Finite element analysis of primary healing implants with different transmucosal designs

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to assess the response of peri‐implant tissues, both hard and soft, to mechanical stress when using a primary healing implant (PHI) with two different transmucosal profiles: concave (Model A) and divergent (Model B). The investigation also sought to observe bone modeling under post‐extraction conditions.

The role of antibiotics in preventing surgical complications in periodontology and implant dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Antibiotics are commonly prescribed in periodontal and implant surgeries, either before, during or after surgery, to prevent postoperative infection and reduce early implant failure. However, the potential benefits may be undermined by the risks of resistance and sensitization, thus requiring a strict indication for prescription.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.
