Immediate/Early Function of Neoss Implants Placed in Maxillas and Posterior Mandibles: An 18‐Month Prospective Case Series Study

Abstract

Within the limitations of the present study, it is concluded that immediate/early function with Neoss implants is a reliable method with an implant survival rate comparable to that of the traditional two-stage protocol.

Dental implants inserted in fresh extraction sockets versus healed sites: A systematic review and meta-analysis

“…Twelve studies 8,14,32,34,35,38,65,66,69,71,73,77 informed whether there was a statistically significant difference or not in the implant failure rates between the procedures. Forty-four studies 2,3,[6][7][8]14,16,17,20,22,24,26,27,29,[32][33][34][35][36]39,40,44,46,49,52,53,[55][56][57]59,[61][62][63][64][65][66][69][70][71][73]…”

“…Patients were submitted to grafting procedures at the implant site in thirty-five studies. 2,9,[14][15][16]18,20,21,23,26,29,33,36,37,39,41,42,44,45,53,57,[60][61][62][63][64][67][68][69][72][73][74][76][77][78] Implants were inserted exclusively in maxillae in seventeen studies 2,16,20,27,31,[33][34][35]37,38,52,53,59,66,71,72,74 and in mandibles in six stu...…”

“…Continued )for the studies assessing implants being rehabilitated only with full-arch prosthesis (sixteen studies) were 1922 (67 failures, 3.49%) and 2082 (61 failures, 2.93%), respectively.Seventeen studies reported the incidence of postoperative infection, of which fifteen studies3,14,17,21,26,29,33,39,57,60,65,67,71,72,74 reported the events separated by group. Thirty-five studies provided information about marginal bone loss, but only fifteen studies2,8,24,27,[32][33][34][35][37][38][39]41,61,63,67,74 reported the mean and standard deviation values separated by group, necessary for the performance of the meta-analysis of a continuous outcome.…”

A One-year Follow-up Study of a Tapered Hydrophilic Implant Design Using Various Placement Protocols in the Maxilla

“…Clinical studies on the Neoss implant design (Neoss Straight) with a minimally rough blasted surface (Bimodal) have demonstrated high survival rates and minimal marginal bone loss with two-stage protocols and other more challenging procedures after 1 to 5 years of follow-up [16, 17]. However, this surface has shown more prone to failure in early loading [18] and in GBR cases [17] compared to the newer hydrophilic and moderately rough surface (Proactive) [18, 19].…”

Factors Affecting the Success of Dental Implants

“…However, the applied load is often reduced or even absent; therefore, it is more correct to use the term "immediate/early function" rather than "immediate/early loading." Moreover, the subdivision between "immediate function" (when the prosthesis is applied within hours from the implant insertion) and "early function" (when the prosthesis is applied earlier than the traditional period of 3 to 6 months) has been accepted (Bogaerde et al, 2010).…”
