RÉSUMÉ
BACKGROUND: To provide a novel classification for all implants in the maxillary retromolar region to simplify surgical design, reduce surgical risks, and guide clinicians in clinical decision-making. METHODS: A total of 180 patients with bilateral partial or completely edentulous atrophic posterior maxillae who had received or were scheduled to receive pterygomaxillary implants were included in this study. Cone-beam computed tomography was performed, and the sagittal and coronal images were acquired at 110 kV and 10 mA. The exposure volume was 120 mm in diameter and 80 mm in height. The pterygomaxillary implants were divided into three different types based on the anatomical structures the implants passed through. RESULTS: The average age of the 180 patients was 69 (range: 39-89) years; 99 were men and 81 were women. All the patients exhibited 360 pterygomaxillary implant sites. However, during mimic implantation, 14 implant sites were excluded due to severe resorption of the tuberosity, very small pterygoid plates, or variations in the descending palatal artery configuration. Of the 346 pterygomaxillary implant sites, 24.0% (83/346), 40.7% (141/346), 22.0% (76/346), and 13.3% (46/346) were classified as Types I, IIa, IIb, and III, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Type II pterygomaxillary implants were the most commonly used in the novel classification. Different types of pterygomaxillary implants should follow specific designs and surgical strategies to achieve optimal outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Atrophic edentulous maxilla is a debilitating condition caused by the progressive and irreversible bone resorption following loss of teeth, that results in bone of inadequate volume and density. This makes conventional implant therapy extremely challenging without complex reconstructive procedures. Several techniques such as sinus augmentation, short implants, and tilted implants have been used for the rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla. In recent years, zygomatic implants have emerged as a graftless rehabilitation technique. However, few studies compare zygomatic-implant fixed rehabilitation with other fixed rehabilitation techniques. The existing body of evidence on zygomatic implants is largely based on clinical and disease-oriented outcomes. METHODS: A network meta-analysis (NMA) will be conducted in order to compare the effectiveness of zygomatic-implant fixed rehabilitation with the other rehabilitation techniques. Experimental and observational studies comparing different implant-assisted fixed rehabilitation in adults with atrophic maxilla will be included. The primary and secondary outcomes will be patient's satisfaction and quality of life respectively. Additional outcomes include the implant's survival/success, and biological and prosthetic complications. An electronic search will be performed through various databases for articles in English and French, without time limits. Risk of bias will be assessed using the Revised Cochrane Risk-of-Bias tool for randomized controlled trials, and ROBINS-I for non-randomized and observational studies. Two independent reviewers will screen the titles and abstracts and extract data. Any discrepancy between reviewers will be discussed and resolved through consensus or with the help of a third reviewer. Pairwise meta-analyses will be performed using a random effects model. I2, τ2, transitivity, subgroup/meta-regression analyses will assess and explain heterogeneity and distribution of effect modifiers. A network plot will be created to connect the different interventions directly and indirectly. Interventions will be ranked using the surface under cumulative ranking curve. Confidence in the results of the NMA will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). DISCUSSION: This study will be the first to assess the effectiveness of zygomatic-implant fixed rehabilitation for the atrophic maxilla using NMA. The evidence obtained will aid clinical decision-making and will advance the knowledge of the rehabilitation techniques for the atrophic maxilla.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to (a) record and evaluate the epidemiological data relevant to the fractures of the atrophic mandible in the Greek population (b) present our experience in the management of these difficult injuries and (c) compare our results to the outcomes of other similar studies and discuss the postoperative complications. METHODS: A prospective analysis of all the edentulous patients with fractures of the atrophic mandible treated at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department of K.A.T General Hospital of Athens in Greece was performed from November 2012 to December 2022. Age, gender and medical history of the patient, etiology and site of the fracture, classification of atrophy, type of surgical approach, type of osteosynthesis and postoperative complication. RESULTS: 34 patients were included in the present study and 48 fractures of the atrophic edentulous mandible were managed surgically. 22 fractures were classified as class II of atrophy, 21 fractures as class III and 5 injuries as class I. In 32 patients we used an extraoral approach and only 2 patients were treated with an intraoral access. 44 fractures were treated with a 2.0 mm locking reconstruction plate and only 4 injuries of class I atrophy were treated with mini plates. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical practice has confirmed that for these cases an extraoral approach followed by stable fixation with a 2.0 mm reconstruction locking plate can deliver excellent results. Our findings show that the routine use of primary bone grafts is not necessary and can be reserved for more complex cases.

OBJECTIVES: This observational study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of robotic computer-assisted implant surgery (r-CAIS) for full-arch immediate restoration and to analyse possible factors contributing to deviations. METHODS: Three edentulous patients (five arches) underwent r-CAIS. Osteotomies were performed using an autonomous robot under the surgeon's supervision, and implant placement was performed in a freehand or robotic manner. Prefabricated provisional prostheses were delivered immediately after surgery. Postoperative cone beam computed tomography scans were performed to assess the deviations between the planned and placed implants. Statistics were compared with deviations of s-CAIS outlined in a meta-analysis. RESULTS: A sum of 28 implants were used. The mean global coronal and apical deviations measured 0.91 ± 0.43 mm and 1.01 ± 0.45 mm, respectively, and the mean angular deviation measured 1.21 ± 1.24 º. The r-CAIS showed significantly better precision than the s-CAIS in full-arch cases (P < 0.001). The implants inserted using the robotic arm exhibited fewer deviations than those placed in the freehand manner. Eighty percent of prefabricated provisional prostheses were successfully delivered. CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of the present study, our data suggest that autonomous r-CAIS is a feasible approach for simultaneous immediate restoration in edentulous patients, showing better accuracy than s-CAIS. Further large-scale studies are necessary to verify the advantages and disadvantages of this novel technique and to explore possible factors that influence its accuracy. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Autonomous r-CAIS can provide clinically acceptable implant placement accuracy in edentulous patients, significantly surpassing s-CAIS. This level of accuracy may represent a viable therapeutic approach for simultaneous immediate full-arch restoration.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Atrophied jaw is a condition where there is insufficient bone quantity and quality. Several treatment plans are available for treating atrophied jaws, including subperiosteal implants. PURPOSE: To evaluate the spectrum of subperiosteal implants for severely atrophied jaws using digital technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An electronic and manual search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases. Publications of cohort studies, case series, and case reports written in English without data restrictions that reported on subperiosteal implant management of patients with severely atrophied jaws in a completely and partially edentulous population. RESULTS: A total of 26 articles, comprising 302 cases, were analyzed. In patients with severely atrophied jaws. The success rate was 87.7%, the surviving rate was 95.3%. The most common complications were biological, such as dehiscence and framework exposure. The rates of biologic complications were 11.5%, and the rates of prosthetic problems were 5.9%. CONCLUSIONS: Subperiosteal implants designed and constructed using digital technology are a promising treatment in the short term. Attention should be directed to decrease the biological complication. Correct designing, implanting, fixing, and patient selection and maintenance are critical for the success of the treatment. Longer prospective studies with larger population are needed to view the effect on hard and soft tissue.

OBJECTIVE: This prospective study is part of a randomised clinical trial and reports the changes in masticatory performance (MP) and bite force, and explores their influential factors, 1 year after the provision of mandibular overdentures retained by four titanium-zirconium mini implants. METHODS: Edentulous patients received conventional complete dentures, followed by placement of four mini implants (Straumann® Mini Implant System) in the anterior mandible and converting the conventional prosthesis into a mandibular overdenture. Treatment protocols were randomised using a 2×2 factorial design combining different surgical (flapped vs. flapless) and loading (immediate vs. delayed) protocols. MP was assessed using a two-colour mixing ability test and a colorimetric analysis to measure the level of colour mixing (Variance of Hue-VoH). Maximum voluntary bite force (MBF) was measured by a digital gnathodynamometer in the posterior and anterior regions. Sex, age, surgical and loading protocols and ridge morphology were tested as independent variables. MP and MBF tests were performed at baseline (pre-treatment) and the 3-, 6- and 12-month after implant loading. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and linear mixed-effect model (LMM) regression were used for data analysis. RESULTS: Seventy-four participants were assessed and 73 completed the 1-year follow-up. Statistically significant improvements in functional parameters were observed in all follow-up periods compared to baseline (p < .001). The flapless protocol was associated with higher improvement in MP at the 3-month follow-up (p = .004), while less resorbed ridges were associated with better MP (p = .038) and higher MBF (p < .001). CONCLUSION: The mandibular overdenture protocol using four titanium-zirconium mini implants was effective in improving MP and MBF of edentulous patients, compared to pre-treatment values. The findings also suggest that improvements in chewing function and bite force are impacted by clinical factors since better outcomes were observed for flapless surgeries and less resorbed edentulous ridges.

When considering placing dental implants in atrophic edentulous sites, there may be inadequate site width and little or no vertical bone loss. Any of several surgical procedures can augment these sites. Extracortical augmentation is done by applying graft material against the cortical bone. This technique expects progenitor cells to migrate outside the bony ridge's confines and form new bone. Another method entails ridge splitting and expansion to create space for osteogenesis and, when possible, implant placement. This may be a better method for horizontal ridge augmentation. The ridge is split, separating the facial and lingual cortices for a complete bone fracture. The patient's osseous cells can then migrate into the created space from the exposed medullary bone to form bone. The technique can be preferably performed flapless so the intact periosteum maintains a blood supply to ensure appropriate healing.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and determine clinical outcomes and survival rates of straight and extended length subcrestal angulated (ELSA) implants (20-24 mm lengths) placed for immediate (up to 72 h post-operative) or delayed rehabilitation (4 months post-operative) of severely atrophic maxillae. Prosthetic treatment consisted of interim and definitive implant-supported fixed implant-supported prostheses with up to 3 years of function. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 38 patients (five dropped out; final total was 33), treated between 2017 and 2019 in a private practice. Extended length subcrestal angulated (ELSA) implants and conventional endosseous straight implants (Southern Implants, Irene, South Africa) with (fixed) full arch prostheses were used to restore patients with edentulous maxillae immediately (within 72 hs) or delayed (4 months). ELSA implants have subcrestal angulations of 24° and 36° of the restorative platforms, external hexagon crestal anti-rotation abutment connections, and lengths between 18 and 26 mm. Implant loading was determined by implant insertion torque values (as determined on the surgical units); 120 Ncm was the threshold level for immediate loading. Clinical and radiographic examinations were done that recorded the clinical outcomes of implants and prostheses. SPSS was used to process the data. RESULTS: Thirty-three patients and 187 implants were included with follow-up periods of at least 12 months (range 12-36 months). The mean age of the study population was 62.6 ± 8.4 years old (at the time of implant placement). Thirty-three patients (86.8%) were followed for 12 months; 13 patients (39.4%) were followed for 24-35 months; 9 patients (27.3%) were followed for 36 months. In total, 13 implants in six patients failed secondary to sinus infections. Mean bone levels (MBLs) were respectively: 0.88 ± 2.12 mm at loading, -1.53 ± 2.03 mm at 12 months, -2.26 ± 1.45 mm at 24 months, and -2.54 ± 1.46 mm at 36 months. The ELSA implants showed significantly lower (p = 0.014) MBL at 36 months than did the conventional implants. One hundred thirty-seven implants were placed and loaded within 72 h; 50 implants were placed and loaded 4 months post placement. The combined implant survival rates were 93.0% at 12 months, 91.1% at 24 months, and 100% at 36 months. The ELSA implants showed significantly lower (p = 0.014) MBLs at 36 months when compared to the conventional implants. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this retrospective clinical chart review indicated that the use of ELSA implants placed into anterior maxillae and nasal crests with accentuated distal tilts (>30°) and simultaneous sinus augmentation provided favorable outcomes for prosthetic rehabilitation in patients with severe atrophic maxillae. ELSA implants placed with simultaneous sinus augmentation are an alternative option to zygomatic implants (ZI) when immediate loading is prescribed. Sinus infections were thought to be the proximate causes of all implant failures. Further long-term clinical studies are warranted with larger patient populations.

PURPOSE: The aim of this article is to evaluate to the masticatory function performance and Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in implant-retained overdenture compared with different implant number placements in the edentulous mandible. METHODS: From 2013 to 2015, each patients received 3 implants (iSy-Implant, Camlog, Wimsheim, Germany) in intraforaminal mandible (34, 41/31, 44). After operation, inserted implants were gradually loaded and incorporated into an overdenture with a self-aligning attachment system (Locator abutments) in 3 + 3 + 3 months. Five checked points were performed chewing cycle test with multicolored chewing gum and OHIP-G14 questionnaire and a sum score questionnaire as following: pre-operation, one implant load (41/31), two implants loaded (33,43), three implants loaded and 1-year follow up. RESULT: A total of 10 patients with 30 implants were placed, the survival rate of the implants was 100% within 1-year follow-up. Regarding the masticatory function analysis, for the higher number of chewing cycles, the higher mixing rate was observed. After 1 year, the inter-mixing rate without significant changes was found compared to the time after three implants were loaded with attachment system. The mean value of OHIP-G14 was 30.4 preoperatively, 21.1 after loading the first locator, 10.7 after loading two locator abutments, and 3.2 after loading all three locator abutments. After 1 year, OHIP-G14 was 2.6 without significantly changed. The mean of the sum score was 15.5 preoperatively, 27.8 after activation of the first locator, 39.4 after activation of two locators, 46.2 after activation of all three locators, and 47.3 after 1 year. An increase of 0.7 sum score units per time point was observed. No significance was detectable, analogous to OHIP-G14, compared to the time of activation of all three locator setups (p-value = 0.22). CONCLUSIONS: A significant improvement in masticatory function performance and OHRQoL was evaluated with the increasing number of implants with locator attachment in edentulous mandible. With the investigation of the OHIP-G14 and sum score, the results of patient report outcome might be associated with the increase in the number of implants.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: A consensus on the optimal approach to the placement of pterygoid implants is lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this finite element analysis study was to determine the optimal approach to the placement of pterygoid implants by comparing biomechanical behavior. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An edentulous and moderately atrophic maxilla with the anatomic structure of the pterygomaxillary region was constructed. Complete arch restorations with 4 standard anterior implants and pterygoid implants in 3 approaches were simulated: L70, long pterygoid implants (4.1×18 mm) inclined at 70 degrees relative to the Frankfort horizontal plane with anchorage in the pterygoid process; L45, long pterygoid implants (4.1×20 mm) inclined at 45 degrees with anchorage in the pterygoid process; and S45, shorter pterygoid implants (4.1×13 mm) inclined 45 degrees without apical anchorage. The L70, L45, and S45 groups were classified as D or S depending on the bone quality: D3 (dense trabecular bone) or D4 (sparse trabecular bone). A total of 6 finite element models were built. The bone failure theory, based on the von Mises theory, was used to judge yielding of the trabecular bone. The von Mises stress (σVM) distribution was measured in the cortical bone, the trabecular bone, and on the implant surface. Deformation (DF) distribution was obtained for the entire bone (DFB) and bone surrounding the pterygoid implant (DFP). RESULTS: L70 showed a lower maximum σVM value (maxσVM), more uniform σVM distribution in the cortical bone, trabecular bone, and on the implant surface and a lower maximum DFp value (maxDFp), especially in the D4 bone. The biomechanical behaviors were similar in L45 and S45 with no stress distribution in the pterygoid process. In the D4 bone, L70, L45, and S45 exceeded the limited stress of the bone failure theory by 50%, 130%, and 130%, while all values were under the limit in D3 bone. CONCLUSIONS: The approach of pterygoid implants inclined at 70 degrees relative to the Frankfort plane with anchorage in the pterygoid process was optimal, providing improved biomechanical behavior. Clinically, in the case of D4 bone, the inclined angulation of pterygoid implants should be 70 degrees to minimize the risk of failure.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Implant placement in the mandibular molar sites plays a crucial role in the restoration of edentulous mandibles. However, the evaluation of bone quantity before implant surgery using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate CBCT images of edentulous patients to analyze the feasibility of implant placement in healed mandibular molar sites. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The CBCT data of 138 patients were analyzed in the sagittal plane for measurements of mandibular bone height (MBH), superior bone height (SBH), inferior bone height (IBH), buccal bone width (BBW), lingual bone width (LBW), and alveolar bone widths (ABWs). The edentulous sites were categorized according to the bone quantity and complexity of the implant surgery. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze the site, sex, and age-related variations. An independent t test was used to compare the difference of bone dimension in different sites and between sexes. One-way ANOVA followed by post hoc tests were used to analyze the difference between different age groups. Categorical variables were presented as number of events and percentages. The chi-squared test was used to compare categorical variables (α=.05). RESULTS: A total of 534 sites of interest were recorded, including 274 hemimandibles. A significant difference in BBW was found between the first and second molar sites. Men had higher MBH, SBH, IBH, and BBW than women. The distribution of implant surgical complexity in the conventional group was 63.5%, while the buccolingual tilted implant group accounted for 17.0%, and the complicated group accounted for 19.5%. Of the 274 hemimandibles, an implant could be placed directly at molar sites in 88% of situations. CONCLUSIONS: The BBW at the mandibular second molar site was greater than that at the first molar site. The amount of available bone in the SBH and BBW was greater in men than in women at the healed molar sites. Age did not significantly affect the complexity of the implant surgery. Implants can be placed directly in healed mandibular molar sites in most patients who require a complete arch mandibular implant-supported restoration.

AIM: To compare between the rehabilitation of atrophied maxilla with fixed prosthesis using two posterior zygomatic implants and two conventional anterior implants or four implants inserted according to the all-on-four concept regarding the patient quality of life and satisfaction after one year of prosthesis insertion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-six patients with atrophic edentulous maxillae were randomized into two groups: Group I (rehabilitated with fixed prostheses supported by two zygomatic and two conventional implants in the anterior region) and group II (fixed prostheses on four implants in the anterior region following an all-on-four concept). One year after the placement of the definitive prostheses, patients completed oral health impact profile-14 and satisfaction questionnaires. RESULTS: All patients were satisfied regarding retention, stability, occlusion, comfort, cleaning, speaking, chewing, bolus quality, appearance, handling, prosthesis apart, and embarrassing, with no significant significance between two groups except satisfaction with surgical procedures and healing period. CONCLUSIONS: Using two distally tilted zygomatic implants or all-on-four concept to rehabilitate atrophied maxilla by fixed detachable prosthesis could be considered a promising functional and esthetic treatment option regarding the patient satisfaction. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Traditionally, treatment of maxillary atrophied ridges was done by bone grafting or sinus-lifting techniques; however, using all-on-four concept or zygomatic implants was a successful treatment as it has high success rates and highly satisfied by the patients.

PURPOSE: Despite the high clinical accuracy of dynamic navigation, inherent sources of error exist. The purpose of this study was to improve the accuracy of dynamic-navigated surgical procedures in the edentulous maxilla by identifying the optimal configuration of intraoral points that results in the lowest possible registration error for direct clinical implementation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Six different four-area configurations (left and right sides; n = 12) were tested by three operators against two negative controls (left and right sides) and one positive control (three-area and eight-area configurations, respectively) using a skull model. The two dynamic navigation systems (X-Guide and Navident) and the two registration methods (bone surface tracing and fiducial markers) produced four registration groups: XG tracing, ND tracing, XG fiducial, and ND fiducial. The accuracy of the registration was checked at the frontal process of the zygoma. Intra- and interoperator reliabilities were reported for each registration group. Multiple comparisons were conducted to find the best configuration with the minimum registration error. RESULTS: Ranking revealed one configuration in the tracing groups (Conf.3) and two configurations in the fiducial groups (Conf.3 and Conf.5) that had the best accuracy. When the inferior surfaces of the zygomatic buttress were excluded, fiducial registration produced better accuracy with both systems (P = .006 and < .0001). However, bilaterally tracing 1-cm areas at these surfaces resulted in similar registration accuracy to placing fiducial markers there (P = .430 and .237). Navident performed generally better (P = .049, .001, and .002), but the values had a wider margin of uncertainty. Changing the distribution of the four tracing areas or fiducial markers had a less pronounced effect with the X-Guide than with the Navident system. CONCLUSIONS: For surgery in the edentulous maxilla, four fiducial markers placed according to Conf.3 or Conf.5 resulted in the lowest registration error. Where implants are being placed bilaterally, an additional two sites may further reduce the error. For bilateral zygomatic implant placement, it is optimal to place two fiducial markers on the inferior surfaces of the maxillary tuberosities, two on their buccal surfaces, and another two on the anterior labial surface of the alveolar bone. Utilizing the inferior zygomatic buttress is recommended over the inferior maxillary tuberosities in other types of maxillary surgeries.

OBJECTIVES: This article presents a novel complete-arch pillar system (CAPS) to register implant position and maxillomandibular relationship in one single visit for implant-supported fixed complete dental prostheses (IFCDPs). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The novel system presents a 3-unit toolset comprising intraoral scan bodies (ISBs), lateral pillar attachments (LPAs) and occlusal pillar attachments (OPAs). A 2-stage single visit workflow by an intraoral scanner (Trios 5) was introduced. The first stage "Screw-Scan-Done" was used to describe complete-arch intraoral implant scanning using LPAs. The second stage "Screw-Occlude-Done" involved virtual occlusal recording using OPAs. Two patients with one single edentulous arch were selected for this study. In the first patient, 6 bone level implants (Bone Level Tapered, Straumann) were placed in the edentulous maxilla at positions 12, 14, 16, 22, 24 and 26. In the second patient, 4 bone level implants (NobelActive CC, Nobel Biocare) were placed in the edentulous mandible at positions 32, 35, 42 and 45. A CAD-CAM procedure was initiated with the acquired IOS data to fabricate an interim IFCDP at the same day. Periapical radiographs were obtained of the implant-prosthetic connection of the definitive IFCDPs to verify the passive fit. Metrology software (Geomagic Qualify, 3D Systems - Matlab, Mathworks) was used to assess the implant analogs position in the 3D-printed casts used for fabricating the definitive IFCDPs. A quantitative occlusal relationship analysis was performed with IOS. RESULTS: Radiographic examination revealed no gaps at implant-prosthetic connection of the definitive IFCDPs. The 3D-printed casts showed an overall average distance deviation within the clinically acceptable range of errors of 150 µm. Quantitative occlusal relationship analysis with IOS showed well-distributed contacts. CONCLUSION: Within the limitations of this study, the following conclusions can be drawn: (1) A 3-unit toolset with ISBs, LPAs and OPAs allows to register the implant position and maxillomandibular relationship in one single visit; (2) the 2-stage clinical workflow with the CAPS system facilitates the IOS data acquisition for fabrication of an interim IFCDP at the same day; (3) a passive fit was demonstrated for the interim and the definitive IFCDPs. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The CAPS system can help clinicians to register the implant position and the maxillomandibular relationship in one single visit for the fabrication of an IFCDP.

Immediate function has become an accepted treatment modality for fixed restorations in completely edentulous jaws. The dental implants have gained immense popularity. A secure implant primary stability is positively associated with a successful implant integration and long term successful clinical outcome. The main aim of this study was to find the association between primary stability and bone density in implants placed in maxilla and mandible. A total of 1263 patients who had undergone implant placement from March 2020-March 2021 in Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals, Chennai, India were chosen for the study. The primary stability and bone density of these patients were collected from the hospital records. The collected data was compiled, reviewed, tabulated in Microsoft Excel sheet and entered in SPSS software for statistical analysis. In the present study, the patient aged between 28 and 37 years had undergone more implant placement (31%) with male predilection (53%). The most commonly associated primary stability was found to be 30-40 Ncm (51.37%) predominantly with D2 type of bone density (52.69%). A Chi-squared statistical test was done for primary stability and bone density and the P was found to be 0.00 (Chi-squared P < 0.05, statistically significant). The most predominant bone density was D2 associated with primary stability of 30-40 Ncm. The association between bone density and primary stability was found to be statistically significant. The present study shows a strong relationship between bone density and primary implant stability.

BACKGROUND: Poor oral health is an independent risk factor for upper-aerodigestive tract cancers, including esophageal cancer. Several studies have investigated short-term outcomes after esophagectomy and the impact of periodontal disease, but few have examined the impact of periodontal disease on long-term outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the rate of periodontitis among esophagectomy patients and the prognostic value of periodontitis and its effect on prognosis after esophagectomy. METHODS: A total of 508 patients who underwent esophagectomy received oral health care from a dentist before cancer treatment at Akita University Hospital between January 2009 and December 2021. We assessed the presence and severity of the patients' periodontitis and divided them into no-periodontitis, mild periodontitis, severe periodontitis and edentulous jaw groups. We then assessed 10-year overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) and determined whether periodontitis was an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and DSS. RESULTS: We found that 101 (19.9%) patients had no periodontitis, 207 (40.8%) had mild periodontitis, 176 (34.6%) had severe periodontitis requiring tooth extraction, and 24 (4.7%) had edentulous jaw. Both OS and DSS were significantly poorer in the periodontitis than no-periodontitis group (p < 0.001). In detail, the edentulous jaw group had the poorest prognosis (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that periodontitis was an independent risk factor affecting OS and DSS. CONCLUSION: Esophageal cancer patients had a high prevalence of periodontitis. Moreover, the presence of periodontitis and severity of periodontitis are independent risk factors contributing to a poorer prognosis after esophagectomy.

OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the difference in the incidence of peri-zygomatic complications (PZCs) when zygomatic implants (ZIs) penetrate or do not penetrate the external surface of zygoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study included 32 patients with edentulous maxillae or potentially edentulous maxillae undergo zygomatic implantation. The patients were divided into the penetration group (P-group) and the non-penetration group (N-group) according to whether the apex of implants penetrated the external surface of zygoma in postoperative CBCT. The extension length, the penetration section of the implants, and the skin thickness at the corresponding position were simultaneously measured. Clinical follow-up was conducted regularly until 2 years after surgery. The occurrence of PZCs (including peri-zygomatic infection, skin numbness, non-infectious pain, and foreign body sensation) was recorded. A mixed effect logistic model was used to compare the difference of complication rate between the P-group and the N-group, and odds ratio (OR) was calculated. Then identify the impact of the extension length, penetration section and skin thickness in P-group with the same model. RESULTS: A total of 71 ZIs were implanted in 32 patients, including 37 implants in the P-group and 34 implants in the N-group. During the 2-year follow-up, a total of 13 implants occurred PZCs, with an overall complication rate of 18.3%. Thereinto, the incidence rate was 29.7% in the P-group, and 5.9% in the N-group (OR = 6.77). In P-group, there was a significant difference in complication rate of different extension lengths, while the penetration section and skin thickness had no statistical significance on the complication rate. CONCLUSION: Under the limitation of this study, to minimize the risk of PZCs, ZI should be placed in a manner that avoids the apex penetrating the external surface of the zygoma.

The purpose of this multicenter continuation study was to use high patient numbers in order to generate reliable statements regarding the association between different implant indications and OHRQoL. Patients with various types of indication for dental implants, ranging from single tooth loss to edentulous jaws, were included. Quality of life relating to dental implants was assessed through the oral health impact profile (OHIP-G-21), which has a summary score from 0 to 20 in healthy patients. In total, 16 253 patients from 29 centers (European Centers for Dental Implantology (ECDI)) were involved in the study between 2009 and 2021.8251 patients (50.7%) completed the questionnaire after implant insertion, and 4996 patients (30.7%) after prosthodontic treatment. The average age was 54 years (range 18-88 years). Posterior single-tooth gap (28.5%) and free-end gap (27.8%) were the most frequent indications. The preoperative OHIP-G-21 score for all patients was 32.81 (SD 11.92), while the score during the healing period was 30.00 (SD 10.72), and after completion of treatment 27.24 (SD 9.26) (p < 0.001). The most significant improvements in OHIP-G-21 scores were in the indication of edentulous jaw (phase 1, 41.81 (SD 15.53); phase 2, 35.39 (SD 14.22); phase 3, 29.60 (SD 10.12) (p < 0.001). The study revealed significant improvements in the most frequently reported problems (chewing, serious concerns, appearance) (p < 0.001). Insertion of dental implants and prosthodontic rehabilitation led to an improved OHRQoL for patients with all indications for dental implants. Special attention should be paid to patients with edentulous jaw, since in comparison with other indications it had the greatest impact on improving OHRQoL. The psychological dissatisfaction scale of the OHIP-G-21 represented the most important factors for patients, and these scores were substantially influenced by implant therapy. Thus, treating physicians should increase their focus on these factors, in order to avoid dissatisfaction and increase the likelihood of complete implant therapy success.
