    Oral implant therapy is one of the most common methods for restoring defective and missing dentition. Peri-implantitis is a prevalent biological complication of implant therapy, characterized by inflammation of the peri-implant mucosa and subsequent progressive loss of supporting bone. The occurrence of peri-implantitis can impact the prognosis of implant restorations or even lead to implant failure, significantly affecting the patient's health and quality of life. Therefore, reducing the risk factors of peri-implantitis, timely diagnosis and effective treatments are of great importance to enhance the prognosis of implant therapy. This review describes the factors influencing the pathogenesis of peri-implantitis, the current diagnostic criteria, and therapeutic methods. Furthermore, it discusses emerging treatment modalities with potential clinical applications and reviews ongoing research progress.

    Complex and severe alveolar bone defect is an important factor affecting the esthetic and long-term stability of dental implants. Compared to conventional bone augmentation, digital and custom bone augmentation could reduce operation time and improve the accuracy of bone augmentation. Three-D printing individualized titanium mesh (3D-PITM) shows good biocompatibility and space-making capacity, which could accurately reconstruct the alveolar bone contour. Thus, 3D-PITM has been gradually applied in the bone augmentation surgery. This paper introduces the application and research progress of 3D-PITM used for complex bone augmentation.

    Autogenous bone has long been considered the "gold standard" for maxillary sinus floor elevation. However, secondary iatrogenic injury, limited source, easy resorption, and high risk of complications at donor sites limit its clinical application. Thus, the search for and selection of an ideal bone substitute for autologous bone becomes the development trend of bone augmentation technique. In this paper, the characteristics of three major bone substitutes including allograft, xenograft, and alloplastic graft, as well as the implant survival rate after the above bone substitutes were used on the maxillary sinus floor were summarized.

    The transalveolar technique for sinus floor elevation is a common surgical approach when there is insufficient vertical bone height in the maxillary posterior region for implant treatment. This article describes the evolution of this technique and the technical points of the clinical approach. It is very difficult to assess the intactness of the maxillary sinus mucoperiosteum in transalveolar technique when simultaneous bone augmentation is required. The use of electronic endoscope is a very helpful method to better confirm the preparation depth of the implant site and the status of the maxillary sinus mucoperiosteum, thus effectively avoiding complications of bone augmentation due to the maxillary sinus mucoperiosteum perforation. This article focuses on the clinical procedures and considerations in the use of transalveolar technique for sinus floor elevation to provide a reference for clinicians to improve the predictability of this technique.

    The emergence profile design of the implant prosthesis will not only affect the aesthetic effect of the prosthesis, but also affect the health of the tissues around the implant. Good emergence profile design helps to form a perfect soft tissue barrier, prevent microbial invasion, protect surrounding soft and hard tissues, and avoid aesthetic and biological complications. On the basis of understanding the biological characteristics of the tissue around the implant and based on the patient's soft and hard tissue conditions, designing a reasonable implant placement position to protect the health of the tissue around the implant is crucial to the success of the implant and also a necessary factor for the design of the emergence profile.

    The "3-dimensional osteogenesis model for maxillary sinus" (3D-OMMS) elucidated the osteogenic mechanism of maxillary sinus floor elevation. It provides a scientific theoretical basis for the treatment of maxillary sinus floor elevation in patients with missing maxillary posterior teeth. This manuscript reports the clinical application of "3D-OMMS" in the implants including single tooth or multiple teeth, immediate and delayed implants, transalveolar sinus floor elevation and lateral window approach sinus floor elevation, respectively. Preoperative and postoperative cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT)images were used to evaluate the osteogenic effect of the maxillary sinus region. In conclusion, the application of 3D-OMMS can form a three-dimensional space with diversified osteogenic directions in the maxillary sinus, shorten the vascularization osteogenesis path, accelerate the osteogenic process, improve the quality of new bone, and increase the success rate of implantation, which can be widely used in clinical practice.

    In the anterior mandibular aesthetic area, there is usually sufficient bone in the vertical direction and insufficient bone in the buccolingual and horizontal direction. In this paper, we present a case of a patient with multiple mandibular incisors to be extracted due to chronic periodontitis, in which the ridge splitting was applied to the anterior mandibular alveolar ridge with teeth extraction and immediate implant placement simultaneously. Teeth extraction, ridge splitting and implant placement were performed at the same time, and the second surgery was performed 6 months after the operation, and temporary restoration and permanent restoration were completed by digital technology 7 and 8 months after the first surgery.Teeth extraction and immediate implant placement with ridge splitting procedure allows the clinician to effectively augment the horizontal bone, improve implant success rate, reduce the number of operations and avoid a second operative area. The simultaneous application of ridge splitting technique with tooth extraction and implant placement with proper indications and operation details may have certain advantages over other implant options.

    Clinical analysis of extraction site preservation using Bio-Oss Collagen after extraction of maxillary molars
    Yu Jiuyue, Jia Wenhao, Fang Li, Wang Jian, Li Jiangming, Liu Han, Guo Qili
    Chinese Journal of Oral Implantology    2023, 28 (2): 90-96.   DOI: 10.12337/zgkqzzxzz.2023.04.004
    Abstract377)      PDF (1591KB)(465)       Save
    Objective To investigate a clinical treatment method for extraction site preservation using Bio-Oss Collagen after extraction of maxillary molars. Methods The clinical data of 6 cases were retrospectively analyzed, and all 6 patients were treated with Bio-Oss Collagen for extraction site preservation after extraction of maxillary molar teeth. These six cases met the following characteristics: the affected tooth was destructed in the alveolar bone in the area of its furcation due to periodontitis or combined periodontal-endodontic lesions, and needed to be extracted; the remaining bone height in the top central part of the alveolar ridge was less than 3.5 mm after the extraction of the affected tooth; the bone walls of the buccal, lingual, mesial and distal parts of the extraction socket were nearly intact. After extraction of the affected tooth, the granulation tissue in the alveolar socket was thoroughly removed. Bio-Oss Collagen was placed in the alveolar sockets and the soft tissues were cross-sutured to hold the graft in place. The sutures are removed 7-10 days after surgery. CBCT was taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively and at six months postoperatively. The vertical height of the remaining alveolar ridge was measured using Mimics 20.0 at five sites: buccal and lingual in the coronal position, mesial and distal in the median sagittal position, and central. Results Primary healing was obtained in all six patients. At 6 months after extraction, the patients had well healed alveolar sockets, normal gingival color and texture, and no change in attached gingival width. CBCT taken at 6 months after extraction showed no change or a small increase in alveolar crest height at the buccal, lingual, mesial and distal sites, but an increase of 3.48 to 7.89 mm at the central site, among the 5 sites measured. Conclusion After extraction of maxillary molars, Bio-Oss Collagen can be used for extraction site preservation if the surrounding bone wall height is adequate. This method causes less trauma, has a shorter operation time, and its results are similar to those of conventional extraction site preservation.

    Vertical bone augmentation is one of the greatest challenges of bone regeneration in implant dentistry. When the bone defect is large, it is often necessary to open a second operative area for autologous bone block grafting or to use titanium mesh or non-absorbable membrane in combination with autologous bone blocks or particulates. The incidence of complications is high and the surgical trauma is significant. In this case, the patient had a severe vertical bone defect in the posterior maxillary region. Bio-Oss Collagen combined with titanium tent poles and absorbable collagen membrane were used for vertical bone augmentation. The average bone height increased by 6.57 mm at 6 months after bone grafting, which met the need of implant implantation. The bone tissue around the implant was relatively stable during the follow-up after restoration. Due to the predictable effect of bone augmentation, the simpler operation procedure and the less invasive results, this operation can provide a reference for the clinical selection of vertical bone augmentation.

    Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is the most common bone augmentation procedure in implant dentistry, and the effect of bone augmentation is determined by the material properties of the biological barrier membranes. However, are current biological barrier membranes are insufficient for all clinical requirements, including excellent biocompatibility, high mechanical properties, controllable degradation behavior, superior bioactivity, and easy clinical management. It is required to develop and investigate a novel material for the biological barrier membrane. Biodegradable metals (BMs) refer to metals that are intended to degrade in vivo. Among them, zinc(Zn)-based BMs are regarded as a novel generation of biological barrier membrane materials due to their excellent material properties. Nevertheless, Zn-based biological barrier membranes have been still in the stage of research and development. Based on our previous research studies and considering the future clinical applications, this paper systematically reviewed the research status and drawbacks of Zn-based biological barrier membranes in terms of four aspects: biocompatibility, mechanical properties, biodegradability, and bioactivity, providing scientific evidence to promote its clinical transformation.

    Biological calcium phosphate-based bone substitutes have been widely used in the rehabilitation of bone defects in implant dentistry, due to their great biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. It has become an important optimizing strategy for bone regeneration materials through trace elements incorporation and controlled release to promote osteogenesis by regulating the regenerative microenvironment. In recent years, a series of studies have shown that fluorinated porcine bone substitute has good mechanical properties and the capacity of fluorine slow-release which could promote bone regeneration by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and regulating the immune microenvironment. Such an in vitro effect of fluorinated porcine bone substitute has been evidently proven in a variety of subsequent studies in vivo. This article summarized the research progress of the fluorinated porcine bone substitute so as to provide a reference for related basic research and clinical application.

    Peri-implant disease is a biological complication that occurs in the peri-implant tissue with plaque biofilm as the initiating factor. The initial colonization, homeostasis, and dysbiosis of peri-implant submucosal microbes are closely related to the healthy and diseased states of the peri-implant. This article reviews the research on the characterization of peri-implant microbes and their changes in the diseased states. The results showed that there are significant differences in the structure of submucosal microbes between states of healthy peri-implant, peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. The count of submucosal periodontal pathogens and the complexity of microbes increased when peri-implant disease occurred. The clinical manifestations of peri-implant disease were correlated with the variety in the type and quantity of microbes.

    Objective This paper investigates the optimal modification process of 3D printed nickel-titanium alloys by bioactive treatments such as sandblasting, acid etching, and dealloying. Methods The surface structure and properties of specimens were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and contact angle measurement. In this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were used to study the biocompatibility and osteogenic activity of different surfaces. Results The hydrophilicity of the dealloying surface was improved. EDS results showed that the surface nickel elementdecreased from 52.1wt% to 18.6wt%, which not only accelerated the differentiation and proliferation of cells on the surface, but also enhanced the adhesion ability of cells. Conclusion The dealloyed surface constructed a more abundant nanoscale mesh structure, which significantly promoted the osteogenic differentiation and functional expression of cells, which was of great importance for improving the osseointegration ability and long-term stability of implants.

    Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high-performance specialty plastic with good mechanical properties and biocompatibility and is easy to process and form, making it an alternative material for dental implants. However, the lack of biological activity and the easy accumulation of plaque limit the clinical application of PEEK in the field of oral implantology. At present, many scholars solve the problem of biological inertia and plaque attachment of PEEK through trace elements modification. Different trace elements have their own advantages. Strontium, tantalum, manganese, and other elements can promote osteoblast differentiation. Fluorine, silver, zinc, and other elements can inhibit the growth of inflammatory bacteria, and the co-modification of various trace elements gives PEEK implant more diversified properties.

    A case of implanting in the bilateral mandibular posterior area simultaneously with different prognosis was reported. Finally, the implant on the right side was loose and removed after six months, which was failed without osseointegration. Otherwise, a good osseointegration was formed on the left side, and the implant was loaded routinely. In the right mandibular posterior area, there were fibro-osseous lesions with unremarkable imaging findings, which were finally diagnosed by histopathology. Mandible fibro-osseous lesions mainly refer to a mixture of pathological changes of fibrosis and ossification in technology. The performance of such lesions is not obvious or present with similar symptoms and radiographic appearances, which lead to difficulties in diagnosis. In this article, the causes of failure in this case were analyzed. Furthermore, the features of ossifying fibroma and fibrous dysplasia in clinical manifestation, radiology, histopathology and so on were reviewed in this article, in order to provide a risk assessment and early warning of implants with fibro-osseous lesions for clinic.
