The aim of this study was to evaluate stress distribution in peri-implant bone and to investigate the influence of splinting implants by finite element analysis (FEA) with in vivo loading data. The magnitude and direction of the force exerted on implants during maximal voluntary clenching of a subject were recorded with 3-D piezoelectric force transducers. FEA using in vivo loading data was conducted on splinted and non-splinted models with two implants. Overall, the splinted model reduced stress in peri-implant bone in comparison with the non-splinted model.

Over the past few decades, dental implants have been successfully utilized to replace teeth lost due to periodontal disease and other conditions. However, similar to natural teeth, dental implants are vulnerable to inflammatory peri-implant diseases, which can compromise their long-term viability. This review aims to summarize the current understanding of peri-implant diseases and discuss effective strategies for their diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management.

Aim: The aim of this cross-sectional prospective study was to evaluate the bone density changes around the bicortical corticobasal implant placed in the maxilla over 18 months of follow-up using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), focusing on the comparison between the anterior and posterior teeth and regions.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-five subjects (20, 53.26%, were males, and 15, 46.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a combination of immediate implant placement with maxillary sinus augmentation (MSA) solely using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on guided bone regeneration.

Materials And Methods: An interventional before-after (pre-post) study design was used with 30 dental patients (≥18 years of age; 14 males and 16 females) with initial bone heights ranging between 4 and 6 mm. Following the general check-up and the creation of a study model, the planned implant location demonstrated an external right maxilla diameter of more than 5 mm, thereby validating the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) radiograph.

Objective: Abaloparatide (ABL) is a synthetic parathyroid hormone-related protein analog developed as an anabolic drug to treat osteoporosis. ABL increases bone mineral density (BMD) of the long bones and spine; however, the influence of ABL on alveolar bone regeneration remains unknown. This study assessed the effects of systemic ABL administration on tooth extraction socket healing and dental implant osseointegration in a preclinical rodent model.

Dental implant in esthetic zone: A case report.

SAGE Open Med Case Rep

January 2025

PhD in Health Science Program, Faculty of Medicine, Mahasarakham University, Mahasarakham, Thailand.

This case report emphasizes the complexities involved in dental implant placement within the anterior esthetic zone, focusing on the integration of advanced surgical techniques and meticulous prosthetic design for optimal esthetic and functional results. A 28-year-old male presented with the absence of the upper left central incisor, which had been extracted 5 years prior due to fracture. Clinical and radiographic assessments indicated normal alveolar bone levels; however, the esthetic demands required a specialized approach.
