Strasding M, Marchand L, Merino E, Zarauz C, Pitta J. Material and abutment selection for CAD/CAM implant-supported fixed dental prostheses in partially edentulous patients - A narrative review. Clin Oral Implants Res 2024. [PMID: 38864592 DOI: 10.1111/clr.14315] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
Restorative material selection has become increasingly challenging due to the speed of new developments in the field of dental material science. The present narrative review gives an overview of the current indications for implant abutments and restoration materials for provisional and definitive implant-supported fixed dental prostheses in partially edentulous patients. For single implant restorations, titanium base abutments for crowns are suggested as an alternative to the conventional stock- and customized abutments made out of metal or zirconia. They combine the mechanical stability of a metallic connection with the esthetic potential of ceramics. For multiple-unit restorations, conical titanium bases especially designed for bridges are recommended, to compensate for deviating implant insertion axes and angulations. Even though titanium base abutments with different geometries and heights are available, certain clinical scenarios still benefit from customized titanium abutments. Indications for the definitive material in fixed implant restorations depend on the region of tooth replacement. In the posterior (not esthetically critical) zone, ceramics such as zirconia (3-5-Ymol%) and lithium-disilicate are recommended to be used in a monolithic fashion. In the anterior sector, ceramic restorations may be buccally micro-veneered for an optimal esthetic appearance. Lithium-disilicate is only recommended for single-crowns, while zirconia (3-5-Ymol%) is also recommended for multiple-unit and cantilever restorations. Attention must be given to the specific mechanical properties of different types of zirconia, as some feature reduced mechanical strengths and are therefore not indicated for all regions and restoration span lengths. Metal-ceramics remain an option, especially for cantilever restorations.

Abstract
Dental implants are a regular feature in daily clinical practice and there is a need to undertake routine assessment and maintenance of implants and their restorations on par with that provided for natural teeth. Occlusal checks form an important part of the maintenance regime for preserving the integrity of implants, their restorations, and health of the peri-implant tissues. Implant restorations are subjected to the full characteristics and magnitude of occlusal forces, including those associated with parafunction. Compared with the periodontal ligament around teeth, the biophysical response to occlusal forces of osseointegration is different through the more rigid link of implant to bone and reduced proprioception. Risks attributable to occlusal forces primarily affect implant restorations and they are elevated in the presence of bruxism. The occlusal guidelines recommended by the literature are aimed at reducing these risks and regular assessment and maintenance of the occlusion is essential. A four-step sequence is presented to ensure that the annual occlusal checks include the patient's input and evaluation of restoration integrity, occlusal scheme, additional protection, and spatial changes.

Screw-retained ceramic-veneered/monolithic zirconia partial implant-supported fixed dental prostheses: A 5 to 10-year retrospective study on survival and complications. J Prosthodont 2024; 33:221-230. [PMID: 37302066 DOI: 10.1111/jopr.13723] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the clinical performance of screw-retained, ceramic-veneered, monolithic zirconia partial implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (ISFDP) over 5-10 years and to evaluate implant- and prosthesis-related factors influencing treatment failure and complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS Partially edentulous patients treated with screw-retained all-ceramic ISFDPs with 2-4 prosthetic units with a documented follow-up of ≥5 years after implant loading were included in this retrospective study. The outcomes analyzed included implant/prosthesis failure and biological/technical complications. Possible risk factors were identified using the mixed effects Cox regression analysis. RESULTS A screened sample of 171 participants with 208 prostheses (95% of the restorations were splinted crowns without a pontic) supported by 451 dental implants were enrolled in this study. The mean follow-up duration after prosthesis delivery was 82.4 ±17.2 months. By the end of the follow-up period, 431 (95.57%) of the 451 implants remained functional at the implant level. At the prosthesis level, 185 (88.94%) of the 208 partial ISFDPs remained functional. Biological complications were observed in 67 implants (14.86%), and technical complications were observed in 62 ISFDPs (29.81%). Analysis revealed only emergence profiles (over-contoured) as a significant risk factor for implant failure (P<0.001) and biological complications (P<0.001). Full-coverage ceramic-veneered zirconia prostheses had a significantly greater chance of chipping (P<0.001) compared with buccal-ceramic-veneered or monolithic zirconia prostheses. CONCLUSIONS Screw-retained ceramic-veneered, monolithic partial ISFDPs have a favorable long-term survival rate. Over-contoured emergence profile is a significant risk factor associated with implant failure and biological complications. Buccal-ceramic-veneered and monolithic zirconia partial ISFDPs lower the initial prevalence of chipping compared with a full-coverage veneered design.

Long-term clinical performance of short 6-mm implants supporting single crowns in the posterior region: A 10-year cohort study. Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2024; 26:158-169. [PMID: 37882144 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/27/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Long-term clinical success of non-splinted, posterior, and short implants still is unclear. This prospective cohort study reports the 10-year follow-up of 6-mm implants supporting single crowns in the posterior region, and patient-reported outcomes. METHODS Baseline sample comprised 20 patients treated with 46 screw-retained crowns supported by 6-mm implants with moderately rough implant surface. Participants were recalled for a 10-year clinical follow-up to assess survival rates, biologic and mechanic conditions, quality of life (OHIP-14), and treatment satisfaction. Data were collected with clinical-radiographic exams and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. RESULTS Fourteen patients with 35 implant-crown units were examined after 127.6 ± 11.8 months. For the entire cohort period, 7/46 implants were lost (survival estimate: 77.7% at 133 months), and mechanic complications occurred in 14/46 units (survival estimate: 66.4% at 116 months). In the Cox models, "maximum occlusal force" had a significant effect for implant loss (p = 0.038) and for prosthetic screw loosening (p = 0.038); "arch" and "bruxism" were not significant. Peri-implant bone loss was 0.4 ± 0.6 mm at 10 years. For peri-implant bone level, "crown-to-implant ratio" (p < 0.001) and "time" (p = 0.001) were significant. Bone levels differed from baseline to 12, 48, and 120 months. Satisfaction VAS was 94.0 ± 7.9 mm and OHIP-14 was 2.3 ± 2.2. CONCLUSION Single screw-retained crowns supported by 6-mm implants have an acceptable long-term clinical performance, with stable peri-implant bone levels after 10 years of function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Overload from bruxism may affect survival of dental implants. OBJECTIVES To evaluate implant failure and marginal bone loss (MBL) in patients presenting with probable bruxism compared to non-bruxers. The study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021238397). METHODS An electronic search September 2022 in PubMed/Medline, Web of Science and Science Direct was combined with a hand search. Two independent reviewers carried out abstract screening, full-text assessment, quality assessment (National Institutes of Health tool) and data extraction. Only studies that provided information on self-report and clinical examination needed for the diagnosis of at least 'probable' bruxism were included. A pairwise random-effect meta-analysis was carried out. RESULTS In total 1338 studies were identified, and after screening and full-text assessment 27 studies that presented data on 2105 implants in probable bruxers and 10 264 implants in non-bruxers were included, with 138 and 352 implant failures in respective groups. the meta-analysis showed that implants placed in probable bruxers had a higher risk of failure than in non-bruxers (OR 2.189; 95% CI 1.337, 3.583, p = .002). A meta-regression showed that follow-up time did not affect this OR. Eighteen studies provided general data on MBL but did not report results separated between bruxers and non-bruxers. Therefore, an analysis of MBL was not possible. CONCLUSION The results of the present systematic review show that implants placed in probable bruxers present a significantly higher risk of failure than implants placed in non-bruxers. This should be considered in treatment planning and management of implant patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different oral appliances (OAs) have been proposed to control sleep bruxism (SB) detrimental effects on the stomatognathic system. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of different OAs on SB activity and masticatory muscle activity (sMMA) measured by EMG. METHODS This longitudinal cohort study was conducted on 51 patients (21 M, 30 F, mean age 26,5 ± 3,5) suffering from SB diagnosed with a validated portable EMG-ECG holter and wearing different OAs: occlusal splints, functional appliance with metallic bites and clear aligners followed after 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months from delivery. A control group of 16 non-treated SB patients (6 M, 10 F mean age 27,1 ± 1,4) was used as a reference. A multiple regression analysis was performed to estimate the differences between groups. The level of significance was set as P value <0,05. RESULTS Occlusal splint reduced sleep bruxism index after 1 week, 3, 6 and 12 months from delivery while functional appliance only after 12 months. Occlusal splints reduced general phasic contractions only in the first week and sleep bruxism-related phasic contractions at 1 week, 3 and 6 months after delivery with no significant reductions after 12 months. Patients wearing clear aligners showed a reduction in general tonic contractions after 6 and 12 months. CONCLUSION Resin and metal bites can reduce sleep bruxism index, while resin bites can reduce sleep bruxism-related phasic contractions. Clear aligners do not influence sleep bruxism index but can reduce tonic contractions.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the clinical outcomes of zirconia dental implants based on an updated systematic literature review. METHODS An electronic search was performed in three databases, last updated in June 2023, supplemented by hand searching. The eligibility criteria were clinical studies reporting patients rehabilitated with zirconia implants. The cumulative survival rate (CSR) of implants was calculated. A meta-analysis for marginal bone loss (MBL) under different follow-up times and a meta-regression assessing the relationship between mean MBL and follow-up were done. RESULTS Twenty-five studies were included (4017 implants, 2083 patients). Seven studies had follow-up longer than 60 months. 172 implants failed, after a mean of 12.0 ± 16.1 months (min-max 0.3-86.0), of which 47 early failures, and 26 due to implant fracture, the majority in narrow-diameter implants. The 10-year CSR was 95.1%. Implants with coronal part prepared by drills presented statistically significant lower survival than non-prepared implants (p < 0.001). Two-piece implants presented lower survival than one-piece implants (p = 0.017). Implants discontinued from the market presented lower survival than the commercially available ones (p < 0.001). The difference in survival was not significant between implants in maxilla and mandible (p = 0.637). The mean MBL fluctuated between 0.632 and 2.060 mm over long periods of observation (up until 132 months). There was an estimated MBL increase of 0.005 mm per additional month of follow-up. CONCLUSION Zirconia implants present high 10-year CSR and short-term low MBL. The review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022342055). CLINICAL RELEVANCE The clinical outcomes observed for zirconia dental implants are very promising, although these have not yet been extensively studied as titanium alloy implants.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the influence of cantilever prosthetic arm on the marginal bone loss (MBL) over time around dental implants supporting short fixed partial dentures (FPDs), in a record-based retrospective study. METHODS All cases of 3-unit implant-supported FPDs, supported by 2-3 implants, from the database of cases treated at one specialist clinic were considered for inclusion. Only implants with a minimum of 36 months of radiological follow-up were considered. Univariate linear regression models were used to compare MBL over time between 12 clinical covariates, after which a linear mixed-effects model was built. RESULTS One-hundred-thirty-nine patients (64 men, 75 women) with 164 3-unit implant-supported FPDs (333 implants supporting non-cantilevered FPDs, 94 supporting cantilevered FPDs) were included in the study. The patients were followed up clinically and radiographically for a mean of 154.1 ± 78.0 (min-max, 37.3-364.6) and 132.9 ± 77.3 months (min-max, 36.8-329.9), respectively. The total number of marginal bone level double measurements (mesial and distal sides of each implant) was 2909. FPDs with cantilever presented an estimated greater MBL over time compared to FPDs without cantilever. Bruxism, sex (women), implant (modified) surface, and (poor) bone quality were also associated with higher MBL over time. CONCLUSIONS The use of a cantilever extension is suggested to negatively affect the bone marginal level over time around implants supporting 3-unit FPDs. Due to the small difference of the estimated MBL over long periods of follow-up between the groups, it is a matter of debate if the observed negative effect may be of clinical significance.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Although high survival rates of implant-supported fixed partial dentures (ISFPDs) have been reported, evidence for complications, failures, and factors that interfere with their longevity is lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this scoping review was to review the literature to investigate the most common failures and complications of ISFPDs. MATERIAL AND METHODS This review followed the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses scoping review (PRISMA ScR) guidelines, and the methodology was registered on the open science framework (osf.io/5xqkp). An electronic search was conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science databases and nonpeer-reviewed literature for articles published from 2013 to January 2023. Studies that evaluated the clinical performance of ISFPDs with at least 1 year of follow-up and described the concepts of failure and success were included. RESULTS The search yielded 5695 studies. Fourteen articles were included in this review for data extraction. Veneering porcelain fracture, screw fracture, and implant loss were the most common failures reported. Technical complications mainly involved screw loosening, loss of retention, and wear of the screw-access restoration. CONCLUSIONS Bruxism, mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficient, unsatisfactory support of the framework, choice of cement, shape of the titanium abutments, and extended length of the cantilever were associated with the longevity of the ISFPD. Despite the high survival rate of ISFPDs, data must be carefully interpreted because of the variation in the materials used to manufacture the ISFPD and the heterogeneity of the studies in this review.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To delineate and discuss the literature about TMD in the context of dental implantology. METHODS The PRISMA-ScR and Joanna Briggs guidelines for scoping reviews were used as methodological parameters. In vivo studies published in the English language showing interplay between dental implant therapy and TMD were included. A systematic screen strategy was applied in two platforms to obtain a broad range of relevant literature published in English. RESULTS The literature review indicated that prolonged surgical procedure may be a risk for TMD. Conversely, implant-supported prostheses were found to contribute to the mitigation of some TMD aspects. Empirical principles for the best practice in implant dentistry concerning the TMD were discussed in the present study. CONCLUSION The included clinical studies suggest that factors associated with the implant placement, such as long duration of surgical procedures, may represent risk factors for TMD. They also indicate long-term benefits of implant-supported restorations.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1603. [PMID: 37763722 PMCID: PMC10535933 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59091603] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Implant-supported single crowns have become a routine approach for the replacement of missing single teeth, being considered as one of the most common ways of rehabilitation when adjacent teeth are healthy. The present retrospective study aimed to investigate the risk factors possibly associated with failure and technical complications of implant-supported single crowns and their supporting implants. Materials and Methods: Patients treated at one faculty (2009-2019) were considered for inclusion. Complications investigated included ceramic fracture/chipping, crown loss of retention/mobility, crown failure/fracture, loosening/loss/fracture of prosthetic screw, and implant failure/fracture. Any condition/situation that led to the removal/replacement of crowns (implant failure not included) was considered prosthesis failure. Univariate/multivariate Cox regression models were used to evaluate the associations between clinical covariates and failure. Results: 278 patients (358 crowns) were included. Mean ± SD follow-up was 56.5 ± 29.7 months. Seven implants (after a mean of 76.5 ± 43.7 months) and twenty crowns (21.3 ± 23.5 months) failed. The cumulative survival rate (CSR) for crowns was 93.5% after 5, remaining at 92.2% between 6 and 11 years. The most common reasons for crown failure were porcelain large fracture (n = 6), crown repeatedly loose (n = 6), and porcelain chipping (n = 5). Men and probable bruxism were identified in the Cox regression model as being associated with crown failure. The most common observed technical complications were mobility of the crown and chipping of the ceramic material, with the latter being observed even in crowns manufactured of monolithic zirconia. Cases with at least one technical complication (not considering loss of screw hole sealing) were more common among probable bruxers than in non-bruxers (p = 0.002). Cases of ceramic chipping were more common among bruxers than in non-bruxers (p = 0.014, log-rank test). Conclusions: Probable bruxism and patient's sex (men) were factors associated with a higher risk of failure of implant-supported single crowns.

[PMID: 36373771 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13152] [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: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 10/25/2022] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The restoration of dental implants presents a unique challenge due to the intrinsic biomechanical differences between osseointegrated implants and natural teeth, and their subsequent responses to occlusal loading. However, controversy exists regarding the role that occlusion plays in the physiology of the peri-implant complex. PURPOSE To provide an overview of the scientific literature regarding occlusion as it relates to implant dentistry and peri-implant disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS This article presents a narrative review on occlusal loading and its potential effects on the peri-implant complex, as well as some generally accepted guidelines for occlusion in implant dentistry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Although there is strong evidence linking occlusal factors to mechanical complications of dental implants, the same cannot be said regarding biological complications. There is no clear scientific evidence on the relationship between occlusal overload and peri-implant disease. However, occlusal overload may be an accelerating factor for peri-implant disease in the presence of inflammation. As the biomechanical properties of dental implants differ from that of the natural dentition, modifications to classic concepts of occlusion may be necessary when dental implants are involved. Thus, clinical recommendations are proposed which function to minimize unfavorable occlusal forces on implant restorations and reduce the associated biological and mechanical complications.

Assessment of Various Risk Factors for Biological and Mechanical/Technical Complications in Fixed Implant Prosthetic Therapy: A Retrospective Study. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:2341. [PMID: 37510085 PMCID: PMC10378676 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13142341] [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: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The goals of this research were to determine the influence of several factors on implants' biological and technical complications in posterior fixed implant prosthetic therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study group consisted of 67 edentulous patients (mean age: 63.88 ± 11.709 yrs; 20 males, 47 females) with implant prosthetic therapy for posterior edentulism. A total of 76 implant-supported fixed partial dentures (IP-FPDs) and 178 implants were assessed using clinical and paraclinical assessments. Risk factors for biological complications (peri-implantitis) and technical complications were determined by using the Pearson Chi-squared test and multivariate analysis. RESULTS The implant success (the absence of biological and mechanical/technical complications) was 66.30%. The prevalence of biological complications was 13.5%. The prevalence of technical complications was 28.70%. Variables that were associated with a higher risk of peri-implantitis were poor oral hygiene and bruxism. In univariate analysis, poor oral hygiene increased the risk of peri-implantitis 5.778 times and bruxism 5.875 times. Variables that were associated with a higher risk of mechanical/technical complications were age group > 60 yrs, smoking, history of periodontal disease, and bruxism. In univariate analysis, the risk of technical complications increased 4.14 times for patients in the age group > 60 years (vs. age group 40-60 years) and 20.5 times for patients with bruxism. Bruxism and smoking were significant predictors of mechanical/technical complications in the multivariate model. CONCLUSIONS In univariate models, patients with poor oral hygiene and bruxism have an increased risk of peri-implantitis. In multivariate models, we did not identify significant predictors of peri-implantitis. Age group > 60 yrs, smoking, history of periodontal disease, bone grafting, and bruxism are risk factors for the increase in the mechanical/technical complication rate. In the multivariate model, smoking and bruxism are significant predictors of the mechanical/technical complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present retrospective study was to compare the marginal bone loss (MBL) around dental implants in a group of diabetic patients in relation to a matched group of non-diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present dental record-based retrospective study included patients selected from individuals treated with dental implants at one specialist clinic in Malmö, Sweden. Patients were excluded if they had history of periodontitis and/or were treated for periodontal disease. The study group included 710 implants installed in 180 patients (mean age 60.3±13.0 years), 349 implants in 90 diabetic (21 T1DM and 69 T2DM patients), and 361 implants in 90 non-diabetic patients. RESULTS The results suggested that jaw (greater MBL in the maxilla), diabetes (greater MBL for diabetic patients, and worse for T1DM patients), bruxism (greater MBL for bruxers), and smoking (greater MBL for smokers and former smokers) had a statistically significant influence on MBL over time. CONCLUSIONS Patients with diabetes have an estimated greater MBL over time compared to non-diabetic patients. The difference was greater in patients with diabetes type 1 compared to patients with diabetes type 2. Bruxism, smoking, and implant location (maxilla) were also associated with a higher loss of marginal bone around implants over time. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Awareness of the possible influence of diabetes on the long-term outcomes of dental implant treatment is important, in order to be able to minimize the possibility of a high MBL with time, which can eventually lead to the loss of the implant.

Abstract
The aim of this present record-based retrospective study was to investigate the influence of the crown-implant ratio (CIR) and implant inclination in relation to the occlusal plane on the marginal bone loss (MBL) around dental implants supporting single crowns in the posterior region of the jaws. All the cases of implant-supported single crowns in the premolar and molar regions were initially considered for inclusion. Only implants not lost, with baseline radiographs taken within 12 months after implant placement and with a minimum of 36 months of radiological follow-up, were considered for the analysis of MBL. Univariate linear regression models were used to compare MBL over time between 12 clinical covariates, after which a linear mixed-effects model was built. After the exclusion of 49 cases, a total of 316 implant-supported single crowns in 234 patients were included. The results from the statistical models suggested that implant inclination and anatomical- and clinical CIR (the main related factors investigated in the study) were not statistically significantly related to MBL over time. Age (older people), tooth region (premolar), and bruxism (bruxers) had a statistically significant influence on MBL over time.

Abstract
AIMS To synthesize the oral alterations observed in children with microcephaly associated with congenital Zika virus syndrome (CZS), and to compare the oral alterations of these children to a normotypic healthy controls. METHODS AND RESULTS A search was performed in six electronic databases. Observational studies published that reported oral alterations in children with CZS were selected. Two authors independently extracted data, assessed study quality, using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist tools, and the certainty of evidence, using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Twenty-one studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled crude occurrence showed 88% of increased salivation (95%CI: 82%-94%), 83% of biofilm (95%CI: 75%-91%), and 73% of bruxism (95%CI: 52%-95%). Compared to normotypic controls, children with CZS-associated microcephaly had a higher chance to have difficulty in lip sealing (OR: 18.28; 95%CI: 1.42-235.91), inadequate lingual posture at rest (OR: 13.57; 95%CI: 4.24-43.44), and delayed eruption (OR: 12.92; 95%CI: 3.42-48.78), with very low certainty. CONCLUSION There are several oral alterations found among children with CZS-associated microcephaly. They are more prone to present some of these alterations, such as difficulty in lip sealing, although with very low certainty of evidence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the fracture resistance (FR) of three combinations of materials for full-arch maxillary implant-supported hybrid prostheses (HPs) with short cantilevers (≤ 10 mm). METHODS Maxillary HPs were fabricated and classified as follows (n = 5 each): Group-1 (CC-A, control): acrylic-resin-veneered Co-Cr frameworks; Group-2 (CF-A): acrylic-resin-veneered carbon-fiber mesostructures; and Group-3 (CF-R): composite-resin-veneered carbon-fiber frames. Specimens were thermal-cycled (5,000 cycles; 5 °C-55 °C; dwell time: 30 s). Vertical loads were applied until failure, first at the 10-mm-long cantilever (LC), and, afterwards, at the anterior region (AR), using a universal testing machine (crosshead speed: 0.05 mm/s). The fracture pattern was assessed by stereomicroscope and SEM. The one-way ANOVA, the Bonferroni, and the independent samples t tests, were run (α= 0.05). RESULTS At LC, CF-A, and CC-A samples exhibited the highest FR values (p< 0.001), showing no differences to each other. At AR, CC-A specimens recorded the highest FR, followed by CF-A samples (p< 0.001). CF-R HPs displayed the lowest FR at both locations (p< 0.001). The only group with differences between the tested sites was the CC-A, the AR being more resistant (p< 0.001). Most CC-A and CF-A HPs failed cohesively. CF-R prostheses mainly failed adhesively. CONCLUSIONS Maxillary HPs with short cantilevers (≤ 10 mm) made of Co-Cr or carbon-fiber veneered with acrylic resin demonstrated an adequate mechanical resistance (> 900 N). CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE For maxillary HPs with cantilevers up to 10 mm, acrylic-veneered carbon- fiber mesostructures may be recommended, whereas coating carbon-fiber frames with composite resin seems not suitable.

Abstract
This dental record-based retrospective study aimed to compare the marginal bone loss (MBL) around dental implants in a group of smokers in relation to a matched group of non-smokers, with a special focus on five different frequencies of daily smoking (non-smokers, and frequency of 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, and 20 cig./day). Only implants with a minimum of 36 months of radiological follow-up were considered. Univariate linear regression models were used to compare MBL over time between 12 clinical covariates, after which a linear mixed-effects model was built. After matching of the patients, the study included 340 implants in 104 smokers, and 337 implants in 100 non-smokers. The results suggested that smoking degree (greater MBL for higher degrees of smoking), bruxism (greater MBL for bruxers), jaw (greater MBL in maxilla), prosthesis fixation (greater MBL for screw-retained prosthesis), and implant diameter (greater MBL for 3.75-4.10 mm) had a significant influence on MBL over time. There appears to be a positive correlation between the degree of smoking and the degree of MBL, meaning, the higher the degree of smoking, the greater the MBL. However, the difference is not apparent for different degrees of smoking when this is high, namely above 10 cigarettes per day.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare marginal bone loss (MBL) around dental implants in a group of bruxers in relation to a matched group of non-bruxers. METHODS The present record-based retrospective study included patients selected from individuals treated with dental implants at one specialist clinic in Malmö. Only implants not lost and with baseline radiographs taken within 12 months after implant placement and with a minimum of 36 months of radiological follow-up were considered for inclusion. Univariate linear regression models and a linear mixed-effects model were performed. RESULTS Two hundred and four patients (104 bruxers, 100 non-bruxers), with a total of 811 implants (416 in bruxers, 395 in non-bruxers) were included in the study. The results of the linear mixed-effects model suggested that bruxism, smoking, age, region of the jaws, implant diameter, and prosthesis type had a statistically significant influence on MBL over time. Individuals who are both bruxers and smokers showed greater MBL when compared to individuals who are either a bruxer or smoker, or neither (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Bruxism is suggested to increase the risk of MBL over time, as well as higher age, smoking, and the combination of bruxism and smoking. Other factors that showed a correlation with increased MBL were implant diameter, region of the jaws, and prosthesis type, but it is not possible to draw robust conclusions for these factors, as the categories of these variables were very unbalanced.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to assess, over a period of 5 years, implant prosthesis and patient-reported outcomes of complete dentures retained by four implant-supported attachments in the edentulous maxilla facing either natural teeth or fixed rehabilitation in the lower jaw. MATERIALS AND METHODS Implant, prosthodontic and patient-related outcomes were assessed in 30 patients at 1, 3 and 5 years. Prosthodontic survival, complications or maintenance events as well as implant survival were recorded. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were evaluated with the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-20) questionnaire and a visual analogue scale (VAS) before implant placement (baseline) and during the follow-up period. RESULTS After 5 years, three patients dropped out, 21 implants failed, and four overdentures were replaced leading to a prosthesis survival rate of 85.2% (95% CI: 71.8%-98.6%) and an implant survival rate of 80.6% (95% CI: 73.1%-88.0%). Prosthodontic success rate decreased from 86.2% to 74% between the 1st and the 3rd year and reached 63% after 5 years. OHIP results improved significantly from baseline to 1 year (p < .0001) and to 3 years (p = .036), but, at 5 years, the improvement was no longer significant when compared to baseline (p = .12). The overall VAS score remained significantly higher up to 5 years (p < .001). CONCLUSION A substantial number of prosthetic complications and replacements occurred over the 5-year follow-up. After 5 years, the OHIP-20 deteriorated and reached again the baseline level. Nonetheless, the VAS results suggest significantly increased patient satisfaction after implant-supported retention was provided for the removable prostheses.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The outcome of implant-supported fixed complete dentures in edentulous patients with a history of periodontitis is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this retrospective clinical study was to assess the clinical outcomes of immediate loaded fixed complete dentures in individuals with a history of periodontitis and to analyze risk factors related to implant failure. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 642 implants (146 prostheses) in 119 patients were included. The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 7 years. Implant survival rates, marginal bone loss, mechanical complications, biologic complications, and patient satisfaction were evaluated. The Pearson chi-square test, independent samples t test, and multivariate generalized estimating equation were performed for statistical analysis (α=.05). RESULTS Eleven implants in 9 patients failed, leading to overall survival rates of 98.3% at the implant level and 92.4% at the patient level. The mean ±standard deviation marginal bone loss was 0.62 ±0.86 mm, and marginal bone loss did not differ significantly between axial and tilted implants (P>.05). Mechanical complications were detected in 55 (37.7%) definitive prostheses; biologic complications were detected in 318 (49.5%) implants. Smokers had a significantly lower survival rate than nonsmokers (odds ratio: 6.880, P=.013). Bruxers had a significantly higher incidence of mechanical complications than nonbruxers (P<.001). CONCLUSIONS The immediate loaded fixed complete denture supported by implants is a suitable treatment option for edentulous patients with a history of periodontitis, with high survival implant rates. Smoking is a risk factor for implant failure. Bruxism may increase the incidence of mechanical complications with implant-supported fixed complete dentures, and the overall biologic complication incidence is comparatively high.

[PMID: 36155739 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2022.08.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Revised: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Proper management of the soft tissues around dental implants is crucial to their long-term function and esthetics. The purpose of this article is to report the survival rate of immediate posterior implants when using an immediate chair-side technique for custom healing abutments. MATERIALS AND METHODS The investigator implemented a retrospective case series analysis of a sample of 115 consecutive patients with 1 posterior dental implant placed between February 1, 2012 and December 9, 2014, in the author's private practice who underwent the previously published technique for immediate custom chair-side healing abutment fabrication. In this descriptive analysis, the primary outcome variable was implant survival. Other variables included patient gender and age. RESULTS Of the 115 patients in this cohort, 66 were female and 49 were male, with a mean age of 58 years, with 73% of the sites being first molars and 27% second molars. This study sample had a 98.26% overall implant survival rate with 3 implant failures. Median follow-up time was 1 year with identical 1-year and 5-year survival rates. Follow-up at up to 8 years demonstrated a 98.26% overall survival rate with 100% survival in the maxilla and 96.08% in the mandible. CONCLUSIONS This case series demonstrates that the Anatomic Harmony Abutment technique, by applying principles of flapless posterior immediate implant surgery with immediate custom healing abutment placement, can lead to highly successful implant outcomes.

Abstract
Background Parafunctional forces are a potential risk factor for implant-related complications. This study aimed to evaluate the possible relationship of bruxism with implant-related complications and marginal bone loss (MBL). Methods In this prospective cohort study, patients were divided into two groups with and without bruxism, and received single-tooth implants in the posterior mandible. Patients in the bruxer group were requested to use a customized fabricated night guard. Bone quality was also assessed based on CBCT scans. The MBL, crown detachment, and porcelain fracture were evaluated, and clinical assessments were made at the 12-month follow-up. Results Seventy patients were studied in two groups (n = 35 in each group). None of the implants in any of the two groups showed pain, sensitivity, suppuration, exudation, clinically detectable mobility, or peri-implant radiolucency. No significant difference was observed between the two groups in the mean MBL at the 12-month follow-up (p = 0.60). Regarding bone quality, there was no significant difference in the mean MBL among different types of bone qualities (p = 0.66). There were no significant differences regarding crown detachment and porcelain fracture between the two groups either (p = 0.32 and p = 0.30, respectively). Conclusion According to the results of this study, dental implant treatment according to the suggested protocol in bruxers yielded promising outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES to retrospectively evaluate clinical and radiographic outcomes of immediate, flapless full-arch prostheses, supported by 4/6 implants according to prosthetic-driven planning and guided surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study involved 28 edentulous patients (20 female/8 males; average age 67.75 ± 8.627 years), 32 prostheses (17 all-on-4/15 all-on-6) and 164 implants. The Implants survival, prostheses success/survival, peri-implant marginal bone loss, incidence of biological and prosthetic complications were evaluated. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to analyze the influence of implant and patient characteristics on marginal bone loss. RESULTS Cumulative implant survival rate was 89.7% for all-on-four (seven failures) and 99.0% for all-on-six (one failure) after a mean follow-up of 6.46 ± 2.236 years (range 1-10 years). Cumulative prosthesis success rate was 51.5% (58.8% for all-on-four/ 43.8% for all-on-six). Prosthesis survival rate was 88.2% for all-on-four. No failure was registered in all-on-six. Mean value of marginal bone loss was 1.38 ± 0.1.28 mm at 5-year and 2.09 ± 0.56 mm at 10-year follow-up. No difference was found in the mean value of marginal bone resorption between all-on-four (1.56 ± 1.61 mm) and all-on-six (1.20 ± 0.85 mm) (p = 0.104) and between tilted (1.22 ± 1.29 mm) and axial implants (1.44 ± 1.27 mm) (p = 0.385) after 5-year follow-up. The incidence of biological complications was 1.0% in all-on-six (one mucositis) and 10.3% in all-on-four (two peri-implantitis). Prosthetic complications affected teeth of final rehabilitations with 3 detachments, 10 chippings or fractures, and 3 severe occlusal wears. CONCLUSIONS Based on the results and within the limitations of the present study, the implant-supported hybrid prosthesis according to prosthetic-driven planning and guided surgery showed to be an efficient, safe, and effective approach to rehabilitate edentulous jaws.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively 1) investigate the association between implant-, patient- and bone-related parameters with the risk of implant failure; 2) analyze the survival rates of dental implants placed in a university clinical setting. METHODS Data were retrieved from patient charts from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry to identify patients older than 18 years of age who received dental implant treatment by faculty, residents or students in the university dental clinics. Implant-, patient- and bone-related parameters such as implant system, length, diameter, jaw, region, installation protocol, gender, smoking, medical history, history of periodontal disease, self-reported oral parafunctions, type of bone, and operator were manually retrieved and analyzed. RESULTS Five hundred and fifty-three implants were randomly selected from a total of 4,424. Of these 553 implants, 440 (79.6%) were associated with a >10 mm length, 371 (67.1%) with a >4 mm diameter and 431 (77.9%) had replaced a single tooth. Submerged healing mode was followed in 363 (65.6%) of the implants with the mean healing time being 3.2 months. History of periodontal disease was identified in 294 (53.2%) of these cases. A total of 17 implants failed after a mean time of 6.29 ± 6.75 months, resulting in an overall survival rate of 96.9%. Based on a univariate analysis, implant system, operator, time between extraction and implant surgery, time between bone grafting and implant placement, tobacco use as well as clenching and grinding were considered potential implant failure predictors and were further included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. Tobacco use (p < 0.001) was significantly associated with implant failure. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this retrospective randomly selected university-treated sample tobacco use increased the risk for implant failure. Failure occurred in 17 implants representing a 3.1% failure rate.

Abstract
Bruxism is a term that encompasses a range of presentations of rhythmic and repetitive muscular activity. For many, this is not a significant problem but for some, this behaviour leads to substantial impact and tissue damage that can be significant, compromising function and quality of life. This paper will review management methods for reconstructing the damaged dentition. Reconstruction is complex. Interventions should be pragmatic and guidance is provided in a themed approach. Interventions may be conformative or reconstructive. The grinding style should be identified to allow reconstruction to work with activity, not in conflict. Preservation of tooth tissue is essential and direct placed bonded composite materials are biologically friendly, easily repaired, cheap and act as stress breakers. Complex fixed restorative reconstruction and implant supported bridges are likely to have high failure rates and must be protected with occlusal splints. Reconstructions should be planned with maximum retrievability and removable options figure significantly in effective treatment plans.

Dent J (Basel) 2022; 10:dj10050082. [PMID: 35621535 PMCID: PMC9140184 DOI: 10.3390/dj10050082] [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: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Bone grafting procedures during the use of dental implants may be avoided by the use of tilted implants in the maxilla and the mandible; advantages of angled implants are associated with the extension of the distal cantilever, leading to better implant survival rates. However, the bending effect on the single tilting implants may increase the marginal bone stress. The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively assess the clinical success and proximal bone loss rate following the implantation of distally tilted implants according to the All-on-Four™ prosthetic concept—based on radiographic findings—in a single-center experience, in addition to the assessment of the outcomes in the context of various clinico-epidemiological correlates. During the study period, n = 36 patients (24 males and 12 females) with complete records of periapical radiographs, received a full-arch fixed bridge supported by two axial and two distal tilted implants; overall n = 144 and n = 144 implants (Nobel B) were place in the maxilla and mandibles of patients, respectively. Mean age of patients at the time of fixture installation was 58.75 ± 13.71 years; n =11 patients presented with relevant underlying conditions/habits. To assess peri-implant bone-level changes, matched and calibrated orthopantomogram (OPT) images were taken at follow-ups after 1.5 years, 2.5 years, and 3.5 years post-restoration, and marginal bone levels were assessed on the mesio- (MA) and disto-approximal (DA) aspects. All implants were successful, resulting in a 100% overall survival rate. The radiographic mean bone loss levels at baseline (mean ± SEM) were 0.181 ± 0.011 mm and 0.178 ± 0.017 mm in the maxilla and mandible, respectively, while by the 3.5-year mark, bone loss was 0.770 ± 0.029 mm and 0.713 ± 0.026 mm in the maxilla and mandible (p > 0.05), respectively; bone-level changes were significant over time (p = 0.035 and p = 0.033). Peri-implant bone loss was more aggressive around titled distal implants versus mesial actual position implants. The effect of smoking and other underlying conditions showed significantly higher (p < 0.05) bone resorption levels when assessed on an individual implant-level, while during patient-level analysis, only a tendency was shown for higher bone loss rates for both MA and DA implants (p > 0.05). Within its limitations, our study has concluded that the use of All-on-Four™ prosthetic concept for total arch rehabilitation yields higher bone loss in association with tilted implants and, in some cases, on the MA surfaces at vertically positioned implants after >40 months in function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the prevalence, predictors, and prosthetic complications of bruxing patients with dental implants in two tertiary clinics in Istanbul, Turkey. METHODS Patients with at least one dental implant and with a fixed prosthesis were examined for the evidence of probable bruxism. Factors that could be related to bruxism were analyzed in relation to patient-specific variables. Technical and mechanical complications were investigated. RESULTS A total of 1688 patients were analyzed. The overall rate of probable bruxism was 19.72%. Besides self-reported bruxism (p < 0.022), antidepressant use (p < 0.002), frequent headaches (p < 0.014), and observation of linea alba (p < 0.028) were the predictors for probable bruxism. Technical and mechanical complications were frequent in the probable bruxers (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Overall prevalence of bruxism was 19.72%, and bruxism was associated with general and gender-specific predictors.

Abstract
There is a large gap between primitive bruxism detectors and sophisticated clinical machines for jaw kinematics evaluation. Large, expensive clinical appliances can precisely record jaw motion, but completely restrain the patient for the duration of the test. Wearable bruxism detectors allow continuously counting and recording bites, but provide no information about jaw movement trajectories. Previously, we developed a permanent magnet and three-axis magnetometer-based method for wearable, intra-oral continuous jaw position registration. In this work, we present an effective solution of the two main drawbacks of the method. Firstly, a two-adjacent-magnetometer approach is able to compensate for background magnetic fields with no reference sensor outside of the system's magnetic field. Secondly, jaw rotational angles were included in the position calculations, by applying trigonometric equations that link the translation of the jaw to its rotation. This way, we were able to use a three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) magnetic position determination method to track the positions of the 5-DOF human masticatory system. To validate the method, finite element modeling and a 6-DOF robotic arm (0.01 mm, 0.01°) were used, which showed a 37% decrease in error in the average RMSE = 0.17 mm. The method's potentially can be utilized in small-scale, low-power, wearable intra-oral devices for continuous jaw motion recording.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess retrospectively the survival and success rates of monolithic zirconia restorations supported by teeth and implants in bruxer versus non-bruxer patients. Methods: A total of 15 bruxer and 25 non-bruxer patients attended the recall appointment. The bruxer group (mean age of 61.2 ± 13.3 years and follow-up of 58.7 ± 16.8 months) were treated with 331 monolithic zirconia restorations, while the non-bruxer group, with a comparable mean age and follow-up time, were treated with 306 monolithic zirconia restorations. Clinical data were retrieved from the patients’ files. At the recall appointment, all supporting teeth and implants were examined for biological and technical complications, and the restorations were evaluated using modified California Dental Association (CDA) criteria. Data were statistically analyzed using survival analysis methods. A significance level of p < 0.05 was used. A total of 31 versus 27 biologic and technical complications were recorded in the bruxer and non-bruxer groups, respectively. No significant differences were found between the two groups regarding overall complications and survival rate. Regarding the type of complication, a significantly higher rate of veneered porcelain chipping (p = 0.045) was observed in the bruxer group. With regard to biological complications, the only complications that exhibited a borderline, although not significant, difference were three fractured teeth exclusively in the bruxer group (p = 0.051), which were replaced with implant-supported restorations. Within the limitations of this study, we conclude that there were no significant differences in the overall survival and success rates of the monolithic zirconia restorations in bruxer versus non-bruxer patients, although veneered zirconia restorations and single tooth abutments exhibited a higher rate of complications in the bruxer group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Teeth connect to bone via a periodontal ligament whereas implants connect to bone directly. Consequently, masticatory loads are distributed differently to periodontal versus peri-implant bone. Our objective was to determine how masticatory loading of an implant versus a tooth affected peri-implant versus periodontal bone remodeling. Our hypothesis was that strains produced by functional loading of an implant would be elevated compared to the strains around teeth, and that this would stimulate a greater degree of bone turnover around implants versus in periodontal bone. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty skeletally mature mice were divided into two groups. In the Implant group, maxillary first molars (mxM1) were extracted, and after socket healing, titanium alloy implants were positioned sub-occlusally. After osseointegration, implants were exposed, resin crowns were placed, and masticatory loading was initiated. In a Control group the dentition was left intact. Responses of peri-implant and periodontal bone were measured using micro-CT, histology, bone remodeling assays, and quantitative histomorphometry while bone strains were estimated using finite element (FE) analyses. CONCLUSIONS When a submerged osseointegrated implant is exposed to masticatory forces peri-implant strains are elevated, and peri-implant bone undergoes significant remodeling that culminates in new bone accrual. The accumulation of new bone functions to reduce both peri-implant strains and bone remodeling activities, equivalent to those observed around the intact dentition.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Tobacco is today the single most preventable cause of death, being associated with countless diseases, including cancer and neurological, cardiovascular, and respiratory diseases. Smoking also brings negative consequences to oral health, potentially impairing treatment with dental implants. The present review aimed to evaluate the influence of smoking on dental implant failure rates and marginal bone loss (MBL). Materials and Methods: Electronic search was undertaken in three databases, plus a manual search of journals. Meta-analyses were performed, in addition to meta-regressions, in order to verify how the odds ratio (OR) and MBL were associated with follow-up time. Results: The review included 292 publications. Altogether, there were 35,511 and 114,597 implants placed in smokers and in non-smokers, respectively. Pairwise meta-analysis showed that implants in smokers had a higher failure risk in comparison with non-smokers (OR 2.402, p < 0.001). The difference in implant failure between the groups was statistically significant in the maxilla (OR 2.910, p < 0.001), as well as in the mandible (OR 2.866, p < 0.001). The MBL mean difference (MD) between the groups was 0.580 mm (p < 0.001). There was an estimated decrease of 0.001 in OR (p = 0.566) and increase of 0.004 mm (p = 0.279) in the MBL MD between groups for every additional month of follow-up, although without statistical significance. Therefore, there was no clear influence of the follow-up on the effect size (OR) and on MBL MD between groups. Conclusions: Implants placed in smokers present a 140.2% higher risk of failure than implants placed in non-smokers.

Abstract
The present review aimed to evaluate the difference of dental implant failure rates and marginal bone loss (MBL) between implants inserted in fresh extraction sockets or healed sites. Electronic search was undertaken in three databases, plus manual search of journals, including studies randomized or not. Meta-analyses were performed besides meta-regressions, in order to verify how the odds ratio (OR) and MBL were associated with follow-up time. The review included 163 publications. Altogether, there were 17,278 and 38,738 implants placed in fresh extraction sockets and healed sites, respectively. Pairwise meta-analyses showed that implants in sockets had a higher failure risk in comparison to healed sites: OR 1.349, all studies included; OR 2.070, only prospective non-RCTs; OR 2.487, only RCTs (all p < 0.001). The difference in implant failure between the groups was statistically significant in the maxilla (OR 1.616, p = 0.029), but not in the mandible (OR 2.192, p = 0.075). The MBL mean difference (MD) between the groups was −0.053 mm (p = 0.089). There was an estimated decrease of 0.003 in OR (p = 0.284) and an increase of 0.006 mm (p = 0.036) in the MBL MD between groups for every additional month of follow-up. In conclusion, implants placed in fresh extraction sockets present higher risk of failure than implants placed in healed sites.

J Periodontol 2021; 93:481-492. [PMID: 34390497 PMCID: PMC10138758 DOI: 10.1002/jper.21-0010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peri-implantitis (PI) is a growing concern in the dental community worldwide. The study aimed to compare U.S. vs. European periodontists' considerations of risk factors, diagnostic criteria, and management of PI. MATERIALS AND METHODS 393 periodontists from the U.S. and 100 periodontists from Europe (Germany, Greece, Netherlands) responded to anonymous surveys electronically or by mail. RESULTS Compared to U.S. periodontists, European respondents were younger, more likely to be female and placed fewer implants per month (9.12 vs. 13.90;p = 0.003). Poor oral hygiene, history of periodontitis, and smoking were considered as very important risk factors by both groups (rated >4 on 5-point scale). European periodontists rated poor oral hygiene (4.64 vs. 4.45;p = 0.005) and history of periodontitis (4.36 vs. 4.10;p = 0.006) as more important and implant surface (2.91 vs. 3.18;p = 0.023), occlusion (2.80 vs. 3.75;p<0.001) and presence of keratinized tissue (3.27 vs. 3.77;p<0.001) as less important than did U.S. periodontists. Both groups rated clinical probing, radiographic bone loss, and presence of bleeding and suppuration as rather important diagnostic criteria. They rated implant exposure/mucosal recession as relatively less important with U.S. periodontists giving higher importance ratings than European periodontists (3.99 vs. 3.54;p = 0.001). Both groups nearly always used patient education, plaque control and mechanical debridement when treating PI. U.S. periodontists were more likely to use antibiotics (3.88 vs. 3.07;p<0.001), lasers (2.11 vs. 1.68;p = 0.005), allograft (3.39 vs. 2.14;p<0.001) and regenerative approaches (3.57 vs. 2.56;p<0.001), but less likely to use resective surgery (3.09 vs. 3.53;p<0.001) than European periodontists. CONCLUSIONS U.S. and European periodontists' considerations concerning risk factors, diagnosis and management of PI were evidence-based. Identified differences between the two groups can inform future educational efforts. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

The Impact of Dental Implant Length on Failure Rates: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14143972. [PMID: 34300891 PMCID: PMC8307721 DOI: 10.3390/ma14143972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2021] [Revised: 07/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
The present review aimed to evaluate the impact of implant length on failure rates between short (<10 mm) and long (≥10 mm) dental implants. An electronic search was undertaken in three databases, as well as a manual search of journals. Implant failure was the outcome evaluated. Meta-analysis was performed in addition to a meta-regression in order to verify how the risk ratio (RR) was associated with the follow-up time. The review included 353 publications. Altogether, there were 25,490 short and 159,435 long implants. Pairwise meta-analysis showed that short implants had a higher failure risk than long implants (RR 2.437, p < 0.001). There was a decrease in the probability of implant failure with longer implants when implants of different length groups were compared. A sensitivity analysis, which plotted together only studies with follow-up times of 7 years or less, resulted in an estimated increase of 0.6 in RR for every additional month of follow-up. In conclusion, short implants showed a 2.5 times higher risk of failure than long implants. Implant failure is multifactorial, and the implant length is only one of the many factors contributing to the loss of an implant. A good treatment plan and the patient’s general health should be taken into account when planning for an implant treatment.

Stress distribution around different abutments on titanium and CFR-PEEK implant with different prosthetic crowns under parafunctional loading: A 3D FEA study. J Oral Biol Craniofac Res 2021; 11:313-320. [PMID: 33816100 DOI: 10.1016/j.jobcr.2021.03.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 03/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim & objectives Clinical trials had concluded a significant relationship between implant failure and bruxism. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) was done to evaluate the stress distribution in straight and angled abutments around titanium and carbon fiber-reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR-PEEK) implant with 2 different prosthetic crowns under parafunctional loading. Materials and method Twelve 3D models of bone block were created representing the maxillary right premolar area with osseointegrated implants. The models were divided in two group; CFR-PEEK implant (n = 6) and group titanium implant (n = 6).Each group was subdivided based on implants with three different abutments (straight, 15°, 25° angled abutments) and having two different prosthetic crowns: porcelain fused to metal (PFM) and polyetheretherketone (PEEK). A vertical load of 1000 N was applied to the central fossa and an oblique load of 500 N (30°) was applied to the buccal incline of the palatal cusp. The von Mises stresses and principal stresses were analyzed using ANSYS software. Results CFR-PEEK and titanium implants produced similar stress in bone under vertical and oblique loading. Straight abutment showed better results than 15° and 25° angled abutments in all the groups. PEEK crown produced lesser stress than PFM crown under vertical and oblique loading. Conclusion The study concluded that straight abutment along with PEEK crown could be given in patients with bruxism to reduce the stress concentration in bone, thus preventing possible implant failure. Titanium and CFR-PEEK implants with straight abutments if given, then it should be provided with an occlusal splint.

Long-Term Survival and Complication Rates of Porcelain Laminate Veneers in Clinical Studies: A Systematic Review. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10051074. [PMID: 33807504 PMCID: PMC7961608 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10051074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2020] [Revised: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The presented study aimed to assess the survival rate of porcelain laminate veneers (PLV) based on a systematic review of the literature. An electronic search was last updated in February 2021. Eligibility criteria included clinical series of patients rehabilitated with PLVs published in the last 25 years, with a minimum follow-up of 3 years. Survival analysis methods were applied. Twenty-five studies were included, with 6500 PLVs. The 10-year estimated cumulative survival rate (CSR) of PLVs was 95.5%. The 10-year CSR of PLVs when fracture, debonding, occurrence of secondary caries, and need of endodontic treatment were considered as isolated reasons for failure were 96.3%, 99.2%, 99.3%, and 99.0%, respectively. PLVs without incisal coverage had a higher failure rate than PLVs with incisal coverage. Non-feldspathic PLVs performed better than feldspathic PLVs. As a conclusion, the 10-year CSR of PLVs was 95.5%, when fracture, debonding, occurrence of secondary caries, and need of endodontic treatment were considered as reasons for restoration failure. Fracture seems to be most common complication of PLVs, followed by debonding, with both more commonly happening within the first years after PLV cementation. PLVs with incisal coverage and non-feldspathic PLVs presented lower failure rates than PLVs without incisal coverage and feldspathic PLVs.

Accelerometry-Enhanced Magnetic Sensor for Intra-Oral Continuous Jaw Motion Tracking. SENSORS 2021; 21:s21041409.

Abstract
Currently available jaw motion tracking methods require large accessories mounted on a patient and are utilized in controlled environments, for short-time examinations only. In some cases, especially in the evaluation of bruxism, a non-restrictive, 24-h jaw tracking method is needed. Bruxism oriented, electromyography (EMG)-based devices and sensor-enhanced occlusal splints are able to continuously detect masticatory activity but are uninformative in regards to movement trajectories and kinematics. This study explores a possibility to use a permanent magnet and a 3-axial magnetometer to track the mandible’s spatial position in relation to the maxilla. An algorithm for determining the sensor’s coordinates from magnetic field values was developed, and it was verified via analytical and finite element modeling and by using a 3D positioning system. Coordinates of the cubic test trajectory (a = 10 mm) were determined with root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 0.328±0.005 mm. Possibility for teeth impact detection by accelerometry was verified. Test on a 6 degrees-of-freedom (DOF), hexapod-based jaw motion simulator moving at natural speed confirmed the system’s ability to simultaneously detect jaw position and the impacts of teeth. Small size of MEMS sensors is suitable for a wearable intra-oral system that could allow visualization of continuous jaw movement in 3D models and could enable new research on parafunctional jaw activities.

Abstract
Recently, monolithic zirconia complete-arch fixed implant-supported prosthesis (CAFIP) has been shown to be an effective means of managing patients with edentulism or terminal dentition. Prosthetic complications have been reported to be rare, as long as there is proper treatment planning, prosthetic space and careful attention during fabrication of the prosthesis. Few reports exist in the literature that have described the management of patients with fractured zirconia CAFIP. This case report describes the successful management of a female patient with a midline fracture of a monolithic zirconia CAFIP supported by 6 dental implants in the mandibular arch. The fractured prosthesis had adequate prosthesis thickness with no distal cantilever, and opposed a similar prosthesis in the maxilla. However, upon careful analysis, diverse implant components were identified as the primary contributory factor to prosthetic misfit, and subsequent fracture. This is a new factor that requires attention by clinicians and dental laboratory technicians due to the increased prevalence of patients with preexisting dental implants. This article describes the considerations related to diverse implant components and connections from different implant manufacturers, choice of favorable implant-abutment design, technique for mitigation, and importance of passive fit for zirconia CAFIP.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this Best Evidence Consensus Statement is to report on the prevalence, potential causes or association, treatment and cure of bruxism. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search limited to Clinical Trials, Randomized Controlled Trials, Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses, with the key words bruxism, and prevalence identified 22 references, bruxism and causation 21, bruxism, and treatment 117, and bruxism and cure none. RESULTS Prevalence received 5 references which were relevant to the question researched. Causation received 11 relevant references, treatment 34 relevant references and cure none. Eighteen additional references were culled from the reference lists in the aforementioned articles. CONCLUSIONS Due to variations in demographics and the dependence on anamnestic data, the true prevalence of bruxism in any specific population is unknown. There is moderate evidence that psychosocial factors such as stress, mood, distress, nervousness, and feeling blue are associated with sleep bruxism (SB) as well as caffeine, alcohol, and smoking. There is no consensus on what symptoms of SB or awake bruxism (AB) should be treated. There is some evidence that occlusal devices and bio feedback therapies can be utilized in SB treatment. There is conflicting evidence in the use of Botulinum toxin A and no compelling evidence for the use of drug therapy to treat SB. There is not an established cure for bruxism. The clinician is best served in using caution in the dental rehabilitation of patients with severe occlusal wear.

Int J Implant Dent 2020; 6:77. [PMID: 33225376 PMCID: PMC7680819 DOI: 10.1186/s40729-020-00271-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2019] [Accepted: 10/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Immediate function has become an accepted treatment modality for fixed restorations in completely edentulous jaws. It is known that implant microtopography (surface) may enhance osseointegration, while implant macrotopography (macrodesign) plays an important role in primary stability in the patient requiring an immediate loading. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of the edentulous subjects treated with narrow and/or regular diameter, which placed and loaded immediately. Methods Forty-two consecutive patients received 171 implants, including regular and narrow diameter implants (NDIs). Each jaw, 19 mandibles and 24 maxillae, was treated with a fixed-full arch prosthesis according to the Straumann® Pro Arch concept. The majority (95%) of the restorations were supported by four implants, of which the posterior two implants were tilted. A provisional functional acrylic prosthesis was delivered on the day of surgery. All patients were followed up to 55 months. Cumulative survival rate was determined using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Radiological measurement of marginal bone level was performed. Results The overall follow-up time for survival rate was up to 55 months. Four implants (3 implants in maxilla, 1 implant in mandible) were lost, resulting in an overall cumulative implant survival rate of 97.7%. Implant survival rate in the axial and tilted implants was not statistically significant. The mean of interproximal marginal bone loss was 0.15 mm after 24 months. Good soft tissue health was observed in almost 99% of patients. The final prosthesis survival rate was 100%. Conclusions The results of this retrospective pilot study indicated that total edentulous patients requiring an immediate implant placement and loading can be successfully treated with this implant design. The improved mechanical properties of these implants might give a more conservative treatment option for the jaws showing a severe horizontal alveolar bone resorption.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of implant-supported overdentures (ODs) with either bar-clip or ball attachments. The implant, prosthesis failure, and technical complications were the outcomes analyzed in this retrospective clinical study conducted in a specialty clinic. Seventy-five patients with 242 implants supported by 76 ODs (36 maxillary, 40 mandibular) were included in the study and followed up for 88.8 ± 82.9 months (mean ± standard deviation). Bar-clip and ball attachments were used in 78.9% and 21.1% of the cases, respectively. Forty-three implant failures (17.8%) in 17 prostheses (17/76; 22.4%) were observed in this study. The average period of implant failure was 43.3 ± 41.0 months, and most of them were maxillary turned implants. The bar-clip system demonstrated more complications in the attachment parts compared to the ball attachment system. Poor retention of the prosthesis was similar between the two systems. Loss of implants resulted in the failure of 10 ODs in this study. ODs opposed by natural dentition or fixed prostheses presented with more complications. The Cox proportional hazards model did not show a significant effect on prosthesis failure for any of the factors. These findings indicated that patients with ODs need constant maintenance follow-ups to address the technical complications and perform prosthodontic maintenance regardless of the attachment system used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oral rehabilitation with fixed restorations supported by the combination of teeth and dental implants has been advocated in some cases. PURPOSE To assess the clinical outcomes of these prostheses. Fixed restorations supported by the combination of teeth and dental implants. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included all patients treated with combined tooth-implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) at one specialist clinic. Abutment/prosthesis failure and technical complications were the outcomes analyzed. RESULTS A total of 85 patients with 96 prostheses were included, with a mean follow-up of 10.5 years. Twenty prostheses failed. The estimated cumulative survival rate was 90.7%, 84.8%, 69.9%, and 66.2% at 5, 10, 15, and 20 years, respectively. The failure of tooth and/or implant abutments in key positions affected the survival of the prostheses. There were seven reasons for prostheses failure, with the loss of abutments exerting a significant influence. Bruxism was possibly associated with failures. Prostheses with cantilevers did not show a statistically significant higher failure rate. No group had a general higher prevalence of technical complications in comparison to the other groups. CONCLUSIONS Although combined tooth-implant-supported FDPs are an alternative treatment option, this study has found that across 20 years of service nearly 35% the prostheses may fail.

Risk Factors related to Late Failure of Dental Implant-A Systematic Review of Recent Studies. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17113931.

Abstract
Resolving late failure of dental implant is difficult and costly; however, only few reviews have addressed the risk factors associated with late failure of dental implant. The aim of this literature review was to summarize the influences of different potential risk factors on the incidence of late dental implant failure. The protocol of this systematic review was prepared and implemented based on the PRISMA (Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses) guideline. In December 2018, studies published within the previous 10 years on late dental implant failure were selected by fulfilling the eligibility criteria and the risk factors identified in qualified studies were extracted by using a predefined extraction template. Fourteen eligible studies were assessed. The common risk factors for late failure were divided into three groups according to whether they were related to (1) the patient history (radiation therapy, periodontitis, bruxism and early implant failure), (2) clinical parameters (posterior implant location and bone grade 4) or (3) decisions made by the clinician (low initial stability, more than one implant placed during surgery, inflammation at the surgical site during the first year or using an overdenture with conus-type connection). Clinicians should be cautions throughout the treatment process of dental implant—from the initial examination to the treatment planning, surgical operation and prosthesis selection—in order to minimize the risk of late failure of dental implant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation between the clinical diagnostic criteria of sleep bruxism and the frequency of mandibular movements during sleep. METHODS Video polysomnography was used to record 20 healthy adults with at least one of the following clinical symptoms and signs: 1) report of frequent tooth grinding; 2) tooth wear and dentin exposure with at least three occlusal surfaces; 3) masticatory muscle symptoms in the morning; 4) masseter muscle hypertrophy. The rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) and isolated tonic activity were scored to compare the correlations with clinical symptoms and signs. Finally, the incidence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) was investigated in patients with isolated tonic and RMMA subjects. RESULTS Among the 20 subjects, RMMA events were observed (5.8±3.1) times·h⁻¹ and isolated tonic episodes were observed (2.1±0.9) times·h⁻¹. The frequency of RMMA events was significantly greater in the patients with acoustic molars than in those without (P<0.05). Similarly, the frequency of RMMA events was significantly greater in the patients with tooth attrition than in those without (P<0.05). However, no difference was observed between the occurrence of RMMA and the symptoms of masticatory muscles or masseter hypertrophy in the morning. The incidence of TMD was significantly higher in the patients with RMMA than in the isolated tonic patients. CONCLUSIONS The clinical symptoms and signs often used to diagnose sleep bruxism are different clinical and physiological mandibular movements during sleep. RMMA during sleep can reflect the occurrence of tooth attrition and the high risk of TMD.

Abstract
Controversy persists as to the role of occlusal overload in peri-implantitis. Animal studies have not revealed the biological threshold for fatigue failure in the peri-implant bone. On the other hand, clinical studies have demonstrated a link between parafunction and implant failure, although variables such as intensity and frequency of loads, as well as bone density, have led to different outcomes. The absence of specific engineering “building codes” for the clinician has relegated prosthetic design planning to intuitive guidelines for all patients. For example, higher crown to implant ratios (2–3:1), implant cantilever prostheses and non-splinted restorative designs have been avoided because of the concern for overload. However, evidence has not supported this general approach. A call for preclinical research to establish specific patient load thresholds is in order to establish a customized treatment plan.
