RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study aimed to identify the technical complications associated with maxillary complete-arch implant-supported fixed prostheses (ISFPs) and to evaluate the survival rates of both implants and prostheses. Additionally, we sought to analyze the impact of the presence of cantilevers, the type of prosthetic abutment, and the number of implants on the occurrence of complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were obtained from standardized clinical assessments carried out in a single appointment by two calibrated professionals using information from dental records. RESULTS: The sample consisted of 64 patients rehabilitated with ISFPs classified as hybrid prostheses (metal-resin). The survival rate for implants was 98.6% after 1 to 12 years (5.2 years ± 36.6 months) and was 100% for the prostheses after a follow-up period of 12 to 144 months (mean 48.1 ± 33.94 months). The most frequent complications were occlusal wear (82.8% of patients) and loosening of prosthetic screws (16.6%) and abutments (8.1%). Screw loosening frequency was significantly greater in 30-degree abutments compared with straight abutments (P=0.008), but no significant difference was found between 17-degree and 30-degree abutments. Prostheses with a higher occurrence of screw loosening had a greater average CL/AP spread ratios (0.9 ô 0.5). In addition, abutments installed on distal implants were more likely to loosen (P<0.001). The absence of mutually protected occlusion did not significantly influence the loosening of screws and prosthetic abutments. CONCLUSIONS: Implantsupported fixed maxillary complete-arch rehabilitations have high survival rates but are subject to technical complications.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Fixed implant-supported complete maxillary dentures aim to rehabilitate aesthetic, phonetic, and functional aspects of edentulous arches. A previous prosthetic preparation without a flange in the anterior sector makes it possible to evaluate the labial support and the existing space for the future prosthesis. Thus, it allows the most appropriate choice of the type of rehabilitation and surgical technique. However, follow-up studies have shown that when proceeding this way, problems in the posterior sector are still occurring, such as the lack of vertical space for an adequate bar design and concave internal designs, which make access to hygiene difficult. Faced with the problem, the aim of this study is to report a clinical case in which the previous prosthetic preparation included the removal of the flange also from the posterior sector during the teeth try-in and the duplication of this assembly in a transparent multifunctional guide that allowed the visualization of the amount of bone removal needed. The osteotomy, performed before the installation of the implants, provided enough space for the bar, acrylic, and prefabricated denture teeth in the prosthesis that was installed, an important fact considering that this is an area with greater chewing efforts. It also allowed for correct internal design in the prosthesis, which will ensure access to correct hygiene. Based on the analysis of the rehabilitated case, it seems fair to conclude that the total removal of the buccal flange at the time of testing the wax try-in of the teeth and its duplication is a differential in the approach of cases and should always be adopted to ensure a lower margin of error and greater longevity in the proposed rehabilitative treatment.
RESUMO Próteses totais fixas implantossuportadas objetivam reabilitar arcos edêntulos nos aspectos estético, fonético e funcional. Um preparo protético prévio sem flange no setor anterior permite avaliar o suporte labial e o espaço presente para a futura prótese, auxilinado na escolha do tipo de reabilitação e da técnica cirúrgica mais adequada. No entanto, estudos de acompanhamento tem mostrado que ao proceder dessa maneira ainda estão ocorrendo problemas no setor posterior, como falta de espaço vertical para um desenho adequado da barra e desenhos internos côncavos, que dificultam o acesso à higienização. Frente ao problema, o objetivo do presente trabalho é relatar um caso clínico no qual o preparo protético prévio incluiu a remoção do flange também do setor posterior durante a prova dos dentes e a duplicação dessa montagem em um guia multifuncional transparente permitindo a visualização da quantidade de remoção óssea necessária. A osteotomia, realizada antes da instalação dos implantes, proporcionou espaço suficiente para a barra, acrílico e dentes de estoque na prótese que foi instalada, fato importante considerando ser essa uma zona com maiores esforços mastigatórios. Também permitiu a confecção de desenho interno correto na prótese, que garantirá o acesso para correta higiene. Com base na análise do caso reabilitado, parece lícito concluir que a remoção total do flange vestibular no momento da prova dos dentes em cera e sua duplicação é um diferencial na abordagem dos casos e que deveria sempre ser adotada para garantir menor margem de erros e maior longevidade no tratamento reabilitador proposto.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to retrospectively collect clinical data to evaluate the influence of possible risk factors on the long-term success of implant treatment with extra-narrow (2.9 mm diameter) implants in a daily dental practice setting. METHODOLOGY: Data were collected from records of patients who received at least one extra-narrow implant from 2012 to 2017, regarding implant survival, prosthesis survival, patient characteristics, and implant characteristics. The association between the dependent variables "implant survival", "prosthesis survival," and "adverse events" related to patient and implant characteristics was statistically evaluated by chi-square tests. Moreover, implant and prosthesis survival were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. RESULTS: The sample was constituted of 58 patients (37 women and 21 men) with a mean age of 54.8 years old (SD: 12.5), followed up for up to eight years. In total, 86 extra-narrow implants were placed within this sample. Four implants were lost, resulting in an implant survival rate of 95.3%. A total of 55 prostheses were inserted and only one (1.8%) was lost, resulting in a prosthesis survival rate of 98.2%. The mean implant and prosthesis survival time was, respectively, 7.1 years and 6.3 years, according to the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. A correlation was found between smoking and implant loss, which makes implant loss eight times more likely to occur in smokers than non-smokers. A significant association was also found between prosthesis loss and previous need of prosthesis repair. However, it was not considered clinically relevant. No association was found between the occurrence of adverse events and later implant or prosthesis loss. CONCLUSION: High implant and prosthesis survival rates were found in the long term for treatment with extra-narrow implants. Moreover, a significant correlation between smoking and implant loss was observed.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Whether the shape of the intaglio surface of fixed implant-supported maxillary prostheses is associated with the occurrence of biological is unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate the shape (convex or concave) of the intaglio surface of complete-arch implant-supported maxillary fixed prostheses and to assess the association with biofilm accumulation, hyperemia, bone loss, and patient satisfaction. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Study participants consisted of 56 individuals with fixed complete implant-supported maxillary prosthesis attending follow-up appointments. The 56 prostheses supported by 388 implants had been in place for an average of 5.5 years (range 1-14 years). The intaglio surface was divided into areas corresponding to the cantilever regions and between implants (n=442) and was assessed for shape (concave or convex) and biofilm index (0 to 3). Tissue hyperemia (redness) was assessed as absent or present. Bone loss (mm) was measured from digital periapical radiographs by 2 calibrated evaluators (kappa=94.9%). Study participant satisfaction was investigated by using a visual analog scale. Association assessments (α=.05) between the shape of each area and all these parameters were performed with the Friedman, linear regression, and logistic regression tests. RESULTS: Of the analyzed areas, 58 (13.1%) were concave, and 384 (86.9%) were convex. Biofilm was absent on 3.5% of the concave and 5.5% of the convex areas. Biofilm was detectable with a probe on 12% of the concave and 22.4% of the convex areas and clinically visible in 58.6% of the concave and 57.8% of the convex areas. Abundant biofilm was seen in 25.9% of the concave and 14.3% of the convex areas and was associated with hyperemia (P=.003). A statistically significant association was found between the shape and biofilm accumulation (P=.009). Hyperemia was present in 199 (45%) areas. The association analysis between the shape of the area and the presence of hyperemia was not significant (P>.05). The mean bone loss was 0.71 mm (0.91 mm). Implants placed near concave areas underwent greater bone loss (P=.001). Study participants reported a high level of satisfaction with the esthetics, mastication, speech, and smile provided by the prosthesis, with satisfaction scores ranging between 8.46 and 8.77. However, in relation to ease of cleaning, only 19.6% were fully satisfied. CONCLUSIONS: The shape of the intaglio surface of prostheses influenced the occurrence of biofilm accumulation and bone loss, and concave areas showed greater biofilm accumulation and bone resorption. High rates of satisfaction with treatment were identified.

Introduction: The use of osseointegrated dental implants for the rehabilitation of patients has revolutionized dentistry. Objective: To retrospectively evaluate the survival rate and the frequency of complications with external hexagon platform supporting single crowns. Material and method: Dental forms of 110 patients who received 143 implants at the Ilapeo College (2004-2015) were used. The variables were: age, gender, systemic involvement at the time of surgery, region, implant design, type of surface, fixation system, pillar type and prosthesis material. The outcome variables were the incidence of complications in the implant or prosthesis and time in use. The mean follow-up period was 9 years. Result: 32.8% had some systemic disease. Ninety-six implants (67.1%) were installed in the maxilla and 47 (32.9%) in the mandible, 87 (60.8%) were in the posterior region and 56 (39.2%) in the anterior region, while 40 (28%) were placed in regions that had received bone reconstruction. The majority (97.2%) of the implants presented surface treatment, 42% had a cylindrical design and 58% were tapered. The majority of the prosthetic components (89.6%) used were UCLAs and most of the prostheses were fused-to-metal (79.7%). The rate of prosthetic complications was 19.58% and three implants had been lost (97.9% survival rate). There was no statistical difference between the variables analyzed for both the occurrence of prosthetic complications and for the loss of the implant. Conclusion: Implants with external hexagon connection were an effective and predictable option to support crowns and had high survival rates.

A ancoragem de implantes em osso zigomático tem sido reconhecida como uma abordagem terapêutica menos invasiva quando comparada às grandes reconstruções para a reabilitação de maxilas severamente atróficas. Apesar de alcançar sucesso clínico elevado do ponto de vista cirúrgico e protético, melhorando a qualidade de vida e satisfação dos pacientes, problemas relacionados ao conforto da prótese são algumas vezes relacionados. Este caso clínico apresenta a resolução de 2 problemas: i) implantes zigomáticos do tipo cone morse em nível gengival, o que deixava a região côncava dos intermediários exposta ao meio oral e ii) hipersensibilidade na região de fossa nasal pela presença de implantes na região. A sensibilidade e trauma na língua, em decorrência dos implantes posteriores, foram solucionados pela personalização de um componente protético, enquanto a sensação de pressão na região anterior da maxila foi eliminada após a remoção de 2 implantes convencionais sem prejuízo à biomecânica da prótese implantossuportada (AU).
The anchorage of implants in the zygomatic bone has been recognized as a less invasive approach when compared to large reconstructions of severely atrophic maxilla. Although high rates of surgical and prosthetic success have been reached improving the patient life quality and satisfaction, problems in terms of prosthesis comfort are sometimes reported. This case report presents the resolution of 2 problems: i) morse taper zygomatic implants at the gingival level, resulting in the exposure of the concave area of the abutments and ii) hypersensitivity at the nasal cavity region, due to implants nearby this site. Sensitivity and tongue trauma, as a result of posterior implants, were solved by prosthetic component customization , while the pressure in the maxilla anterior area was eliminated after removing 2 conventional implants with no damage to the biomechanics of the implant supported prosthesis (AU).

OBJECTIVES: This randomized clinical trial analyzed crestal bone changes and soft tissue dimensions surrounding implants with an internal tapered connection placed in the mandible anterior region at different depths (equicrestal and subcrestal). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eleven edentulous patients (five implants per patient) were randomly divided in a split-mouth design: G1, 28 equicrestal implants; and G2, 27 subcrestal implants. All implants were immediately loaded. Correlation between keratinized tissue width (KTW) and vertical mucosa thickness (MT) with soft tissue recession was analyzed. Intraoral radiographs were used to evaluate crestal bone changes. Patients were assessed immediately, 4-, and 8-months after implant placement. Rank-based ANOVA-type statistical test was used for comparison between groups (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Fifty-five implants (G1 = 28 and G2 = 27) were assessed in 11 patients. Implant survival rate was 100% for both groups. Both tested implant placement depths presented similar crestal bone loss (P > 0.05). Significant crestal bone loss for each group was found in the different measurement times (T4 and T8) (P < 0.05). Implant placement depths, KTW, and vertical MT had no effect on soft tissue recession (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Different implant placement depths do not influence crestal bone changes. Soft tissue behavior is not influenced by different implant placement depths or by the amount of keratinized tissue.

O objetivo deste artigo foi descrever a técnica do assentamento passivo para confecção da estrutura metálica de próteses híbridas, por meio do relato de um caso clínico com acompanhamento em longo prazo. Paciente do sexo masculino, 44 anos, compareceu à clínica de Implantodontia do Instituto Latino Americano de Pesquisa e Ensino Odontológico (Ilapeo) relatando insatisfação devido à instabilidade da prótese total inferior. Foi planejada e executada a reabilitação do paciente com a instalação de cinco implantes entre os forâmenes mentuais, e uma prótese híbrida no sistema de carga imediata. O procedimento cirúrgico e a instalação da prótese definitiva foram realizados no mesmo dia. A agilidade de entrega da prótese foi possível devido à técnica utilizada para a confecção da estrutura metálica, denominada técnica do assentamento passivo, a qual elimina a necessidade de prova e solda da estrutura. A prótese permanece com a caraterística de reversibilidade, por ser parafusada, mas com a passividade das próteses cimentadas. O paciente foi acompanhado durante cinco anos e oito meses, não apresentou complicação e está totalmente satisfeito com o tratamento. Concluiu-se que a técnica do assentamento passivo reduz o tempo clínico e simplifica as etapas laboratoriais. Além disso, garante um adequado ajuste entre implante e prótese, favorecendo a longevidade da reabilitação.
The aim of this article was to describe the passive fit technique for the framework fabrication of hybrid prostheses through a clinical case presentation. A female, 44 years-old patient was examined at the Ilapeo clinics concerning about the instability of her lower mandibular denture. Five implants were planned and placed between the mental foramina to receive the mandibular hybrid prosthesis under immediate loading. The surgical and prosthodontic procedures were performed in the same day. This quick procedure to fabricate the metallic framework is known as the passive fit technique, which eliminates the try-in and soldering. Its retrievability is maintained, but with the advantage of a passive, cemented prosthesis. The patient has been followed-up for 5 years and 8 months, with no complications identifi ed, being completely satisfi ed with the proposed treatment. Besides, an adequate fit between the dental implants and the prosthesis is warranted, which favors the longevity of this rehabilitation procedure.

RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To present clinical data from a 7-year follow-up study of edentulous mandibles rehabilitated according to an immediate loading protocol with prefabricated bars. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-four implants were inserted in 11 patients and were evaluated by means of resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and clinical and radiographic examination. RESULTS: Ten patients returned for the 7-year evaluation and presented no implant loss. The stability measurements were performed immediately after implant placement (T0 = 64.5 ± 6.6 ISQ) and 1 year (T1 = mean 66.8 ± 4.2 ISQ), and 7 years (T7 = mean 62.8 ± 5.4) after being in function. The analysis of the RFA values showed a statistically significant decrease in implant stability after 7 years in function, although the final values are considered adequate for treatment success. Panoramic x-ray examination showed bone loss greater than the first thread in 10 implants. CONCLUSION: According to the obtained data, it can be concluded that immediate loading according to this protocol with prefabricated bars is a valid treatment option for edentulous patients providing sufficient long-term success.

As dentistry has evolved, the search for good esthetics has become increasingly frequent. Professionals must be constantly up-to-date regarding the latest advances. When a tooth is lost, there are several possible rehabilitation techniques. Adequate contour of the bone and gingiva is an essential factor if good esthetic results are to be achieved. In order to maintain the contour, techniques for immediate placement of implants, bone and gum grafting techniques and care in the correct establishment of the ideal position of the implant have been advocated. Sometimes dentists have to treat a patient whose implants have already been installed and are osseointegrated. This report was carried out in order to highlight the importance of understanding the information that is available to obtain appropriate gingival contours in such clinical conditions. A review of the literature was carried out on methods for obtaining gingival papilla and esthetics in the anterior maxilla, and on methods to construct a prosthesis for the clinical case described. The analysis of the outcome and of the degree of patient satisfaction suggests that the resources described can be successfully applied.
Devido às mudanças ocorridas pela evolução da Odontologia, a busca pela estética tem se tornado cada vez mais frequente. A constante atualização dos profissionais é uma necessidade. Quando ocorre a perda de um elemento dental, várias técnicas têm sido sugeridas para a correta reabilitação do mesmo. Manutenção do contorno ósseo e gengival já é um fator entendido como imprescindível para que a mesma possa ser alcançada. Em busca dessa manutenção de contorno, técnicas de posicionamentos imediatos de implantes, técnicas de enxertia óssea e/ou gengival e cuidados no correto estabelecimento da posição ideal do implante tem sido descritos. No entanto, alguns casos chegam para reabilitação com implantes já instalados e osseointegrados. Entendendo a importância de se conhecer os recursos descritos para obtenção de contornos gengivais adequados frente a essa condição clínica esse estudo foi idealizado. Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura e alguns dos métodos descritos para obtenção de papilas gengivais e estéticas em maxila anterior, assim como para confecção da prótese foram utilizados para resolução de um caso clínico que é apresentado. A análise do caso finalizado e a observação do grau de satisfação da paciente com o resultado alcançado permitem concluir que os recursos descritos são aplicáveis e permitem a otimização dos resultados.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: This randomized controlled trial used resonance frequency analysis (RFA) to assess the effects of the presence or absence of a cast rigid bar splinting multiple implants in the stability of immediately loaded implants. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-nine edentulous patients were randomly divided into two groups: G1 with full-arch implant-fixed prostheses and G2 with multiple implant splinting via acrylic resin denture bases. All implants were immediately loaded. RFA measurements assessed implant stability at three different times (T0--at baseline, T1--4 months, and T2--8 months. Wilcoxon and Friedman tests and a multivariate model with repeated measures for longitudinal data were used for statistical comparison (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients were assessed (G1 = 15 and G2 = 14). Implant and prostheses survival rates were 100% for both groups after the 8-month observation period and no significant differences in the mean ISQ values were found at the different implant stability assessment times (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The different splinting protocols did not appear to affect implant stability during the 8-month observation period.

Objetivo: comparar a precisão da adaptação de infraestruturas para coroas unitárias implantossuportadas, em zircônia e alumina, fabricadas por dois diferentes sistemas de fabricação. Material e métodos: implantes cone-morse Neodent foram utilizados, associados a componentes protéticos em zircônia (4,5 x 6 mm). Foram fabricadas 15 infraestruturas e divididas em três grupos (n=5): G1 Zircônia (Neodent Digital); G2 Alumina (Neodent); e G3: Zircônia (Zirkonzahn M5). Foram analisadas as discrepâncias horizontal e vertical em microscópio ótico (25x). Os resultados foram submetidos à Anova e teste de Tukey-Kramer (α=0,05). Resultados: os valores médios de desadaptação encontrados foram: Horizontal G1 - 25,2 ± 12,86 μm, G2 - 79,5 ± 12,76 μm, e G3 - 130,0 ± 8,42 μm; Vertical G1 - 4,1 ± 2,46 μm, G2 12,8 ± 9,62 μm, e G3 153,5 ± 83,92 μm. Na comparação estatística entre os grupos, o G3 apresentou os maiores valores de desadaptação (p < 0,05), enquanto que os outros grupos não apresentaram diferenças entre si (p > 0,05). Conclusão: dentro das limitações deste estudo, podemos concluir que as infraestruturas em zircônia fabricadas pelo sistema CAD/CAM Neodent Digital apresentaram adaptação adequada, seguida pelas infraestruturas em alumina e zircônia fabricadas pelo sistema CAD/CAM Zirkonzahn M5.
Objective: the purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the precision of fi t of implant-supported copings milled from semi-sintered Zirconia blocks fabricated by two different computer-assisted designs (CAD)/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM) systems and using a suspension plasma spray Alumina injection process. Material and methods: the Neodent Morse Cone implant system (Neodent, Brazil) was used in the study associated with Zirconia implant-abutments (4.5 x 6 mm). Fifteen standardized copings were fabricated for the 3 test groups (n=5): G1 Neodent Digital Zr copings; G2 Neodent Alumina coping; and G3 Zirkonzahn M5 copings. Horizontal and vertical discrepancies were measured and the misfi t values were evaluated in an optical microscope (25x). Data were submitted to Anova and Tukey-Kramers test (α=0.05). Results: the average misfi t levels found for the groups were: Horizontal G1 - 25.2 ± 12.86 μm, G2 79.5 ± 12.76 μm, and G3 130 ± 8.42 μm; Vertical G1 4.1 ± 2.46 μm, G2 - 12.8 ± 9.62 μm, and G3 - 153.5 ± 83.92 μm. In the statistical comparison between groups, G3 presented signifi cantly higher misfi t levels than the other groups (p < 0.05). The other groups had no signifi cant differences between each other (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that zirconia copings fabricated by Neodent Digital CAD/CAM system presented adequate fit followed by alumina and zirconia copings fabricated by the Zirkonzahn M5 CAD/CAM system.

AIM: A retrospective clinical analysis evaluated the clinical behavior of the prosthetic restorations, screw joint stability, peri-implant bone level and soft tissues, implant survival rate and patient satisfaction. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Data was collected from follow-up visits of 444 patients, aged from 26 to 88 years, that were rehabilitated with 2,244 implants placed between 2005 and 2010. RESULTS: The implant survival rate was 99.73%, 94.78% for prosthetic screws, and 96.70% for abutment screws. Peri-implant bone levels remained stable (bone loss equal or less than 1 mm) in 96.21% of the implants. Plaque accumulation was present in 275 patients and was associated with gingival bleeding in 66 patients. Three hundred and thirty patients were satisfied, 103 were somewhat satisfied, 7 patients expected more from their restorative treatment, and 4 patients were dissatisfied. CONCLUSION: Continuous follow-up of patients with implant restorations provides essential information on the behavior of implants and prosthetic components, enbling the early intervention in minor prosthetic complications (e.g. screw loosening) to avoid future major complications (e.g. implant failure).

Odontogenic myxoma is a rare tumor, often diagnosed during routine radiographs or when it is so severe that it causes pain, a noticeable increase in volume or tooth displacement and mobility. Young adults (25-30 years of life) are more often affected by the lesion but all ages are vulnerable. The mandible is more commonly involved than the maxilla and the tumors usually grow slowly and silently. However, growth can be rapid and destructive. The radiographic aspect of a myxoma is that of a uni or multilocular, radiolucent lesion reminiscent of honeycomb or soap bubbles, depending on its size. It is an expansive tumor that may cause displacement or resorption of the teeth involved. Microscopically, the tumor is composed of round and spindle cells, with a star arrangement, arranged in a loose abundant myxoid stroma, containing only a few collagen fibrils. The treatment of choice is radical surgical excision because myxomas are not encapsulated and tend to infiltrate the surrounding bone. However, small tumors can be treated by curettage. Periodic reassessment is required for at least five years due to the high rate of recurrence. Larger tumors may need to be treated using a more extensive resection with a safety margin. This study reports a clinical case of odontogenic myxoma in a child aged 7 years. The tumor was located in the posterior region of the mandible and was surgically treated with an en bloc resection with preservation of the base of the mandible. The follow-up of the case is ongoing and no recurrence has been observed to date.

PURPOSE: To evaluate bone response in the posterior area of edentulous mandibles rehabilitated with fixed prosthesis supported on dental implants considering baseline severity of mandibular atrophy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The sample included 15 patients in whom 5 implants were inserted between the mental foramens. The prosthesis followed a cantilever extension from 15 to 20 mm. They were divided into 2 groups (severe and moderate) according to the degree of the atrophy presented. Panoramic x-ray and computerized tomography were obtained immediately after rehabilitation (T0) and after 8 months (T8). Linear measurements of the alveolar bone height at the posterior area of the mandible, 5, 10, and 15 mm from the long axis of the most distal implants, were recorded. Density measurements were also achieved at the same sites. RESULTS: A slight bone increase in both groups was observed but with no statistically significant difference according to the baseline degree of atrophy. CONCLUSIONS: There was slight qualitative and quantitative bone improvement in the posterior area of the mandibles with the use of immediately loaded implant-supported fixed prostheses during the observed period. These results suggest that long-term follow-up is very important to understand bone behavior after rehabilitation.
