Summary:

Implant dentistry continues to impact the quality of care for patients with missing teeth. Through continued product advancements, dental implants are now a viable solution for almost all edentulous scenarios.

With the availability of small-diameter implants less than 3.5 mm, such as the Astra Tech OsseoSpeed™ 3.0 S implant, these narrow sites can be more readily managed and esthetic outcomes successfully achieved, often eliminating the need for bone augmentation or orthodontic tooth movement.

Implant Therapy-Sequence of Surgical & Restorative Phases
Failure of the natural dentition due to periodontal- or endodontic-related osseous infections may complicate implant therapy. Sequencing (ie, staging) of the surgical aspects of the treatment is essential to achieve the desired restorative objectives. Additionally, for indications in which the adjacent natural teeth require cosmetic enhancement as part of the overall treatment plan, proper sequencing will influence the definitive results. The following article discusses the surgical and restorative…

Immediate Loading of Osseotitie Implants-After 4 months
A growing number of clinical reports show that early and immediate loading of endosseous implants may lead to predictable osseointegration; however, these studies provide mostly short- to mid-term results based only on clinical mobility and radiographic observation. Other methods are needed to detect the possible presence of a thin fibrous interposition of tissue that could increase in the course of time and lead to clinical mobility. A histologic evaluation was performed on two immediately loaded…
