Early loading of non-submerged titanium implants with a sandblasted and acid-etched surface. 5-year results of a prospective study in partially edentulous patients.
274
TL;DR: This prospective study using an early loading protocol with 6 weeks of healing demonstrated that titanium implants with the SLA surface can achieve and maintain successful tissue integration with high predictability for at least 5 years of follow-up in selected patients and sites.

Abstract: Objectives: The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the success rate of titanium screw-type implants with the sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) surface loaded early, after 6 weeks of healing.
Material and methods: A total of 104 implants were inserted into posterior sites of 51 partially edentulous patients exhibiting bone densities of class I–III. After a healing period of 6 weeks, all implants were functionally loaded with cemented crowns or fixed partial dentures. The patients were recalled at 3, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months for clinical and radiographic examination.
Results: One implant failed to integrate during healing, and three implants were lost to follow-up and were considered drop-outs. The remaining 100 implants showed favorable clinical and radiographic findings at the 5-year examination. The peri-implant soft tissues were stable over time; the mean probing depths and mean attachment levels did not change during the follow-up period. None of the radiographs exhibited signs of continuous peri-implant radiolucency, which confirmed ankylotic stability for all 100 implants. The measurement of the bone crest levels (DIB values) indicated stability as well. Based on strict success criteria, all 100 implants were considered successfully integrated, resulting in a 5-year success rate of 99%.
Conclusion: This prospective study using an early loading protocol with 6 weeks of healing demonstrated that titanium implants with the SLA surface can achieve and maintain successful tissue integration with high predictability for at least 5 years of follow-up in selected patients and sites.

A Study of Electro-Discharge-Sintering of Ti-6Al-4V Spherical Powders Doped with Hydroxyapatite by Spex Milling and Its Consolidation Characteristics
TL;DR: In this paper, a single pulse of 0.75-2.0 kJ/0.7 g of the Ti-6Al-4V powders doped with HAp from 300 mF capacitor was applied to produce fully porous and porous-surfaced Ti 6Al 4V implant compact by electro-discharge-sintering (EDS).

TL;DR: It is argued that the mean CBL was even lower than the 1.2 mm obtained in this study, as this value was compensated with implants that had what was called “supra-boundary bone”.
Socket shield technique and delayed implant placement in maxilla: a series of five case reports
TL;DR: In this paper , a case series was conducted to assess the clinical, radiographic, and esthetic outcomes of the delayed placed implants associated with previously prepared socket shield at 3-15 months follow-up after loading.
Digital Workflow for Implant Placement and Immediate Chairside Provisionalization of a Novel Implant System without Abutment—A Case Report
TL;DR: In this article , a CAD/CAM-assisted implant placement with immediate provisionalization is described, where the implant is directly screw-retained without an abutment, and a case report describes the digital planning; the immediate, static, computer assisted implant surgery, and the immediate chairside provisionalization of a novel implant system.

The microbiota associated with successful or failing osseointegrated titanium implants.
TL;DR: It is suggested that “periimplantitis” be regarded as a site specific infection which yields many features in common with chronic adult periodontitis.
