The Randomized Shortened Dental Arch Study: Tooth Loss [PDF]
The evidence concerning the management of shortened dental arch (SDA) cases is sparse. This multi-center study was aimed at generating data on outcomes and survival rates for two common treatments, removable dental prostheses (RDP) for molar replacement ...

Induced Ankylosis of a Primary Molar for Skeletal Anchorage in the Mandible as Alternative to Mini-Implants [PDF]
Background Mesial protraction of mandibular posterior teeth requires increased anchorage to avoid undesired tooth movements. Orthodontic mini-implants have become a popular and successful way to increase skeletal anchorage in such cases.

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

The effect of platform switching on the levels of metal ion release from different implant-abutment couples [PDF]
The improved peri-implant bone response demonstrated by platform switching may be the result of reduced amounts of metal ions released to the surrounding tissues.

Reduction of Tribocorrosion Products When using the Platform-Switching Concept [PDF]
The reduced marginal bone loss observed when using the platform-switching concept may be the result of reduced amounts of tribocorrosion products released to the peri-implant tissues. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the tribocorrosion
