RESUMO
BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the clinical benefits of adding NanoBone® with split-crest technique and simultaneous implant placement covered with platelet-rich fibrin membrane in horizontally deficient maxillary ridges in terms of crestal and horizontal bone changes and patient morbidity. METHODS: Forty patients indicated for maxillary ridge splitting and simultaneous implant placement were assigned randomly to the study groups: control group (Platelet Rich Fibrin membrane) and test group (Platelet Rich Fibrin membrane + Nanobone®). The Cone Beam Computed Tomography Fusion technique was utilized to assess crestal and horizontal bone changes after five months of the surgical procedure. Patient morbidity was recorded for one week post-surgical. RESULTS: Five months post-surgical, buccal crestal bone resorption was 1.26 ± 0.58 mm for the control group and 1.14 ± 0.63 mm for the test group. Lingual crestal bone resorption was 1.40 ± 0.66 mm for the control group and 1.47 ± 0.68 mm for the test group. Horizontal bone width gain was 1.46 ± 0.44 mm for the control group and 1.29 ± 0.73 mm for the test group. There was no significant statistical difference between study groups regarding crestal and horizontal bone changes and patient morbidity. CONCLUSIONS: The tomographic assessment of NanoBone® addition in this study resulted in no statistically significant difference between study groups regarding crestal and horizontal bone changes and patient morbidity. More randomized controlled clinical trials on gap fill comparing different bone grafting materials versus no grafting should be conducted. GOV REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT02836678, 13th January 2017.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to analyze and compare three-dimensional volumetric bone changes and stability of simultaneously placed dental implants following sinus augmentation using deproteinized human demineralized tooth matrix (dpDTM) and deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM). METHODS: Twenty-four patients who required lateral maxillary sinus floor augmentation with simultaneous dental implant placement were randomly assigned to receive either dpDTM (n = 12) or DBBM (n = 12). Cone-beam computed tomography and resonance frequency analysis of implant stability were conducted immediately after surgery and 6 months postoperatively. Changes in the graft sinus floor and graft height volumes in the sagittal and coronal views, along with the implant stability quotient (ISQ), were analyzed and compared. RESULTS: Volumetric graft alteration was comparable between dpDTM (120.33 ± 77.48 mm3) and DBBM (108.51 ± 65.15 mm3) (p = 0.690). Reduction in the average graft height was also comparable: dpDTM group ranged from - 0.59 to - 0.93 mm and the DBBM group ranged from - 0.55 to - 0.82 mm (p > 0.05) at most examined levels. However, greater reduction in the mesial-graft height occurred in the dpDTM group (- 1.08 ± 0.70 mm vs. -0.58 ± 0.39 mm, p = 0.04). The ISQ values increased similarly in both groups to reach 70 at 6 months. CONCLUSION: dpDTM demonstrated comparable stability in graft volume and height during the healing process compared to DBBM and could serve as a viable alternative to DBBM for sinus floor augmentation with simultaneous implant placement.

BACKGROUND: Dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is commonly used to evaluate cancellous bone density before dental implant surgery. However, to our knowledge, no measurement approach has been standardized yet. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between three different regions of interest (ROI) methods on cancellous bone density at the dental implant site using dental CBCT images. METHODS: Patients' dental CBCT images (n = 300) obtained before dental implant surgery were processed using Mimics (Materialise, Leuven, Belgium). At the potential implant sites, the rectangle, cylinder, and surrounding cylinder ROI methods were used to measure bone density. Repeated measures one-way analysis of variance was performed to compare the three ROI methods in terms of measurement results. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to identify the likely pair-wise correlations between the three ROI methods. RESULTS: The density value obtained using the surrounding cylinder approach (grayscale value [GV],523.56 ± 228.03) was significantly higher than the values obtained using the rectangle (GV, 497.04 ± 236.69) and cylinder (GV,493 ± 231.19) ROI methods in terms of results. Furthermore, significant correlations were noted between the ROI methods (r > 0.965; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The density measured using the surrounding cylinder method was the highest. The choice of method may not influence the trends of measurement results. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of China Medical University Hospital, No. CMUH111-REC3-205. Informed consent was waived by the Institutional Review Board of China Medical University Hospital, CMUH111-REC3-205, owing to the retrospective nature of the study.

OBJECTIVES: A randomized controlled clinical trial of dental implants was conducted to compare the clinical properties of a novel electrochemically deposited calcium phosphate coating to those of a common marketed surface treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Forty implants of the same brand and type were placed in 20 fully edentulous participants requiring mandibular implantation. The two study groups were defined by the surface treatment of the implants. 20 implants in the control group were coated via a commercial electrochemical surface treatment that forms a mixture of brushite and hydroxyapatite, while the remaining 20 in the test group were coated with a novel electrochemical Smart Bioactive Trabecular Coating (SBTC®). A split-mouth design was employed, with each participants receiving one control implant in one mandibular side and a test implant in the other. To mitigate potential operator-handedness bias, control and test implants were randomly assigned to mandibular sides. All cases underwent digital planning, implant placement with a static surgical guide, and participants received locator-anchored full-arch dentures. The primary outcome was implant stability (measured using Osstell ISQ) assessed at insertion, loading, and then 3 months, 9 months, and 2 years post-insertion. The secondary outcome was bone level change (in millimeters) over the 2-year observation period. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQL) was monitored using the OHIP-14 questionnaire. Complications and adverse events were recorded. RESULTS: Successful osseointegration and implant stability were achieved in all cases, allowing loading. ISQ values steadily increased throughout the observation period. While no significant differences were observed between the SBTC® and control coatings, the test group exhibited a higher ISQ gain. Bone resorption was somewhat lower in the SBTC® but not significantly so. Patients' OHRQL significantly improved after denture delivery and remained stable throughout the follow-up. No complications or adverse events were observed. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the study results, we conclude that the new surface treatment is a safe alternative to the widely used control surface, demonstrating similar osseointegrative properties and time-dependent bone level changes. Further research may explore the broader implications of these findings. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study is registered on clinicaltrials.gov under the identifier ID: NCT06034171.

INTRODUCTION: Over the years, implant therapy has been a commonly used treatment option for individuals who are partially or totally edentulous, with a long-term success rate of over 90%. With significant advancements in biomaterials and technology, implant dentistry can now conduct prosthetic rehabilitations in the majority of patients catering to all types of needs. However, in order to meet the demands of a patient base that is always growing, new trends in implantology are emerging in recent years that are focused on minimally invasive surgery and financial sustainability. In certain clinical scenarios, connecting teeth and implants to support fixed partial prosthesis (FPPs) may be a predictable and workable course of treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 22 patients were selected for this study who had tooth and implant supported prosthesis placed as a final restoration. Out of these 22 patients; 12 were male and 10 were female patients. Implants were placed following proper protocol and if grafting procedures were required they were carried out. A second stage surgical procedure was carried out and delayed loading protocols were followed. The statistical analysis was done using the IBM SPSS 24.0, Chicago, USA. The survival of the implants and teeth were measured by the Kaplan Meier survival scale. Bone loss was assessed at baseline(upon loading), 12 months and 24 months. RESULTS: The implant survival rate was measured at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months. At 24 months, one implant showed failure, so the survival rate of the implants were 95.4%. Bone loss of 1 mm was seen around one implant at 12 months. Bone loss of 1 and 2 mm was present around two implants and one implant respectively at 24 months. CONCLUSION: From the results of this study, we can conclude that tooth implant supported prosthesis show very good survival when used in rehabilitation cases.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the suitability, accuracy, and reliability of a non-invasive 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging technique (3 T-MRI) for the visualization of maxillary sinus grafts in comparison to conventional, X-ray-based, established standard imaging techniques. METHODS: A total of eight patients with alveolar bone atrophy who required surgical sinus floor augmentation in the course of dental implantation were included in this pilot study. Alongside pre-operative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), 3 T-MRI was performed before and 6 months after sinus floor augmentation. Two investigators measured the maxillary sinus volume preoperatively and after bone augmentation. RESULTS: In all cases, MRI demonstrated accurately the volumes of the maxillary sinus grafts. Following surgery, the bony structures suitable for an implant placement increased at an average of 4.89 cm3, corresponding with the decrease of the intrasinusidal volumes. In general, interexaminer discrepancies were low and without statistical significance. CONCLUSION: In this preliminary study, we could demonstrate the feasibility of MRI bone volume measurement as a radiation-free alternative with comparable accuracy to CT/CBCT before procedures like sinus floor augmentation. Nevertheless, costs and artifacts, also present in MRI, have to be taken into account. Larger studies will be necessary to justify the practicability of MRI bone volume evaluation.

INTRODUCTION: The radiographic examination of alveolar bone using 3D radiographic examination is essential in dental implant treatment planning. Our study aimed to systematically review and quantitatively analyze the correlation between alveolar bone parameters, specifically bone density and cortical bone thickness, assessed using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and/or multidetector computed tomography (MDCT); and primary implant stability (PIS) determined using implant stability quotient (ISQ), Periotest® value (PTV), and insertion torque value (ITV). METHODS: This review was registered in the PROSPERO database (registration number CRD42022307245). An electronic literature search was conducted on the PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science databases for papers published until February 2022. The Quality Assessment in Prognostic Studies (QUIPS) tool was used to assess risk of bias. Meta-analyses were conducted to calculate the estimated average correlation coefficient based on a multilevel random-effects model, followed by subgroup analysis. RESULTS: Twenty-six studies were included in this review, consisting of 17 prospective cohort studies, eight retrospective cohort studies, and one nonrandomized controlled trial. A total of 3109 implants placed in 1171 subjects were analyzed. Twenty-three studies were evaluated using meta-analysis. The alveolar bone condition was significantly correlated with ISQ (r = 0.60; p < .001), IT (r = 0.52; p < .001), and PTV (r = -0.42; p < .05). CONCLUSION: Alveolar bone condition is significantly associated with PIS. Low bone density and thin cortical bone can lead to low PIS; therefore, modification of treatment planning and surgical procedures might be needed to avoid poor osseointegration.

PURPOSE: To comparatively evaluate transcrestal sinus floor elevation (tSFE) and lateral sinus floor elevation (lSFE) at sites with different residual bone heights (RBHs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A re-analysis of data from a parallel-arm, randomized trial comparatively evaluating tSFE and lSFE was performed. Within each RBH interval (< 4 mm or ≥ 4 mm), tSFE and lSFE groups were compared for chair time, surgery-related costs, morbidity, and radiographic parameters (including the proportion of the implant surface in direct contact with the radiopaque area [totCON%]). RESULTS: The intention-to-treat (ITT) population consisted of 29 and 28 patients in the tSFE and lSFE groups, respectively. Irrespective of RBH, both tSFE and lSFE lead to a median totCON% of 100%. At sites with RBH < 4 mm, pain severity was significantly higher at days 0 and 1 in the tSFE group, with no intergroup difference in the dose of analgesics. LSFE was associated with a significantly higher frequency of bruising and greater cost. At sites with RBH ≥ 4 mm, a significantly lower frequency of postoperative signs/symptoms, less chair time, and lower costs were observed in the tSFE group. CONCLUSIONS: The selection of tSFE or lSFE within the investigated RBH intervals seems to be supported by differences in chair time, costs, and morbidity between the two techniques. At sites with RBH < 4 mm, clinicians preferring tSFE should encourage the administration of analgesics according to a predefined plan in the early postoperative phase. At sites with RBH ≥ 4 mm, tSFE should be preferred to lSFE due to reduced chair time, costs, and morbidity.

PURPOSE: The goal of soft tissue augmentation is to improve the volume around implants and thus achieve better aesthetic and functional properties. The present review aims to make recommendations and guide clinicians in performing soft tissue augmentation procedures, focusing on the importance of timing. OVERVIEW: Soft tissue augmentation can be performed at different time points: before or after implant placement, at implant placement (immediate/delayed), at healing abutment connection or after final restoration. Before/after implant placement or at healing abutment connection are considered the gold standard time points at which to perform soft tissue augmentation due to the possibility of achieving complete coverage of the soft tissue graft or its substitute through simple flap elevation and the easy handling of tissue. On the other hand, performing soft tissue augmentation at implant placement or after crown delivery seems to be less predictable due to the different healing approaches and the unexpected shrinkage that occurs. CONCLUSION: Timing needs to be considered when performing soft tissue augmentation, taking into account the advantages and disadvantages related to operator experience, implant position and patient expectations. Employing a reliable approach at the appropriate time of intervention could limit complications.

PURPOSES: The aim of the present clinical and radiologic retrospective study was to evaluate alveolar bone remodeling, in terms of alveolar width and periimplant bone level, two years after immediate implant positioning (with two different collar lengths, 0.8 mm and 2.0 mm) and loading of preformed healing cap. The Null hypothesis, H0 is: there was no difference between the two groups of implants. METHODS: Patients suffering from single-tooth edentulous areas in premolar, cuspid, and incisive areas were treated with fresh-socket implants and immediate preformed anatomical healing caps. Each final crown restoration was fabricated 3 months later. Primary outcomes (related to loss of the alveolar width and periimplant bone level) and secondary outcomes (testing adverse events, and measuring implant/prosthesis survival) were acquired and analyzed. RESULTS: A two-year retrospective analysis was conducted on 31 patients (19 female and 12 male), who underwent dental implant placement with implants having two different lengths of the collar: group A, 0.8 mm, and group B, 2.0 mm. As for the width of the alveolar crest, there was a negligible loss (less than half a millimeter) reported for both the groups, anyway reaching a statistical significance. Preoperative alveolar widths (9.50±0.67 mm and 9.45±0.90 mm, respectively for groups A and B) were different from the two-year alveolar widths (9.20±0.74 mm and 8.93±0.99 mm, respectively for groups A and B) with p-values ≤ 0.0049. When the marginal bone loss was assessed, significant differences were registered between the two procedure groups (-1.42±0.34 mm for group A and -0.11±0.15 mm for group B with a p-value < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The proper design of a healing abutment was very important to preserve the emergence profile immediately after extraction and implant placement. The length of the implant collar used with an immediate healing abutment appeared to affect the preservation of the alveolar crest with predictable final results.

PURPOSES: To investigate the amount of first-year periimplant bone loss and the development of the papillae when delayed dental implants loaded with anatomic cover screw and those underwent conventional healing protocol were compared. METHODS: Edentulous healed sites had undergone delayed implants placement. In the anatomical cap group, patients were treated with a guided tissue healing, tooth-like cross-linkable acrylic resin caps had been immediately screwed on dental implants. The marginal loss of the alveolar bone height 1 year after surgery and Jemt's papillae index were obtained. Non-parametric statistics were performed with a level of significance of 1% RESULTS: Forty patients were included in the present retrospective analysis. After a follow-up of 1 year, none of the 40 included implants showed a failure. The Jemt's papilla index was 1.76±0.44 and 1.34±0.50 respectively for guided tissue healing and conventional healing group, without any significant difference. Within the first year of survey a bone loss of -1.27±0.26 mm for conventional healing treatment showed a statistically significant difference (p-value<0.0001) when it was compared to the negligible of the other group (-0.06±0.31 mm). CONCLUSIONS: A guided healing procedure with preformed caps seemed to give better outcomes regarding marginal bone loss and papilla index than those of conventional abutments.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of mandibular incisive canal (MIC) perforation caused by implants placed on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images in the edentulous mandibular anterior region. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 1200 dental implants were virtually inserted on 150 eligible CBCT scans. The relationship of different implant sizes with the incidence of MIC perforation and the relationship between crest height and perforation were evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 1200 virtual implant applications were performed on 150 patients. In 87% of cases, MIC was identified. Perforation in 12 and 14 mm implants was significantly higher than in 8- and 10-mm implants (P < .05). Perforation was found to be statistically significantly higher in crest heights that were ≤20 mm than in crest heights >20 mm (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed high perforation rates in the 12- and 14-mm implants and crests heights that were ≤20 mm during implant surgery in the mandibular anterior edentulous region. Perforation of the MIC should be considered a complication of implant surgery in the mandibular anterior region; therefore, CBCT images should be evaluated before implant placement.

BACKGROUND: Many studies demonstrated that surgical guides might reduce discrepancies compared with freehand implant placement. This randomized crossover study aimed to assess the effects of approaches, practitioners' experience and learning sequences on the accuracy of single tooth implantation via digital registration method. No similar study was found. METHODS: This in vitro randomized crossover study enrolled 60 novice students (Group S) and 10 experienced instructors (Group I). Sixty students were randomly and evenly assigned to two groups (Group SA and SB). In Group SA, 30 students first performed single molar implant on a simulation model freehand (Group SAFH), and then with a CAD/CAM surgical guide (Group SASG). In Group SB, another 30 students first performed guided (Group SBSG) and then freehand (Group SBFH). Ten instructors were also divided into Group IAFH/IASG (n = 5) and IBSG/IBFH (n = 5) following the same rules. The accuracy of implant placement was assessed by the coronal and apical distance (mm) and angular (°) deviations using the digital registration method. T tests and nonparametric tests were used to compare the results among different groups of approaches, experience and sequences. RESULTS: For students, the coronal and apical distance and the angular deviations were significantly lower in surgical guide group than freehand group in total and in learning freehand first subgroup, but for learning surgical guide first subgroup the apical distance deviation showed no significant difference between two approaches. For students, the angular deviation of freehand group was significantly lower in learning surgical guide first group than learning freehand first group. For instructors, the coronal and apical distance and angular deviations showed no significant difference between two approaches and two sequences. For freehand approach, the coronal and apical distance and the angular deviations were significantly higher in student group than instructor group, while not significantly different between two groups for surgical guide approach. CONCLUSIONS: For novices, using a surgical guide for the first implant placement may reduce the potential deviations compared with freehand surgery, and may reach a comparable accuracy with that of specialists. For simple single molar implantation, the surgical guide may not be significantly helpful for experienced specialists.

OBJECTIVES: Multiple generations of medical robots have revolutionized surgery. Their application to dental implants is still in its infancy. Co-operating robots (cobots) have great potential to improve the accuracy of implant placement, overcoming the limitations of static and dynamic navigation. This study reports the accuracy of robot-assisted dental implant placement in a preclinical model and further applies the robotic system in a clinical case series. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In model analyses, the use of a lock-on structure at robot arm-handpiece was tested in resin arch models. In a clinical case series, patients with single missing teeth or edentulous arch were included. Robot-assisted implant placement was performed. Surgery time was recorded. Implant platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation were measured. Factors influencing implant accuracy were analyzed. RESULTS: The in vitro results showed that with a lock-on structure, the mean (SD) of platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation were 0.37 (0.14) mm, 0.44 (0.17) mm, and 0.75 (0.29)°, respectively. Twenty-one patients (28 implants) were included in the clinical case series, 2 with arches and 19 with single missing teeth. The median surgery time for single missing teeth was 23 (IQ range 20-25) min. The surgery time for the two edentulous arches was 47 and 70 min. The mean (SD) of platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation was 0.54 (0.17) mm, 0.54 (0.11) mm, and 0.79 (0.22)° for single missing teeth and for 0.53 (0.17) mm, 0.58 (0.17) mm, and 0.77 (0.26)° for an edentulous arch. Implants placed in the mandible had significantly larger apex deviation than those in the maxilla. CONCLUSION: Cobot-assisted dental implant placement showed excellent positional accuracy and safety in both the in vitro study and the clinical case series. More technological development and clinical research are needed to support the introduction of robotic surgery in oral implantology. Trial registered in ChiCTR2100050885.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the accuracy of dynamic computer-aided implant surgery (dCAIS) and compare it with static computer-aided implant surgery (sCAIS) and freehand implant placement (FH) in partially or fully edentulous patients. DATA: Studies that analyzed the accuracy of dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery in partially or fully edentulous patients. SOURCES: This meta-analysis included studies published in English and Mandarin Chinese from January 2013 to February 2023 from MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials), and CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure). STUDY SELECTION: Only clinical studies were included. Accuracy was the primary outcome. Seventeen studies met the inclusion criteria. A total of 2,025 implants were analyzed. Meta-regression was conducted to compare the six different navigation systems. GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) assessment was adopted as a collective grading of the evidence. CONCLUSIONS: Dynamic navigation is a clinically reliable method for implant placement. Significantly lower angular deviation was observed for dCAIS compared to both sCAIS and FH, while significantly lower global platform and apex deviations were displayed between dCAIS and FH. Overall, dynamic navigation allowed for higher accuracy compared to both sCAIS and FH in a clinical setting; however, additional large sample RCT studies should be conducted, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) reported. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This systematic review analyzed the accuracy of dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery in partially or fully edentulous patients compared with static navigation. The results demonstrated that dynamic navigation could decrease implant placement angular deviations.

OBJECTIVES: To analyze morphological, volumetric, and linear hard tissue changes following horizontal ridge augmentation using a three-dimensional radiographic method. METHODS: As part of a larger ongoing prospective study, 10 lower lateral surgical sites were selected for evaluation. Horizontal ridge deficiencies were treated with guided bone regeneration (GBR) using a split-thickness flap design and a resorbable collagen barrier membrane. Following the segmentation of baseline and 6-month follow-up cone-beam computed tomography scans, volumetric, linear, and morphological hard tissue changes and the efficacy of the augmentation were assessed (expressed by the volume-to-surface ratio). RESULTS: Volumetric hard tissue gain averaged 605.32 ± 380.68 mm3. An average of 238.48 ± 127.82 mm3 hard tissue loss was also detected at the lingual aspect of the surgical area. Horizontal hard tissue gain averaged 3.00 ± 1.45 mm. Midcrestal vertical hard tissue loss averaged 1.18 ± 0.81 mm. The volume-to-surface ratio averaged 1.19 ± 0.52 mm3/mm2. The three-dimensional analysis showed slight lingual or crestal hard tissue resorption in all cases. In certain instances, the greatest extent of hard tissue gain was observed 2-3 mm apical to the initial level of the marginal crest. CONCLUSIONS: With the applied method, previously unreported aspects of hard tissue changes following horizontal GBR could be examined. Midcrestal bone resorption was demonstrated, most likely caused by increased osteoclast activity following the elevation of the periosteum. The volume-to-surface ratio expressed the efficacy of the procedure independent of the size of the surgical area.

PURPOSE: The present study compared the absorbable gelatin sponge as a space-filling material versus anorganic bone bovine mineral (ABBM) in maxillary sinus augmentation with simultaneous endosseous dental implant placement. METHODS: Eighteen maxillary sinus floor elevation cases were randomly allocated into two groups. The first group received ABBM, while the second group received an absorbable gelatin sponge as a space-filling material. For both groups, CBCT scans were obtained immediately postoperatively and six months later to calculate the difference in sinus floor bone gain. Osstell readings were recorded both at the time of implant placement and implant exposure with a total of twenty-three dental implant placements in relation to the eighteen elevated sinus floors. RESULTS: The mean radiographic sinus floor gain in the ABBM group was 10.2 mm (± 2.5), while in the absorbable gelatin sponge group was 5.4 mm (± 2.0), with a mean difference of 4.8, which was statistically significant (p < 0.001). The mean implant stability for the ABBM was 77.3 (± 4.9), while in the absorbable gelatin sponge group was 74.2 (± 3.0), with a mean difference of 3.1, which was statistically insignificant (p = 0.1610). CONCLUSION: The ABBM showed superior results regarding the amount of radiographic sinus floor bone gain. However, the implant stability was invariable between both groups.

AIM: The aim of the study was to identify and report outcome measures and methods of assessment on soft-tissue augmentation interventions in the context of dental implant therapy reported in clinical studies published in the last 10 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The protocol of this PRISMA 2020-compliant systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021252214). A literature search was conducted to identify articles that met the pre-established eligibility criteria. Data of interest, with an emphasis on outcome measures, were extracted. For each outcome, specific methods and timing of assessment were described in detail. Following a critical qualitative analysis of the data, outcome measures were categorized. Primary outcomes were identified and the frequency of reporting in the selected articles was calculated. Additionally, risk of bias assessments were performed for individual articles and primary outcomes. RESULTS: Ninety-two articles, of which 39 reported randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 20 reported non-RCTs, and 33 reported case series studies, were selected. Outcome measures were categorized into either investigator-evaluated outcome measures (i.e., clinical, digital imaging, esthetic, histologic, biomarker, and safety) or patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). Clinical outcomes were the most frequently reported type of outcome. Considering all categories, the most frequently reported primary outcomes were facial mucosa thickness assessed with clinical methods (22.83%), facial keratinized mucosa width assessed with clinical methods (19.57%), facial mucosal margin position/recession assessed with clinical methods (18.48%), facial mucosa thickness assessed with digital imaging methods (11.96%), facial soft-tissue volume assessed with digital imaging methods (9.78%), and supracrestal tissue height assessed with clinical methods (9.78%). No distinguishable patterns of association between specific types or quality (level of bias) of clinical studies and the choice of primary outcomes were observed. CONCLUSION: Clinical research on peri-implant soft-tissue augmentation has progressively increased in the last 10 years. Although clinical outcome measures were the most frequently reported outcomes in the selected literature, trends in the field are indicative of a shift from traditional clinical assessment methods to the use of digital technologies. PROMs were generally underreported but should be considered an integral methodological component in future clinical studies.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Optimal implant positioning is essential to achieving predictable results. Computer-guided surgery has been reported to be an accurate technique for implant placement in healed sites, but the accuracy of guided techniques for immediate implant placement into fresh sockets is still unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this experimental randomized split-mouth study in pig jaws was to determine the accuracy of partially and fully guided surgical techniques for immediate implant placement into fresh sockets and to compare 2 different methods of implant position deviations analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty implants were installed in 10 pig jaws using 2 different techniques: partially guided (n=10) and fully guided (n=10). Cone beam computed tomography and digital scanning were performed before and after the surgical procedure to plan the virtual implant position and fabricate the surgical guide, as well as to determine implant position deviations. Two methods were used to evaluate implant deviations: tomographic and digital scanning. The Shapiro-Wilk test of normality was used. Deviation comparisons were carried out by using paired t tests (α=.05), and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was computed to assess the agreement between the 2 methods of implant deviation analysis. RESULTS: In the tomographic analysis, the partially guided technique resulted in significantly higher global apical and lateral coronal deviations (2.25 ±0.59 mm; 0.96 ±0.55 mm) than fully guided (1.52 ±0.89 mm; 0.75 ±0.52 mm) (P<.01 and P<.05, respectively). The analysis performed using digital scanning showed significantly higher angular, global apical, and lateral apical deviations in the partially guided (6 ±3.28 degrees; 2.49 ±1.03 mm; 2.16 ±1.07 mm) technique than in the fully guided (3.32 ±1.84 degrees; 1.5 ±0.58 mm; 0.98 ±0.67 mm) (P<.05). An ICC of 0.522 between the 2 methods of implant deviation analysis was obtained. CONCLUSIONS: The partially guided technique was less accurate than the fully guided technique for immediate implant placement into fresh sockets. A moderate concordance was observed between cone beam computed tomography and digital scanning analyses, suggesting that more studies are required to validate and to define the most reliable method of measuring implant deviation.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the volumetric stability of peri-implant soft and hard tissue prospectively, this study compared immediate versus delayed implants placed in the anterior esthetic region. METHODS: This non-randomized controlled clinical study included 25 patients, who received an immediate (type 1) or a delayed (type 4) implant placement for the replacement of a single anterior tooth. The anterior maxillae were intraorally scanned at three timepoints: before surgery (S0), 6 months (S1), and 12 months (S2) after surgery. A specific region of interest (ROI), divided into marginal and apical regions, was determined and superimposed for volumetric changes analysis. At 6 and 12 months, the probing depth (PD), bleeding/suppuration on probing (BOP/SUP), modified plaque index (PI), keratinized mucosa (KM) width, mucosal recession (MR), and implant stability (PTV) by means of periotest were recorded. RESULTS: Between S0-S2, tissue surrounding immediate implants was reduced in 0.37 ± 0.31 mm, whereas delayed implants gained 0.84 ± 0.57 mm mean tissue volume. Peri-implant tissue loss at type 1 implants occurred primarily in the marginal section of the ROI (0.42 ± 0.31 mm), whereas tissue gain at type 4 implants occurred mainly in the apical section (0.83 ± 0.51 mm). These values were significantly different between both groups for the entire ROI (p = 0.0452) and the marginal region (p = 0.0274). In addition, the mean buccal KM width around type 1 implants was significantly wider in comparison with the type 4 implants group after 12 months (p = 0.046). There were no significant differences between groups regarding PD, BOP/SUP, or PTV. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that type 1 implants placed in the esthetic region experience more tissue loss than type 4 implants, thus marginal tissue remodeling should be considered for planning immediate implants placement in the anterior maxillae.
