The Association Between Buccal Mucosa Thickness and Periimplant Bone Loss and Attachment Loss: A Cross-Sectional Study
Conclusion:
When the midfacial soft tissue thickness was thin, the midfacial REC was greater and the CAL also tended to be higher. There was no association between buccal mucosa thickness and periimplant bone loss on mesial and distal sites of the implant after 1 year of function. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

The Root Membrane Technique: A Retrospective Clinical Study With Up to 10 Years of Follow-Up
Conclusions:
Within the limits of the retrospective design, the root membrane technique showed long-term success rates comparable to those of conventional immediate implants. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Effects of the Screw-Access Hole Diameter on the Biomechanical Behaviors of 4 Types of Cement-Retained Implant Prosthodontic Systems and Their Surrounding Cortical Bones: A 3D Finite Element Analysis
Conclusions:
From the aspect of biomechanics, an FC crown with a 1-mm access hole is recommended when a combined cement- and screw-retained crown was used in the posterior region. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Bone Formed After Maxillary Sinus Floor Augmentation by Bone Autografting With Hydroxyapatite and Low-Level Laser Therapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial With Histomorphometrical and Immunohistochemical Analyses
Conclusion:
LLLT did not increase the formation of new bone; instead, it accelerated the bone remodeling process. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Effect of Primary Stability and Soft- and Hard-Tissue Thickness on Marginal Bone Loss: A Prospective Pilot Study
Objective:
To compare prospectively the effect of different insertion torques (ITs) on marginal bone stability and study the effect of soft-tissue and buccal bone thickness as confounding factors while using a 3-dimensional radiographic evaluation.
Materials and Methods:
Thirty-nine implants were placed in 22 patients. IT, soft-tissue thickness, and buccal bone thickness were recorded at implant placement. Marginal bone loss was evaluated on individualized periapical radiographs and cone-beam computed tomography at 1 year after loading.
Results:
Three groups of implants emerged based on their IT: group I (45 Ncm). ...

In-Site Monocyte Implantation in Bone Grafting for Maxillary Atrophy Reconstruction: A Preliminary Observational Proof of Concept Study
Conclusions:
Monocytes seem to improve autologous bone-block graft according to the “Therapeutic Angiogenesis” concept. Implementation with monocytes does not always improve xenogeneic particle bone graft. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Acellular Dermal Matrix as a Barrier for Guided Bone Regeneration of Dehiscence Defects Around Dental Implants: A Clinical and Histological Report
The presence of hard tissue dehiscence and thin periodontal biotype in the esthetic area is a challenge that can jeopardize function and aesthetic outcome of implants. Here, we present a successful simultaneous soft tissue and bone regeneration of dehiscence defects in the maxillary incisor region. The novelty of this case lies in the simultaneous bone regeneration and soft tissue augmentation and the use of acellular dermal matrix as a barrier for regeneration and biotype conversion around dental implants. Reentry surgery 5 months after soft tissue and bone augmentation showed more than 95% new bone formation at the facia...

The Low Window Sinus Lift: A CAD-CAM–Guided Surgical Technique for Lateral Sinus Augmentation A Retrospective Case Series
Conclusion:
The low window sinus lift seems to be an effective technique for reducing the risk of sinus-membrane perforation and patient postsurgical discomfort in lateral sinus augmentation. Prospective, comparative studies are needed to investigate whether the technique is more advantageous than the traditional lateral osteotomy and flap-preparation approaches.
