21. Peri-implantitis and periodontitis. Experimental and clinical studies
Abstract : Peri-implantitis is an increasing problem in implant dentistry. The current series of studies employed a translational approach with the aim to compare peri-implantitis and periodontitis lesions and evaluate the influence of implant surface characteristics and the adjunctive use of systemic antibiotics/local antiseptics on healing following surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.

22. Characterising Dental Implant Surfaces by Topographical, Electrochemical, and Biomechanical Methods
Abstract : Replacement of extracted teeth by dental implants was first introduced in the 1950’s. From the beginning, threaded titanium implants with smooth surfaces were used. Later on, screw shaped implants with micro-scaled roughened surfaces were introduced showing bone ingrowth and improved in vivo and in vitro results and good long term stability. READ MORE

23. On the mortality of patients treated with dental implants: Association to age, degree of tooth loss, and treatment modality
Abstract : Rehabilitation of partially or completely edentulous patients with implant-supported prostheses is a common treatment in dentistry. Clinical studies evaluating this type of treatment have largely focused on technical and biolog-ical complications. READ MORE

24. The peri-implant tissues from an esthetic perspective
Abstract : The overall objective of the thesis was to evaluate the dimensions and position of peri-implant soft tissues in relation to the topography and alterations of the bone support, and the tissues’ significance for an esthetic appreciation of implant therapy. A comparative evaluation of crown and soft tissue dimensions between implant-supported single-tooth replacements and the contra-lateral natural tooth was made in Study I. READ MORE

25. Radiographic follow-up analysis of Br?nemark? dental implants
Abstract : Radiography plays an important role in clinical routine practice and in research projects evaluating dental implants, among them Br?nemark? System. Presence of a peri-implant radiolucency has been used in studies as a criterion for implant failure without knowledge of its diagnostic accuracy. READ MORE
