Objective: Depression is a significantly prevalent health concern in geriatric populations. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor drugs (SSRI) are the most commonly prescribed antidepressant agents, with increasing rates of prescription. The present report aimed to present a concise review of the current understanding regarding SSRI effects on bone and dental implant outcomes.
Materials And Methods: A broad-based review and summary of literature pertaining to the effects of SSRI on bone metabolism and on dental implant survival was performed.
Results: The available literature indicates that serotonin plays a significant role in bone metabolism and experimental reports demonstrate adverse impacts of SSRI on multiple pathways of bone metabolism. Early clinical reports suggest detrimental effects of SSRI on dental implant survival. The type of SSRI drug, dosage and host-related genetic and metabolic factors could be potential modulating factors. There is a paucity of data regarding SSRI usage and dental implant survival specific to geriatric cohorts.
Conclusion: As older individuals comprise a high-risk group for both high oral rehabilitation and SSRI use, clinicians should be aware the potential association between SSRI and dental implant failures. Well-designed investigations specific to geriatric cohorts are essential to understand the implications of SSRI use on dental implant prognosis.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Assiut University, Assiut, Egypt.
Purpose: This study was performed to introduce, evaluate, and compare various novel assessment protocols designed for straightforward, reliable, and reproducible measurement of alveolar bone levels. These protocols are intended for standardized periodontal assessment and follow-up, utilizing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and manipulation of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) viewer software.
Materials And Methods: Two experienced oral and maxillofacial radiologists developed 5 distinct radiographic measurement protocols.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of titanium and zirconia implants, both within and outside the field of view (FOV).
Materials And Methods: In this study, a dry human mandible was positioned in a CBCT scanner with only its left quadrant included in the FOV. Each type of implant (titanium and zirconia) was placed once in the right second premolar extraction socket and once in the left second premolar extraction socket of the mandible.

The submandibular displacement of a mandibular third molar residual root presents major challenges to oral and maxillofacial surgeons due to the proximity to critical anatomical structures such as the lingual nerve and sublingual artery. Preoperative imaging can approximate the location of the residual tooth root; however, accurately determining its exact position is difficult because of the dynamic nature of the mandible and the difficulty of real-time synchronization of imaging. This study presents the successful extraction of a residual mandibular third molar root in a 67-year-old female patient achieved using a magnetic field-based navigation system.

Background: The present study aims to evaluate a three-dimensional (3D) changes in the crestal bone levels (buccally, lingually/palatally, mesially, and distally) and in the thickness of keratinized tissue around single or multiple implants using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) after 1 year.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight implants were placed in the posterior load-bearing areas in 10 patients. The crestal bone levels and the thickness of keratinized tissue surrounding the edentulous area were assessed preoperatively, immediately after implant placement, and 1 year after implant placement using CBCT (3D imaging technique with DICOM software (Carestream Health, Rochester, NY)).
