Functional tooth unit, periodontal status, and association with weight change in older adults

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Literature reports that having fewer teeth is associated with reduced chewing capacity, which in turn may lead to weight changes due to diminished oral functionality. This study aims to assess the association between functional tooth units (FTU) and periodontal status and weight change among older adults participating in the Health,

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The Effect of Crown Height and Retentive Height of Abutment on the Fracture Resistance of Fatigued Monolithic Zirconia Anterior Implant Crowns—An In Vitro Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This laboratory study investigated the effect of two different retentive heights of Ti‐base abutments (3.5 and 5.5 mm) and crown heights (13 and 16 mm) on the load at failure and survival of monolithic zirconia implant‐supported crowns replacing a maxillary central incisor.
