_Hello and welcome to the latest issue of Implants! I hope you find it both interesting
and informative.
This week Ive been catching up on the recently published Cochrane review on the
impact of loading times on the success rates of implants (Esposito M, Grusovin MG,
Maghaireh H, Worthington HV. Interventions for replacing missing teeth: different times
for loading dental implants. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2013, Issue 3. Art.
No.: CD003878. DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD003878.pub5). The researchers looked at a
number of Random Controlled Trials that looked at loading implants immediately, after
six weeks (early) and at three months (conventionally).

_Patient history
A 38 year-old non-smoking woman, in
good general health and with high aesthetic demands, presented at our dental
office with mobility of tooth #12 (Fig 1).
After clinical and radiological examination a horizontal fracture near CEJ (cement enamel junction) was detected
(Figs 1-4). Clinical examination showed
class III mobility of the crown of #12.
Aesthetic parameters were not altered.
The buccal bone plate was not affected
(Fig 2). The patients plaque control was
adequate and no periodontal disease or
periapical infection was detected (Fig 4).
_Treatment planning
It was not possible to prepare the
tooth for restoration with a single crown
due to the absence of ferrule. The short
length of the root would lead to an unsatisfactory crown-root ratio in case
of orthodontic extrusion, and crown
lengthening was not indicated in this
case because of aesthetic concerns. For
08 I implants

these reasons tooth #12 was considered hopeless. According to the options
proposed by the ITI group in terms of
implant placement timing after tooth
extraction, the present situation would
correspond to the Type I classification.
Though the lip line is high, a mediumthick biotype, the lack of infection and
a width of 1mm or more of the buccal
bone wall (as revealed by computerised
tomography) permits placing the implant
immediately after tooth extraction.
_Surgical procedure
A very accurate root extraction was
performed to keep the buccal plate intact (Fig 5). After verifying the integrity of the socket walls, the implant bed
was prepared without flap elevation
(Fig 6). We know that this approach
- leaving the periostium attached to
the bone - minimises the remodelling
of the alveolar ridge. A Straumann
Bone Level Implant with SLActive surface (Fig 7) was palatally positioned.
The filling of the vestibular gap was

_Conclusion

Patients nowadays demand less invasive surgery, the shortest healing time
possible and optimal aesthetic results.
Clinicians, on the other hand, are not
only looking to satisfy their patients
expectations, but also to obtain predictable long-term results. Both needs can
only be satisfied by performing accurate
planning followed by an adequate execution and by using implant designs and
biomaterials that minimise the remodel(Figs 18&19) and adapted to the mouth.

drills are not end-cutting, so they will

The combination of these two features
acts as a failsafe, which is especially neat
for the inexperienced. I found from my
mentees, that this was a big plus in their
minds.

This lady was presented with advanced periodontal disease affecting all
her remaining teeth and was looking for
a fixed solution. The first stage in the
treatment process was to remove all the
remaining teeth and provide conventional upper and lower full dentures. (Fig 12)
Following a healing period of approximately three months the patients existing dentures were relined and duplicated to form radiographic stents. This was
done using a mixture of 10-15 per cent
Barium Sulphate in the base acrylic and
radiopaque teeth (SR Vivo TAC and SR
Ortho TAC by Ivoclar Vivadent). The patient was then referred to have CT scans
of both jaws. (Fig 13)
The digital data obtained from the
scans was then used to plan the positions of the Camlog implants and sent
to a specialist laboratory for surgical

The patient had obvious on-going issues with her remaining teeth and was
referred to a colleague for a full examination. It was clear that all the remaining teeth needed to be extracted. This
was duly carried out and the patient
was constructed a set of transitional
full upper and lower dentures whilst her
mouth healed. This was a very positive
step forward for the patient however
she was still experiencing some difficulty retaining her new teeth, especially
the lower set.
After a lengthy discussion about her
options, she opted to proceed with implant supported over dentures. This traditionally constitutes a minimum of four
implants in the maxilla and two in the
mandible. This option would also allow
me to uncover the patients palate and

_Abstract
The aim of this case report is to demonstrate the concept of immediate functional
loading in the mandible using unsplinted
implants to support a locator attachmentsupported overdenture.
The patient was treated by placing four
tapered implants in the anterior mandible.
The implants were immediately loaded using individual unsplinted locators to support a removable overdenture. The patient
was followed for 24 months. To date, none
of the implants has lost osseointegration.
The radiographic bone levels remain stable. The patient has been able to maintain
healthy soft tissue around all individual
implants and indicated that she is comfortable and is able to function well with

_The single-tooth restoration has become one of the most widely used procedures
in implant dentistry.1 In the posterior region
of the oral cavity, bone volume and density
are often compromised. Occlusal forces are
greater in this region and, with or without
parafunctional habits, can easily compromise

Spongy bone deformation and stresses
(Table 2) seems to be the same in the two
cases. Simple and fast conclusion can be taken that using one wide implant is equivalent
to using two conventional implants. On the
other hand a very important conclusion can
be exerted that, under axial loading, about
10 per cent increase in implant side area can
overcome reduction of implant cross section
area by 50 per cent. In other words, effectiveness of increasing implant side area might
be five times higher than the increasing of
implant cross section area on spongy bone
stress level under axial loading. Starting from
Figure 7 a & b, slight differences can be noticed on spongy bone between the two models results. The stresses on the spongy bone
are less by about five per cent in the two
implants model than the one wide diameter
implant. The exceptions are the relatively increase in maximum compressive stresses and
deformations of order 12 per cent and 0.3 per
cent respectively.
The bone is known to respond the best to
compressive and the least to shear stresses22,
so considering the difference in compressive
stresses less significant, the two implants
were found to have a better effect on spongy
bone. Contrarily, Figures 8a & b, showed better performance with cortical bone in case of
using one wide implant over using two implants, that, deformations in cortical bone are
less by 20 per cent while the stresses are less
by about 40 per cent. The stresses and displacements were significantly higher in the
two implant model due to having two close
holes, which results in weak area in-between.

The three main stresses compressive, tensile, shear and the equivalent stresses in addition to the vertical deformity and the total

obtained as percentages using the wide implant as a reference. The spongy bone showed
about five per cent less stresses in the two

fabrication of a new cast, this further decreased the risk of inaccuracies during the
transfer process.
_Conclusion
The method described here can be used
for fullarch restorations with both fixed and
removable implant supported dentures. Accurate impressions can be accomplished
and occlusion, vertical dimensions, as well
as implant positions can be transferred
while facilitating the full-arch restoration
process. In addition, this technique resulted
in a reduction of the required chair time.
Disadvantages of this technique lie in the
fact that the quality of laboratory technicians work meets higher demands than
usual, and that the clinician also needs to
acquire some additional skills. Further disadvantages of this method include the
need for a highly qualified technical lab and
higher technical costs relative to those associated with prefabricated titan implant
abutments.
To date, this method has not been applied
in conjunction with immediate implant
loading. However, dentists and patients
have come to expect this level of rehabilitative accuracy, precision, long-term success
and aesthetics._

prior to recording their position by making an implant level impression with any
conventional impression material (Fig 4).
Upon the removal of the full arch impression, green impression posts were removed
from the implant wells and inserted into an
implant analogue of the same colour before inserting them into their corresponding acrylic sleeves within the impression.
Prior to the pouring of a stone model, a
resilient acrylic was applied around the impression posts to simulate a soft tissue contour in the stone model. The stone model
was used for the fabrication of a wax bite
rim to record the occlusal registrations. After
articulation of the models, appropriate abutments with the largest practical hemispherical base were selected and inserted into their
corresponding implant analogues within the
stone model. Their prosthetic posts were then
milled parallel to one another (Fig 5).

formatting requirements
_Please note that all the textual elements of
your submission:
_the complete article,
_all the figure captions,
_the complete literature list, and
_the contact info (bio, mailing address,
E-mail address, etc.)
must be combined into one Word document.
Please do not submit multiple files for each
of these items.
In addition, images (tables, charts, photographs, etc.) must not be embedded into the
Word document. All images must be submitted separately, and details about how to do
this appear below.
Text length
Article lengths can vary greatlyfrom a
mere 1,500 to 5,500 wordsdepending on
the subject matter. Our approach is that if
you need more or less words to do the topic
justice then please make the article as long or
as short as necessary.
We can run an extra long article in multiple
parts, but this is usually discussing a subject
matter where each part can stand alone
because it contains so much information.
In addition, we do run multi-part series on
various topics.
In short, we do not want to limit you in terms
of article length, so please use the word
count above as a general guideline and if
you have specific questions, please do not
hesitate to contact us.
Image requirements
Please number images consecutively
throughout the article by using a new
number for each image. If it is imperative
that certain images are grouped together,
then use lowercase letters to designate the
images in a group (ie 2a, 2b, 2c).
Please put figure references in your article
wherever they are appropriate, whether that
is in the middle or end of a sentence. If you
are not directly mentioning the figure in the
body of your article, when it appears at the
end of the sentence the figure reference
should be enclosed within parenthesis and
be inside the sentence, meaning before the
fullstop.
In addition, please note:
Larger images are always better, and something on the order of 1 MB is best. Thus, if
you have an image in a large size, do not
bother sizing it down to meet our require-
Text formatting
Abstracts
An abstract of your article is not required. However, if you choose to provide us with one, we will print it in a
separate box.
Contact info
At the end of every article is a Contact Info
box with contact information along with
a head shot of the author. Please note at
the end of your article the exact information you would like to appear in this box
and format it according to the previously
mentioned standards. A short bio may
precede the contact info if you provide
us with the necessary information (60
words or less).
