Differentiation: How AI can help you to find a unique voice in a crowded dental marketplace

Patients rarely connect with technical descriptions of implant procedures, but they do resonate with the impact that those procedures have on changing lives. Instead of focusing on bone integration or surgical protocols, stories should highlight outcomes such as renewed confidence, enjoying meals without discomfort, or smiling freely in social situations.

Marginal bone level changes in full-arch rehabilitation: digital versus analog protocols – a 5-year retrospective study

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of analog impressions versus intraoral scanning in full-arch immediate loading rehabilitations. Specifically, it evaluates peri-implant marginal bone level (MBL) changes at different time intervals (implant placement, loading, and at 2 and 5 years), as well as rates of mechanical and prosthetic complications. The study included 62 patients who underwent full-arch rehabilitation with immediate implant placement between 2019 and 2020.

Osseointegration in the absence of primary stability: an experimental preclinical mandibular minipig overpreparation in vivo model

The effect of osteotomy overpreparation, and thus lack of primary stability, on implant osseointegration and crestal bone volume maintenance was investigated by comparing placement of dental implants with either a standard osteotomy preparation (NP) or an overprepared osteotomy (OP) where the final osteotomy drill was larger in diameter than the implant placed.

Minimally invasive alveolar ridge reconstruction using permamem® and maxgraft® followed by delayed implant placement in the anterior esthetic zone

This clinical case report presents a successful alveolar ridge reconstruction performed through a minimally invasive approach using a Permamem® barrier membrane and Maxgraft® in region #11. The procedure was followed by delayed implant placement in combination with esthetic crown lengthening and a subepithelial connective tissue graft. After conditioning the peri-implant mucosa with a provisional restoration, a definitive crown was placed, achieving both the patient’s esthetic expectations and functional demands.

Role of keratinized mucosa on the risk of peri-implant diseases and soft tissue dehiscence in the posterior mandible-a 20-year prospective cohort study

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 20-year outcomes of tissue-level implants placed in the posterior mandible, comparing implants surrounded by keratinized tissue (KT) or alveolar mucosa (AM). At baseline, 128 patients (128 implants) were rehabilitated with implant-supported fixed dental prostheses in the posterior mandible and enrolled in a supportive periodontal/peri-implant care (SPC) program.

Differentiation: How AI can help you to find a unique voice in a crowded dental marketplace

Patients rarely connect with technical descriptions of implant procedures, but they do resonate with the impact that those procedures have on changing lives. Instead of focusing on bone integration or surgical protocols, stories should highlight outcomes such as renewed confidence, enjoying meals without discomfort, or smiling freely in social situations.

Marginal bone level changes in full-arch rehabilitation: digital versus analog protocols – a 5-year retrospective study

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of analog impressions versus intraoral scanning in full-arch immediate loading rehabilitations. Specifically, it evaluates peri-implant marginal bone level (MBL) changes at different time intervals (implant placement, loading, and at 2 and 5 years), as well as rates of mechanical and prosthetic complications. The study included 62 patients who underwent full-arch rehabilitation with immediate implant placement between 2019 and 2020.

Straumann® ProTalk Ep. 17 with Carlos Aparicio: From rural medicine to redefining zygomatic implants

Carlos Aparicio frames his path as an evolution: he starts as a rural family physician in northwest Spain, riding a motorbike between villages with scarce infrastructure, and later pivots to dentistry in Barcelona. Early exposure to osseointegration – through training in Gothenburg and mentorship from Per-Ingvar Brånemark – sets his trajectory in implantology.

Osseointegration in the absence of primary stability: an experimental preclinical mandibular minipig overpreparation in vivo model

The effect of osteotomy overpreparation, and thus lack of primary stability, on implant osseointegration and crestal bone volume maintenance was investigated by comparing placement of dental implants with either a standard osteotomy preparation (NP) or an overprepared osteotomy (OP) where the final osteotomy drill was larger in diameter than the implant placed.

Radiographic peri-implant bone changes in osteoporotic women treated with a ti-zr, bone level tapered implant with a hydrophilic surface: a 12-month prospective case-series

The purpose of this study was to assess 12-month post-loading 3D peri-implant radiographic bone changes in osteoporotic women receiving a single titanium-zirconium bone-level tapered dental implant with a hydrophilic surface. This was a prospective case series involving 18 post-menopausal osteoporotic women in need of a single dental implant.

Minimally invasive alveolar ridge reconstruction using permamem® and maxgraft® followed by delayed implant placement in the anterior esthetic zone

This clinical case report presents a successful alveolar ridge reconstruction performed through a minimally invasive approach using a Permamem® barrier membrane and Maxgraft® in region #11. The procedure was followed by delayed implant placement in combination with esthetic crown lengthening and a subepithelial connective tissue graft. After conditioning the peri-implant mucosa with a provisional restoration, a definitive crown was placed, achieving both the patient’s esthetic expectations and functional demands.

Analysis of bone dimensional stability after two-stage maxillary sinus floor augmentation with autogenous bone versus bovine bone mineral combined with autogenous bone chips

Results from a 1-year multicenter split-mouth randomized controlled trial. The purpose of this study was to compare the dimensional stability of augmented bone following maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA) using autogenous bone (AB) alone or bovine bone mineral combined with locally harvested AB chips (BBM), one year after implant loading. A secondary analysis of a split-mouth, multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted among 20 patients (40 implants).
