Application of a new Tent-Peg technique in the reconstruction of severe alveolar bone defects Wang Mohan, Hu Yinghan, Wu Jing, Zou Duohong Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (5): 459-466.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.10.011 Abstract （308）      PDF （1768KB）（299）       Knowledge map    Save Adequate bone volume is crucial for the successful placement and long-term stability of dental implants. Therefore, the reconstruction of severe alveolar bone defects hold significant clinical importance. With the development of guided bone regeneration (GBR) techniques, various GBR approaches have been applied in clinical practice to address alveolar bone defects. Based on the concept of "stability-centered" alveolar bone reconstruction, we developed a series of Tent-Peg medical products and established a new Tent-Peg technique. This technique enables the reconstruction of severe alveolar bone defects without the need for autologous bone, providing a novel solution for both the functional and aesthetic reconstruction of such defects. This innovative method has been successfully validated in clinical practice, and its appeal lies in its "three lows" (low technical sensitivity, low failure rate, and low cost) and "three easies" (easy to operate, promote, and popularize). To enhance clinicians' understanding of this innovative technique, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of the Tent-Peg medical product series and highlights the advantages of the new Tent-Peg technique, supported by clinical case demonstrations. This overview aims to promote the standardized application of this technique in clinical practice. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics

A case of digitally assisted immediate implant placement through impacted teeth in the aesthetic area Zhao Ning, Li Xiaojie, Kou Ni, Ma Guowu Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (3): 266-271.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.06.012 Abstract （267）      PDF （2405KB）（372）       Knowledge map    Save This paper presents a case of digitally assisted immediate implantation through impacted teeth in the aesthetic area. The patient had a root fracture caused by an upper anterior teeth trauma. One impacted canine and two impacted supernumerary teeth were found in the bone on the root side of the affected teeth. During treatment, under the guidance of the digital surgical guide plate and assistance by Er : YAG laser, immediate implantation through the impacted teeth was achieved. At the same time, autologous bone grafting material and platelet-rich fibrin were mixed for bone grafting at the two implant sites. Provisional and permanent restorations were completed with digital technology at 5 months and 8 months after the first stage of surgery, respectively. Postoperative CBCT showed that the implants penetrated through the crown, apical cementum, dentin, and pulp of the impacted teeth. No pain or other complications were found during the follow-up visit. There were no clinical symptoms at the 18-month follow-up visit. CBCT images showed that the bone density around the implants had increased and the lamina dura had formed. In this case, immediate implantation through the impacted teeth in the aesthetic area was realized with the digital assistance, providing a new clinical idea for the selection of treatment options for impacted teeth and increased clinical data for other healing forms of implants besides osseointegration. However, the clinical effect of this kind of operation still needs long-term follow-up observation. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics

Methods A total of 36 patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. One implant was placed in the maxillary anterior region, and simultaneous guided bone regeneration (GBR) surgery was performed. Participants were divided into 3 groups based on different bioabsorbable collagen membrane fixation protocols. Group 1: fixation with titanium pins; Group 2: fixation with absorbable sutures; Group 3: fixation with titanium pins and absorbable sutures. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed immediately after surgery (T1) and at six months post-surgery (T2), respectively. The horizontal bone width of the augmented region was analyzed at the implant shoulder (H 0) and 2, 4, 6 mm apical to the implant shoulder (H 2, H 4, H 6). Changes in labial bone width during bone healing were calculated as absolute values (mm) and relative values (%). The incidence of postoperative complications was recorded. Results After six months of bone healing, all groups showed significant bone loss at H 0-H 6 compared to immediate post-surgery results ( P<0.05). At H 2, horizontal bone loss in Group 1 was significantly less than in Group 2 ( P<0.05). Group 3 exhibited significantly less horizontal bone loss compared to Group 1 at H 0 ( P<0.05), and Group 3 showed significantly less bone loss than Group 2 at H 0-H 4 ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of hematoma, wound bleeding, wound dehiscence, or infection among the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion When implant placement with simultaneous horizontal ridge augmentation was performed in the maxillary anterior region, membrane fixation with titanium pins demonstrated superior results of the augmented region near the implant shoulder compared to fixation with absorbable sutures. However, the combined use of pins and absorbable sutures contributed to achieving better bone augmentation results compared to using either method alone. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics

A systematic literature review on the implant survival rate for congenitally missing teeth Zhao Yu, Zan Bingxin, Dai Qinggang Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (3): 242-251.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.06.009 Abstract （217）      PDF （1424KB）（295）       Knowledge map    Save Objective To review the relevant literature from the last decade reporting on the outcomes of congenitally edentulous patients after implant prosthetic restoration, and to synthesize the implant survival rates from different perspectives to provide information for clinical decision-making. Methods A search using the combination ("hypodontia" OR "oligodontia" OR "anodontia" OR "tooth agenesis" OR "congenitally missing teeth") AND "dental implant*" was used in databases such as PubMed, with a time frame from February 2014 to February 2024. The literature was screened according to the established inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the bibliographies of the selected research articles were manually searched. Results A total of 34 prospective/retrospective studies and some case reports on implant restorations in congenitally edentulous patients were finally included. It was found that the overall implant survival rate in these patients was high, with an average of 96.53%, depending on individual patient factors and treatment techniques. Congenital edentulism was categorized into simple congenital edentulism and syndromic congenital edentulism, with survival rates of 97.32% and 95.54%, respectively, based on the relationship with systemic diseases. There were slight differences in implant survival rates between different age groups, with 93.82% for patients aged 17 years and younger, and 96.83% for adult patients aged 18 years and older. The maxillary lateral incisors, with a high rate of congenital defects involving the anterior esthetic zone, had an ideal implant survival rate (98.48%). The implant survival rate for congenitally edentulous patients combined with bone augmentation techniques was 96.19%. The survival rates for zygomatic implants and small-diameter implants (or mini-implants) were 98.18% and 97.18%, respectively. Conclusion Implant surgery is a better solution to restoring oral function in congenitally edentulous patients. However, it still needs to be analyzed according to the patient's situation to improve the implant survival rates and the success of implant restoration. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics

Research progress on the influence of depression on peri-implant health Zhao Xintong, Meng Weiyan Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (4): 342-346.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.08.008 Abstract （207）      PDF （1376KB）（328）       Knowledge map    Save In recent years, implant-supported prostheses have become an important method for repairing missing teeth. However, the long-term survival rate of implants is affected by various systemic and local factors. Depression is a common mental disease with a high prevalence rate, which affects the healing process of soft and hard tissues after implant surgery. Moreover, depression often leads to oral dysbiosis, which can easily promote the occurrence and development of peri-implantitis and affect the long-term efficacy of implants. Antidepressants, such as SSRIs, also affect osseointegration. This article aims to review the effects of depression on the healing process of soft and hard tissues, bone metabolism, and oral microbiome after implantation, hoping to provide a clinical basis for the risk assessment and treatment strategy of implant treatment for patients with depression.

Clinical evaluation of collagen sponge for augmenting keratinized gingiva around dental implants Zhong Zhitong, Huang Min, Wang Jing, Shen Qinyuan, Wu Runfa Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (5): 474-479.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.10.013 Abstract （207）      PDF （1849KB）（196）       Knowledge map    Save Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of collagen sponge in augmenting keratinized gingiva around dental implants. Methods Fourteen patients with 16 surgical sites were randomly assigned to either the collagen sponge group or the free gingival graft group for keratinized gingiva augmentation. The width of keratinized tissue (WKT), soft tissue thickness (ST), color difference, and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores were measured at baseline, immediately after surgery, and at 6 weeks and 12 weeks postoperatively. Results At 12 weeks, the WKT was (5.81±0.75) mm and (3.50±0.53) mm ( P<0.001), and the change in soft tissue thickness was (0.83±0.44) mm and (0.04±0.07) mm ( P<0.05) in the free gingival graft and collagen sponge groups, respectively. The color difference values were 130.86±53.99 and 34.13±31.77 ( P<0.05), the VAS pain scores was 5.13±1.25 and 1.88±1.13 ( P<0.001), and the operative time was (38.17±4.56) min and (21.17±3.72) min ( P<0.01), respectively, showing statistically significant differences. Conclusion Collagen sponge can be used for peri-implant keratinized gingiva augmentation. Compared with free gingival grafts, collagen sponges provide better aesthetic results, reduce operation time, and avoid the additional trauma associated with donor site harvesting.

Methods This study reviewed patients with dental defects who underwent horizontal tenting technique in the maxillary posterior region using bone blocks harvested from the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus at the Stomatology Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from November 2018 to March 2023. The width of the alveolar ridge in the grafted area was compared using cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) images taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and 6 months postoperatively. Patients were also followed up clinically. Results There was a statistically significant increase in bone width at 0mm and 3mm from the top of the alveolar ridge in the immediate postoperative period compared to the preoperative period ( P<0.05). 6 months postoperatively, the increase in horizontal bone width at the top of the alveolar ridge was (3.60±2.29) mm compared to preoperative measurements ( P>0.05). The increase in horizontal bone width at 3 mm from the top of the alveolar ridge was (2.85±1.54) mm compared to preoperative measurements, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). And compared to the immediate postoperative period, the bone augmentation at different distances from the top of the alveolar ridge remained basically stable 6 months postoperatively, with no significant bone resorption observed ( P>0.05). Conclusion Bone blocks harvested from the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus show effective bone augmentation and favorable clinical outcomes when used in the horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation using the tenting technique. It provides a new surgical method for cases with insufficient alveolar ridge width in the maxillary posterior region, especially when combined with severe bone height deficiency requiring lateral window technique for sinus floor elevation.

Research on mechanical properties of 3D printed titanium mesh with hyperbolic paraboloid morphology and traditional approximate alveolar ridge morphology Wang Huaisheng, Wang Xinyu, Han Zekui, Jiang Tingting, Chen He, Liu Lu Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (3): 258-265.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.06.011 Abstract （203）      PDF （5280KB）（224）       Knowledge map    Save Objective To investigate the influence of hyperbolic paraboloid spatial structure on the mechanical properties of personalized titanium mesh. Methods Virtual bone augmentations were performed using 3-Matic 15 software on 3D models of the mandibles of patients with alveolar ridge resorption. The bone augmentations were performed with hyperbolic paraboloid structure and approximate alveolar ridge structure, respectively. Personalized titanium meshes with pore shapes of circular, triangular, quadrilateral, and hexagonal, and thicknesses of 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, and 0.4 mm were fabricated. Finite element analysis models were constructed, applying the forces and constraints. The stress and displacement of titanium mesh in each group were analyzed. Results Under the same thickness, the stresses and displacements of the hyperbolic paraboloid titanium mesh with different pore structures were significantly lower than those of the approximate alveolar ridge titanium mesh; as the thickness decreased, the stress and displacement of titanium mesh in each group significantly increased. Conclusion This spatial structure of hyperbolic paraboloid can distribute the stress uniformly, reduce the stress concentration of the personalized titanium mesh, decrease displacement of the titanium mesh after loading, allowing the titanium mesh to combine good mechanical properties and thinner thickness, reducing irritation to soft tissues and the risk of titanium mesh exposure.

Animal experiment of prognosis of immediate implant placement and restoration in individuals with T2DM Zhao Guoqiang, Song Yingliang Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (4): 311-319.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.08.004 Abstract （200）      PDF （1831KB）（202）       Knowledge map    Save Objective To investigate the feasibility and prognosis of immediate implant placement and immediate restoration in patients with type 2 diabetes by establishing an animal model. Methods The type 2 diabetic animal model was established using New Zealand rabbits as the experimental group and healthy New Zealand rabbits as the control group. Both groups underwent immediate implantation and immediate repair. Micro-CT scanning, hard tissue section, and detection of relative inflammatory factors by real-time quantitative PCR were used to compare prognosis and histological remodeling between the two groups. Results The success rate for immediate implant placement and immediate restoration was 90% in both groups. In the early postoperative period (1~2 months), the peri-implant bone of the experimental rabbits in the T2DM group was significantly different from the control group in various microscopic parameters, in the meantime, the expressions of IL-6, IL-33 and TNF-α were significantly higher than those of the control group. Conclusion Animal experiments have shown that the immediate implant placement and immediate prosthesis are safe in type 2 diabetic animal models. However, attention should be paid to the slow formation of osseointegration and obvious inflammation of the soft tissue around the implant in the early stage. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics

Implant restoration of extended edentulous spaces in the aesthetic zone using autogenous-heterogeneous bone grafting GBR with titanium mesh combined with keratinized tissue augmentation: a case report Jiang Juanna, Li Junman, Chen Lin, Xie Liangkun Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2024, 29 (3): 272-276.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2024.06.013 Abstract （197）      PDF （1770KB）（225）       Knowledge map    Save This case report describes the implant restoration of extended edentulous spaces in the aesthetic zone using an autogenous-heterogeneous bone mixture as the bone grafting material for guided bone regeneration (GBR) with titanium mesh, combined with keratinized tissue augmentation. The patient presented with a traumatic fracture of the anterior maxilla, horizontal alveolar bone loss, and loss of multiple consecutive teeth. Autogenous bone was mixed with deproteinized bovine bone mineral heterograft and implanted in the area of bone loss. Titanium mesh and a bioresorbable barrier membrane were placed labially. After six months, implants were placed under the guidance of a simple prosthetic guide. Keratinized tissue augmentation was performed before second-stage surgery. The final esthetic restoration was completed after 6 months of wearing the provisional denture. The treatment outcomes demonstrated that the use of an autogenous-heterogeneous bone mixture as grafting material for guided bone regeneration with titanium mesh resulted in ideal bone augmentation, providing an optimal site for implant placement. The keratinized tissue augmentation procedure provided satisfactory clinical outcomes for the final aesthetic restoration. Therefore, we concluded that using an autogenous-heterogeneous bone mixture as grafting material for guided bone regeneration with titanium mesh is an effective method for increasing horizontal alveolar bone volume in the anterior region.

Methods A retrospective review of cases from August 2010 to February 2023 at the Department of Dentistry, Peking University Shenzhen Hospital, and U-dental Clinic in Shenzhen, where patients with single-tooth vertical bone defects were treated using the autogenous bone ring technique with simultaneous implant placement. Second-stage surgeries were performed 6 months postoperatively for final restorations. Complications, bone augmentation outcomes, implant failures, and postoperative bone resorption were assessed through clinical and radiographic evaluations. Results 167 teeth were treated with the bone ring technique. 2 implants failed before restoration, and 4 bone rings failed during the healing period. No further implant failures were observed after restoration. Of the 36 patients with complete CBCT data, the average vertical bone gain was (4.52±0.81) mm. Average vertical bone resorption was (0.25±0.11) mm at 6 months post-surgery and (0.52±0.23) mm at 1 year after final restoration. Conclusion The bone ring technique, when applied to cases with sufficient basal bone and vertical bone defects, is an effective method for achieving vertical bone augmentation with simultaneous implant placement. It demonstrates a high implant success rate and low complication rate. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics
