Fracture of Zirconia Abutments in Implant Treatments: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: Lower fracture rates were reported for internal connection with metal component (2-piece) zirconia abutments compared with external and internal full-zirconia connection (one-piece) zirconia abutments. Overpreparation and overload should be avoided in case of zirconia abutments. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Prevalence of Maxillary Sinus Pathology Based on Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Evaluation of Multiethnicity Dental School Population
Conclusions: The prevalence of maxillary sinus pathologies and associations with age, sex, ethnicity, and dentition status were obtained. Thirty-seven percent of scans would require further medical consultation before proceeding with maxillary sinus augmentation surgery for dental implants. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Alveolar Ridge Expansion by Osseodensification-Mediated Plastic Deformation and Compaction Autografting: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
Introduction: Osseodensification preserves bone bulk, facilitates compaction autografting, and deforms trabecular bone in an outward strain, which result in alveolar ridge plastic expansion. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate ridge expansion after osseodensification. Materials and Methods: Patients treated with implant placement through osseodensification were evaluated. The alveolar ridge width was measured at the level of the crest and 10 mm apical to the crest before and after osseodensification. Insertion torque and implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were recorded at implant placements. Expan...

Distribution of Trabecular Bone Density in the Maxilla and Mandible
Conclusions: Bone density of patients displays significant interindividual variation, thus meaningful assessment must be conducted on a patient-by-patient basis. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Evaluation of the Submandibular Fossa in a Group of Dental Implant Patients
Conclusions: Mandibles with any lingual concavity pose a potential increased risk of lingual cortical perforation during surgery. This study revealed that the alveolar bone resorption occurs both vertically and horizontally, and the preservation of teeth can limit the bone resorption. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Ridge Architecture Preservation Following Minimally Traumatic Exodontia Techniques and Guided Tissue Regeneration
Conclusion: Socket coverage with polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) membrane showed to effectively preserve bone architecture. Bone formation within sockets was not influenced by tooth extraction technique. (Source: Implant Dentistry)
