Posterior single implants immediately loaded using one abutment at one time and temporary abutment in the posterior mandible without bone augmentation: A report on six-month outcomes data obtained from a prospective randomized controlled split-mouth clinical trial [PDF]
Background/Aim. Given that frequent manipulation of the abutment during immediate loading can have a negative impact on the surrounding peri-implant hard and soft tissues, the concept “one abutment at one time” (OAO) has been introduced and ...

Effect of the geometry of butt-joint implant-supported restorations on the fatigue life of prosthetic screws [PDF]
Statement of problem. Dental implant geometry affects the mechanical performance and fatigue behavior of butt-joint implant-supported restorations. However, failure of the implant component has been generally studied by ignoring the prosthetic screw, which is frequently the critical restoration component Purpose.

Inorganic Nanomaterials Meet the Immune System: An Intricate Balance
Metal nanomaterials influence the immune responses, such as cytokine production and T‐cell activity. Unintended immune modulation can have significant consequences while its fine‐tuning may transform the oncology care. Within this review, a critical analysis is offered regarding the nano/immune‐interaction and suggests the future research directions to

Periodontal prosthesis in contemporary dentistry
In the last 5 decades, the developments of osseointegrated titanium implants (since 1965) have led to the success of contemporary dentistry. Endosseous implant-supported restorations delivered in accordance with the traditional Branemark protocol have ...

Resonant frequency analysis of dental implants [PDF]
Dental implant stability influences the decision on the determination of the duration between implant insertion and loading, This work investigates the resonant frequency analysis by means of a numerical model. The investigation is done numerically through the determination of the eigenfrequencies and performing a steady state response analyses using a

Evaluation of dental implant stability in bone phantoms: comparison between a quantitative ultrasound technique and resonance frequency analysis [PDF]
Background Resonance frequency analyses and quantitative ultrasound methods have been suggested to assess dental implant primary stability. PurposeThe purpose of this study was to compare the results obtained using these two techniques applied to the same dental implants inserted in various bone phantoms.

Oral-3D: Reconstructing the 3D Bone Structure of Oral Cavity from 2D Panoramic X-ray [PDF]
Panoramic X-ray (PX) provides a 2D picture of the patient's mouth in a panoramic view to help dentists observe the invisible disease inside the gum. However, it provides limited 2D information compared with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), another dental imaging method that generates a 3D picture of the oral cavity but with more radiation dose and
