RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Regeneration of the missing papilla adjacent to single implants in the esthetic zone has always been challenging, despite advances in vertical hard and soft tissue regeneration. Orthodontic tooth extrusion has been shown to effectively gain alveolar bone and gingival tissue. This retrospective study evaluated the effectiveness of orthodontic tooth extrusion on regenerating missing papilla between existing maxillary anterior single implant and its adjacent tooth. METHODS: Patients who underwent orthodontic tooth extrusion to regenerate missing papilla adjacent to a single implant in the esthetic zone were included in this study. The gingival phenotype, orthodontic extrusion movement, proximal bone level, dento-implant papilla level, facial gingival level, mucogingival junction level, and keratinized tissue width, of the extruded tooth were recorded at pre-orthodontic extrusion (T0 ), post-orthodontic extrusion and retention (T1 ), and latest follow-up (T2 ). RESULTS: A total of 17 maxillary single tooth had orthodontic tooth extrusion to regenerate missing papilla adjacent to 14 maxillary anterior single implants in 14 patients. After a mean follow-up time of 48.4 months, implant success rate was 100% (14/14), with none of the orthodontically extruded teeth being extracted. After a mean extrusion and retention period of 14.3 months, a mean orthodontic extrusion movement of 4.62 ± 0.78 mm was noted with a mean proximal bone level gain of 3.54 ± 0.61 mm (77.0% efficacy), dento-implant papilla level gain of 3.98 ± 0.81 mm (86.8% efficacy), and facial gingival tissue gain of 4.27 mm ± 0.55 mm (93.4% efficacy). A mean keratinized tissue width gain of 4.17 ± 0.49 mm with minimal mean mucogingival junction level change of 0.10 ± 0.30 mm were observed. The efficacy of orthodontic eruption movement on dento-implant papilla gain was less in the thin (80.5%) phenotype group when compared with that in the thick (91.5%) phenotype group. CONCLUSIONS: Within the confines of this study, orthodontic extrusion is an effective, noninvasive method in regenerating mid-term stable proximal bone and papilla adjacent to maxillary anterior single implants. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This retrospective study presents a mid-term result on orthodontic extrusion as a mean to regenerate dento-implant papilla defect. The extended retention period following orthodontic extrusion showed stable and efficacious proximal bone and papilla gain.

OBJECTIVE: A scarf-shaped connective tissue graft can be placed at the facial and proximal aspect of the peri-implant soft tissue zone during immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) procedures in the esthetic zone to optimize implant esthetics without the need of flap reflection. This retrospective study evaluated soft tissue stability after scarf-connective tissue graft (S-CTG) in conjunction with IIPP procedures in the esthetic zone. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients who received IIPP with S-CTG with a minimum 1-year follow-up were evaluated. Mid-facial gingival level (MFGL) change and mid-facial gingival thickness (MFGT) change were measured and compared at the pre-op (T0), IIPP + S-CTG surgery (T1), follow up appointment with MFGT measurement (T2), and latest follow-up appointment (T3). Implant success rate and graft necrosis were also recorded. RESULTS: A total of 22 IIPP and S-CTG procedures in 20 patients were evaluated in the study. After a mean follow-up of 8.2 years (3.9-13.4) (T3), all implants remained osseointegrated (22/22 [100%]), with statistically insignificant mean midfacial gingival level change of -0.19 mm (-1.5 to 0.8). Statistically significant difference in midfacial gingival thickness (MFGT) was noted (2.5 mm [1.8-3.5 mm]) after a mean follow-up time (T2) of 2.3 years (1-8.6) when compared with MFGT at baseline (1.1 mm [0.6-1.3 mm]) (T1). Necrosis of S-CTG during initial healing phase was noted in 9% (2/22) of the sites. CONCLUSIONS: Within the confines of this study, scarf-connective tissue graft at time of immediate implant placement and provisionalization can thicken the gingiva and maintain the gingival level at the critical soft tissue zone. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Managing the soft tissue zone is as important as that of the hard tissue zone for peri-implant esthetics. Connective tissue graft is one of the methods that can enhance the final esthetic outcomes. This retrospective study has demonstrated that Scarf-CTG technique is an effective treatment modality to maintain soft tissue stability.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Screw access channels that emerge on the facial aspect of anterior screw-retained implant crowns can compromise esthetics. Recently, angled screw channels (ASCs) have been developed that can alter screw access channel angulations to improve esthetics. While ASCs can be used on narrow-diameter implants, information is limited on the loss of abutment screw torque on narrow-diameter implants with ASCs. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the loss of abutment screw torque after thermocycling and the cyclic loading of ASCs from 3 different companies connected to narrow-diameter implants. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 40 narrow-diameter implants (NobelReplace Conical Connection 3.5×11.5 mm) were mounted individually in acrylic resin blocks and divided equally into 4 groups. The first group, NB-0 (Control), consisted of screw-retained zirconia crowns fabricated on ASCs at 0-degree angulation (n=10). The other 3 groups consisted of a total of 30 screw-retained zirconia crowns fabricated on ASCs at 20-degree angulation: NB-20 (Angulated Screw Channel Solutions), ATL-20 (Atlantis Custom Base Solution with angulated screw access), and DA-20 (Dynamic TiBase). Each crown was secured on the mounted implant with its corresponding titanium base insert and screw and then tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque with a digital torque gauge. The initial reverse torque value (RTVI) was obtained and recorded at baseline. Subsequently, a new set of screws were tightened to recommended values, and each specimen underwent thermocycling and then cyclic loading at 0 to 100 N at 10 Hz for 1 million cycles to simulate 1year of functional loading. After cyclic loading, the final reverse torque values (RTVF) were recorded and compared with the RTVI to evaluate the percentage torque loss (PTLF). Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis analysis, Rank base analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and the Tukey HSD post hoc comparisons (α=.05). RESULTS: Significant differences were found for the PTLF among all groups after cyclic loading (P<.001). The PTLF in ATL-20 (51.4%) was significantly higher than in NB-0 (22.2%) (P<.001) and NB-20 (29.2%) (P=.010). No significant difference was found in the PTLF among other groups (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS: The abutment screw torque loss after cyclic loading of the ASCs on narrow diameter implants among the 4 groups did not perform comparably. The largest percentage torque loss was recorded for the ATL-20 group. The NB-20 group demonstrated the lowest percentage torque loss. DA-20 showed percentage torque loss less than ATL-20; however, its RTVF was the lowest.

The socket shield technique and subepithelial connective tissue graft following immediate implant placement with provisionalization had been advocated for peri-implant facial contour and gingival architecture preservation. This case report used three-dimensional volumetric analysis to longitudinally assess the peri-implant facial contour change before and after these procedures. The results demonstrated comparable and acceptable preservation of peri-implant facial contour between the two procedures after 2 years of function.

The purpose of this study is to compare the exposure rate of 3 different barrier types after a guided-bone regeneration procedure as well as to compare the percentage grafted bone dimensional loss with and without exposed barriers. Patient records from September 2007 to May 2015 were reviewed to identify subjects who had received a bone graft followed by implant placement procedure after the graft had completely healed. The subjects were divided into 3 groups: (1) resorbable barrier, (2) nonresorbable barrier, and (3) titanium-mesh barrier. Incidences of barrier exposure were recorded. Cone-beam computerized tomography images before treatment (T0), right after grafting (T1), and after healing (T2) were used to determine the percentage of grafted bone dimensional loss and am quantitative amount of grafted bone remaining (mm2). Three cross-sectioned areas, at 1-mm apart, of preplanned implant positions at the grafted site were measured using cone-beam computerized tomography to calculate the remaining grafted bone and grafted bone dimensional change. The exposure rate of all guided bone regeneration was 36.9%. The exposure rate of the resorbable barrier (23.3%) was significantly lower than titanium mesh (68.9%) and nonresorbable (72.7%; χ2, P < .001). The results of this study revealed that barrier types have a significant effect on the exposure rate. There was also a significant difference in grafted bone dimensional loss between sites with barrier exposure (58.3%) and sites with no barrier exposure (44.1%) during the healing period (Mann-Whitney U test, P = .008).

The purpose of this study was to compare heat and sound generated during implant osteotomy when different types of drill were used in artificial bone and bovine bone blocks. A total of 80 implant osteotomies were formed using 4 implant drilling systems: N1 (OsseoShaper) (Nobel), NobelActive (Nobel), V3 (MIS), and BLX (Straumann) in both artificial bone and bovine bone blocks. Thermocouple probes were used to record temperature change at the depths of 5.0 mm and 13.0 mm of each implant osteotomy formed by the final drill. In addition, thermographic images, drilling sound, and drilling time were recorded and evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed at α = 0.05. The mean temperature changes as recorded by thermocouple probes and thermocamera were significantly lower in OsseoShaper than most other drill-bone combinations (P < .05). The mean drilling times and sound generation for OsseoShaper were significantly higher and lower than most other drill-bone combinations (P < .05), respectively. Minimal heat and sound generation can be expected when implant osteotomies are performed using OsseoShaper at a low rotational speed (50 rpm) even without irrigation. However, extended drilling time is required.

This 1-year prospective study evaluated horizontal and vertical facial gingival tissue changes after immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) with and without bone graft in the implant-socket gap (ISG). During IIPP, 10 patients received bone graft material in the ISG (G group), while the other 10 patients did not (NG group). The implants were evaluated for implant stability quotient (ISQ), modified plaque index (mPI), modified bleeding index (mBI), marginal bone level (MBL), facial gingival level (FGL), and facial gingival profile (FGP) changes. The mean ISQ value at 9-month follow-up was statistically significantly greater than on the day of implant surgery (P < .05). The mPI and mBI scores demonstrated that patients were able to maintain a good level of hygiene. There were no statistically significant differences in the mean MBL changes between the G and NG groups (P > .05). There were statistically significant differences in FGL changes between the G (-0.77 mm) and NG (-1.35 mm) groups (P = .035). There were no statistically significant differences in FGP changes between the G and NG groups (P > .05). However, statistically significant differences were noted in FGP change between the 3-12 and 0-12 month intervals in both groups (P < .05). Within the limitations of this study, although no significant differences were noted in FGP changes between groups, G group experienced significantly less FGL changes than NG group. Bone graft material placement into ISG seems to be advantageous for tissue preservation during IIPP. However, future long-term studies, with larger sample size, are needed to validate the efficacy of such procedure.

Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) surgical guides can be used by the clinician and dental technician to create a definitive cast before surgery, thereby allowing an indirect interim restoration to be fabricated. However, the accurate transfer of the interim restoration from the laboratory to the surgical site requires a precise interface between components. This article reports the prosthetic significance of adhesive residue on the intaglio surface of the CAD-CAM surgical guide sleeve, which can create errors in the implant analog position of the definitive cast. A technique for identifying the presence of residue and its careful removal are also introduced.

OBJECTIVES: This 1-year prospective study evaluated the implant success rate and marginal bone response of non-submerged implants with platform and non-platform switching abutments in posterior healed sites. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Nineteen patients (9 male, 10 female) with posterior partially edentulous spaces, between the ages of 23 and 76 (mean = 55.4 years), were included in this study. A total of 30 implants (15 implants restored with platform switching [PS] abutments [control] and 15 implants restored with non-platform switching [NPS] abutments [test]) were assigned between two groups using a randomization procedure. The definitive abutments with conical connections were placed at the time of surgery, and the definitive restorations were placed at 3 months. All patients were evaluated clinically and radiographically using standardized radiographs at time of implant placement (0), 3, 6 and 12 months after implant placement. Data were analyzed using Friedman test with post hoc pairwise comparisons, Mann-Whitney U-test, and Pearson's chi-square test at the significance level of α = 0.05. RESULTS: At 12 months, all 30 implants remained osseointegrated corresponding to a 100% success rate. The overall mean marginal bone level change at 12 months was -0.04 ± 0.08 mm for PS group and -0.19 ± 0.16 mm for NPS group. Statistically significant difference in the marginal bone level change was observed between groups at 0 to 12 months and 3 to 12 months (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: This 1-year randomized control study suggests that when a conical implant-abutment connection is present, similar peri-implant tissue responses can be achieved with platform switching and non-platform switching abutments.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Even though high-precision technologies have been used in computer-guided implant surgery, studies have shown that linear and angular deviations between the planned and placed implants can be expected. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of operator experience on the accuracy of implant placement with a computer-guided surgery protocol. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Ten surgically experienced and 10 surgically inexperienced operators participated in this study. Each operator placed 1 dental implant (Replace Select) on the partially edentulous mandibular model that had been planned with software by following a computer-guided surgery (NobelGuide) protocol. Three-dimensional information of the planned and placed implants were then superimposed. The horizontal and vertical linear deviations at both the apex and platform levels and the angular deviation were measured and compared between the experienced and inexperienced groups with the independent t test with Bonferroni adjustment (α=.01). The magnitude and direction of the horizontal deviations were also measured and recorded. RESULTS: No significant differences were found in the angular and linear deviations between the 2 groups (P>.01). Although not statistically significant (P>.01), the amount of vertical deviation in the coronal direction of the implants placed by the inexperienced operators was about twice that placed by the experienced operators. Overall, buccal apical deviations were most frequent and of the highest magnitude. CONCLUSIONS: When a computer-guided protocol was used, the accuracy of the vertical dimension (depth of implant placement) was most influenced by the operator's level of experience.

Maintaining facial soft tissue contour and inter-implant papilla are challenging for implants in the esthetic zone. To counteract the inevitable hard and soft tissue changes after tooth extraction, the socket shield technique (SST) has been advocated as means to maintain the facial and/or interproximal osseous and gingival architecture. Because SST is a technique-sensitive procedure, various complications related to SST have been reported.

This retrospective study investigates the efficacy of the socket shield (SS) in preserving inter-implant papilla and bone in anterior adjacent implant sites. Clinical and radiographic records of 23 patients were evaluated. A total of 31 implants were placed immediately into extraction sockets with SS, resulting in 26 inter-implant sites, and 7 implants were placed without SS. After a mean follow-up of 41.5 months (range: 12 to 124 months), 30/31 (96.8%) implants with SS and 7/7 (100%) implants without SS were clinically successful. The mean changes in inter-implant papilla and bone heights were -0.40 mm and -0.46 mm, respectively. The effects of implant placement timing and the socket shield number, shape, and crestal level on inter-implant tissue height changes were found to be insignificant (P > .05). Supracrestal shield level (31.6% vs 16.6% in equicrestal), U-shape shield (41.2% vs 7.1% in C-shape), and shield-to-implant contact (40.0% vs 12.5% in no contact) were associated with increased occurrence of exposures. The application of SS in adjacent anterior implant situations is a viable treatment option for maintaining inter-implant papilla.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) study was to determine the frequency percentage of screw-retained crown using angulated screw channel (ASC) abutment for single immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) in the esthetic zone. METHODS: The CBCT images of 200 patients without disease and without metal restorations in maxillary anterior teeth were evaluated. The mid-sagittal-sectional CBCT images of maxillary anterior teeth (#6-#11) were created in an implant planning software, screen-captured, and transferred to a presentation program. Template of tapered implants with diameter of 3.5 mm (for central and lateral incisors) and 4.3 mm (for central incisors and canines) and lengths of 13, 15, and 18 mm were applied to the sagittal images to identify the IIPP cases. To qualify for IIPP, the implant must engage >35% bone with at least 1 mm of surrounding bone and no perforations. The IIPP cases were further divided into straight screw channel (IIPPSSC) abutment or 25-degree angulated screw channel abutment (IIPPASC), based upon its restorability. The frequency percentages of possible IIPP, IIPPSSC, and IIPPASC were reported and compared among all maxillary anterior teeth. RESULTS: A total of 1200 maxillary anterior teeth sagittal images from 200 patients (88 male and 112 female) with a mean age of 51.3 years (range 20-83 years) were evaluated in this study. The overall frequency percentages of IIPP, IIPPSSC, and IIPPASC possibility were 84% (74%-92%), 14% (10%-24%), and 75% (66%-87%), respectively. CONCLUSION: Within the limitations of this CBCT study, 90% of single IIPP in the esthetic zone can be restored with screw-retained crown when utilizing ASC. In addition, the possibility of using a screw-retained restoration following IIPP increases about five times with ASC abutment compared to the SSC abutment.

An intact extraction socket has been considered a prerequisite for an immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) procedure. Recent studies, however, have shown successful outcomes when IIPP was performed in sockets with a facial bone wall defect. This retrospective study evaluated the facial implant mucosal stability following IIPP in extraction sockets with a facial bone wall defect in the esthetic zone. The study included 16 cases in 16 patients who received maxillary anterior single IIPP with contour bone graft (C-BG) and contour connective tissue graft (C-CTG) in compromised extraction sockets (V- or U-shaped defect). After a mean follow-up of 6 years, the implant success rate was 100% (16/16). Minimal and non-statistically significant changes were noted in the facial implant mucosal and marginal bone level. Statistically significant changes were observed in facial implant mucosal thickness gain (2.5 mm [1.8 mm to 3.5 mm]) and midfacial bone sounding reduction (6 mm). Within the confines of this study, IIPP with simultaneous C-BG and C-CTG in fresh extraction sockets exhibiting a V- or U-shaped facial bone wall defect can lead to long-term successful outcomes in terms of mucosal stability, contour bone gain, and marginal bone level stability.

PURPOSE: Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) is an option for reconstructing mandibular continuity defects. A challenge of this technique is the need to maintain sufficient space to avoid compression of the defect. A compression-resistant matrix (CRM) provides a bulking agent that provides support during the bone formation phase. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirteen Rhesus Macaque monkeys were used to evaluate different forms of an osteoconductive bulking agent compared with an absorbable collagen alone placed into a critical-sized mandibular defect. A total of 5 groups (26 defects) were evaluated: group A, rhBMP-2/absorbable collagen sponge (ACS) (1.5 mg/mL); group B, rhBMP-2/ACS with ceramic granules (15% hydroxyapatite/85% ß-tricalcium phosphate) at 1.5 mg/mL; group C, rhBMP-2 (2.0 mg/mL) with a CRM; group D, rhBMP-2 (0.75 mg/mL) with a CRM; and group E, a CRM alone. RESULTS: Histology and micro computed tomography were used to evaluate and compare new bone formation in the defects. The reconstructed bone was evaluated with regard to the new bone formation, residual voids, and density. Animals treated with the CRM and rhBMP-2 at 2.0 mg/mL (group C) showed significantly higher amounts of new bone formation, bone density, and reduced voids when compared with rhBMP-2 and ACS (1.5 mg/mL) (P < .05). CONCLUSION: The carrier system CRM combined with rhBMP-2 and a reconstruction plate results in significantly higher bone density and better space maintenance than rhBMP-2 combined with ACS in a nonhuman primate mandibular bone repair model.

This study evaluated the success rates of 50 full-arch maxillary and/or mandibular implant-supported fixed complete dentures. After a mean follow-up time of 42.1 months, 269 implants remained in function, which corresponded to cumulative implant success rates of 85.2% and an absolute success rate of 90.6% (269/297 implants). This study suggested that higher implant failure rates might be associated with a dental history of bruxism (29.3%) vs no history of bruxism (4.6%) and surgeons with limited experience (≤5 years; 12.2%) vs surgeons with experience (2.4%).

The aim of this study was to determine the proximity of the nasopalatine canal (NPC) to the maxillary central incisor root (MCIR). The study included 120 cone beam computed tomography scans obtained from the Center for Implant Dentistry, Loma Linda University, between June 2006 and September 2009. They were equally distributed into six groups: (1) 21- to 40-year-old men, (2) 21- to 40-year-old women, (3) 41- to 60-year-old men, (4) 41- to 60-year-old women, (5) 61- to 80-year-old men, and (6) 61- to 80-year-old women. The closest distances between the NPC and the MCIR (NPC-to-MCIR) were measured at the midroot (bisecting palatal cementoenamel junction to root apex) and the apex levels. Differences between the groups were analyzed using a t test and 1-way analysis of variance at a significance level of α = .05. The overall mean NPC-to-MCIR distances at the midroot and apex levels were 3.05 ± 1.64 and 5.22 ± 1.56 mm, respectively. The modes of the NPC-to-MCIR distances at the midroot and apex levels were in the range of 1.01-2.00 mm and 4.01-5.00 mm, respectively. The mean NPC-to-MCIR distance was significantly greater in men than in women at the midroot level (P < .05) but not at the apex level (P > .05). The mean NPC-to-MCIR distance was significantly shorter for the youngest age group than the other two age groups at the midroot level (P < .05). However, at the apex level, the youngest age group had a significantly shorter distance compared with the oldest age group (P < .05) but not the middle age group (P > .05). The results of this study suggest that, to avoid NPC penetration, more care must be exercised during immediate implant placement at the midroot level of a maxillary central incisor in women and younger patients because of the root proximity to the NPC. Tapered implants may also be beneficial in such situations.

In this clinical report, following computer-guided (3D Procera Software Planning Program, Nobel Biocare, Yorba Linda, CA) placement and immediate provisionalization of 12 dental implants (NobelSpeedy™ Replace, Nobel Biocare), misfits of the prefabricated screw-retained interim prostheses were noted at several implant-abutment junctions. Nevertheless, adaptation of the misfits was observed 10 days later, after the loosened screws were tightened. While a high mean marginal bone loss of 2.1 mm (range: 1.4 to 3.5 mm) was noted, all implants remained osseointegrated at 3-year follow-up.

It is challenging for implants in the esthetic zone to maintain the facial soft tissue contour and interimplant papillae. To counteract the inevitable hard and soft tissue changes after tooth extraction, the socket shield technique (SST) has been advocated as means to maintain the facial and/or interproximal osseous and gingival architecture. As SST is a technique-sensitive procedure, various complications related to SST have been reported. This article presents a unique complication after a socket shield procedure and a novel management of the complication.
