Clinical and radiographic performance of self-locking conical connection implants in the posterior mandible: Five-year results of a two-centre prospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This prospective study aims to assess the 5-year clinical performance of implants with internal conical connection and platform-switched abutments in the posterior mandible.

Material and methods

Healthy adults missing at least two teeth in the posterior mandible and with a natural tooth mesial to the implant site received two or three adjacent implants. After a transmucosal healing period single crown restorations were cemented on platform-switched abutments. Changes in marginal bone levels were investigated in standardized periapical radiographs from surgery and loading (baseline) to 60-months post-loading.

Results

Twenty-four patients received 52 implants. Bone remodelling took place between surgery and loading (mean:-0.5, SD:±0.4 mm). From loading to 60 months, there was a mean bone change of 0.27 (SD:±0.47 mm) which stabilized 24 months after prosthesis delivery (mean:0.2, SD:±0.46 mm). 71.7% of all implants presented bone preservation at 60 months irrespective of the initial insertion depth. Two implants were lost after 5 years and the success rate was 95.1%. Patient enquiry revealed high satisfaction.

Conclusion

Internal conical connection implants with platform-switched abutments presented a high success rate and preservation of marginal bone levels at the implant shoulder after 5 years of loading.

Immediately provisionalized tapered conical connection implants for single-tooth restorations in the maxillary esthetic zone: a 5-year prospective single-cohort multicenter analysis.

Project description:ObjectivesThis open, single-cohort, multicenter, prospective study investigated the efficacy of immediately provisionalized tapered conical connection implant for single-tooth restorations in the anterior and premolar regions of the maxilla after 5 years of function.Materials and methodsAll implants were placed in healed sites and immediately provisionalized. MBLs, soft-tissue parameters, and oral-health impact profile (OHIP) were evaluated at implant insertion, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 60 months. Paired Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used for statistical and implant survival/success analyses, respectively.ResultsSeventy-seven patients (81 implants) completed the 5-year follow-up. The 5-year cumulative survival and success rates were 97.8%, and the mean MBL change from implant insertion to 5 years was - 0.80 ± 1.13 mm. Optimal papilla index scores were observed at 90.1% of sites at 5 years compared with 32.8% of sites at insertion. Pink esthetic score, modified bleeding and plaque indices, and OHIP showed statistically significant improvement at the 5-year follow-up.ConclusionsImmediately provisionalized tapered conical connection implants promote marginal bone stability and excellent esthetic outcomes after 5 years of function.Clinical relevanceThis treatment is a viable option for patients requiring immediately provisionalized single-tooth restorations in the esthetic zone and shows favorable long-term clinical outcomes, including marginal bone stability and excellent esthetics.

An open prospective single cohort multicenter study evaluating the novel, tapered, conical connection implants supporting single crowns in the anterior and premolar maxilla: interim 1-year results.

Project description:ObjectivesThe aim of this multicenter prospective clinical study was to evaluate anodized tapered implants with a conical connection and integrated platform shifting placed in the anterior and premolar maxilla.Materials and methodsThe study enrolled patients requiring single-tooth restorations in healed sites of maxillary anterior and premolar teeth. All implants were immediately temporized. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were conducted at implant insertion, 6 months, and 1 year. Outcome measures included bone remodeling, cumulative survival rate (CSR), success rate, soft-tissue health and esthetics, and patient satisfaction. Bone remodeling and pink esthetic score were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. CSR was calculated using life table analysis. Other soft-tissue outcomes were analyzed using sign tests.ResultsOut of 97 enrolled patients (102 implants), 87 patients (91 implants) completed the 1-year visit. Marginal bone remodeling was -0.85 ± 1.36 mm. After the expected initial bone loss, a mean bone gain of 0.11 ± 1.05 mm was observed between 6 months and 1 year. The CSR was 99.0%, and the cumulative success rate was 97.0%. Partial or full papilla was observed at 30.8% of sites at baseline, 87.2% at 6 months, and 90.5% at 1 year. Soft-tissue response, esthetics, and patient satisfaction all improved during the study period.ConclusionsBone gain was observed following the expected initial bone loss, and soft-tissue outcomes improved suggesting favorable tissue response using anodized tapered conical connection implants.Clinical relevanceRapid stabilization of bone remodeling and robust papilla regeneration indicate favorable tissue healing promoted by the conical connection, platform-shift design.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov NCT02175550.

Marginal Bone Loss in Internal Conical Connection Implants Placed at the Crestal and Subcrestal Levels before Prosthetic Loading: A Randomized Clinical Study.

Project description:The vertical position concerning the bone in which the implants are placed has been related as one of the factors causing marginal bone loss. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bone loss that occurs before prosthetic loading around tapered internal connection (CIC) implants placed at the crestal (C) and subcrestal (S) levels.MethodA randomized clinical trial (RCT) was carried out, with a sample size of 62 implants placed in 27 patients who underwent radiological controls on the day of placement, at one month, and at 4 months, and stability was measured by resonance frequency analysis (RFA) on three occasions.ResultsBone loss in implants C and S from the time of placement (T0) and the month after (T1) was not significant (p = 0.54) (C = 0.19 mm and S = 0.15 mm). The difference between one month (T1) and four months (T2) (C = 0.17 mm and S = 0.22 mm) was not significant either (p = 0.26). The difference between the day of placement (T0) and the third and last measurement (T2) was almost null (p = 0.94) (C = 0.35 mm and S = 0.36). The overall success rate of the implants was 97.8%. The stability of the implants measured with RFA went from 70.60 (T0) to 73.16 (T1) and 74.52 (T2).ConclusionsNo significant differences were found in the bone loss for implants placed at the C and S levels. The millimeters of bone loss detected in both vertical positions did not have a significant impact on the stability of the implants.

Five-Year Retrospective Analysis of Eurosilicone's Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants.

Project description:BackgroundSilicone breast implants have been widely used for breast augmentation and reconstruction. During this time, silicone breast implants have undergone several modifications to improve their safety, quality, and clinical performance. Complications such as reoperation, capsular contracture, and rupture are risks often associated with breast implants.ObjectivesThe authors conducted a retrospective study to analyze and report complication rates associated with Eurosilicone's (Eurosilicone S.A.S, Apt, Cedex, France) silicone gel-filled breast implants over a period of 5 years.MethodsIn this retrospective clinical study, 2151 women who underwent either breast augmentation or breast reconstruction with Eurosilicone breast implants were diagnosed. Data on early and late complications including implant removal (explantation/exchange), capsular contracture, and rupture were collected using questionnaires, completed by 39 surgeons across Italy.ResultsOf the 2151, only 60 patients (2.78%) required implant removal. Twenty-five patients experienced capsular contracture (Baker Grade III/IV), giving an actual rate of 1.2%. The actual rate of implant rupture confirmed by breast magnetic resonance images was 0.18% (4 implants). Six patients (0.27%) were diagnosed with breast cancer following breast augmentation, and local complications including hematoma (1 patient) and seroma (2 patients) were experienced.ConclusionsThis retrospective clinical study involving Eurosilicone's round and anatomical textured silicone gel-filled mammary implants demonstrates an excellent safety profile through 5 years.Level of Evidence: 2.

Effect of platform switching on crestal bone levels around implants in the posterior mandible: 3 years results from a multicentre randomized clinical trial.

Project description:ObjectiveEvaluation of differences in the clinical performance and crestal bone levels between implants restored with single crowns with platform-matched or platform-switched abutments after 3 years.Material and methodsThe study enrolled adult patients missing two or more adjacent teeth in the posterior mandible with natural teeth mesial to the implant site. Randomization followed open-flap implant insertion and the corresponding matching or switching healing abutments placed at surgery. Conventional loading was made with cemented crowns. Clinical follow-up took place annually after loading up to 3 years. Bone level changes were measured in standardized radiographs as the variation in crestal bone from one evaluation to the next.ResultsSixty-three patients with a total of 135 implants (66 platform matching, 69 platform switching) were analysed. From surgery to 36 months, mean bone loss was 0.28 ± 0.56 mm for the platform-switching group and 0.68 ± 0.64 mm for the platform-matching group. A statistically significant difference was found between groups (p = 0.002) with an estimate of 0.39 mm (0.15-0.64, 95% CI) in favour of platform switching.ConclusionsAfter 3 years, platform-switching restorations showed a significant effect in the preservation of marginal bone levels compared to platform-matching restorations.

Comparison of Osteoimmunological and Microbiological Parameters of Extra Short and Longer Implants Loaded in the Posterior Mandible: A Split Mouth Randomized Clinical Study.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the levels of TNF-α, PGE2, RANKL, RANK, OPG, the markers of periimplant bone loss in peri-implant crevicular fluid obtained around standard and extra short implants. Moreover, the levels of putative oral pathogens were investigated in the submucosal biofilm samples.Material and methodsThe implants were divided into two groups according to their lengths: standard (≥8 mm) and extra short (4 mm). A total of 60 implants were researched in 30 patients. The probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), presence of bleeding on probing (BOP), 3-year survival rate (CSR), and bone loss (BL) were measured.ResultsNo statistically significant difference was found in the values of PD, CAL, BOP, CSR, and BL between the groups (P> 0.05). Total amounts of PGE2, TNF-α, RANKL, RANK, OPG, and RANKL/OPG were not statistically significantly different between the groups (P> 0.05). The abundance of F. nucleatum, T. forsythia, P. intermedia, P. gingivalis, S. oralis and T. denticola was compared between the groups and the results were not statistically significant (P> 0.05).ConclusionThe results of this study suggested that PGE2, TNF-α, RANKL, RANK, OPG, and RANKL/OPG in PICF, as well as microbiological parameters in submucosal biofilms, were similar between standard (≥8 mm) and extra short (4 mm) implants. Therefore, the implant length does not seem to influence the bone loss, levels of osteoimmunological and microbiological markers in the peri-implant tissues and survival rates.

Spinal Radiographic Progression in Early Axial Spondyloarthritis: Five-Year Results From the DESIR Cohort.

Project description:ObjectiveTo analyze the progression of spinal radiographic damage in patients with early axial spondyloarthritis (SpA).MethodsAxial SpA patients from the DESIR (Devenir des Spondylarthropathies Indifférenciées Récentes) cohort with 5-year spinal (cervical and lumbar) radiographs available (n = 549) were included. Two- and 5-year modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (mSASSS) progression and development of new syndesmophytes (net change: the number of patients with positive change minus the number of patients with negative change divided by the total number of patients) were assessed in subgroups defined at baseline according to the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society axial SpA criteria and its arms, modified New York criteria (mNYC) and the presence of syndesmophytes.ResultsMean ± SD mSASSS progression was 0.2 ± 0.9 at 2 years and 0.4 ± 1.8 at 5 years. Five-year progression was higher in the imaging arm (mean ± SD 0.6 ± 2.3), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)+/mNYC+ (mean ± SD 1.3 ± 4.0), than in the clinical arm only (mean ± SD 0.1 ± 0.7), and highest in patients with syndesmophytes (mean ± SD 2.7 ± 5.0). At 5 years, 7% of all patients had a net change of any new syndesmophyte; this value was 10% for the imaging arm (mNYC+/MRI+ with 18%), 17% for mNYC+ patients, and 42% for patients with syndesmophytes.ConclusionSpinal radiographic progression, although limited in early axial SpA, can be captured after 2 years. Inflammation and damage in the sacroiliac joint are associated with higher radiographic progression. The presence of baseline syndesmophytes already strongly predicts the development of further structural damage early in the disease.

A Five-Year Comparative Functional and Clinical Evaluation of Two Contemporary Cruciate-Retaining Knee Implants.

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of our study was to compare 2 commonly used highly successful cruciate-retaining knee designs on the basis of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), range of motion (ROM), and anterior knee pain (AKP) at a minimum follow-up of 5 years.MethodsA cohort of 65 patients underwent unilateral total knee arthroplasty, from January 2013 to December 2013, using NexGen Cruciate Retaining (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN), a nonmorphogenic knee (NMK) system. They were subsequently operated upon for the contralateral knee using Persona Cruciate Retaining (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN), a morphogenic knee (MK) system between January 2014 and June 2014. Of the 65 patients, 63 participated in this study. All the patients were compared preoperatively and postoperatively on the basis of PROMs, ROM, and AKP.ResultsOn the basis of PROMs, ROM, and AKP, there was a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups favoring the MK group, with an ROM of 126.14° in the MK group as compared with 120.76° in the NMK group and P value of <.01.ConclusionsPROMs, ROM, and AKP improved significantly over time after total knee arthroplasty using both MK and NMK implants; however, the outcomes of the former were better than those of the latter, although this difference was not clinically significant.

Five-year-old 'Wink' grape cultivar

Project description:microRNAs(miRNAs) play critical regulatory roles mainly through cleaving targeted mRNAs or repressing gene translation during plant developments. Grapevine is amongst the most economically important fruit crops with whole genome available, and the study on grapevine miRNAs (Vv-miRNAs) have also been emphasized. However, the regulation mode of Vv-miRNAs on their target mRNAs during grapevine development has not been studied well, especially on a transcriptome-wide level. Here, six small RNA (sRNA) and mRNA libraries from various grapevine tissues were constructed for Illumina and Degradome sequencing. Subsequently, the spatiotemporal variation in the Vv-miRNAs’ regulation on their target genes was systematically analyzed. Totally, 242 known and 132 novel Vv-miRNAs were identified, and 193 target mRNAs including 103 for known and 90 for novel miRNAs were validated in one or more of tissues examined. The interesting finding was that over 50% of novel miRNAs were expressed exclusively in flowers or berries where they had tissue-specific cleavage roles on their target genes, especially, the breadth of their cleavage sites in flower tissues. Moreover, six novel miRNAs in berries were found to response to exogenous gibberellin (GA) and/or ethylene by real time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, confirming their regulatory functions during berry development. Other finding was that about 93.6% of the known miRNAs possessed the high conservation in various tissues where their expression levels exhibited some dynamic variations during grapevine development. Significantly, it was found the phenomena that some Vv-miRNA families exist one key member that act as the main regulator of their target genes during grapevine development.

Primary Stability of Dental Implants in Low-Density (10 and 20 pcf) Polyurethane Foam Blocks: Conical vs Cylindrical Implants.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The aim of the present study was to compare, in low-density polyurethane blocks, the primary implant stability values (micromobility) and removal torque values of three different implant geometries in two different bone densities representing the structure of the human posterior jaws. METHODS:A total of 60 implants were used in the present investigation: twenty implants for each of three groups (group A, group B, and group C), in both polyurethane 10 pcf and 20 pcf densities. The insertion torque, pull-out torque, and implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were obtained. RESULTS:No differences were found in the values of Group A and Group B implants. In both these groups, the insertion torques were quite low in the 10 pcf blocks. Better results were found in the 20 pcf blocks, which showed very good stability of the implants. The pull-out values were slightly lower than the insertion torque values. High ISQ values were found in Group A and B implants. Lower values were present in Group C implants. CONCLUSIONS:The present investigation evaluated implants with different geometries that are available on the market, and not experimental implants specifically created for the study. The authors aimed to simulate real clinical conditions (poor-density bone or immediate post-extraction implants) in which knowledge of dental implant features, which may be useful in increasing the primary stability, may help the oral surgeon during the surgery planning.
