Optimizing Hard and Soft‐Tissue Esthetics With Anterior Cantilever Zirconia Ceramic Resin‐Bonded Fixed Dental Prostheses

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The replacement of missing maxillary lateral incisors poses both functional and esthetic challenges, not only from a restorative but also from a periodontal aspect. This case report presents a step‐by‐step protocol for ideal hard and soft‐tissue esthetics with cantilever zirconia ceramic resin‐bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs).

Accuracy of Freehand, Static, and Dynamic Computer‐Assisted Implant Placement: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis finds that both static and dynamic computer‐assisted implant placement methods offer significantly better transfer accuracy than freehand placement. No clinically relevant accuracy differences were found between static and dynamic approaches.

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...
