Fixation of Auricular Prostheses by Osseointegrated Implants
Journal of Investigative Surgery, 1994 Placement of enosseous implants in the temporal bone may overcome the apparent disadvantages of skin adhesives and skinpockets for the fixation of auricular prostheses. The surgical procedure for placement of implants in the temporal bone and the results obtained in eight patients wearing implant-supported auricular prostheses are described.

The effect of smoking on the marginal bone loss around implant-supported prostheses
Tobacco Induced Diseases, 2019 Introduction Implantology has led to several changes in the planning process involved in the application of dental prostheses to diminish bone level changes along the margins of dental implants. However, the relationship between smoking and marginal bone
