Rationale for Dental Implants [PDF]
British Dental Journal, 2006 The clinical replacement of lost natural teeth by osseointegrated implants has represented one of the most significant advances in restorative dentistry. Two decades ago, a majority of dentists were sceptical about implants and rejected them entirely. Today it is rare to find a practitioner who does not work with dental implants or who is not actively ...

Nanotechnology and Dental Implants
International Journal of Biomaterials, 2010 The long-term clinical success of dental implants is related to their early osseointegration. This paper reviews the different steps of the interactions between biological fluids, cells, tissues, and surfaces of implants. Immediately following implantation, implants are in contact with proteins and platelets from blood.

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2015 Dental implants restore function to near normal in partially or completely edentulous patients. A root-form implant is the most frequently used type of dental implant today. The basis for dental implants is osseointegration, in which osteoblasts grow and directly integrate with the surface of titanium posts surgically embedded into the jaw.

Dental Implant Infections [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1997 Dental implants provide a restorative tool to support crowns, bridge abutments, and removable dentures. Osseointegrated implants are titanium posts that are surgically implanted in alveolar bone. A tight immobile bond (osseointegration) forms between bone and titanium, and prosthetic and restorative fixtures are attached to the implants.

National Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery, 2017 Systematic reviews of literature over the period between 2008 and 2017 are discussed regarding clinical evidence for the factors affecting survival and failure of dental implants. The factors addressed include publication bias, tooth location, insertion torque, collar design, implant-abutment connection design, implant length, implant width, bone ...

Release of VEGF from dental implant improves osteogenetic process: Preliminary in vitro tests [PDF]
, 2017 INTRODUCTION: During osseointegration process, the presence of an inflammatory event could negatively influence the proper osteogenetic ability of the implant surface.
