Clinical case reports and animal studies have demonstrated that the principle of guided bone regeneration can be applied for surgical treatment of moderate to profound peri-implant bone loss (peri-implantitis). However, the degree of bone regeneration within the peri-implant osseous defect was reported to be variable depending on different clinical factors and on the postoperative course. Most papers dealing with surgical treatment of peri-implantitis advocate the use of a non-resorbable ePTFE membrane for secluding the peri-implant bone defect enabling bone regeneration. Additionally some surgeons fill the defects with allografts or alloplasts. The present case report demonstrates another surgical approach by using autogenous cancellous bone for grafting into the peri-implant bone defect and placing a bioresorbable polylactide membrane as a matrix barrier. The successful outcome of this modified surgical approach enabled the patient to maintain the implant for prosthetic reconstruction after early but severe bone loss.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the biomechanics of implant prostheses and peri-implant bone among 6 different mandibular reconstruction models based on patient data involving the use of an upper free-end double-barrel fibula.
Methods: This study was an observational study. Five models were reconstructed using fibular-supported and implant-supported partial dentures.

Background: Crown cementation is a common technique for implant-supported prosthodontics. However, for possible slipping of the cement below the mucosal margin, its thorough removal poses some issues. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of submucosal cement residues in patients with peri-implant disease by endoscopic visualization and to investigate the potential correlation between the pathological scenario and the spatial position of cement residues.

Background: To investigate the effect of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on the incidence of peri-implantitis (PI) and peri-implant mucositis (PIM).
Methods: Radiographic and clinical chart reviews were conducted to measure the probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing, and marginal bone loss (MBL) around the implants to diagnose peri-implant diseases based on the 2017 workshop classification. Values were recorded at the baseline (T0) to the last available chart and radiograph (T1).

Background: The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically-oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).
Methods: The technique is based on the stratification of three layers: a deep layer with a collagen sponge (CS) in the apical part of the alveolus (where the buccal bone plate was still present) to support the blood clot; a graft layer to correct the PIBD; and a superficial collagen layer to cover the graft thus providing space and enhancing clot/graft stability. Healing was obtained by primary closure.

Purpose: The study aimed to compare the short-term outcomes (3.7±0.4yrs) of full-arch immediately loaded fixed maxillary prostheses supported by conventional and unilateral single zygomatic implants versus those supported by conventional and bilateral single zygomatic implants.
