Immediate implant placement

BACKGROUND: For patients undergoing long-construct fusion surgeries, simultaneous sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fusion is a growing trend in spine surgery. Some options for posterior SIJ fusion include 3D-printed triangular titanium implants or self-harvesting SIJ screws. Both implants require fixation within the sacrum and ileum. Fat embolism syndrome is a rare but known complication of lumbar pedicle instrumentation but has never been reported in association with SIJ fusion, regardless of implant type...

Introduction The current research sets out to assess implant early survival rates and identify relevant parameters. Methods The research spanned the years 2021 and 2022 and included all individuals who had dental implants. Various criteria, such as age, sex, maxilla/mandible, implant location, immediate implant, implant diameter, implant length, and others, were used to determine the implant survival rate in the research. A multiple logistic regression model was used to show the risk variables for early survival rates of implants, and components with p < 0...

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two independent reviewers conducted an electronic literature search in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane databases as well as a manual search to identify eligible clinical studies up to February 2023. Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) comparing IIP with EIP were included for a qualitative and quantitative analysis...

BACKGROUND: The authors aim to investigate the clinical implications of stent use for the management of CoA. METHODS: All observational studies on stent implantation for the treatment of aortic coarctation and the relevant RCTs were systematically retrieved. Outcomes included the immediate success rate, pre- and post-stent gradient, survival, minor and major complications, restenosis, post-stent systolic blood pressure, and reintervention rate. The analysis was further stratified by CoA type, stent type, and the mean age of the patients...

The study aims to present 11 immediately placed implants in posterior extraction sockets applying the dual-zone therapeutic concept. Five patients with non-restorable molars or premolars were treated with single or multiple immediate implants after atraumatic tooth extraction using a piezotome. The dual-zone therapeutic concept included grafting the jumping gap adjacent to the implant up to the gingival margin with a bovine xenograft. A screw-retained customized healing abutment was used to allow healing, and the implant loading was delayed for four to six months...

Background : Short implants have been used in the restoration of edentulous jaws in the past several years. However, some studies have suggested that short implants are less successful than standard implants. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcome of short implants placed in the posterior maxilla or mandible following one-stage or immediate-function protocols with a follow-up of 7 years (clinically) and 5 years (radiographically). Methods : This study included 127 patients rehabilitated with 217 implants measuring 7 mm and supporting 157 fixed prostheses in the posterior segments of both jaws...

INTRODUCTION: Immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) techniques are rapidly evolving. We compared the results from a single-center implant IBR cohort between subpectoral and prepectoral implants with and without a mesh. METHODS: We analyzed all complications and grade 2-3 complications, the implant loss rate, the surgery time, the length of stay (LOS), patient satisfaction, the interval time to adjuvant therapy and cost, with a comparison between subpectoral and prepectoral implant IBR...

BACKGROUND: The placement of implants into the alveolar socket right after tooth extraction is called immediate implant placement (IIP). This approach has its particularities depending on which region of the jaws is involved. The anterior mandible region is peculiar due to the presence of mandibular incisors, which have the shortest roots among all permanent teeth. PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the factors that could be associated with the risk of either cortical bone wall perforation or invasion of the 2 mm secure distance from the surrounding anatomical structures (defined as unsafe implant placement), with IIP in the maxillary aesthetic zone, in a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) virtual study...

DESIGN: This paper is a single-centre, double-blinded, prospective randomised control trial, comparing immediate vs delayed implant placement clinically and radiographically in patients with chronic periodontitis, specifically assessing the molar region. Seventy-four patients were recruited to the study over a one-year period, all of whom returned for follow up throughout the study. STUDY SELECTION: The study adhered to the principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and obtained ethical approval from the affiliated University Hospital of Qingdao...

INTRODUCTION: Radiation therapy can adversely affect outcomes of implant-based breast reconstruction, potentially complicating procedures like nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM), which is increasingly popular in breast cancer management. This study aims to evaluate the impact of radiation on nipple symmetry in patients undergoing bilateral NSM with implant-based reconstruction. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis using data from an Emory University review board-approved database...

BACKGROUND: Although the role of chlorhexidine and other mouthwashes in periodontal therapy has been elucidated, little information is available on their use as routine preoperative mouth rinses before surgery, especially in periodontal procedures such as dental implant surgery. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of preoperative chlorhexidine, essential oil, and cetylpyridinium chloride mouthwashes in reducing bacterial contamination at the time of implant placement...

This is a case of a previously healthy 29-year-old female with erythema and skin excoriations of the left breast nipple-areolar complex (NAC). After a repeat trial and failure of topical hydrocortisone, a diagnostic mammogram and nipple biopsy revealed Paget's disease (PD) of the nipple with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). A subsequent genetic analysis found a breast cancer 2 ( BRCA2 ) gene mutation. Treatment consisted of a left breast skin-sparing simple mastectomy with sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy and immediate tissue expander placement for implant reconstruction...

BACKGROUND: The success of implants in the socket shield technique relies on stress experienced by root fragments within the socket. Although there is no consensus on optimal root fragment thickness, varying thicknesses and dynamic implant placement induce stress in various directions and degrees. This study aimed to assess biomechanical response and stress distribution across different root fragment thicknesses in the socket shield procedure. METHODS: This in vitro study was conducted to assess and compare the stress distribution on residual root structures of varying thicknesses positioned within the labial aspect of the maxillary incisor socket during immediate implant placement of standard dimensions...

AIM: To compare between the rehabilitation of atrophied maxilla with fixed prosthesis using two posterior zygomatic implants and two conventional anterior implants or four implants inserted according to the all-on-four concept regarding the patient quality of life and satisfaction after one year of prosthesis insertion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-six patients with atrophic edentulous maxillae were randomized into two groups: Group I (rehabilitated with fixed prostheses supported by two zygomatic and two conventional implants in the anterior region) and group II (fixed prostheses on four implants in the anterior region following an all-on-four concept)...

BACKGROUND: The reduced treatment time of dental implants with immediate loading protocol is an appealing solution for dentists and patients. However, there remains a significant risk of early peri-implant bone response following the placement of immediately loaded implants, and limited information is available regarding loading directions and the associated in vivo characteristics of peri-implant bone during the early stages. This study aimed to investigate the effects of immediate loading directionality on the expression of mechanical sensing protein PIEZO1 and the healing process of peri-implant bone in the early stage...

The pursuit of predictable implant success in the aesthetic zone continues as technology develops. Creating stable marginal bone and an optimal peri-implant mucosal environment is the foundation for a long-term healthy and aesthetic implant treatment outcome. Tissue stability is dependent on multiple factors, including the regenerative materials used to create the peri-implant supporting tissues and maintain the tissue volume. The present study aims to describe a technique that combines a flapless approach to extract hopeless teeth in the aesthetic zone and implant insertion using an acellular dermal matrix placed to contain the coronal aspect of an innovative ossifying collagen scaffold designed to promote neoformation of vital native bone...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the survival and success rate of and the incidence of complications affecting implants inserted and immediately loaded in sites where an impacted tooth was present in the maxilla. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 10 patients were treated and 14 implants were inserted, 4 in healed sites and 10 in extraction sites. The implant site preparation started in the crestal bone and continued in the enamel and dentine of the impacted tooth. The radiographic depth of implant penetration into the impacted tooth, peri-implant soft tissue and hard tissue condition at the 1-year follow-up and the last follow-up appointment, marginal bone loss at the 1-year follow-up and the last follow-up appointment, and the final aesthetic result were evaluated...

BACKGROUND: The present retrospective study investigates implant retention time in patients who had experienced multiple implant failures and explores possible risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients who underwent placement of at least two implants and experienced failure of two or more implants between 2004 and 2022 were included in the study population. Both patient- and implant-related risk factors, including age, sex, medical history, medication intake, smoking, alcohol consumption, implant properties and anatomical and surgical factors, were evaluated...

PURPOSE: The aim of the present animal study was to examine the impact of two implant designs that promote different insertion torque values on implant stability and evaluate, histomorphometrically, the bone healing for immediate implant placement in fresh sockets. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twelve female sheep (35.0±5.0kg) and 48 conical Morse-taper dental implants divided into two groups (n = 24 per group): G1 group, where the implants present a design that can provide high insertion torque values; and G2 group, where the implants present a design that can provide low insertion torque values...
