Subperiosteal peri‐implant augmented layer to correct bone dehiscence at immediate implant placement
Abstract Background The purpose of the present case report is to describe the potential of the subperiosteal peri‐implant augmented layer (SPAL) technique in peri‐implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) correction at immediate implant placement (IIP). Methods This case report describes the application of the SPAL technique in two patients undergoing IIP at ...

Customized three dimensionally printed palatal stents: A randomized controlled clinical trial
Abstract Background Soft tissue grafts are commonly used in periodontal surgery around teeth and implants. However, few studies have examined donor‐site pain through patient‐reported outcomes following soft tissue grafting. This study aimed to minimize donor‐site pain during autologous gingival grafting using a three‐dimensionally (3D)‐printed stent ...

Subperiosteal tunnel assisted graft (STAG) technique: Report of two cases
Abstract Background This case report describes the clinical application of the subperiosteal tunnel‐assisted graft (STAG) technique, a novel approach for peri‐implant phenotype modification and keratinized tissue augmentation. Although free gingival grafts remain the gold standard for increasing keratinized tissue width, their effectiveness may be ...

Establishment of a three-dimensional in vitro peri-implant bone-mucosa composite model
Background Peri-implant health depends on the complex interactions between the dental implant, surrounding soft/hard tissues and the oral microbial environment. However, existing 2D and monoculture models fail to replicate this complexity, limiting their

Simplified SPAL technique to provide adequate peri‐implant phenotype: A pilot study
Abstract Background Correction of peri‐implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) and optimization of the peri‐implant soft‐tissue phenotype are critical for long‐term peri‐implant tissues stability. A simplified, one‐stage, transmucosal variant of the subperiosteal peri‐implant augmented layer (sSPAL) technique was appraised and evaluated.

Bimanual instrument suturing technique for periodontal and implant microsurgery: A technical note
Abstract Background In the traditional suturing technique, the dominant hand (DH) holds a needle holder, and the non‐dominant hand (NH) performs manual ties without the aid of an instrument. In periodontal and implant microsurgery, finer sutures and needles, e.g., 7‐0 in International Organization for Standardization units, are used, which could be ...

A Novel Prehydrated Porcine-Derived Acellular Dermal Matrix: A Histological and Clinical Evaluation
It is well known that soft tissue quality and quantity around dental implants is of paramount importance for later peri-implant health. For this purpose, the clinical and histological outcomes of the peri-implant mucosa, following soft tissue ...
