A 1‐Year Prospective Clinical and Radiographic Study of Early‐Loaded Bone Level Implants in the Posterior Maxilla

Abstract

Bone level implants with the SLActive surface placed into low-density bone and loaded after 6 weeks of healing can predictably achieve and maintain a successful tissue integration.

Randomized clinical study of the peri‐implant healing to hydrophilic and hydrophobic implant surfaces in patients receiving anticoagulants

“…Additionally, this study reported that even in these medically compromised patients, it was possible to achieve stable implant stability after the initial bone remodeling, although implant stability values were significantly lower than in the moment of insertion from the first and third postoperative week in the SLActive and SLA group, respectively. The results of present research do not correlate with the findings of previous studies, where ISQ in the end of follow-up period exceeded the baseline values (Huwiler et al 2007;Han et al 2010;Markovic et al 2015). These somewhat lower ISQ values in present research might be attributed to the coumarin medication and its effect on bone tissue.…”

Immediate provisionalization of bone level implants with a hydrophilic surface. A five‐year follow‐up of a randomized controlled clinical trial

“…Moreover, the improvement in implant surface technologies, with the development of microrough hydrophilic surfaces, has allowed to significantly accelerate the osseointegration process (Calciolari et al, 2017;Donos et al, 2011;Lang et al, 2011), with the possibility to functionally load the implants already 3-6 weeks after implant placement both in the anterior and posterior areas (Bornstein, Wittneben, Bragger, & Buser, 2010;Markovic et al, 2015;Morton et al, 2010).…”
