Li Z, Yang C, Wang J, Zheng K, Luo W. The application of CGF combined with GBR in alveolar bone increment for patients with anxiety disorder: A rare case report and literature review. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e35905. [PMID: 37960737 PMCID: PMC10637472 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000035905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), one of the commonly used anti-anxiety drugs, may have impacts on bone metabolism and potentially lead to drug-induced osteoporosis. The traditional approach of oral implantation in individuals with both anxiety disorder and drug-induced osteoporosis poses a significant challenge. To address this issue, concentrated growth factor (CGF) has been utilized in patients undergoing concurrent alveolar ridge augmentation during oral implantation, resulting in favorable clinical outcomes. Consequently, combining CGF with guided bone regeneration (GBR) in alveolar bone increment may represent a promising new surgical approach for such patients. In this report, we present a case study of a 25-year-old male with anxiety disorder and drug-induced osteoporosis, in who CGF combined with GBR was employed in alveolar bone increment. PATIENT CONCERNS This article reports the case of a 25-year-old male who underwent cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) due to the absence of his right lower second molar for a period of six months. The CBCT scan revealed significant bone defects, which were attributed to the tooth loss and prolonged use of anti-anxiety drugs. Consequently, the patient sought medical assistance from our department. DIAGNOSES Based on the patient's self-report, he was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. Additionally, the CBCT scan confirmed the loss of the right mandibular second molar and revealed the presence of dental irregularity and an alveolar bone defect. INTERVENTIONS During the patient's course of treatment with anti-anxiety medication, a combination of CGF and GBR was employed for the simultaneous implantation of the missing right mandibular second molar, along with bone augmentation. OUTCOMES The patient had a follow-up visit two weeks after the surgical procedure, and the wound in the operation area had healed satisfactorily. Six months later, CBCT images revealed excellent osseointegration. The buccal and lingual width of the alveolar bone measured 6.95mm, which was an increase of 1.35mm compared to the pre-implantation stage. LESSONS This article presents a case study in which CGF combined with GBR were utilized to address alveolar bone augmentation during the implantation phase in patients taking anti-anxiety medication. The results demonstrated that CGF combined with GBR, as a cutting-edge platelet concentrate technique, could effectively stimulate bone tissue proliferation in individuals who have been on long-term anti-anxiety medication, specifically in oral implant areas. This approach can help prevent poor osseointegration, promote higher osseointegration rates, and facilitate wound healing.

Guided Bone Regeneration with Concentrated Growth Factor Enriched Bone Graft Matrix (Sticky Bone) vs. Bone-Shell Technique in Horizontal Ridge Augmentation: A Retrospective Study. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10173953. [PMID: 34501399 PMCID: PMC8432031 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10173953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2021] [Revised: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 08/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to compare clinical results of two different horizontal ridge augmentation techniques: guided bone regeneration with sticky bone (SB) and the bone-shell technique (BS). Methods: Records of patients who underwent horizontal ridge augmentation with SB (test) and BS (control) were screened for inclusion. Pre-operative and 6-month post-operative ridge widths were measured on cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) and compared. Post-operative complications and implant survival rate were recorded. Results: Eighty consecutive patients were included in the present study. Post-operative complications (flap dehiscence, and graft infection) occurred in ten patients, who dropped out from the study (12.5% complication rate). Stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant inverse correlation between the occurrence of post-operative complications and ridge width (p = 0.025). Seventy patients (35 test; 35 control) with a total of 127 implants were included in the final analysis. Mean ridge width gain was 3.7 ± 1.2 mm in the test and 3.7 ± 1.1 mm in the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups. No implant failure was recorded, with a mean follow-up of 42.7 ± 16.0 months after functional loading. Conclusions: SB and BS showed comparable clinical outcomes in horizontal ridge augmentation, resulting in sufficient crestal width increase to allow implant placement in an adequate bone envelope.

Accuracy of static computer-assisted implant placement in long span edentulous area by novice implant clinicians: A cross-sectional in vitro study comparing fully-guided, pilot-guided, and freehand implant placement protocols. Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2021; 23:361-372. [PMID: 33817957 DOI: 10.1111/cid.12998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To ensure accurate implant placement, surgical guides are used to control the steps of implant placement surgery. PURPOSE Evaluation of the accuracy of implant placement in long span edentulous area by novice implant clinicians according to fully-guided (FG), pilot-guided (PG), and freehand (FH) placement protocols. MATERIALS AND METHODS Maxillary surgical models with four missing teeth from the right first canine to the first molar were produced by 3-dimensional printing. Fourteen clinicians new to implant dentistry participated in the study, and each one of them inserted one canine and one molar implant for every implant placement protocol. All implant placement steps were completed in phantom heads to simulate the clinical situation. To evaluate the accuracy, the implant vertical, horizontal platform, horizontal apex, angle, and interimplant distance deviations from the planned positions were calculated. RESULTS With the exception of vertical deviation, the FG placement was clearly more accurate than the PG and FH placements for all the variables for canine and molar implants. The PG placement was significantly more accurate than the FH placement for the horizontal platform and apex deviations, and interimplant distance deviation. The FG placement did not show a significant impact of the location of the implant, or the horizontal deviations of the platform or the apex. The PG and FH placements showed increased deviation at the canine implant than the molar implant, and at the apex of the implants than the platform of the implants. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this in vitro study, novice clinicians achieved a significantly more accurate implant position with FG placement, followed by PG and FH placements respectively. Therefore, a form of guided surgery is beneficial for novice clinicians.

J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9123943. [PMID: 33291369 PMCID: PMC7761997 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9123943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2020] [Revised: 11/27/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
This retrospective study evaluated the survival rate of short, sandblasted acid-etched surfaced implants with 6 and 8 mm lengths with at least 120 days of follow-up. Data concerning patient, implant and surgery characteristics were retrieved from clinical records. Sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA)-surfaced tissue-level 6 mm (TL6) or 8 mm (TL8) implants or bone-level tapered 8 mm (BLT8) implants were used. Absolute and relative frequency distributions were calculated for qualitative variables and mean values and standard deviations for quantitative variables. A Cox regression model was performed to verify whether type, length and/or width influence the implant survival. The cumulative implant survival rate was assessed by time-to-event analyses (Kaplan–Meier estimator). In all, 513 patients with a mean age of 58.00 ± 12.44 years received 1008 dental implants with a mean follow-up of 21.57 ± 10.77 months. Most implants (78.17%) presented a 4.1 mm diameter, and the most frequent indication was a partially edentulous arch (44.15%). The most frequent locations were the posterior mandible (53.97%) and the posterior maxilla (31.55%). No significant differences were found in survival rates between groups of type, length and width of implant with the cumulative rate being 97.7% ± 0.5%. Within the limitations of this study, the evaluated short implants are a predictable option with high survival rates during the follow-up without statistical differences between the appraised types, lengths and widths.

The influence of prosthetic crown height and implant-abutment connection design selection on the long-term implant-abutment stability: A laboratory study. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2020; 113:104095. [PMID: 33017717 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2020.104095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2020] [Revised: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Long-term edentulism associated with vertical loss of alveolar bone might lead to increased suprastructure height. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of suprastructure height on the stability of the implant-abutment connection by investigating the stability of two different two-piece titanium implants with internal hexagonal or conical connections under simulated oral loading conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 48 specimens were used. The specimens were divided into 2 groups according to their implant-abutment connection (group H: internal hex connection, group C: conical connection). Each group was further divided into 3 groups according to the applied suprastructure height (H1; C1: 10 mm, H2; C2: 14 mm and H3; C3: 18 mm) (n = 8). All specimens were subjected to a cyclic loading force of 98 N for 5 million simulated chewing cycles. Then, all implants that survived the chewing simulation were quasi-statically loaded until failure. The monotonic-failure load and monotonic-bending moment at failure were evaluated. RESULTS After the dynamic chewing loading, the implants showed the following survival rates: group H: 95.8%; group C: 100%. The implant suprastructures revealed survival rates of 100% and 91.5% for groups H and C, respectively. After the artificial chewing simulation of 5 million cycles, some implants in the groups with higher crowns (14 mm and 18 mm) showed crack formation and plastic deformations under the light microscope. Regarding monotonic-failure load, implants with shorter suprastructures (10 mm) revealed higher resistance to failure (C1: 1496 and H1: 1201 N) than longer suprastructures (18 mm) (C3: 465 and H3: 585 N) which was expected. The mean monotonic-bending moment values at failure ranged from 400.7 Ncm to 673.3 Ncm. CONCLUSION Implant-supported restorations with increased crown height are considered stable for an extended time period (5 million cycles which equals approximately 20 years clinical service) and a reliable treatment option in case of increased inter-arch distance. There was no difference in stability of the two internal connections. Nevertheless, the integrity of implant components might be impaired when crowns with increased heights are applied.

Prospective, Clinical Pilot Study with Eleven 4-Mm Extra-Short Implants Splinted to Longer Implants for Posterior Maxilla Rehabilitation. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9020357. [PMID: 32012979 PMCID: PMC7074081 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9020357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2019] [Revised: 01/17/2020] [Accepted: 01/26/2020] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In many clinical situations, rehabilitation with implants in the posterior maxillary region is complicated by limited bone availability. In this context, the use of 4 mm long implants (known as extra-short implants) may be used thanks to the concept of osseointegration enhancement. It has been demonstrated that short implants offer an alternative to the regeneration procedures involved in placing longer implants in areas where bone height is compromised. This prospective pilot study tested a treatment protocol in which 11 extra-short (4 mm) implants were splinted to 11 mesially placed longer (8 mm) implants in the posterior maxillary regions of partially edentulous patients, without using supplementary bone regeneration procedures. Eleven patients were included in this single cohort study. The clinical performance of the extra-short implants was assessed during a two-year follow-up period, obtaining a 100% survival rate and mean bone loss of 0.3 mm. Implant stability measured by resonance frequency analysis (RFA) at the time of placement was 54.9 ± 4.9, increasing to 77.0 ± 2.6 at 24 months. The study demonstrated the gradual consolidation of osseointegration in bone of less-than-ideal quality in the posterior maxillary region. The results obtained show that a partially edentulous maxilla with reduced bone height may be rehabilitated by using an extra-short implant splinted to a mesial implant of 8mm length or longer. Despite the small sample size, this pilot study observed that extra-short implants achieved adequate bone stability and clinical performance after a 24-month follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE Short implants are a minimally invasive alternative in the management of alveolar bone atrophy. This study aimed to assess the influence of the surgical approach (1-stage vs 2-stage) on the 15-year survival and marginal bone loss of short implants in a fixed complete denture. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective clinical study was conducted in a single private dental clinic that included short implants placed between January 2001 and December 2002. RESULTS Forty-one short implants supported 18 screw-retained complete dentures. The mean follow-up time was 15 ± 3 years. The surgical approach (1-stage vs 2-stage) did not significantly affect implant survival and marginal bone loss. The implant survival rate was 90.2%. CONCLUSIONS Short dental implants could be predictably indicated to support fixed complete dentures. The implants could be placed through a 1- or 2-stage surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this retrospective case study was to evaluate implant placement accuracy in inexperienced clinicians with use of a surgical guide template vs the freehand method for preoperatively planned implant position. STUDY DESIGN Oral implant therapy was performed by inexperienced dental practitioners (<20 implants placed) on eligible patients after cone beam computer tomography (CBCT)-based software planning. Two patients' groups were formed according to the surgical technique: guided and freehand implant placement. The casts used for the fabrication of reconstructions were scanned by using a 3-dimensional (3D) laser scanner, the implant positions were superimposed with preoperative planning data, and the 3D deviations were calculated. RESULTS Twenty adult patients were included in this retrospective study (20 guided and 21 freehand implant placements). Mean calculated deviations with use of a surgical guide template were significantly lower compared with those of the freehand method with regard to angulation (P = .002), apical position (P = .002), and basal position (P = .012). No significant differences in implant placement accuracy were detected between the groups according to the implant position (premolars/molars; upper jaw/lower jaw) (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Computer-aided planning and the use of surgical guides in accordance with CBCT images may help inexperienced clinicians to place implants with high accuracy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In edentulous patients the form and size of the maxillary sinus vary greatly. Therefore sinus floor augmentation is a standard procedure for implantological purposes. As the sinus membrane cannot be characterized as periosteum, various augmentation materials are used. HYPOTHESIS an artificially generated space underneath the sinus membrane in the floor of the sinus will lead to spontaneous callus forming and a stable bony consolidation without augmentation material. METHODS Ten edentulous patients with highly atrophic maxillae were selected. Augmentation of the sinus floor was carried out in a split-mouth study design: On one side a combination of autogenous and xenogenous bone was used, and on the contralateral side a sinus membrane elevation was performed without using any substitutes. After a 6-month interval bone specimens from the test regions were harvested during implant placement. RESULTS Clear histological evidence of new bone formation was found in all human bone specimens. An active de-novo bone formation process could be proven by the presence of Haversian systems (osteons) displaying osteoblastic and osteoclastic activity. CONCLUSION In the maxillary sinus of edentulous patients a spontaneous callus-derived de-novo bone formation is possible by elevating the sinus membrane without using augmentation materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short implants have been presented as an option for posterior rehabilitation in cases of poor bone height. PURPOSE To compare the survival rate of short implants and standard implants when used in posterior single crowns, in addition to reporting marginal bone loss, prosthetic failures, and surgical complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic search (PubMed, LILACS, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science) and hand search were performed to identify all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials (CCTs) that evaluated both short and standard implants in posterior single crowns. RESULTS Out of 345 articles identified by both electronic and hand search, four studies were selected (one CCT and three RCTs). The meta-analysis for the survival rate showed that there was no significant difference between the short implants and the standard ones (P = 1.00; RR:1.00; CI:0.97-1.03) performed with three RCTs for a one-year follow-up. The mean marginal bone loss ranged from 0.1 mm to 0.54 mm. Only one study reported the presence of prosthetic failures and surgical complications. CONCLUSIONS The survival rate of short implants was similar to the standard ones in posterior single crowns, for the one-year follow-up period. They also presented low surgical complications, prosthetic failures and marginal bone loss, being a predictable treatment for single rehabilitation in posterior tooth loss.

Abstract
PURPOSE The preservation of peri-implant bone is one requirement for long-term success of dental implants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of subcrestal placement on the crestal bone level of immediate versus delayed placed implants after loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, data of 159 patients who received 330 implants was analyzed. Implants were placed subcrestally, crestally or supracrestally into fresh sockets or healed sites. Vertical bone level height was assessed radiographically and implants were followed up annually. The influence of patient and implant related risk factors for peri-implant bone loss was evaluated using a linear mixed model. RESULTS Depth of implant placement was significantly correlated with peri-implant bone loss (P = 0.001, 95% CI). Least effective loss of crestal bone was determined when implants were placed between 1 mm and 1.99 mm subcrestally. Smoking significantly enhanced the risk of peri-implant bone loss (P = 0.04, 95% CI). Immediate implant placement was not positively correlated with peri-implant bone loss (P = 0.51, 95% CI). CONCLUSION Within the limits of this study, implant placement 1.08 mm subcrestally may be recommendable in order to avoid supracrestal expositions of platform-switched titanium implants over time.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to report on 1-year outcomes of fixed full-arch fiber-reinforced resin bridges on short implants in atrophic maxillary jaws. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective cohort study was designed and patients with severely atrophic maxillas, corresponding to Cawood and Howell Classes V and VI, were included. Mesial and distal peri-implant bone levels were assessed on panoramic radiographs that were taken at the time of implant insertion (baseline) and during follow-up visits. RESULTS Eighteen patients with 72 implants inserted in atrophic maxillary jaws were included in this study. All patients had a follow-up visit 1 year after loading. The cumulative 1-year patient-based implant survival rate was 88.8%, and the cumulative 1-year implant-based survival rate was 97.2%. The marginal bone level (MBL) was -0.5 ± 0.5 mm at the time of loading (n = 72) and -0.8 ± 0.6 mm (n = 72) after 1 year. The MBL depended substantially on the depth at the time of insertion. No prosthetic failure, such as chipping or fracture, occurred within the first year of loading. CONCLUSION Prosthetic rehabilitation of atrophic maxillas with prostheses supported by 4 4.0- × 5.0-mm or 3.0- × 8.0-mm implants seems to be a viable and cost-effective treatment option in the short-term.

Mechanical Characterisation and Biomechanical and Biological Behaviours of Ti-Zr Binary-Alloy Dental Implants. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2017; 2017:2785863. [PMID: 29318142 PMCID: PMC5727844 DOI: 10.1155/2017/2785863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2017] [Revised: 10/10/2017] [Accepted: 10/26/2017] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The objective of the study is to characterise the mechanical properties of Ti-15Zr binary alloy dental implants and to describe their biomechanical behaviour as well as their osseointegration capacity compared with the conventional Ti-6Al-4V (TAV) alloy implants. The mechanical properties of Ti-15Zr binary alloy were characterised using Roxolid© implants (Straumann, Basel, Switzerland) via ultrasound. Their biomechanical behaviour was described via finite element analysis. Their osseointegration capacity was compared via an in vivo study performed on 12 adult rabbits. Young's modulus of the Roxolid© implant was around 103 GPa, and the Poisson coefficient was around 0.33. There were no significant differences in terms of Von Mises stress values at the implant and bone level between both alloys. Regarding deformation, the highest value was observed for Ti-15Zr implant, and the lowest value was observed for the cortical bone surrounding TAV implant, with no deformation differences at the bone level between both alloys. Histological analysis of the implants inserted in rabbits demonstrated higher BIC percentage for Ti-15Zr implants at 3 and 6 weeks. Ti-15Zr alloy showed elastic properties and biomechanical behaviours similar to TAV alloy, although Ti-15Zr implant had a greater BIC percentage after 3 and 6 weeks of osseointegration.

The role of immediate provisional restorations on implants with a hydrophilic surface: A randomised, single-blind controlled clinical trial. Clin Oral Implants Res 2017; 29:55-66. [PMID: 28833613 DOI: 10.1111/clr.13038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 07/02/2017] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the radiographic bone changes, clinical parameters and aesthetic outcomes of immediately provisionalised and conventionally restored implants at 12- and 24-months post-implant placement. MATERIAL AND METHODS In 24 patients, 24 bone level implants with a hydrophilic (SLActive) surface were placed in healed sites and they were either immediately provisionalised with a non-occluding temporary crown (test group) or left without a crown (control group). In both groups, the definitive restoration was placed 16 weeks after implant placement. Clinical and radiographic parameters were calculated at 12- and 24-months post-implant placement, together with implant success/survival rates according to three different sets of criteria. The aesthetic outcome was evaluated through the Papilla Fill Index and the Pink Aesthetic Score. RESULTS The mean marginal bone loss at 1 year was -0.73 mm (SD 0.83 mm) in the test group and -0.22 mm (SD 0.46 mm) in the control group (p > .05). Whilst 100% survival rate and positive aesthetic outcomes were recorded in both groups, three patients of the test group did not fulfil all success criteria. CONCLUSIONS Immediate provisionalisation may represent a viable option for the replacement of single missing teeth, with radiographic, clinical and aesthetic results comparable to those of conventionally loaded implants at 2 years of follow-up.
