Summary: The study found that the C/I ratio and peri-implant bone resorption in short implants have a significant impact on the generated stress, with resorption leading to a significant increase in stress values. The preference of crown materials does not affect stress distribution in the bone and implant structure under static loading.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of crown-implant ratio (CIR) and implant inclination on marginal bone loss (MBL) in dental implants supporting single crowns. The results showed that implant inclination and anatomical and clinical CIR were not significantly related to MBL over time, while age, tooth region, and bruxism had a significant influence on MBL.

Summary: In this study, it was found that interproximal implant thread exposure may be an independent risk indicator for peri-implantitis. Clinicians should closely monitor patients with implant threads that have no bone-to-implant contact for incident peri-implantitis.

Summary: The study found that DAE surfaces reduce peri-implant bone loss compared to machined surfaces, with a significant impact in the first year post implant insertion. However, in the long term, this surface treatment did not significantly affect soft tissue and bone maintenance.

Summary: After 5 years of follow-up, there was no significant difference in marginal bone level changes, buccal bone thickness, clinical outcomes, esthetic ratings, and patient-reported satisfaction between immediate implant placement with bone defects >= 5 mm and delayed implant placement after ridge preservation in the esthetic zone.

Summary: The use of therapeutic agents that inhibit bone resorption is important for the longevity of implants, revision surgeries, and the healthcare system. This review focuses on incorporating osteoclast inhibitors into bioactive coatings for bone implants and discusses the challenges of systemic treatment. It also explores the suitable concentrations, release times, and effects of the antiresorptive agents on nearby cells or bone tissue. However, further research is needed to optimize implant design and personalize the coating material and antiresorptive agent selection.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the survival, changes in marginal bone level, and prosthetic complications rate of short and longer implants supporting a single-crown restoration in the posterior maxilla/mandible. The results showed no significant differences between the two types of implants in terms of clinical outcomes.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate hard and soft tissues around implants in the posterior mandible 1 year after vertical ridge augmentation. The results showed that the GBR treatment with titanium meshes plus collagen membranes did not have significant differences in peri-implant bone level change compared to reinforced PTFE membranes. Both groups demonstrated stable hard and soft tissues after 1 year of follow-up.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the survival rate, marginal bone levels, and full arch prosthetic success of short implants in severely resorbed and edentulous mandibles. A systematic review of three relevant studies found short-term dental implant survival rates ranging from 94.2% to 97.4% with a five-year follow-up, and prosthetic success rates around 62% during the same follow-up. The mean marginal bone level values of the affected short implants ranged from 0.2 mm to 0.6 mm. It was concluded that short dental implants positioned with precision as a full-arch fixed support are a valid therapeutic choice for medium-long-term rehabilitation of severe edentulous mandibular atrophy.

Summary: This systematic review aimed to investigate the effect of implant diameter on implant survival rate, prosthetic survival rate, and peri-implant parameters. The results showed no significant difference in implant survival rate between narrow and regular diameter implants, but narrow implants had a higher bleeding on probing rate.

Summary: This study aimed to review the levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and osteoclastogenesis-related factors in peri-implant diseases. The results showed that the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, and RANKL/OPG were not balanced in peri-implant diseases, suggesting their involvement in the host response related to peri-implantitis.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the influence of crown-to-implant (C/I) ratio on clinical outcomes of implant-supported single crowns. Results showed no significant impact of C/I ratio on implant survival rate and marginal bone loss. Qualitative data suggested that marginal bone loss increased with higher C/I ratios.

Summary: This retrospective study compared the clinical outcomes of single implant-supported crowns and implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs). It found that mean marginal bone loss around the supporting implants of FDPs was greater than on single implant-supported crowns at one year after implant loading. Biological and technical complications occurred rarely, with screw loosening being the main technical complication observed.

Summary: A study found that short implants with a cantilever and two adjacent short implants with single tooth restorations have similar clinical and radiographic outcomes at 5 years, but short implants with a cantilever tend to fail earlier.
