Clinical Performance of Implant-Supported Prostheses in the Rehabilitation of Patients Previously Treated for Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (MRONJ): A Systematic Review
PMID: 38966469

There is a lack of consensus on managing resultant bone and soft tissue defects or on restoring oral function and aesthetics following medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) lesion healing. This clinical challenge presents a dilemma for practitioners. Removable prostheses pose a recurrence risk if poorly fitted and may inadequately restore function or aesthetics in cases of significant bone defect. Dental implant-supported prostheses could enhance function and quality of life, though their risks and indications are not well-defined. This systematic review examines the clinical outcomes and complications associated with implant-supported rehabilitations post-MRONJ surgery. This study was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement recommendations and it was pre-registered in the Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42023492539).

Enhancing the correlation between in vitro and in vivo experiments in dental implant osseointegration: investigating the role of Ca ions
PMID: 38412455

This study delves into the osteogenic potential of a calcium-ion modified titanium implant surface, unicCa, employing state-of-the-art proteomics techniques both in vitro (utilizing osteoblasts and macrophage cell cultures) and in vivo (in a rabbit condyle model).

[5.5 mm implant. A solution for severe atrophies without sacrificing predictability]
PMID: 38390603

The rehabilitation of areas of the maxilla and mandible with extreme resorption is a fact of increased presence in our dental practice. Surgical techniques such as short and extra-short implants facilitate the resolution of these clinical cases. In this clinical case report we develop a case rehabilitated using a 5.5 mm long implant and we provide a biomechanical study of the behaviour of implants with these characteristics.

Narrow dental implants are commonly used to restore narrow alveolar ridges. Although the good performance of narrow dental implants supporting multiple prostheses has been repeatedly demonstrated, there are few studies analyzing their performance in a long-term follow-up together with the influence of the loading protocol. Thus, the objective was to assess the influence of implant loading protocol (immediate vs delayed) on the long-term outcomes of 3.0-mm-diameter dental implants supporting fixed multiple prostheses.

Single-Unit Short Implants in the Molar Region: A Retrospective Study with a Minimum 3-Year Follow-up

The high biomechanical loads in molar region wounds challenge the indication for short implants to be used as a single-unit implant. This study reports on the outcomes of single-unit short implants (≤ 8.0 mm) in the maxillary and mandibular molar regions. Forty-nine short implants were placed in 48 patients to replace a missing molar tooth.

The application of the counter-torque technique has been proposed as a conservative and atraumatic alternative for the explantation of nonmobile dental implants. The objective of this report is to assess the performance of this technique in a large number of patients.

Composite alginate-gelatin hydrogels incorporating PRGF enhance human dental pulp cell adhesion, chemotaxis and proliferation
PMID: 35247496

The increasing prevalence of tissue injuries is fueling the development of autologous biological treatments for regenerative medicine. Here, we investigated the potential of three different bioinks based on the combination of gelatin and alginate (GA), enriched in either hydroxyapatite (GAHA) or hydroxyapatite and PRGF (GAHAP), as a favorable microenvironment for human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs)
