Dental Implantology Update archives from January 2007

Shanghai Kou Qiang Yi Xue: Evaluation of peri-implant augmentation with collected bone.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... The purpose of this study was to determine the amount of bone harvested from dental implant osteotomies with an Aspeo[R] 12000 bone collector, to characterize the nature of the debris, and to evaluate the histological viability and clinical...

Clin Oral Implants Res: Focal adhesion contact formation by fibroblasts cultured on surface-modified dental implants: an in vitro study.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... A major consideration in designing dental implants is to create a surface that provides strong attachment of the implant to bone, connective tissue, and epithelium. The aim of the present study was to examine the influence of different...

Clin Oral Impants Res: Clinical study of horizontal alveolar distraction with modified micro bone screws and subsequent implant placement.(Reprint)(Clinical report)
January 1, 2007... The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical relevance of horizontal distraction osteogenesis (DO) with bone micro screws for reconstructing knife-edge alveolar crests before implant placement. Horizontal DO was performed in upper and...

Clin Oral Impants Res: Comparison of clinical, radiographic and immunological parameters of teeth and different dental implant platforms.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... A comparison between host response in teeth and dental implants was not made. Likewise, the association between host response and periodontal parameters has never been explored. The purpose of this study was to compare periodontal health around...

Clin Oral Impants Res: Titanium surface modification and its effect on the adherence of Porphyromonas gingivalis: an in vitro study.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... Titanium dental implants are an important treatment option in the replacement of missing teeth. Implant failures can, however, occur and may be promoted by the loss of tissue as a result of local bacterial infection (peri-implantitis). ...

Head Face Med: Numerical simulation of in vivo intraosseous torsional failure of a hollow-screw oral implant.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... Owing to the complexity and magnitude of functional forces transferred to the bone-implant interface, the mechanical strength of the interface is of great importance. The purpose of this study was to determine the intraosseous torsional shear...

J Dent Res: Predicting clustered dental implant survival using frailty methods.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... The purpose of this study was to predict future implant survival using information on risk factors and on the survival status of an individual's existing implant(s). A total of 677 individuals having 2349 implants placed were included in...

Oral Surg Oral med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod: An analysis of peripheral giant cell granuloma associated with dental implant treatment.(Reprint)
January 1, 2007... This report discusses a 21-year-old male who developed a peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) associated with dental implant therapy, and reviews four previously reported cases of PGCGs associated with dental implant treatment. The...
