  2. 1. On titanium release from dental implants and the inflammatory response

    Author : Mattias Pettersson; Margareta Molin Thorén; Anders Johansson; Ann Wennerberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; titanium; inflammation; dental implants; peri-implantitis; odontologi; Odontology;

    Abstract : In dentistry, dental implants have become a standard treatment for single tooth loss and partial and total edentulism since their introduction by P-I Brånemark in the 1960s. Long-term follow-up studies have shown that dental implantation is a predictable treatment, with an overall implant survival over ninety-five percent. READ MORE

  4. 2. Late complications after total hip arthroplasty

    Author : Erik B Mathiesen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present study concerns late complications after total hip arthroplasty in relation to implant material, design, and mode of implant fixation. Frictional characteristics in retrieved and new acetabular sockets was studied under dry and lubricated conditions comparing conventional polyethylene sockets with polyacetal sockets from the Christiansen prosthesis.

  5. 3. On New Implants - The results of five prospective, randomized RSA trials with aspects on phased introduction and continuous migration

    Author : Mats Molt; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; New total knee arthroplasty; TKA; RSA; randomized; prospective; prediction; continuously migrating; safety; stability CR; PS; PF; PA; short stem; tourniquet;

    Abstract : A concern that arises with any change in design or operative technique is whether it affects the long-term implant stability or not. One way to address this is, by measuring early micromotion, to predict the future revision rate. READ MORE

  6. 4. Prevalence, extent and severity of peri-implantitis

    Author : Christer Fransson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Peri-implantitis is a disorder that affects the tissues surrounding a functional implant. Peri-implantitis can lead to implant loss and impaired function. There is limited information regarding the prevalence of peri-implantitis. In addition the extent of the disease and pattern of bone loss are poorly described. READ MORE

  7. 5. A clinical study of uncemented hip arthroplasty : radiological findings of host-bone reaction to the stem

    Author : Henrik Bodén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Arthroplasty; bone remodelling; DEXA; fixation; geometrical design; hydroxyapatite; osteoarthritis; scintigraphy; stem size; stress-shielding; tapered; titanium; uncemented; weight-bearing.;

    Abstract : In total hip arthroplasty (THA), the main reason for failure leading to revision is aseptic loosening. Both mechanical and biological effects act in the loosening process, the factors may be implant design, fixation mode or technique, as well as biological factors unique to the individual. READ MORE
