This retrospective study evaluated the survival rate of short, sandblasted acid-etched surfaced implants with 6 and 8 mm lengths with at least 120 days of follow-up. Data concerning patient, implant and surgery characteristics were retrieved from clinical records. Sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA)-surfaced tissue-level 6 mm (TL6) or 8 mm (TL8) implants or bone-level tapered 8 mm (BLT8) implants were used. Absolute and relative frequency distributions were calculated for qualitative variables and mean values and standard deviations for quantitative variables. A Cox regression model was performed to verify whether type, length and/or width influence the implant survival. The cumulative implant survival rate was assessed by time-to-event analyses (Kaplan–Meier estimator). In all, 513 patients with a mean age of 58.00 ± 12.44 years received 1008 dental implants with a mean follow-up of 21.57 ± 10.77 months. Most implants (78.17%) presented a 4.1 mm diameter, and the most frequent indication was a partially edentulous arch (44.15%). The most frequent locations were the posterior mandible (53.97%) and the posterior maxilla (31.55%). No significant differences were found in survival rates between groups of type, length and width of implant with the cumulative rate being 97.7% ± 0.5%. Within the limitations of this study, the evaluated short implants are a predictable option with high survival rates during the follow-up without statistical differences between the appraised types, lengths and widths.

Objectives: To analyze radiographically the postoperative kyphosis from patients undergoing surgical treatment for AIS with pedicle screws in all vertebrae included in the arthrodesis. Methods: Retrospective study. The following measurements were evaluated: Cobb angle in anteroposterior radiograph of the three curves (proximal thoracic, main thoracic, and lumbar), Cobb angle in the lateral view of the two curves: thoracic kyphosis (T5-T12) and lumbar lordosis (T12-S1). Results: Of the 25 patients evaluated preoperatively, four (16%) were hypokyphotic, 20 patients (80%) were normokyphotic and only one (4%) was hyperkyphotic. For hypokyphotic and hiperkyphotic patients a satisfactory correction of thoracic kyphosis was obtained in 100% of cases, which was preserved in the final result. The same pattern of thoracic kyphosis was observed for all normokyphotic patients throughout the follow-up. Conclusion: Radiographic evaluation of thoracic kyphosis in patients with AIS treated surgically with pedicle screws in all vertebrae showed satisfactory results with respect to the correction of thoracic kyphosis.

Purpose. The aim is to evaluate the survival and success rates, as well as the marginal bone loss (MBL) and periodontal indexes, of zirconia implants with 10-year follow-up. Materials and Methods. 10 patients were selected and 26 one-piece zirconia implants were used for the rehabilitation of single tooth or partially edentulous ridge. After 10 years, a clinical-radiographic evaluation was performed in order to estimate peri-implant tissue health and marginal bone loss. Results. The survival and success rates were 100%. The average marginal bone loss from baseline to 120 months after surgery was 0.92 ± 0.97 mm. Conclusion. One-piece zirconia dental implants are characterised by high biocompatibility, low plaque adhesion, and absence of microgap that can be related to the clinical success of these implants.

Abstract BackgroundThis is a retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous short segment fixation (PSSF) with or without intermediate screws in Magerl A3 thoracolumbar (TL) fractures accompanied with low bone mineral density (BMD).Methods From January 2017 to December 2018, 30 patients diagnosed with Magerl A3 TL fractures having a BMD between 0.5/cm2 and 1g/cm2 in the lumbar vertebrae with intact neurological functions and a history of major trauma who underwent PSSF with or without intermediate screws were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups of those with intermediate screws (group F) or without (group S). The operation time and intra-operation blood loss were recorded. Oswestry disability index (ODI) questionnaire and visual analogue scale (VAS) were employed as clinical assessments and quantified. Radiographic follow-up assessed according to the Cobb angle (CA), Vertebral wedge angle (VWA), and anterior vertebral body height (AVBH).ResultsLoose screws were observed in 4 of the 30 enrolled patients. Significant differences were observed in operation time and intra-operative blood loss between the two groups. The enrolled patients’ clinical results (VAS and ODI scores) were good, however, no significant differences during all follow-up periods were present between the two groups. Radiographic evaluation (CA, VWA and AVBH) improved immediately after surgery, but significant correction loss was observed in the follow-up periods, especially in the first month. Radiographic evaluation demonstrated no significant differences between the two groups.Conclusion Although the patients’ clinical results were satisfactory, PSSF could not resist the correction loss in Magerl A3 TL fractures accompanied with BMD below 1g/cm2. Accordingly, the use of intermediate pedicle screws may be unnecessary due to their limited ability in resisting correction loss and increasing operation time as well as intra-operation blood loss.

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of opposite tooth conditions on change in marginal bone level (MBL) around submerged dental implants. Materials and methods: The study included healthy patients with one or two implants. Structures opposite implants were either natural teeth (NT) or fixed restorations (FRs). MBLs were measured on digital periapical radiographs at the mesial and distal aspects of each implant. Results: Sixty implants were inserted by the 3-year follow-up. Mean MBLs for NT were 0.21 ± 0.33 mm before prosthetic loading and 0.30 ± 0.41 mm 3 years later (p = 0.001). Mean MBLs with FRs were 0.36 ± 0.45 mm before loading and 0.53 ± 0.50 mm 3 years later (p < 0.001). Changes in mean MBL from the 6-month follow-up to the 1- and 3-year follow-ups were statistically significant (p < 0.01) for implants opposite NT. However, changes in mean MBL from the 6-month follow-up to the 1-year (p = 0.161) and 3-year follow-ups (p = 1.000) were not significant for implants opposite FRs. Between baseline and the 3-year follow-up, MBL change was relatively small and did not differ regarding NT and FRs. Conclusion: Bone loss was greater if submerged dental implants were opposed by FRs. MBLs around submerged implants continued to change after 3 years if NT opposed implants.
