Abstract
This case report aims to present the successful restoration of the atrophic partially edentulous posterior mandible using custom-made subperiosteal implants. The fixed prosthesis restoration was achieved using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing technologies and 3D metal printing methods. The partially edentulous 58-year-old patient expressed a preference not to undergo bone augmentation procedures. The patient with teeth in the anterior mandible was treated with 2 separate custom-made subperiosteal implants. A custom-made implant was fabricated from sintered titanium using machined subperiosteal implants with a universal external connection. Subperiosteal implants offer several advantages over conventional bone grafting plus intraosseous implant placement techniques, such as the simple, 1-step procedure for atrophic jaws, streamlining the treatment process and reducing the overall time involved. Treatments using subperiosteal implants can be an alternative solution for individuals with severely atrophic jaws. Longer term studies in a larger sample are warranted to corroborate previous reports.

Design and optimization of a novel patient-specific subperiosteal implant additively manufactured in yttria-stabilized zirconia. Dent Mater 2024:S0109-5641(24)00213-6. [PMID: 39084954 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To design a patient-specific subperiosteal implant for a severely atrophic maxillary ridge using yttria-stabilized additively manufactured zirconia (3YSZ) and evaluate its material properties by applying topology optimization (TO) to replace bulk material with a lattice structure. MATERIALS A contrast-based segmented skull model from anonymized computed tomography data of a patient was used for the initial anatomical design of the implant for the atrophic maxillary ridge. The implant underwent finite element analysis (FEA) and TO under different occlusal load-bearing conditions. The resulting implant designs, in bulk material and lattice, were evaluated via in-silico tensile tests and 3D printed. RESULTS The workflow produced two patient-specific subperiosteal designs: a) an anatomically precise bulk implant, b) a TO lattice implant. In-silico tensile tests revealed that the Young's modulus of yttria-stabilized zirconia is 205 GPa for the bulk material and 83.3 GPa for the lattice. Maximum principal stresses in the implant were 61.14 MPa in bulk material and 278.63 MPa in lattice, both tolerable, indicating the redesigned implant can withstand occlusal forces of 125-250 N per abutment. Furthermore, TO achieved a 13.10 % mass reduction and 208.71 % increased surface area, suggesting improved osteointegration potential. SIGNIFICANCE The study demonstrates the planning and optimization of ceramic implant topology. A further iteration of the implant was successfully implanted in a patient-named use case, employing the same fabrication process and parameters.

J Clin Med 2024; 13:3582.

Abstract
Dental implants have always played an important role in dentistry and have been used to replace missing teeth since around 600 AD. They can be classified into three groups: endosteal, subperiosteal, and transosteal. Over time, different materials have been used to manufacture dental implants and these, in turn, can be divided into three groups: metals, ceramics, and polymers. Today, the most commonly used treatment for edentulism is the use of endosteal implants. However, such an approach cannot be used in patients with severe alveolar ridge atrophy and, in such cases, custom subperiosteal implants are an alternative. This review article focuses on historical developments and improvements that have been made over recent years in treatment options for patients suffering from edentulism and significant resorption of the alveolar ridge. These treatment options involve the utilization of custom subperiosteal implants. This paper looks at the historical evolution of these implants, the significance of diagnostic imaging, and the application of the contemporary methods of production, such as CAD-CAM and additive manufacturing. The research emphasizes the importance of accuracy and personalization provided by these emerging technologies that have rendered subperiosteal implants a more feasible and less intrusive alternative for patients suffering from significant bone loss.

Abstract
Implant-prosthetic rehabilitations of severely atrophic posterior maxillary sectors currently is challenging, often requiring multiple surgeries and long rehabilitation times. Recently, graftless techniques (e.g. zygomatic, pterygoid and nasal implants) have gained popularity as they offer a reduction in rehabilitation time, aligning more closely with patient preferences but may not be feasible for sectorial rehabilitations. Subperiosteal implants, suggested for full-arch rehabilitations of atrophic maxilla, haven't been explored for sectorial rehabilitations. In this report we present the case of a patient with maxillary molar edentulism, rehabilitated with a subperiosteal implant.

Abstract
The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze a series of patients who underwent full-arch rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla using additively manufactured subperiosteal implants, between August 2018 and January 2023, at the Universities of Sassari and Poznan. In total, 36 patients and 72 implants were included, with no implants lost during follow-up, and a success rate of 90.3%. Seven (9.7%) of the implants showed class 1 exposure. Bleeding on probing was detected in 10.4% of the abutments at 6 months, 7.9% at 1 year, 10% at 2 years, 7% at 3 years, and 11.4% at 4 years. No significant bone resorption under the abutments was detected during the whole observation period. Based on the findings from this study, additively manufactured subperiosteal implants could represent a safe and reliable technique for full-arch rehabilitation in patients with severe maxillary atrophy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The authors aim to share their experiences in subperiosteal implant applications in atrophic jaws, which have been practiced in their clinic for about 2 years, and evaluate the complications and clinical success of the implants. MATERIAL AND METHOD Clinical and radiologic data of 32 patients who underwent subperiosteal implantation for advanced alveolar bone loss were evaluated, but 1 patient was excluded as they smoked. Of the 31 patients included in the study, 27 were operated with the diagnosis of total tooth loss, 3 for maxillectomy and 1 for partial tooth loss. A total of 60 subperiosteal implants were placed in them. The mean follow-up period was 15 months. RESULTS During the operation, implant-bone adaptation problems were encountered in 11 patients, implant skeletal fracture in 1 patient, and loss of primary stabilization during mini-screw fixation in 2. Although there were no complications in the early postoperative period, biological and prosthetic complications occurred in the late postoperative period. Soft tissue retraction at various levels in 12 patients (only keratinized tissue retraction in 6 and mucosal retraction exceeding keratinized tissue in 6), soft tissue infection in 5 and oroantral fistula development in 1, mini-screw loosening in 3 were the biological complications that occurred. CONCLUSIONS Various complications may occur during or after the application of custom-made subperiosteal implants. However, these are manageable and can be reapplied in case of a possible implant loss, making it an important alternative, especially in atrophic jaws where endosseous dental implants cannot be applied.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyse a series of patients with posterior mandibular atrophy rehabilitated with custom-made subperiosteal implants. The study included patients with severe posterior mandibular atrophy who had undergone rehabilitation with subperiosteal implants between September 2018 and August 2022 in the Maxillofacial Surgery Operative Unit of the University Hospital of Sassari. Complications and the success rate were reviewed. Data from 30 implants placed in 17 patients were included and analysed. There were no major complications during the surgeries. The main postoperative sequela was oedema, which was reported as moderate by most patients and had completely regressed within 10 days of surgery. No partial or complete exposures, infections, or loss of the implants were detected during follow-up (average follow-up 22.5 months). Control computed tomography scans, performed at 6 months and then annually in all cases, did not show significant bone loss below the abutments, displacement of the implants, or loss or loosening of the osteosynthesis screws. Subperiosteal implants may represent a safe and reliable technique for the rehabilitation of severe atrophy of the posterior mandible. Prospective studies with a long follow-up will be needed to establish the long-term results of this type of implant-prosthetic rehabilitation.

Abstract
As an alternative to regenerative therapies, numerous authors have recently proposed bringing back subperiosteal implants. The aim of the study was to present our clinical experience with a subperiosteal jaw implant that needs minimal bone preparation and enables the rapid implantation of prosthetic teeth in edentulous, atrophic alveolar bone. The research included 36 complete or partial edentulous patients (61 subperiostal implants) over a period of 6 years. To create the patient-specific subperiostal implants design, DentalCAD 3.0 Galway software (exocad GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) was used and fabricated with a Mysint 100 (Sisma S.p.A., Piovene Rocchette, Italy) by titanium alloy powder. The results showed that only 9 of the 36 cases were successful at 6-year follow-up, while 27 cases had complications, including exposure of the metal frame (early or delayed), mobility of the device prior to the first 4-6 months, and late mobility due to recurrent infections and progressive structure exposure; 1 case failed for reasons unrelated to the device. This study indicated that the prudent application of fully customized subperiosteal jaw implants is a dependable alternative for the dental rehabilitation of atrophic edentulous cases that necessitate bone grafts for traditional fixed dental implant solutions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess implant survival and complications rate of modern subperiosteal implants (CAD designed and additively manufactured). METHODS A systematic review was conducted using three electronic databases; Medline (Pubmed), Cochrane library, and SCOPUS, following the PRISMA statement recommendations to answer the PICO question: "In patients with bone atrophy (P), do additively manufactured subperiosteal implants (I), compared to subperiosteal implants manufactured following traditional approaches (c), present satisfactory implant survival and complication rates (O)? The study was pre-registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023424211). Included articles quality was assessed using the "NIH quality assessment tools". RESULTS Thirteen articles were finally selected (5 cohort studies and 8 case series), including 227 patients (121 female / 106 male; weighted mean age 62.4 years) and 227 implants. After a weighted mean follow-up time of 21.4 months, 97.8% of implants were in function (5 failures reported), 58 implants (25.6%) presented partial exposure, 12 patients (5.3%) suffered soft tissue or persistent infection. Fracture of the interim prosthesis was reported in 8 of the155 patients (5.2%) in which the use of a provisional prosthesis was reported. A great heterogeneity was found in terms of study design and methodological aspects. For this reason, a quantitative analysis followed by meta-analysis was not possible. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this study, modern additively manufactured subperiosteal implants presented a good survival in the short-time, but a noticeable number of soft-tissue related complications were reported. Further studies are needed to assess the clinical behavior in the medium- and long-term.

Customized Subperiosteal Implants for the Rehabilitation of Atrophic Jaws: A Consensus Report and Literature Review. Biomimetics (Basel) 2024; 9:61. [PMID: 38275459 PMCID: PMC10812919 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics9010061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2023] [Revised: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: The aim was to perform a literature review on customized subperiosteal implants (CSIs) and provide clinical guidelines based on the results of an expert consensus meeting held in 2023. (2) Methods: A literature search was performed in Pubmed (MEDLINE) in July 2023, including case series and cohort studies with a minimum follow-up of 6 months that analyzed totally or partially edentulous patients treated with CSIs. Previously, an expert consensus meeting had been held in May 2023 to establish the most relevant clinical guidelines. (3) Results: Six papers (four case series and two retrospective cohort studies) were finally included in the review. Biological and mechanical complication rates ranged from 5.7% to 43.8% and from 6.3% to 20%, respectively. Thorough digital planning to ensure the passive fit of the CSI is mandatory to avoid implant failure. (4) Conclusions: CSIs are a promising treatment option for rehabilitating edentulous patients with atrophic jaws; they seem to have an excellent short-term survival rate, a low incidence of major complications, and less morbidity in comparison with complex bone grafting procedures. As the available data on the use of CSIs are very scarce, it is not possible to establish clinical recommendations based on scientific evidence.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of a Premaxillary Device: A New Type of Subperiosteal Implant to Treat Severe Atrophy of the Maxilla. Biomimetics (Basel) 2023; 8:336. [PMID: 37622941 PMCID: PMC10452205 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8040336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Extreme atrophy of the maxilla still poses challenges for clinicians. Some of the techniques used to address this issue can be complex, risky, expensive, and time consuming, often requiring skilled surgeons. While many commonly used techniques have achieved very high success rates, complications may arise in certain cases. In this context, the premaxillary device (PD) technique offers a simpler approach to reconstruct severely atrophic maxillae, aiming to avoid more complicated and risky surgical procedures. Finite element analysis (FEA) enables the evaluation of different aspects of dental implant biomechanics. Our results demonstrated that using a PD allows for an optimal distribution of stresses on the basal bone, avoiding tension peaks that can lead to bone resorption or implant failure. ANSYS® was used to perform localized finite element analysis (FEA), enabling a more precise examination of the peri-crestal area and the PD through an accurate mesh element reconstruction, which facilitated the mathematical solution of FEA. The most favorable biomechanical behavior was observed for materials such as titanium alloys, which helped to reduce stress levels on bone, implants, screws, and abutments. Additionally, stress values remained within the limits of basal bone and titanium alloy strengths. In conclusion, from a biomechanical point of view, PDs appear to be viable alternatives for rehabilitating severe atrophic maxillae.

Patient Satisfaction and Impact on Oral Health after Maxillary Rehabilitation Using a Personalized Additively Manufactured Subperiosteal Jaw Implant (AMSJI). J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13020297. [PMID: 36836531 PMCID: PMC9965586 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13020297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Subperiosteal implants (SIs) were first developed by Dahl in 1941 for oral rehabilitation in case of severe jaw atrophy. Over time, this technique was abandoned due to the high success rate of endosseous implants. The emergence of patient-specific implants and modern dentistry allowed a revisitation of this 80-year-old concept resulting in a novel "high-tech" SI implant. This study evaluates the clinical outcomes in forty patients after maxillary rehabilitation with an additively manufactured subperiosteal jaw implant (AMSJI®). The oral health impact profile-14 (OHIP-14) and numerical rating (NRS) scale were used to assess patient satisfaction and evaluate oral health. In total, fifteen men (mean age: 64.62 years, SD ± 6.75 years) and twenty-five women (mean age: 65.24 years, SD ± 6.77 years) were included, with a mean follow-up time of 917 days (SD ± 306.89 days) after AMSJI installation. Patients reported a mean OHIP-14 of 4.20 (SD ± 7.10) and a mean overall satisfaction based on the NRS of 52.25 (SD ± 4.00). Prosthetic rehabilitation was achieved in all patients. AMSJI is a valuable treatment option for patients with extreme jaw atrophy. Patients enjoy treatment benefits resulting in high patient satisfaction rates and impact on oral health.

Assaf M. Dental Implant Therapeutic Trends Among Dentists in Palestine: A Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Study. Cureus 2022; 14:e24301. [PMID: 35607572 PMCID: PMC9123343 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.24301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dental implants require good surgical and prosthetic skills with special training for successful treatment outcomes. AIM To assess the knowledge of the dental practitioners in Palestine about the therapeutic trends in implant dentistry. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present study is a cross-sectional questionnaire study among dental practitioners registered in Palestinian dental association. All practitioners who consented and completely filled the questionnaire were included in the study. All participants were asked basic demographic questions, and their attitude towards basic and advanced dental implant trends was assessed. Chi-square test was used to associate a correlation between the area of location of the clinic and responses to the questionnaire (p<0.05). RESULTS Most of the dental practitioners were aware about the basic implant therapeutic trends. However, since most of the practitioners included in the present study had limited years of experience, they referred the advanced implant procedures to senior practitioners. CONCLUSION Dental practitioners in Palestine have good knowledge on the dental implant therapeutic trends. However, they do not carry out the advanced implant procedures and usually refer them to senior practitioners. There is no variation in the knowledge of the implant therapeutic trends based on varying locations of dental clinics.
