• The influence of three different apical implant designs at stability and osseointegration process : experimental study in rabbits

  1er mars 2016, par Sergio A. Gehrke, Carlos Pérez-Albacete Martínez, Adriano Piattelli, Jamil A. Shibli, Aleksa Markovic, José L. Calvo Guirado
  Objectives The aim of this study was to perform a histomorphometric and biomechanical comparison of three implants with different designs of the apical area to promote a better bone initial stability and its correlation with the osseointegration. Material and methods Fifty-four tapered implants (...)

• Titanium implants coated with UV-irradiated vitamin D precursor and vitamin E : in vivo performance and coating stability

  1er mars 2016, par María Satué, Marta Monjo, Hans Jacob Ronold, Staale Petter Lyngstadaas, Joana M. Ramis
  Objectives This study aimed at evaluating the biological response of titanium implants coated with UV-irradiated 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) and vitamin E (VitE) in vivo and analyzing the effects of aging on their stability and bioactivity in vitro. Material and methods Titanium surfaces were (...)

• Osseoinductive elements around immediate implants for better osteointegration : a pilot study in foxhound dogs

  29 février 2016, par O. Salomó-Coll, J. E. Val Maté-Sánchez, M. P. Ramírez-Fernandez, F. Hernández-Alfaro, J. Gargallo-Albiol, J. L. Calvo-Guirado
  Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects on osseointegration of topical applications of melatonin vs. vitamin D over surfaces of immediate implants. Materials and methods Mandibular premolar distal roots (P2, P3, P4) were extracted bilaterally from six American Foxhound dogs. (...)

• A randomized controlled clinical trial comparing small buccal dehiscence defects around dental implants treated with guided bone regeneration or left for spontaneous healing

  29 février 2016, par Ronald E. Jung, Milan Herzog, Karin Wolleb, Christian F. Ramel, Daniel S. Thoma, Christoph H. F. Hämmerle
  Purpose The aim of the present randomized controlled clinical study was to test whether small bony dehiscence defects (≤5 mm) left to heal spontaneously result in the same clinical and radiological outcome as defects treated with guided bone regeneration (GBR). Materials and methods Twenty-two (...)

• Abutments with reduced diameter for both cement and screw retentions : analysis of failure modes and misfit of abutment–crown–connections after cyclic loading

  29 février 2016, par Izabela Cristina Maurício Moris, Adriana Cláudia Lapria Faria, Ricardo Faria Ribeiro, Renata Cristina Silveira Rodrigues
  Objective The aim of this study was to analyze failure modes and misfit of abutments with reduced diameter for both cement and screw retentions after cyclic loading. Material and Methods Forty morse-taper abutment/implant sets of titanium were divided into four groups (N = 10): G4.8S-4.8 (...)
