.

Materials And Methods: The study was conducted as an analysis on all patients operated from December 2005 to November 2007 with ultra-short dental implants.

The purpose of this study was to analyze clinical and radiographic outcomes of sintered porous-surfaced dental implants placed in partially edentulous posterior maxillae. The study group consisted of 42 partially edentulous patients who received sinus augmentation using the lateral window technique or crestal approach at Catholic University Hospital of Daegu and one private clinic. The 42 patients received a total of 92 sintered porous-surfaced dental implants in the edentulous posterior maxillae.

Peri-implant conditions around sintered porous-surfaced (SPS) implants. A 36-month prospective cohort study.

Clin Oral Implants Res

February 2015

Department of Morphological and Biomedical Sciences, Section of Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery, University of Verona, Verona, Italy; Private Dentist, Brescia, Italy.

Objectives: The specific aim of this study was to assess sintered porous-surfaced (SPS) implant system from a biological point of view, through a prospective study of the health status and the evolution of the peri-implant tissues over time and analysis of the changes observed in the various peri-implant parameters.

Material And Methods: Hundred and fifty-one patients were treated consecutively from 2005 to 2007 using 280 SPS implants, which were restored with a single crown or a partial fixed denture. To accurately monitor the health and biological evolution of peri-implant soft and hard tissues, a number of clinical parameters were adopted, such as the modified Plaque Index (mPI), the modified sulcus Bleeding Index (mBI), Peri-implant Probing Depth (PPD), and Crestal Bone Level (CBL).
