Scientific Highlights No. 04/2025

In the current issue of the Straumann® Scientific Highlights newsletter, we would like to draw your attention to the latest research articles published between June and July 2025.


Editor’s choice


In this issue, the editor’s choice is the article published in the Clinical Oral Implants Research, “Five Year Clinical, Radiographic and Soft Tissue Profilometric Outcomes at Two Narrow-Diameter Implants to Replace Missing Maxillary Lateral Incisors” authored by Andrea Roccuzzo.

In their study, the authors compared the 5-year outcomes in patients with congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors (MLIs) rehabilitated with 2.9mm and 3.3mm implants. They reported that the use of both implant diameters delivered comparable long-term results. Therefore, clinicians can rely on both implant types to replace congenitally missing MLIs.
