In this paper, effects of the implant neck taper and the implant-end fillet on the maximum Von Mises stresses were evaluated in jaw bones, and maximum displacements examined in an implant-abutment complex by a finite element method (FEM). The implant-neck tapers (T) ranged from 45 degrees to 70 degrees , and fillets of implant ends (R) ranged from 0.5 to 1.5mm. Results suggested that under axial load by the maximum Von Mises stresses in cortical and cancellous bones decreased by 71.6% and 14.8%, respectively, and under 45 degrees buccolingual load by 68.2% and 11.0%, respectively. The maximum displacement of implant-abutment complex decreased by 9.1% and 22.8% under axial and 45 degrees buccolingual load, respectively. When T ranged from 64 degrees to 73 degrees and R exceeded 0.8mm, minimum stress/displacement was obtained and the evaluating targets were more sensitive to T than to R. Data indicated that the taper of implant neck favored stress distribution in cortical bones more than the fillet of implant end did; taper of implant neck affected implant stability more than the fillet of implant end did; and the taper of implant neck of 64-73 degrees and fillet of implant end exceeding 0.8mm were optimal selections for the type B/2 bone in a cylinder implant by biomechanical consideration.

Metal 3D printing has been used in the manufacturing of dental implants. Its technical advantages include high material utilization and the capacity to form arbitrarily complex structures. However, 3D printing alone is insufficient for manufacturing two-stage titanium implants due to the limited precision in printing titanium alloy parts.

Objective: This review aims to analyse the implications of the World Health Organization's 2021 world report on hearing, with a particular focus on the cochlear implant field. The objective is to understand the challenges and opportunities highlighted in the report and propose viable solutions for effective implementation within the cochlear implant community.
Methods: Following the release of the World Health Organization's world report on hearing, cochlear implant professionals explored and discussed the implications of the report with examples from various countries to understand the disparities in access, reimbursement policies, and social stigma associated with hearing loss.

Objectives: This study examined the relationships between electrophysiological measures of the electrically evoked auditory brainstem response (EABR) with speech perception measured in quiet after cochlear implantation (CI) to identify the ability of EABR to predict postoperative CI outcomes.
Methods: Thirty-four patients with congenital prelingual hearing loss, implanted with the same manufacturer's CI, were recruited. In each participant, the EABR was evoked at apical, middle, and basal electrode locations.
