Aim: To assess whether the use of deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) and native bilayer collagen membrane (NBCM) improved healing of peri-implantitisrelated bone defects at 12 months. Materials and methods: In a multi-centre, randomized clinical trial, 32 individuals received surgical debridement (control group [CG]), and 34 received adjunct use of DBBM and NBCM (test group [TG]). Radiographic defect fill (RDF), probing pocket depth (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP)

This study indicates that IODs retained with double crowns offer predictable long-term performance with a limited incidence of biological and technical complications.

The clinical precision of fit of restorations produced with a CI and an IS technique appeared to be equivalent. Therefore, the IS technique can be rated as a suitable alternative for the manufacturing of single crowns.
