The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1990
Synthetic materials for surgical implant devices have evolved from the early metallic systems to a variety of material combinations and composites. Current biomaterial and biomechanical properties provide relatively optimal stable bone and soft tissue interfaces and simplified restorative treatments.

DENTAL IMPLANTS AND THE GERIATRIC PATIENT
Implant Dentistry, 1997Dental care of the aging patient presents a number of problems not encountered in younger patients. Most of these problems result from tissue changes that occur during aging. Dental implants and implant-retained and/or implant-supported prostheses are viable treatment options for older patients.

Microbiology of the Dental Implant
Advances in Dental Research, 1993Longitudinal studies have shown that successful implants are colonized by a predominantly Gram-positive, facultative flora, which is established shortly after implantation. Repeated microbiological sampling in patients with clinically stable implants showed no significant shifts in the composition of this flora over five years.

The Developing Market for Dental Implants
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1993A survey of U.S. dentists showed that dental implant use increased 73 percent between 1986 and 1990. More than half of all implants are placed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons. Most dentists who place implants are not affiliated with professional implant organizations; training for implant placement varies widely.

Morphologie, 2016
A high number of patients have one or more missing tooth and it is estimated that one in four American subjects over the age of 74 have lost all their natural teeth. Many options exist to replace missing teeth but dental implants have become one of the most used biomaterial to replace one (or more) missing tooth over the last decades.

Photofunctionalization of Dental Implants
Journal of Oral Implantology, 2016After dental implants are manufactured there can be a loss of biological activity that may be reactivated by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, that is, photofunctionalization. The titanium surface is energy conditioned by UV radiation. This imparts a slight positive surface energy and hydrophilicity to the titanium dental implant surface.

An introduction to dental implants
British Dental JournalThe use of implants to replace missing teeth is now commonplace and practised by clinicians worldwide in both general and specialist practice. There is an abundance of evidence on the general success of implant treatment. As well as reviewing the history of dental implants, this narrative review will discuss the merits and successful placement of ...
