Abstract
Purpose Different surgical approaches for zygomatic implantology using new designed implants are reported. Material and methods The surgical technique is described and two cases reported. The zygomatic fixture has a complete extrasinus path in order to preserve the sinus membrane and to avoid any post-surgical sinus sequelae. Results The surgical procedure allows an optimal position of the implant and consequently an ideal emergence of the fixture on the alveolar crest. Conclusion The surgical procedures and the zygomatic implant design reduce remarkably the serious post-operative sequelae due to the intrasinus path of the zygomatic fixtures.

Abstract
Purpose The light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been applied in oral surgery for tissue stimulation and wound healing. Several Authors have highlighted that fibroblasts subjected to phototherapy have an increased viability, proliferation, biomodulation of inflammatory cytokines and genes expression. It remains to be determined which are the best irradiation parameters (energy, wavelength, power) for each type of cell in order to obtain the best bio-stimulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of LED irradiation on primary human gingival fibroblast cells (HGF) on DSP, ELN, HAS1, ELANE, HYAL1, RPL13 genes activation using Real Time PCR. These genes activation is directly connected with elastin protein production and HGF functionality. Materials and methods Human gingival tissue biopsies were obtained from three healthy patients during extraction of teeth. The gingival pieces were fragmented with a scalpel and transferred in culture dishes for allow the cells growth. Human gingival fibroblasts at the second passage were seeded on multiple 6-well plates and were stimulated with three different light-emitting diodes (LEDs) fixture. After irradiation, the cells were trypsinized, harvested and lysed for RNA extraction. Genes expression was quantified using Real Time PCR. Results We didn't found significant differences in genes activation of HGF of the three different LEDs. The LED irradiation seems to be directly correlated with the elastin and hyaluronoglucosaminidase 1 genes activation that are directly connected with proteins production and HGF functionality. Conclusions HGF show an increased deposition of elastin as well as enhanced expression of collagen type I, which is the main protein related to the synthesis and of the collagen-rich matrix.

Abstract
Purpose Nowadays, implant supported prosthetic rehabilitation is a reliable procedure to replace compromised or untreatable teeth. The purpose of this review is to explore the concept of post extractive implant and the indications for clinical practice through an analysis of recent studies in the literature. All the main factors that could influence the outcome of this treatment will also be considered. Materials and methods Focusing on the extraction-socket healing time, three different implant insertion protocols have been defined: Immediate implant placement (IIP), Early implant placement (EIP), Delayed implant placement (DIP). The entity of bone remodeling can be associated with different factors: three dimensional implant position, presence/absence of platform switching, absence of facial bony wall, inter implant/tooth distance. Results All the studies in literature agreed that implant primary stability is the main condition for a successful osseointegration of dental implants. Primary implant stability is influenced by many factors including local bone quality and quantity, implant macro-design, soft tissue conditions and rehabilitation, surgical technique, prosthetic load timing, oral hygiene. Conclusions There is insufficient evidence in literature to determine possible advantages or disadvantages of IIP, EIP or DIP. Studies suggest that IIP and EIP may be at higher risks of implant failures and complications than delayed implants; on the other hand the aesthetic outcome might be better when placing implants just after teeth extraction.

Abstract
Purpose Modern dentistry have witnessed, a rapid and continuing evolution. Concerning the implant-rehabilitation protocols, they have been redefined in order to satisfy patient's increasing expectations in terms of comfort, aesthetic and shorter treatment period. The purpose of this review is to explore the concept of implant immediate loading and the indications for clinical practice. All the critical aspects that could influence the outcomes of this treatment will also be considered. Materials and methods Three protocols for implant load timing have been classified: immediate loading implants (ILI); early loading implants (ELI); and conventional loading implants (CLI). Two subclassifications point out the different loading modality: 1) Occlusal loading or Non-Occlusal loading, 2) Direct loading or Progressive loading. Micromovements have been considered, since the start of implant dentistry, one of the main risk for the success of osseointegration. The determinant and most accessible parameter to assess the primary stability is the implant insertion torque value. To achieve the necessary torque value to perform immediate loading, it is therefore important to evaluate the bone density at the implant site. Computerized tomography (CT) has been regarded as the best radiographic method to evaluate the residual bone. Results The clinical success of this technique is highly dependent on many factors: patient selection, bone quality and quantity, implant number and design, implant primary stability, occlusal loading and clinician's surgical ability. Among these, implant primary stability is undoubtedly the most important. Conclusion Studies on ILI show that successful outcome can be expected, if the previous criteria are fulfilled. It seems that ILI demonstrate a greater risk for implant failure when compared to CLI, although the survival rates were high for both the procedures. The use of different surgical procedures, type of prostheses, loading times and have very different study designs. This lack of homogeneity limits the relevance of the conclusions that can be drawn.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of our study is to evaluate the ability of a new type of implant (Konus Implant System®, Industrie biomediche e farmaceutiche, Italy) to isolate the internal of an implant-abutment connection from the external environment. Materials and methods To identify the capability of the implant to protect the internal space from the external environment, the passage of genetically modified Escherichia coli across implant-abutment interface was evaluated. Implants were immerged in a bacterial culture for twenty-four hours and then bacteria amount was measured inside implant-abutment interface with Real-time PCR. Results Bacteria were detected inside all studied implants, with a median percentage of 18% for Porphiromonas Gingivalis and 19% for Tannerella Forsythia. Conclusion The reported results are similar to previous work. Konus Implant System® showed bacterial leakage similar respect others implant systems (18% Porphiromonas Gingivalis, 19% Tannerella Forsitya versus 20% of Bicon© and Ankylos ® systems). In spite of the limits of our study, none two-piece implant system has been demonstrated to perfectly close the gap between implant and abutment.

Abstract
Periodontal disease (PD) is an inflammatory disease of the tissues supporting the teeth. PD affects 65 million adults over the age of 30 years in the USA, and worldwide 5 to 70% of adults. Women who develop PD during pregnancy, it's estimated 1 woman in 5, may have a higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. PD during pregnancy starts by dental plaque and is increased by the action of pregnancy hormones. In order to study the effect of PD on adverse pregnancy outcomes, we have performed this narrative review summarising the current studies about the influence of PD on pregnancy. Periodontal pockets are a reservoir of oral microbiota. Modifications in oral microbiota may be considered as a potential mechanism for developing PD during pregnancy. PD is surely caused by bacteria, but the progression and worsening are due to a host immune response. The inflammation caused by PD is not limited to the oral cavity. It is hypothesized that episodes of bacteraemia and dissemination of endotoxins from periodontal pockets can induce the activation of the systemic immune response. In conclusion our narrative review shows that there's no relationship between PD and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and PD treatment during pregnancy does not confer a general protection against adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal disease (PD) is a multifactorial illness in which environment and host interact. The genetic component plays a key role in the onset of PD. In fact the genetic compound can modulate the inflammation of the mucous membranes and the loss of alveolar bone. The genetics of PD is not well understood. Previous studies suggest a strong association between PD occurrence and individual genetic profile. The role of genetic susceptibility could impact on the clinical manifestations of PD, and consequently on prevention and therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genetic polymorphisms of VRD, IL6 and IL10 were investigated in Italian adults affected by PD. 571 cases classified according the criteria of the American Academy of Periodontology were included. All patients were Italian coming from three areas according to italian institute of statistics (ISTAT) (www.istat.it/it/archivio/regioni). The sample comprised 379 patients from North (66%), 152 from Central (26%) and 40 of South (8%). RESULTS No significant differences were found among allele distribution. CONCLUSION Chronic PD is a complex disease caused by a combination of genetic susceptibility, patients habits (oral hygiene, smoking, alcohol consumption) and oral pathogens. In our report no differences were detected among three Italian regions in allele distribution.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of some periodontal pathogens in Italian adults with chronic periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample consisted of 2992 patients with a clinical diagnosis of chronic periodontitis, based on the criteria of the American Academy of Periodontology, sampled in the period 2013-2016: 2108 patients were from Northern, 690 from Central and 194 from Southern Italy. Porphyromonas gengivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia were investigated in all patients of the present study, while Campylobacter rectus, Fusobacterium nucleatum and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans only in 2514 (84%) patients. Subgingival plaque samples of the four sites of greatest probing depth in each patient were used to obtain subgingival microbiota and then processed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Periodontal pathogens had the following presence respect to all amount of patients: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans 16.1%, Campylobacter rectus 73.4%, Fusobacterium nucleatum 93.8%, Porphyromonas gengivalis 65.5%, Treponema denticola 66.4%, and Tannerella forsythia 72.7%. There are no significant statistical differences among geographic areas both for the total bacterial and the single species except for T. Denticola and C. Rectus, which prevalence was significantly higher in Southern Italy (P value <.05). The other investigated species were equally distributed among different regions. A. actinomycetemcomitans was the rarer species detected in this study, while F. nucleatum was the commonest. No differences among areas where observed as regard of the mean bacterial load except for F. Nucleatum whose prevalence in Northern Italy was lower then both in Central and Southern Italy (P value <.05). CONCLUSIONS The results of our study didn't show different geographic distribution of periodontal pathogens among Italian population of the three areas investigated. The homogeneity of the results could be related to genetic and environmental factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the changes in bacterial profile along the transmucosal path of healing screws placed immediately after insertion of two-piece endosseus implants during the 4-month osseointegration phase, in absence of functional load. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two site-specific samples were collected at the peri-implant mucosa of the healing screws of 80 two-piece implants, for a total of 640 samples. Implants placement was performed following a single protocol with flapless technique, in order to limit bacterial contamination of the surgical site. Identical healing screws (5 mm diameter/4 mm height) were used for each of the 80 implants. During the 4 months of the study, the patients followed a standard oral care regimen with no special hygiene maneuvers at the collection sites. RESULTS The present research documents that during the 4-month period prior to application of function load the bacterial profile of all sites exhibited a clear prevalence of cocci at the interface between implant neck and osteoalveolar crest margin. CONCLUSIONS A potentially pathogenic bacterial flora developed only along the peri-implant transmucosal path.

Abstract
Purpose In this study we wanted to observe the improvement in the healing of periodontal tissues in a group of diabetic patients treated with traditional methods compared to another group treated with the addition of oxygen.The potential of oxygen has long been known in the field of plastic surgery, where it is used to treat burns and skin lesions. Materials and methods This study consists in a split mouth study which involved 30 patients. We carefully treated them with periodontal therapy using manual and mechanical instrumentation. Then, we applied oxygen in half mouth according to randomization list. Finally we checked up patients after some weeks. Results Our results highlight that all areas treated with oxygen application healed more rapidly and better than no treated areas. Conclusions All in all, we have demonstrated that oxygen can improve the outcome of non-surgical periodontal treatment in diabetic subjects.
