Sputtered hydroxyapatite coated implant has investigated as an implant with novel surface coating for dental implant. The aim of this study was to evaluate the 10 years clinical outcome regarding marginal bone loss around implants, success rate, survival rate, biological and prosthetic complication and patients subjective satisfaction for the implant with sputtered hydroxyapatite coating in human. Sixteen patients with 30 implants were employed for this study. One-piece, sputtered hydroxyapatite coated implants were placed in premolar and/or molar sites with one or two missing tooth. Ten years after implant placement, the marginal bone level change was evaluated by periapical radiograph. Incidence of peri-implant diseases and prosthetic complications were also addressed. Patient satisfaction was analyzed by Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire. The mean marginal bone loss was 0.74 ± 1.41 mm. Survival and success rates were 96.7% and 86.7% respectively. Three implants (10.0%) in 3 patients (18.8%) were affected by peri-implantitis. Five implants (16.7%) in 4 patients (25%) had chipping of veneering material on prosthesis. One implant (3.3%) in a patient (6.3%) was fractured and removed. Mean score of Oral Health Impact Profile was 41.6 ranged from 3 to 89. Sputtered hydroxyapatite surface showed comparable marginal bone stability in 10 years result. Keywords: Clinical evaluation, Dental implants, Hydroxyapatite, Implant surfaces, Crestal bone loss, Long-term results.

The aim of this prospective study was to compare implant success rate and crestal bone loss around tilted and straight implants supporting immediate-loading full-arch rehabilitations. Twenty consecutive patients with edentulous jaws treated between June 2013 and July 2015 who satisfied all inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study. All patients were rehabilitated through a full-arch restoration supported by 4 or 6 immediately loaded implants. Clinical and radiographic examinations were scheduled every 12 months to evaluate implant success rates and crestal bone levels. Significant differences in crestal bone levels and success rates between straight and tilted implants were investigated by means of independent statistical analysis; differences were regarded as significant if P < .05. Seventy straight and 50 tilted implants were placed to rehabilitate 14 mandibles and 12 maxillae in 20 patients. After a follow-up of 12 to 36 months, survival rate was 97.1% for straight implants and 96.0% for tilted implants; while success rates were 94.3% and 94.0%, respectively. Success and survival rates were not significantly different (P > .05). Change in crestal bone level was 0.5 ± 0.4 mm for straight implants and 0.6 ± 0.4 mm for tilted implants (P > .05). Straight and tilted implants seemed to have similar behavior after immediate loading rehabilitations. After functional loading, straight and tilted implants did not differ significantly in clinical outcome.

Abstract Objectives Studies considered edentulous patients having smoking habit as a compromised oral condition. This research examined the value of using mini implant mandibular overdenture to maintain long-term satisfactory levels of oral health quality of life and marginal vertical bone loss. Materials and Methods Twenty-nine edentulous patients with smoking habit received four mini implants in the mandible loaded by overdentures. The present study monitored patients radiographically for vertical bone loss after (1 month, 1, 3, and 5 years) of treatment. Patients were also evaluated by oral health impact profile 14 (OHIP-14) pretreatment and at 1 and 5 years of treatment. Statistical Analysis Repeated measure analysis of variance with Bonferroni’s test as a post-hoc test was used to see the difference among time points. Independent sample t-tests were used to compare between anterior and posterior mini implant positions after 5 years of follow-up. OHIP-14 questionnaire was analyzed by Wilcoxon signed ranks for pairwise comparisons at different evaluation times. A Holm-Bonferroni correction method was used to control the familywise error rate. Results The mean of the bone height changes showed a significant difference between 1-month data and all other evaluation intervals while no significance was calculated among other evaluation intervals. Bone loss of the mini implants placed anteriorly was less than those placed posteriorly with a statistically significant difference. A significant reduction in the OHIP-14 score levels was observed between pretreatment and both 1 and 5 years of treatment. No significance was seen between the first and fifth year after treatment. Conclusion Mini implant overdenture could maintain satisfactory marginal bone level changes and oral health quality of life for patients with smoking habit after 5-year follow-up period.

Abstract In the last decade, some investigations have reported that the resorbable blast media surface (also named CaPO4 blasted implants [CaPO4-BIs]) has achieved excellent results. However, no report regarding CaPO4-BIs inserted into fresh frozen bone (FFB) is available. Thus, we planned a retrospective study on a series of CaPO4-BIs inserted into FFB to evaluate their clinical outcome. In the period between December 2003 and December 2006, 16 patients (10 females and 6 males, median age of 55 years) were operated on, and 76 CaPO4-BIs were inserted. The mean implant follow-up was 23 months. Implant diameter and length ranged from 3.25 to 4.5 mm and from 11.5 to 15 mm, respectively. Implants were inserted to replace 7 incisors, 11 cuspids, 31 premolars, and 27 molars. Only 1 out of 76 implants was lost (ie, survival rate [SVR] = 98.7%), and no differences were detected among the studied variables. When peri-implant crestal bone resorption was used as an indicator of clinical success (ie, success rate), it was possible to identify some variables that correlated with a better clinical outcome. Specifically, Cox regression showed that removable prosthetic restoration and longer implant length correlated with a statistically significant lower delta implant abutment junction (IAJ; ie, reduced crestal bone loss) and thus a better clinical outcome. In this study, CaPO4-BIs had high survival and success rates, similar to those reported in previous reports of 2-stage procedures in nongrafted bone. CaPO4-BIs inserted into FFB are reliable devices, although greater marginal bone loss occurs when fixed prosthetic restorations and short implants are used.

Abstract Objective  Preliminary data on survival and success rates of immediately loaded, maxillary, screw-retained, implant-supported, fixed restorations delivered on narrow and low-profile OT Equator abutments (OT Bridge, Rhein’83) were evaluated. Materials and Methods This retrospective study evaluated data collected from patients rehabilitated with OT Bridge prosthetic concept between November 2017 and February 2019 in six different centers. Outcome measures were implant and prosthetic survival rates, biological and technical complications, marginal bone loss (MBL), oral health impact profile (OHIP), bleeding on probing, and plaque index. Results A total of 76 implants were inserted in 14 patients. Patients were followed for a mean period of 15.8 months (range = 12–24). All the patients receive OT Equator (Rhein'83) as intermediate abutments. One year after loading, one implant failed (1.3%). None of the prosthesis failed. One prosthetic complication was experienced in one patient. Three out of 76 implants were connected to the prosthetic framework using only the Seeger system, without screw. Difference in OHIP values was statistically significant (71.9 ± 8.5; p = 0.000). One year after loading, MBL was 0.21 ± 0.11 mm and p-value was 0.000. One year after loading, 8.7% of the examined implant sites present positive bleeding on probing, while 6.4% of the implant sites presented plaque. Conclusion The OT Equator abutments (Rhein'83) showed successful results when used to support maxillary fixed dental prosthesis delivered on four to six implants. High implant and prosthetic survival rates, very low complications, high patient satisfaction, and good biological parameters, including only 0.2 mm of bone remodeling were experienced one year after function. Further studies are needed to confirm these preliminary results.

Esse estudo qualitativo analisou as repercussões da perda dentária total de usuários do serviço público. Aplicou-se o Oral Health Impact Profile simplificado(OHIP14) a cinquenta voluntários e, após a apuração dos resultados, foram selecionados treze pacientes para entrevistas individuais baseadas em um roteiro com questões abertas. A seleção das pessoas foi de acordo com o grau de percepção do impacto da condição bucal na qualidade de vida, medida pela pontuação OHIP, de forma a incluir a maior variedade de perfis da amostra inicial. Da análise do conteúdo dos depoimentos, verificou-se que a perda dentária total tem forte impacto na vida das pessoas e implica consequências negativas como vergonha, dificuldade em se alimentar, prejuízo ao relacionamento social e sentimento de incompletude. A possibilidade de reposição protética dos dentes gera ansiedade nas pessoas e, embora elas saibam que a utilização das próteses possa representar sacrifícios, a expectativa de retorno ao padrão social geralmente aceito e de recuperação de sua própria imagem rejuvenescida faz valer a pena quaisquer sacrifícios.
