This is an in silico study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical influence of different implant-abutment interfaces (external hexagon and Morse taper implants), retention systems (cement- and screw-retained), and restorative crowns (metal-ceramic and monolithic) using three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA). Eight 3D models were simulated ...

Extraction of the natural tooth may be a prelude to implant placement. This may be done using an immediate placement protocol or require a delayed approach depending on multiple factors that include; residual infection related to the failed tooth being extracted, availability of bone to stabilize the implant at placement or soft tissue issues. Sock...

Currently, the gold standard materials of choice for dental implants are the commercially pure titanium. However, these materials may have suboptimal anterior esthetic outcome due to the dark grayish burnout. To enhance the esthetic outcomes, zirconium dioxide materials, with reported long-term success in medical uses and with its tooth-like color,...

This study evaluated the anatomical factors that influence the virtual planning of zygomatic implants by using cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) scans. CBCT scans of 268 maxilla edentulous patients were transferred to a specialized implant planning software (Galaxis, Sirona) for the following measurements: maxillo-sinus concavity size (small...

This study was designed to evaluate the accuracy of a novel computer-designed and selectively laser sintered surgical guide for flapless dental implant placement in the edentulous jaw. Fifty dental implants were placed in 11 patients with at least one totally edentulous jaw. Initially, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed in each pati...

Orphan Implants are encountered when the dentist places an implant, and for some reason, the patient is lost to follow up, and he visits a second dentist for the restoration. The latter will have no clue regarding the implant in the patient's mouth in such a situation. This situation is also expected when the clinician uses multiple implant brands,...

Severe bone atrophies are considered a challenge in the rehabilitation process. In clinical situations involving excessive vertical bone deficiency in edentulous mandibles, there is risk of fracture and frequently the need for an approach that involves highly complex procedures. In this context, simultaneous three-dimensional bone reconstruction as...

Actinomyces spp. are members of normal oral flora that may give rise to a rare disease- oral actinomycosis . Here we present a case of early implant failure associated with actinomycosis in an otherwise -healthy 43-year-old female and the treatment adopted following explantation. Clinically, one month after the implant placement, the peri-implant s...
