Evaluation of Space-Maintaining Sinus Membrane Using the Absorbable Screws in Sinus Lifting Bone Augmentation
Conclusions:
Sinus lift surgery using absorbable screw allowed bone formation. The UV-treated hydroxyapatite/poly-L-lactic acid (uHA/PLLA) was superior for sinus lift bone augmentation using a screw. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Comparison of Xenogeneic Collagen Matrix vs. Free Gingival Grafts to Increase the Zone of Keratinized Mucosa Around Functioning Implants
Conclusion:
CM grafts achieved results comparable to those of FGGs in augmented tissue. They do not negatively affect probing depths, MR, or bleeding on probing. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

The Influence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus on the Osseointegration of Titanium Implants With Different Surface Modifications—A Histomorphometric Study in High-Fat Diet/Low-Dose Streptozotocin–Treated Rats
Conclusions:
Implants with HA coating and SLA surface modifications seem to have the potential to increase osseointegration also in T2DM rats when compared with a conventional machined surface. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Nonsurgical Treatment of Peri-implantitis Without Eliminating Granulation Tissue: A 3-Year Study
Conclusion:
Nonsurgical implant debridement alone seemed not efficient in the treatment of peri-implantitis. Further longitudinal studies are required to evaluate the efficacy of mechanical debridement with chemical detoxification and removal of granulation tissues against mechanical debridement with chemical detoxification alone.

Bifid Mandibular Canal: A Case Review and Retrospective Review of CBCTs
Conclusion:
BMCs are an important anatomic variation that has implications on any mandibular surgery, including implant surgery. Just more than 1% of patients have this variation, but failure to recognize this in a patient can result in poor outcome, as illustrated in the case presented. (Source: Implant Dentistry)

Comparison of Pixel Values of Maxillary Sinus Grafts and Adjacent Native Bone With Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
This study aimed to correlate and compare pixel values of healed maxillary sinus grafts and adjacent native bone (NB).
Material and Methods:
This study was conducted on CBCT scan patients referred for maxillary sinus floor augmentation with biphasic calcium phosphate (n = 31). Graft height and width measurements were performed. In addition, mean pixel values were calculated in 3 different regions: NB, sinus graft close to NB (CNB), and sinus graft far from NB (FNB). Micro-CT and histological analyses of bone specimens of a representative case were also performed.
Results:
Significant correlations were found between C...

CaP Coating and Low-Level Laser Therapy to Stimulate Early Bone Formation and Improve Fixation of Rough Threaded Implants
This study aimed to compare in vivo osteogenesis on rough threaded dental implants with and without calcium phosphate (CaP) coating deposition, alone or in association with low-level laser therapy (LLLT) by gallium aluminum arsenide.
Material and Methods:
Four groups were studied: G1: implant; G2: implant + CaP coating; G3: implant + LLLT; and G4: implant + CaP coating + LLLT. LLLT was applied for 7 days at the surgical site before and after placing the implant. Topographic characterization was performed before surgery using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersion spectrophotometry. Bone-implant contact (BIC)...
