Editor’s choice
The editor’s choice of this issue is the article “Long-Term Clinical, Radiographic and Esthetic Outcomes of Zirconia Dental Implants: A 10-Year Prospective Multicenter Study” authored by S Roehling, published in Clinical Oral Implants Research. The authors evaluated the long-term clinical performance of the Straumann PURE Monotype dental implant system over 10 years. They report high long-term survival and success rates, moderate bone loss, and favorable esthetic outcomes. These findings support the use of ceramic implants as a clinically reliable and esthetically acceptable long-term alternative to titanium implants.
