The ideal dentistry is not just to restore the function but also associated with esthetics and comfort of the patients is the reason why implants are gaining more popularity to replace the missing tooth. Implants work on the principle of bone healing, also called osseointegration that is a connection or a bond of the living bone with the implant both structurally and functionally. Implant placement can be affected by multiple reasons including the age, gender, Socioeconomic status, educational qualifications, health and knowledge about the treatment available. Thus, the present study evaluates the age and gender predilection for a single tooth implant placement. A total of about 260 patients with single tooth implants were assets, and the data were statistically analyzed using the SPSS software by IBM version 20. From the results obtained, it was observed that young adults of the age group 21-30 (36.2%) were the highest to undergo a single tooth implant. Male (65%) respondents were more when compared with the females (35%). Maximum single tooth replacement was done in mandibular posteriors mainly 36 (24.6%). From the above study, we could conclude that proper knowledge among the individuals is needed on the availability of the treatment. The treatment must be made more cost-efficient so that every individual in need for implants can access a better treatment of choice and lastly the prevalent group which are more prone for tooth loss must be screened and made aware of the future complications.

Background: It has been a matter of curiosity by athletes, coaches, sports commentators, and sports psychologists why certain athletes are the world's best in their field. Aim: In our study, the mental toughness and motivational climates of licensed basketball players were examined according to age and gender variables. Methods: In this study, the relational screening model was used to determine the relationship between mental toughness and motivational climate in licensed basketball players studying in physical education and sports teaching departments. Results: As a result of this study, where mental toughness and motivational climate, which are known to be necessary to maintain the ideal performance level during competition, are evaluated according to age and gender variables, it is seen that the motivational climate and mental toughness scores do not differ according to the gender of the athletes. Conclusion: As a result of this study, where mental toughness and motivational climate, which are known to be necessary to maintain the ideal performance level during competition, are evaluated according to age and gender variables, it is seen that the motivational climate and mental toughness scores do not differ according to the gender of the athletes. Keywords: Mastery Climate, Performance Climate, Mental Toughness, Age, Gender

Abstract The anterior maxillary jaw is frequently called the “esthetic zone” because of its high visibility and influence on facial appearance. Implant placement and single-tooth restoration in this region can present some esthetic challenges for the clinician. The underlying titanium abutment, for example, can diminish porcelain translucency and result in a darkened prosthesis. Subsequent changes in soft-tissue margins can also result in the visibility of titanium at the gingival crevice. In recent years, all-ceramic restorations have gained popularity in response to increasing patient demands for improved esthetics. This article describes the clinical use of a new, tooth-shaped, ceramic coping system in the restoration of single teeth in the esthetic zones of 3 patients. Four tapered screw implants were placed in the locations of the central incisors (n = 3) and bicuspid (n = 1). Conventional ceramic protocols were used to fabricate all-ceramic crowns that were cemented onto small core abutments attached to the implants. All prostheses restored the biomechanical needs of the patients and achieved excellent esthetic results.
