A traumatic impact to an implant-supported crown might damage the implant, restoration and peri-implant tissues. Ideally, only a small prosthetic retreatment is needed for restoration, as complicated prosthetic retreatments or surgical retreatments in particular, could be very inconvenient for the patient. However, there is a deficiency in literature on how the implant, restoration and surrounding tissues generally react to impact forces. This report demonstrates a case of trauma to an implant-supported crown in the maxillary anterior zone resulting in a displacement of the implant crown. After careful examination and follow-up, it appeared that only the fixation screw was damaged, whereas the implant, restoration and peri-implant tissues remained unharmed. Thanks to the protective qualities of the implant system, an easy prosthetic retreatment could restore the implant-supported crown and a surgical retreatment was prevented.

Comparative Study between Two Adjacent Implants Supported Crowns and One Implant Supported Cantilever Fixed Dental Prosthesis: An Study.
J Contemp Dent Pract
October 2024
Department of Crown and Bridge, Faculty of Dentistry, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.
Aim: To assess hard as well as soft peri-implant tissues within cases having two lost adjacent anterior teeth treated through placing either two implants with two separate crowns or only an implant along with a crown with a cantilever, and evaluating the effect of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) restoration on cantilever design up to 18 months after functional loading.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-seven participants (15 males and 12 females; mean age, 38.6 years; range 20-50 years) with missing two adjacent anterior teeth were treated with implant system (Flotecno implant system, Italy).
Narrow Versus Standard Diameter Implants for Supporting Single Crown Restorations in the Posterior Jaw: A Randomised Controlled Trial.

Department of Dental Services, Emirates Health Services, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Objectives: The aim of this randomised controlled trial was to assess clinical, radiographic and patient reported outcomes of narrow versus standard diameter titanium zirconium (TiZr) implants supporting single crown restorations in posterior sites with limited bone width.
Materials And Methods: Participants requiring replacement of single missing posterior teeth with implant-supported crowns were randomly allocated into 2 treatment groups: narrow (3.3 mm) or standard (4.
Dental Implant Failure Risk in Patients with Bruxism-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Literature.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Medical Center Mainz, Augustusplatz 2, 55131 Mainz, Germany.
Recent research has indicated that placing dental implants in patients diagnosed with bruxism has led to higher rates of implant failure. This study aimed to provide more accurate knowledge about the relationship between bruxism and implant loss in patients (number, age, gender) with different numbers of implants and prosthetic restorations, considering the follow-up time, compared to non-bruxers. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed and Cochrane Library using the keyword combination "dental implant", "bruxism", and "implant failure".

Objective: This study evaluated ResNet-50 and U-Net models for detecting and segmenting vertical misfit in dental implant crowns using periapical radiographic images.
Methods: Periapical radiographs of dental implant crowns were classified by two experts based on the presence of vertical misfit (reference group). The misfit area was manually annotated in images exhibiting vertical misfit.
Wear investigation of implant-supported upper removable prothesis with electroplated gold or PEKK secondary crowns.

January 2025
Oral Technology, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany.
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to investigate, whether polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) secondary crowns could be considered as alternative to gold standard in terms of their physical properties and manufacturing costs.
Methods: An upper jaw model with six implants was used. Frameworks with either 6 PEKK- or 6 electroplated secondary crowns were cemented in a wear simulator.
