• Bone reactions around dental implants subjected to progressive static load : an experimental study in dogs

  22 juillet 2015, par Leonidas Podaropoulos, Alexander A. Veis, Paolo Trisi, Serafim Papadimitriou, Constantinos Alexandridis, Demos Kalyvas
  Objective To evaluate histologically and histomorphometrically, the peri-implant bone reaction around implants subjected to controlled progressive orthodontic loading. Materials and methods In three beagle dogs, bilateral edentulous flat alveolar ridges were created in the maxillary area (...)

• Comparison of bone morphogenetic protein-2 delivery systems to induce supracrestal bone guided by titanium implants in the rabbit mandible

  17 juillet 2015, par Bo Wen, Liisa Kuhn, Lyndon Charles, David Pendrys, David Shafer, Martin Freilich
  Objective To compare the ability of three non-glycosylated/rhBMP-2 (BMP-2) delivery systems to induce supracrestal bone. Material and methods Thirty-six custom SLActive dental implants were partially embedded in transverse orientation into the posterior mandibles of 18 adult rabbits with the (...)

• Discomfort/pain due to pocket probing at teeth and endosseous implants : a cross-sectional study

  15 juillet 2015, par Jennifer Ringeling, Puria Parvini, Christoph Weinbach, Georg-Hubertus Nentwig, Katrin Nickles, Peter Eickholz
  Aim Patients seem to feel more discomfort/pain after peri-implant probing than after periodontal probing. However, there is not one single study to address this clinical observation. Thus, this study was designed to compare discomfort/pain after peri-implant and periodontal probing. Methods (...)

• Systemic vitamin D supplementation and local bone formation after maxillary sinus augmentation – a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical investigation

  15 juillet 2015, par Ulrike Schulze-Späte, Thomas Dietrich, Christina Wu, Kun Wang, Hatice Hasturk, Serge Dibart
  Objectives Maxillary sinus augmentation procedures with bone replacement grafts aimed to increase bone height in the posterior maxilla. During healing, bone particles are partially resorbed and replaced by the patient's own bone. Vitamin D plays an essential role in calcium homeostasis and is (...)

• Evaluation of peri-implant buccal bone by computed tomography : an experimental study

  15 juillet 2015, par Oscar González-Martín, Carlos Oteo, Ricardo Ortega, Javier Alandez, Mariano Sanz, Mario Veltri
  Objectives To evaluate the accuracy of measuring peri-implant buccal bone when using three different computed tomography devices. Materials and methods Sixty tissue-level or bone-level dental implants were placed in bovine ribs with either buccal bone full coverage, dehiscence or fenestration. (...)
