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).
Association and relevant factors between objective masticatory performance and subjective masticatory ability among community-dwelling older adults.

Department of Oral Hygiene, College of Dental Medicine, Kaohsiung Medical University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Background/purpose: Dentists often focus on masticatory performance (MP) rather than masticatory ability (MA) and treatment expectations when evaluating older adults. This study aimed to determine if MA aligns with MP and to explore influencing factors.
Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling, including one thousand community-dwelling adults aged 60 and older.
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".

BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Division of Restorative Dentistry, Periodontology and Prosthodontics, Department of Dental Medicine and Oral Health, Medical University of Graz, Billrothgasse 4, Graz, 8010, Austria.
Aims: Bone preservation is a requirement for long-term stability of dental prostheses, which is all the more important in the posterior mandible, given the particular challenges these areas pose to prosthetic treatment. The objective was to investigate the implications of different prostheses on the atrophy of posterior alveolar bone after tooth loss.
Materials And Methods: A total of 457 treatment cases were retrieved from the medical documentation and information network.
Development of an antimicrobial tissue conditioner with quaternary ammonium methacryloxy silane (K18): An in vitro study.
J Prosthodont Res
January 2025
Department of Comprehensive Dentistry, UT Health San Antonio, San Antonio, USA.
Purpose: To determine the effects of K18 quaternary ammonium methacryloxy silane (QAS) on tissue conditioner materials and their antimicrobial properties.
Methods: 30% K18 QAS in methyl methacrylate (MMA; K18-MMA; 0%, 15%, and 20% w/w) was incorporated into a commercial tissue conditioner (Coe comfort). The degree of curing (Shore A hardness), hydrophilicity (contact angle), flow, liquid sorption, mass loss, and antimicrobial properties of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguinis, and Candida albicans were determined.
