  1. 1. Aspects of maxillary sinus reconstruction with endosseous implants

    Author : John Eric Blomqvist; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Odontologi; Odontology; stomatology; sinus inlay bone augmentation.; osteomorphometry; osteometry; maxillary sinus reconstruction; maxilla; bone graft; Alveolar bone loss; dental implants; implant position; bone;

    Abstract : This study of maxillary sinus reconstruction in conjunction with insertion of endosseous implants included 99 patients. Two separate surgical methods were applied; a one-staged strategy (n=49) and a two-staged strategy (n=50). The aims were to compare two different strategies concerning implant and prosthetic construction survival. READ MORE

  2. 2. On bone quality and implant stability measurements

    Author : Bertil Friberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; early failures; titanium implants; jaw bone quality; jaw bone volume; cutting torque; implant stability; resonance frequency; one-stage surgery;

    Abstract : In conjuction with placement of oral implants, the jaw bone quality assessment is mainly based on quantitative radiographic measures and the subjective opinion of the performing surgeon. While the primary implant stability is discussed in terms of the pre-set motor torque and the subjective hand-felt perception during final tightening of implants, the secondary stability is defined as the absence of implant mobility.

  3. 3. Novel Materials and Implant Designs for the Treatment of Degenerative Disc Disease

    Author : Salim Ghandour; Cecilia Persson; Donal McNally; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Topology Optimization; Spine; Intervertebral Disc; Papain; Additive Manufacturing; Biomechanics; Bone Cement; PMMA; Calcium Phosphate; Cage; Fusion; Engineering Science with specialization in Biomedical Engineering; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot medicinsk teknik;

    Abstract : The overarching objective of this thesis was to develop intervertebral implants for degenerated discs through design, fabrication, and mechanical validation. The research had four primary aims, each addressing different facets of implant development. READ MORE

  4. 4. Assessment of acetabular cup position with computed tomography

    Author : Henrik Olivecrona; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Revision of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) due to loosening is necessary in many patients. Diagnosis is usually late with significant bone and soft tissue destruction. Available diagnostic techniques are either not sensitive enough or too complicated and expensive for routine use. READ MORE

  5. 5. Single implants in the anterior maxilla in young adults

    Author : Nicole Winitsky; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Single anterior implants are frequently used in the treatment of patients with single anterior tooth loss. Compared with other types of implant treatments, single implants are commonly performed in younger patients where the cause of tooth loss often is non-inflammatory. READ MORE
