This article provides clinicians with 3 main factors that relate to long-term success. Long term in this article represents the lifespan of the patient, often requiring more than 40 years of function on the implant restoration. Literature is reviewed and used to provide evidence for these recommendations.

Purpose: Patients may need removal of their teeth with placement of implants for rehabilitation. The clinical problem is the status of the remaining teeth and how this affects the timing for implant placement and the method for provisionalization. The importance of this review is to document the different strategies including sequential tooth removal and grafting and the use of teeth to provide a fixed provisional rather than a removable provisional, to provide surgeons with a reference to maintain patient function during their rehabilitation.

Introduction The primary objective of this study was to quantitatively analyze the skeletal and dentoalveolar parameters following the mandibular expansion with a banded appliance. It was also part of the study to evaluate the amount of dental expansion and assess the change in the intermolar and individual first molar angulation. The basal bone parameters were compared to assess the skeletal effect of removable mandibular expansion appliance therapy.

Objectives: To compare volumetric wear of lithium disilicate against different ceramic (3 mol% yttria-stabilized (3Y) zirconia, 5 mol% yttria-stabilized (5Y) zirconia, lithium disilicate, porcelain and enamel antagonists).
Materials And Methods: Forty lithium disilicate (e.max CAD) specimens (n = 8/antagonist) were wet sanded to 1200grit SiC and mounted into a UAB wear device.

Purpose: Patients receiving full arch implant borne maxillary prostheses require functional, esthetic, and long term success. The importance of this review is to document the difficulty with implant maintenance, the prevalence of peri-implant disease, and the improvement in biologic health when using a prosthesis that can be maintained to minimize plaque. The objective is to provide surgeons with a reference to optimize surgical procedures that can result in improved hygiene and long term maintenance, as well as acceptable functional and esthetic goals.

Importance: Long-term success with a dental implant restoration relies on a stable connection between the abutment and the implant. The purpose of this article is to review current knowledge of the abutment interface, identify problems that develop due to wear and mismatch of parts, and use a problem list to propose a solution. The objective was to provide a concise overview that clinicians can then use to choose a system that addresses the problems of the abutment implant interface.

Purpose: Our recent study indicated that patients with osteoporosis had an increased risk for early and late implant failure perhaps due to a large cancellous space. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to explore the relationship between the amount of cancellous space in an implant site and implant failure.
Patients And Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective cohort study on patients who received dental implants in the posterior mandible at the senior author's practice from January 1, 2008 to October 1, 2019.

Purpose: Recognition of patient-specific risk factors should reduce implant failure. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors associated with implant failure and to determine if these factors differ over time after implant placement.
Methods: The investigators implemented a retrospective case-controlled study and enrolled a sample composed of patients who had 1 or more implants removed from December 1, 2007 to February 29, 2020.

Evidence-based dentistry is the judicious integration of scientific information relating to the patient's oral health and medical condition with the dentist's clinical expertise and the patient's own treatment needs and preferences. In this triad of factors, we (the dentists) are least likely to be formally trained in recognizing our patient's preferences. Do we understand what shapes these preferences?

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to document current practices among pediatric and general dentists who are members of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) regarding the use of local anesthesia (LA) on children undergoing dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (GA).
Methods: A survey was administered via e-mail to AAPD members to document the use of LA during dental rehabilitations under GA and the rationales for its use.
Results: A total of 952 of 5,599 members responded to this survey; 79 percent of respondents use LA at least part of the time during dental rehabilitations under GA.

Introduction: Minor salivary gland neoplasms of epithelial origin are rare in children and adolescents and most are not well documented, except for a few small series and case reports. This study represents a retrospective clinical analysis of nine cases of benign epithelial salivary gland neoplasms accessioned over a 35-year period at the Louisiana State University School of Dentistry and combines the data with well-documented cases from the English-language literature.

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to establish an evidence-based evaluation of the esthetic region of the mouth, by reviewing normal values for the face, the smile line, and the teeth.
Materials And Methods: A Medline search was performed to find evidence-based data on accepted normal ranges of facial and dental proportions. The information found was organized following a sequence of physical examinations, which then was used to develop a decision tree for diagnosis and treatment planning.

This study is a randomized, prospective, double-blind study to evaluate the effects of the combination of local anesthetics and an intravenous nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) vs NSAID alone on quality of recovery following dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (GA). Twenty-seven healthy children aged 3-5.5 years underwent dental rehabilitation under GA.
