Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the influence of oversized drilling on the stability of the implant and the bone response during osseointegration.

Materials And Methods: The trial was designed as a prospective, parallel-group randomized controlled clinical trial with 20 implants placed in the posterior region of the maxilla. The sample size was divided into two groups, 10 each, with implants being placed with manufacturer-recommended implant osteotomy preparation according to the manufacturer guidelines in one group (MR group) vs oversized osteotomy preparation (3 to 5 mm) in the other group (oversized drilling [OD] group). The implant stability was monitored for 3 months by means of resonance frequency analysis, while the crestal bone levels were recorded using parallel technique periapical radiography for 6 months. Patient-reported outcomes including pain, swelling, satisfaction, and implant survival were all monitored throughout the study.

Results: In the MR group, a mean decrease in implant stability quotient (ISQ) values was detected during the first 4 weeks, after which a gradual increase in values was recorded. In comparison, the OD group showed a rapid increase in ISQ value over the entire follow-up period from baseline and up to week 12. Regarding crestal bone level, follow-up showed a significant difference when comparing baseline and 6-month radiographs (P = .00) between the OD group, 0.908 mm ± 0.343, and the MR group, 1.3 ± 0.23 mm.

Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the results suggest that the oversized osteotomy technique may lead to earlier implant stability and postsurgical recovery compared with the manufacturer-recommended technique for osteotomy preparation. However, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Hardware breakage in the form of guide wire or drill bit is a devastating complication particularly if occurs around hip joint during cephalo-medullary nailing. It should be removed on urgent basis as it can migrate to the pelvic cavity and damages adjacent neuro-vascular bundle and visceral organ immediately as well joint arthritis later on. There are very few cases report available in the literature with retrieval techniques by using disc forceps, pituitary forceps, oversized reamers, arthrotomy with joint dislocation and through ilioinguinal approaches occasionally.

Purpose: To answer the following focus question: In preclinical in vivo experimental models, do oral implants placed in overdimensioned (OD) sites present greater biomechanical properties and histomorphometric parameters of osseointegration compared to implants placed in standard or undersized implant sockets?

Materials And Methods: Online databases were searched for controlled animal studies reporting on OD sites up to February 2023. The relative implant- final drill discrepancy (IDD) was used to categorize the control and test groups according to surgical drilling protocol: (1) control: undersized (IDD > 0.5 mm) or standard (IDD = 0.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of a flexible synthetic polymer bone graft to provide implant stability during implant placement in a dense cortical bone model. In the control group (Group 1), sockets were prepared on polyurethane blocks according to the standard implant socket drilling protocol; both oversizing and deepening were applied in Group 2; and only oversizing was applied in Group 3. In Groups 2 and 3, flexible synthetic polymer bone grafts were placed in the sockets prior to implant placement.

Background: Surgeons are routinely required to remove loose or failed pedicle screws and insert a new screw in their place. However, inserting a new screw into an existing hole may compromise the holding capacity of the pedicle screw. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pullout strength of pedicle screws with different thread designs after the primary insertion and revision surgery in a synthetic bone model.

Objectives: To examine factors influencing the primary stability of dental implants when stabilized in over-sized osteotomies using a calcium phosphate-based adhesive cement was the objective.

Methods: Using implant removal torque measurements as a surrogate for primary stability, we examined the influence of implant design features (diameter, surface area, and thread design), along with cement gap size and curing time, on the resulting primary implant stability.

Results: Removal torque values scaled with implant surface area and increasing implant diameters.
