Purpose: Clinical success of implant prosthodontics is dependent in part upon the type of implant thread design. The selection of implant thread design plays an important role in the outcome of the treatment. This study was undertaken to evaluate the pattern of stress distribution using a finite element analysis; hence, the area which would be bearing maximum load for a given design would be arrived.
Materials And Methods: Three implants with different thread designs, namely V-thread, buttress, and reverse buttress thread designs were considered and dimensions were standardized. The site considered was the mandibular molar region with cortical and trabecular bone assuming to be isotropic and homogeneous. The implant modeling was done with the CATIA software. Vertical loads of 100N were applied. The stresses were calculated as Von Mises stress criterion.
Results: Maximum stresses were seen at the cortical bone and were transferred to the implant. Minimum Von Mises stresses were seen with reverse buttress thread design at the cortical bone. The stresses were observed least at the cancellous bone and maximum at the implant.
Conclusion: Hence, within the limitations of this study the results obtained can be applied clinically for appropriate selection of implant thread design for a predictable success of implant therapy.

With the ongoing advancement of digital technology, oral medicine transitions from traditional diagnostics to computer-assisted diagnosis and treatment. Identifying dental implants in patients without records is complex and time-consuming. Accurate identification of dental implants is crucial for ensuring the sustainability and reliability of implant treatment, particularly in cases where patients lack available medical records.

Background: Facial thread lifting, which is popular in aesthetic medicine because of its minimal invasiveness, has led to advancements in the use of biodegradable polymers such as poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (P(LA/CL)) and its hyaluronic acid-coated variant (P(LA/CL)-HA). These developments enhance biocompatibility and efficacy, offering prolonged benefits through better biostimulation and tissue integration.
Methods: A controlled experiment involving five 4-month-old female pigs compared the effectiveness of P(LA/CL) and P(LA/CL)-HA threads over six months.

Purpose: Osseointegration-associated infections are a critical barrier to widespread implementation of osseointegrated (OI) prosthetics. To address this challenge, a preclinical animal model must exist of the human model to test potential interventions. In this article, we describe a novel rabbit model of OI implant-related infection that can act as a platform for rapid translation and development of therapeutic approaches to combat these uniquely challenging infections.

Aim: The present investigation performed the CBCT to measure the marginal bone loss surrounding the implant both before and after the prosthesis was placed.
Materials And Methods: Within the age range of 21 to 45 years, a total of 20 patients were involved, and all participants gave their informed consent. Immediate implant was inserted and ceramic prosthesis was prepared and given to the patients.
Induced Pseudomembrane Enrichment in Long Nerve Allograft Reconstruction.

Introduction/aims: Long nerve defects are typically reconstructed with autograft or processed acellular nerve allograft (PNA). PNA is convenient and avoids donor morbidity but lacks the neurotrophic environment of autograft. Increased levels of neurotrophic factors have been identified in pseudomembranes induced around silicone implanted between nerve ends.
