RESUMO
AIM: To systematically identify, synthesize and critically summarize the available scientific evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding whether short (≤6 mm) perform as well as long (≥10 mm) implants regarding implant survival, marginal bone loss, and biologic and prosthetic complications in different clinical scenarios. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool and the GRADE approach were applied. Results were synthesized using random-effects meta-analyses assessed by trial sequential analyses. RESULTS: Forty reports on 19 RCTs comprising 2214 (1097 short; 1117 long) implants were included. Moderate/high certainty/quality evidence demonstrated similar 5-year survival rates for ≤6-mm and ≥10-mm implants in non-augmented bone and full-mouth rehabilitation in either jaw, and for 6-mm implants in the maxilla instead of sinus lift. Nevertheless, the evidence for 5-year survival rates remains inconclusive or insufficient for the remaining combinations of implant lengths and clinical scenarios. They include 4-mm and 5-mm implants as alternatives to sinus lift as well as placing all implant lengths ≤6 mm instead of vertical ridge augmentation with long implants. Marginal bone level and short- and long-term biologic or prosthetic complications were similar. CONCLUSIONS: Based on moderate/high certainty/quality evidence from 5-year RCTs, implants ≤6 mm may be viable alternatives to ≥10-mm implants in either jaw in native bone and full-arch rehabilitation, and 6-mm implants may be used as an alternative to sinus lift.

This retrospective study aimed to describe the facially oriented crestal incision (FOCIS) and assess the incidence of flap dehiscence and its efficacy in simultaneous and staged guided bone regeneration (GBR) procedures. The data of 41 patients treated with FOCIS GBR were analyzed. The primary outcome analyzed was the rate of initial wound closure. Secondary outcomes were related clinical parameters, including mean resolution of dehiscences and fenestrations, crestal buccal bone thickness (BBT), and bone width (BW) increase. A total of 53 implants were placed. The initial wound closure rate was 92.7% (38/41) and 94.3% (50/53) at the patient and implant levels, respectively. The complete dehiscence resolution rate was 79.31%, and the mean dehiscence reduction was 3.12 ± 2.46 mm (95% CI: 2.19 to 4.06 mm). BBT had a mean increase of 1.22 ± 1.07 mm (95% CI: 0.86 to 1.59 mm), and the final BBT was an average of 1.56 ± 0.79 mm (95% CI: 1.32 to 1.80 mm). Lastly, BW increase averaged 3.38 ± 1.49 mm (95% CI: 2.58 to 4.17 mm) for the staged cases. Utilizing FOCIS at partially edentulous sites can help achieve and maintain wound closure in horizontal GBR procedures.

OBJECTIVE: To provide a contemporary and comprehensive overview of the hard and soft tissue biological structures surrounding an osseointegrated dental implant (peri-implant referred to as the peri-implant phenotype), in the context of peri-implant esthetic complications. OVERVIEW: The individual components of the peri-implant phenotype (keratinized mucosa width, mucosal thickness, supracrestal tissue height, and the peri-implant buccal bone) have been linked to different aspects of implant esthetics, as well as health-related aspects. At the time of implant therapy, respecting the biology of the peri-implant hard and soft tissues, and anticipating their remodeling patterns can alleviate future esthetic complications. CONCLUSIONS: While the current literature may not allow for a point-by-point evidence based-recommendation for the required amount of each peri-implant structure, bearing in mind the proposed values for the components of the peri-implant phenotype, at the time of and prior to implant therapy can lead to more predictable treatment outcomes, and the avoidance of esthetic complications. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Knowledge of hard and soft tissue components surrounding and osseointegrated dental implant, and their underlying biological remodeling process is crucial for carrying out a successful therapy and alleviating possible future esthetic challenges.
