Comparing Single Tooth Implant Placement With and Without Allogenic Soft Tissue Augmentation. A Randomized Clinical Trial
CONCLUSIONS: The augmentation of alveolar mucosa on the buccal aspect of single tooth implants is associated with clinically favorable outcomes. A fully digital workflow has been validated to permit crown delivery on CAD/CAM abutments without implant impressions.PMID:38607353 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10690 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Analysis of the Association of IL-1A, IL-1B and IL-1RN Polymorphisms with Peri-implantitis in a Portuguese Population
CONCLUSIONS: The genetic polymorphisms evaluated had no influence on the occurrence of periimplantitis in the population studied. Further research into genetic variations in different populations is needed to elucidate the role of genetic factors in the onset and progression of periimplant disease.PMID:38607354 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10615 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Analysis of Satisfaction Levels in Completely Edentulous Patients Treated with Different Configurations of Implant Supported Rosthesis
Conclusion: It was found that treatment design of that implant supported fixed prosthesis on maxilla and implant overdenture on mandible provided comparable level of satisfaction with maxillomandibular fixed prosthesis for edentulous patients. Implant supported fixed prosthesis for maxilla and implant supported overdenture for mandible served as a practical alternative to satisfy patients especially in patients with mandibular atrophy who would demand extensive surgeries for maxillomandibular fixed prosthesis. Satisfaction level of implant supported overdenture was not superior to conventional prosthesis for maxilla. Previ...

The Use of a New Safe Angle Concept for Immediate Implant Placement in the Anterior Maxilla: A Cross-sectional Cone Beam Computed Tomography Study
CONCLUSIONS: The Safe Angle Concept can be used as a reliable planning tool to choose the correct IIP position in the anterior maxilla. Applying the safe angle concept will decrease the use of angled abutment for prosthetic correction.PMID:38607356 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10578 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Evaluation of Implant Impression Accuracy Using Different Trays and Techniques With a 3D Superimposition Method
CONCLUSION: Plastic and metal stock trays or conventional and 3D-printed custom trays can be used to obtain implant impressions for maxillary partially edentulous arches with similar dimensional accuracy. The five tray types and two techniques may be safely used to obtain impressions of partially edentulous maxillary arches with three implants.PMID:38607357 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10655 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Current Emerging Concepts on the Pathogenesis of Peri-implant Diseases: A Narrative Review
CONCLUSION: The current evidence, not only in the dental literature, opens new avenues for a more complex interpretation of the etiopathogenetic factors involved in peri-implant diseases. A better understanding of various factors related to the host response, including dysbiosis mechanisms associated with changes in microbiota composition, is necessary for a more precise physiopathological characterization of these diseases.PMID:38607361 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10723 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

One-Stage Lateral Sinus Floor Elevation Using Different Grafts: A Systematic Review of Controlled Clinical Trials
CONCLUSION: All the assessed grafts are viable options for the intervention addressed. The use of some material is justified to maintain the sinus volume and allow bone formation in the apical site of implants under the sinus membrane. Longer chair time and the morbidity of the donor site should be considered when choosing autogenous bone. Synthetic biphasic materials can be selected for this intervention due to superior values of %BIC when compared to DBB.PMID:38607362 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10600 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Paired-Related Homeobox 1-Positive Cells Are Needed for Osseointegration
CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that paired-related homeobox 1-positive cells contribute to the osseointegration process under stress stimulation and semaphorin 3C may play a critical role in paired-related homeobox 1- positive cell-driven osteogenesis. Paired-related homeobox 1 could significantly promote MC3T3-E1 cell migration.PMID:38498783 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10852 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Establishing Clinically Acceptable PES/WES Threshold for Single- Tooth Implant Restoration
CONCLUSIONS: The PES/WES score of 12 indicates the clinically acceptable threshold, while the score of 17 indicates the detectable threshold for an exceptional esthetic outcome. Laypeople tend to accept the implant despite its detectability. For both laypeople and dentists, root convexity/soft tissue color and texture are the most focused criteria of PES/WES, followed by overall white deficiencies that remain influential. Compared to laypeople, dentists tend to have a higher ability to detect STIR.PMID:38498784 (Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants)

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSingle implants are a predictable treatment, and immediate loading can be an option with acceptable survival rates. Clinical and patient-centered outcomes comparing immediate and delayed protocol of single implants are unclear. The purpose of this study was to assess complications, satisfaction, and quality of life of patients rehabilitated with delayed and immediate loading single crowns.

The Influence of a Single Infrapositioned Anterior Ankylosed Tooth or Implant Supported Restoration In Smile Attractiveness
CONCLUSIONS: Even a minor infraposition of a single maxillary anterior ankylosed tooth or implant supported restoration, can reduce the perceived attractiveness of the face. Infraposition in canine's area can be better tolerated in a medium, compared to a high smile line. In patients with a high smile line prosthetic intervention in order to restore the incisal edge of an infrapositioned tooth, without to harmonize the gingival contour, can be beneficial for the lateral incisor, ineffective for the central incisor and unfavorable for the canine.PMID:38498787 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10749 (Source: International Journal of Oral ...
