dental immediate implant

BACKGROUND: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) replacement may be indicated for various pathological conditions, and the type of condition can affect the surgical procedure and outcomes. The causes of limited range of motion after alloplastic TMJ replacement have not been extensively studied. OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of preoperative jaw anatomy and functional status on the immediate and long-term outcomes of total TMJ replacement using a two-component patient-specific TMJ endoprosthesis...

BACKGROUND: The socket-shield (SS) technique results in long-term functional osseo- and dento-integration, preserving the dimensional stability of hard and soft tissues over time. This study aimed to describe the successful implementation of a surgical technique to facilitate "SS" cases. METHODS: The cases included males and females aged 32-81 years consecutively treated between 2020 and 2023 (longest follow-up, 3.5 years). For each case, pre- and post-operative cone-beam computed tomography (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine files) and intraoral optical scans (IOS; STL files) were performed...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the outcome of bone graft material at alveolar bone augmentation sites combined with dental implants in postmenopausal women with compromised bone health by evaluating cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans at multiple time points. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CBCT scans were analyzed on 55 postmenopausal women with compromised bone health status to determine the fate of alveolar bone augmentation. CBCT scans were taken immediately after surgery and 9 and 24 months post-operatively...

OBJECTIVE: This pilot study aimed to evaluate, for the first time, the changes in facial tissues following the placement of a single dental implant. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients were scanned with a 3D facial scanner (3dMD) before implant surgery, immediately after surgery (T1), at 7 days post-operatively (T2), and at the impression stage (T3). Acquired images were processed using 3dMDVultus software program and volume differences and linear depth measurements were calculated to determine the morphometric changes over time...

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Post-market, prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center study with a primary endpoint of one year. 53 subjects were randomized to receive either immediate implant placement (test group) or delayed implant placement (control group). The mean crestal bone-level changes from implant loading to 12 months post-implant loading were measured using standardized, digital periapical radiographs. Changes in facial plate thickness measured on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images, implant success and survival, implant stability, soft tissue changes, patient-centered outcomes, and adverse effects were measured to assess outcomes between the test and control treatments at 12 months post-loading...

PURPOSE: The current cross-sectional study aims to introduce a new method for the labiopalatal positioning and angulation of immediately placed dental implants in the anterior maxilla with relation to the type of abutment used (straight/angled abutment). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Cone beam computed tomography scans from the database of a private practice were searched for patients who received immediate implants in anterior maxilla. After superimposition of the initial and post-operative scans, incisal/root angle (IRA), incisal/implant angle (IIA) and the difference between both angles were measured...

OBJECTIVES: It is commonly accepted that immediate implantation is the best option for patients since it shortens the time patients must wait for ultimate restoration and provides a predictable functional and aesthetic result. However, this approach is still controversial in patients with apical pathosis. The goal of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the efficacy of immediate implant insertion in patients with apical pathosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between 2000 and 2023, PRISMA-compliant keywords were used to search PubMed, MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and the Cochrane Library...

BACKGROUND: This randomized controlled trial aimed to compare the aesthetic outcome and patient perception of immediate versus DL of implant-supported single crowns. METHODS: A total of 60 patients with a single missing tooth were enrolled and randomly assigned to two groups: immediate loading (IL) and delayed loading (DL). Each group consisted of 30 patients with a total of 30 implants. In the IL group, crowns were loaded onto implants immediately after placement, while in the DL group, a healing period of 3 months was observed before crown placement...

INTRODUCTION: Many adjuvant methods have been researched to enhance the immediate implant success in the recent times. The study's goal was to compare the aesthetic and biological results of immediate dental implants in the aesthetic zone to standard tapered root form implants that had not undergone pre-treatment with platelet-rich plasma or photofunctionalization. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study used a randomized controlled trial as its design. Ninety subjects were chosen at random and placed into three groups: a control group, a case group, and a group that needed replacement of their maxillary anterior teeth right away following extraction...

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the outcome of the loading direction and implant tilting on the micromotion and displacement of immediately placed implants with finite element analysis (FEA). MATERIALS AND METHOD: Eight blocks of synthetic bone were created. Eight screw-type implants were inserted, four axially and four slanted, each measuring 11 mm in length and 4.5 mm in diameter. The axial implants and the tilted implants were distally inclined by 30°. The top of the abutment was subjected to 180 N vertical and mesiodistal oblique (45° angle) loads, and the displacement of the abutment was measured...

Ten patients in need of two adjacent posterior single implants were included. All implants were placed applying a fully digital workflow. Definitive screw-retained single zirconia crowns were delivered within 72 h after implant placement. Clinical parameters, patient- and clinician-reported outcomes were assessed up to 1 year of follow-up...

AIM: To conduct a bibliometric network analysis to explore the research landscape of immediate implant placement (IIP) and provide insights into its trends and contributors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Scopus database was utilized as the bibliographic source, and a search strategy was implemented to identify relevant research articles. Various bibliometric parameters were extracted, including publication year, journal, authors, citations, and funding. The analysis involved examining authorship patterns, international collaborations, level of evidence, Altmetric data, and funding analysis...

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is (1) to compare the accuracy of an open-sleeved static computer-assisted implant system (sCAIS) with a closed-sleeve sCAIS and free-hand approach in immediate implant placement (IIP) of maxillary molar sites and (2) to investigate the influence of socket morphology on these approaches. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety partially edentulous duplicated maxillary models simulating three different molar sockets (type A, B, and C based on Smith and Tarnow's classification) were investigated...

Alveolar bone quality at the implantation site affects the initial stability of dental implant treatment. However, the relationship between bone quality and osseointegration has yet to be evaluated. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effect of bone quality on dental implant stability in osseointegration formation changes. Patients underwent computed tomography imaging before dental implantation at the posterior. Hounsfield units were measured at the platform, middle, and tip sites. Implant stability was measured using resonance frequency analysis immediately and at 3 months postoperatively, in which the difference in implant stability quotients (ISQ) was defined as the change between primary and secondary fixation...

OBJECTIVES: To compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of novel fully tapered tissue-level implants in immediate implant placement (type 1) versus late implant placement (type 4) for the first time. MATERIALS AND METHODS: For this clinical study, 318 fully tapered tissue-level implants in 65 patients were inserted immediately (n = 68 implants) or late (n = 250 implants) in two different centers. Implant survival and success rates and marginal bone levels were analyzed...

Precise reproduction of the preoperatively designed 3-dimensional (3D) implant position is key to seating a prefabricated restoration and restoring esthetics. Static and dynamic computer-aided implant surgery (CAIS) based on the fusion of 3D imaging files have been used to improve implant accuracy. However, both techniques have shortcomings that can be remedied by a robotic system. This clinical report describes the immediate placement of an implant in the anterior esthetic zone by using an autonomous dental implant robotic system (ADIR)...

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...

New surgical techniques using narrow, tilted implants positioned through a magneto-dynamic tool in guided surgery for a Toronto restoration. A 69-year-old woman wanted fixed rehabilitation to replace her removable complete dentures. A cone-beam computed tomography showed significant bone resorption in both the maxillary and mandibular regions. The plan was to load the entire upper arch with six implants immediately, while removable partial dentures were recommended for the lower jaw. The guided surgery project was aligned with the new dentures, and the laboratory created a printed cast with dental implant analogues in planned positions...
