Purpose: The aim of this 10 year retrospective study was to evaluate the crestal bone loss around immediate implant placed in tricalcium phosphate (TCP) grafted extraction sockets
Materials And Methods: Data were collected from files of 58 patients (33 females, 25 males, average age 54.78 years) undergoing immediate implant placement into fresh extraction socket with or without the use of TCP (Cerasorb, Curasan AG, Kleinostheim, Germany) grafting. After implant placement, horizontal gaps larger than 1.5 mm between the implant surface and the bony plate were grafted with TCP without the use of a membrane, while smaller gaps were not grafted. Two hundred fifty-four implants were inserted: 79 were placed immediately with the use of β-TCP as grafting material (group A), 175 were placed in healed extraction sites, with 61 implants placed with the use of β-TCP graft material (group B), and 114 implants were placed without any grafting material (group C). Bone loss recordings were performed using periapical radiography. Measurements were performed from the neck of the implant to level of the surrounding bone in the vertical dimension.
Results: No implant was lost during the follow-up period. Statistical analysis showed no correlation between implant placement timing (delayed or immediate), the use of bone graft, and extent of bone loss.
Conclusion: The use of TCP (Cerasorb) as a grafting material during immediate implant placement allowed no bone loss in 72.1% of the implants, which was very similar to the nongrafted cases for which implants were placed in favorable conditions.

Purpose: Treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the region below the knee (BTK) is dissatisfying as failure of treated target lesions (TLF) is frequent and diagnostic imaging is often challenging. In the BTK-region metallic drug-eluting stents (mDES) yielded best results concerning primary patency (PP), but also annihilate signal in magnetic resonance angiography (MR-A). A recently introduced non-metallic drug eluting bioresorbable Tyrocore® vascular scaffold (deBVS), that offers an option for re-treatment of lesions due to its full degradation within 3-4 years after placement, was investigated with respect to its compatibility with MR-A to unimpededly depict previously treated target lesions.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy on implant stability and crestal bone loss placed in healed sites. The present systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to PRISMA (The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Two investigators carried out the electronic search of Pubmed, Google Scholar, and Ebscohost for published literature from 2012 till March 2024.

Post-extraction ridge resorption is an inevitable phenomenon that cannot be eliminated but is significantly reduced using additional surgical techniques known as socket preservation. They aim to create favorable conditions for implant placement and prosthetic restoration. This study aims to assess the effect of socket sealing (SS) with free gingival grafts on the vertical resorption of socket walls at the premolar and molar regions over 3 months.

Subsequently, the transcrestal sinus lift technique was introduced, offering distinct advantages in terms of indications and reduced morbidity. Most recently, short implants have emerged as a valid alternative to these procedures, even in cases of severe horizontal resorption, allowing for direct placement in many cases.

This study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical performance of two truncated cone implant designs in maxillary sinus lift (MSL) procedures using polyurethane laminas. A total of 128 implants were used. Polyurethane laminas were divided into two groups based on thickness (1 and 3 mm) and two subgroups based on density (20 and 30 pounds per cubic foot, PCF).
