  1. 1. Studies on maxillary overdentures : implant- and prosthesis survival, cost analysis and patient-reported outcomes

    Author : Peyman Ghiasi; Christel Larsson; Bruno Chrcanovic; Sofia Petrén; Victoria Franke Stenport; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prosthodontic; Dental Implants; Dental Prosthesis; Implant-Supported overdenture; cost analysis; Maxilla; Prosthesis Failure;

    Abstract : Edentulism is a debilitating condition which may negatively affect quality of life, particularly in relation to nutritional and social health, speech, and poor facial appearance. Prosthetic options available range from conventional complete dentures to implant-supported overdentures (ISODs) and implant-supported full arch fixed partial dentures (ISFAFDPs). READ MORE

  2. 2. On tissue reactions to dentin as a bone substitute material

    Author : Payam Farzad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Grafted dentin; tissue reaction; bone blocks; dental implants; experimental study;

    Abstract : Background Reconstruction of the jaws due to resorption of the alveolar crest may require bone augmentation prior to installation of endosseous implants. Active research on new bone graft materials with bone regeneration ability equivalent to autogenous bone but without the limitations of allogenic, xenogenic and synthetic bone are constantly ongoing.

  3. 3. On various protocols for direct loading of implant-supported fixed prostheses

    Author : Pär-Olov Östman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : dental implants; immediate loading; clinical studies; radiography; implant stability; resonance frequency analysis;

    Abstract : Backgrund: Prosthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous patient with implant-supported bridges is today a routine and predictable treatment modality. The original protocol prescribed a healing period of 3 to 6 months prior to loading which means that the total treatment time can be extensive and that the patients often need to wear removable provisional prostheses during healing and treatment.

  4. 4. On the role of number of fixtures, surgical technique and timing of loading

    Author : Alf Eliasson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Computer numerical control; dental implants; fixed prostheses; non-submerged; CNC-milling;

    Abstract : Aims: The aims of this thesis were to analyze reduced number of implants supporting full arch fixed mandibular prostheses and fixed partial dentures (FPDs), non-submerged healing and early loading in the edentulous mandible. A further aim was to evaluate fit of Computer Numerical Control (CNC)-milled I-Bridge? frameworks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Healing of endosseous implants with different surface characteristics in grafted and non-grafted bone : clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Måns Jungner; Stefan Lundgren; Malou Hultcrantz; Carina Lundqvist; Peter Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dental implants; surface characteristics; bone graft; maxillary sinus; implant survival; oxidized surface; turned surface; sinus membrane elevation; bone formation; macrophages; osteocalcin; osteopontin; CD68; odontologi; Odontology;

    Abstract : Aims: This study uses radiological and clinical evaluations of the healing of endosseous titanium implants presented with different surface characteristics in the clinical situation (paper I-III) and experimentally to describe the early bone healing in maxillary sinus membrane elevation with and without the use of grafting material (paper IV).Material and methods: In paper I, 136 patients were treated with 394 dental implants – 199 were oxidized titanium implants (Nobel Biocare TiUnite) and 195 were turned titanium surface implants (Nobel Biocare Mark III).
