Wear of Titanium Implant Platforms with Different Abutment Connections and Abutment Materials: A Pilot Study

Journal of Functional Biomaterials, 2023
The most commonly used material in dental implants and their abutments is titanium. Zirconia is a more aesthetic alternative to titanium abutments; however, it is much harder.

Bacterial microleakage at the implant-abutment interface in Morse taper implants

Brazilian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015
Aim: To evaluate the microleakage at the implant-abutment (I-A) interface of Morse tapered implants inoculated with different volumes of bacterial suspension. Methods: Morse tapered IA sets were selected and divided in two groups depending on the type of

Biomechanical behavior of three different types of internal tapered connections after cyclic and static loading tests: experimental in vitro

International Journal of Implant Dentistry, 2020
Background In the long-term success of a dental implant, the reliability and stability of the implant-abutment interface are important. Studies of maximum force of dental implants with different loading values have been used.

3D printing of a novel dental implant abutment [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, Dental Clinics, Dental Prospects, 2018
Implant-supported crowns remain an ideal treatment option for the replacement of a missing tooth. The provisionalization phase remains a critical step between surgery and final crown placement, guiding soft tissue healing and providing esthetics and function.

Peri‐implant tissue definition and registration with a 3D‐printed emergence profile former on titanium stock healing abutment: A dental technique and clinical report

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent focus has shifted toward refining the soft tissue emergence profile to enhance aesthetics, support peri‐implant health, and ensure long‐term success. Traditionally, titanium stock healing abutments or chairside‐customized abutments were used to shape peri‐implant tissues and develop the emergence profile for implant‐supported prostheses.

AI‐Driven Predictive Design and Functionalization of Three Dimensional‐Printed PEEK Implants with Tryptophan‐Enriched Alginate Hydrogel for Enhanced Biomimetic Surface Performance

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces an AI‐guided strategy to design 3D‐printed PEEK implants functionalized with a tryptophan‐enriched alginate hydrogel (TRYALPEEK). The modification improves hydrophilicity, reduces surface roughness, enhances cytocompatibility, and optimizes stress distribution. The platform offers a promising route for personalized implant design,

The lower jaw of Devonian ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii): Anatomy, relationships, and functional morphology

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Actinopterygii is a major extant vertebrate group, but limited data are available for its earliest members. Here we investigate the morphology of Devonian actinopterygians, focusing on the lower jaw. We use X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to provide comprehensive descriptions of the mandibles of 19 species, which span the whole of the Devonian
