The paper presents the results of the use of Er:YAG laser for surgical treatment of 48 patients aged 25-73 years with early and late dental implant complications were presented. Among all lasers used in the field of dentistry, the Er:YAG laser seems to possess characteristics most suitable for oral treatment, due to its ability to ablate both soft and hard tissues as well as bacterial biofilms and calculus without causing major thermal damage to the adjacent tissue.

Effect of antiplatelet and anticoagulant medications on implant survival: a long-term retrospective cohort study.

Oral Maxillofac Surg

January 2025

Department of Developmental and Surgical Sciences, Division of Periodontology, School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota, 515 Delaware Street SE, Minneapolis, MN, 55455, USA.

Purpose: This large-scale retrospective study aimed to examine the long-term effect of antiplatelet and anticoagulant medications intake on dental implant treatment outcome.

Materials And Methods: This study retrospectively examined data from patients who underwent dental implant procedures at several university dental clinics within the BigMouth network between 2011 and 2022. Patients' characteristics including age, gender, ethnicity, race, tobacco use, systemic medical conditions and intake of antiplatelets and anticoagulants were analyzed.

Implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation for patients with severely atrophic jaws is challenging due to complex anatomical considerations and the limitations of conventional augmentation techniques. This study explores the potential of subperiosteal (juxta-osseous) implants as an alternative solution, using finite element analysis (FEA) to evaluate mechanical performance. Realistic jaw models, developed from radiographic data, are utilized to simulate various implant configurations and load scenarios.

Artificial Intelligence-Based Detection and Numbering of Dental Implants on Panoramic Radiographs.

Clin Implant Dent Relat Res

February 2025

SEMRUK Technology Inc., Cumhuriyet Teknokent, Sivas, Turkiye.

Objectives: This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based deep learning model for the detection and numbering of dental implants in panoramic radiographs. The novelty of this model lies in its ability to both detect and number implants, offering improvements in clinical decision support for dental implantology.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective dataset of 32 585 panoramic radiographs, collected from patients at Sivas Cumhuriyet University between 2014 and 2024, was utilized.
