Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare hereditary abnormality of which the outstanding characteristics are hypodontia, hypohidrosis and hypotricosis. Patient afflicted with this malformation shows a typical face resembling that of congenital-syphilis. Dental abnormality (delayed eruption, oligodontia) becomes apparent in this child and causes the parents to bring him to the dentist. Prosthetic appliances are usually indicated and he must be adjusted or be remade as the child matures.

As the dental arch is the curve connecting the cusp tip of tooth, the dental arch form, composing of the occlusion, is one the important factors of occlusal reconstruction. Many studies about the horizontal dental arch form have been reported, but until now, it is unclear to infer the position of the teeth in dental arch form, to evaluate the effect of the horizontal dental arch form on chewing movement. The purpose of this study is to make objective criteria to infer the position of the teeth in dental arch. In this study, 100 subjects with individdual normal occlusion were evaluated. By multiple regression analysis on the basis of the relation of the canine and the first molar, the positions of teeth in dental arch were inferred. According to buccolingual relationship of maxillary to mandibular posterior teeth, the dental arch forms were classified into five groups, i, e. the normal group, the group which the maxillary second molar positions buccal side, the group which the maxillary premolars position buccal side, the group which the maxillary premolar position lingual side. From the results, objective criterial to infer the positons of the first premolar, the second premolar, the second molar in dental arch were made.

Objectives: In this study, we determined the incidence and pattern of screw loosening in patients who received dental implants. Materials and Methods: Patients who received implants between January 2008 and October 2013 and completed their prosthetic rehabilitation were evaluated for the incidence, frequency, and onset of screw loosening using dental charts and radiographs. The association between each factor and screw loosening was analyzed using the chi-square test and a multivariate analysis with binary logistic regression models (P<0.05). Results: Total 1,928 implants were placed in 837 patients (448 males, 389 females), whose follow-up period after loading varied from 0.25 to 70 months (mean period, 31.5 months). Screw loosening occurred in 7.2% of implants. Most cases occurred less than six months after loading. Among those, 22.3% experienced recurrent screw loosening. Screw loosening was most common in the molar region (8.5%) and frequently associated with an implant diameter of ≥5 mm (14.2%). External implant-abutment connections (8.9%) and screw-retained implant prostheses (10.1%) showed higher incidence of problems than internal implant-abutment connections and cement-retained implants, respectively. Screw loosening was most common in implant prostheses with single crowns (14.0%). Conclusion: Within the limits of the current study, we conclude that the incidence of screw loosening differs significantly according to the position of implant placement, the type of implant and manufacturer, implant diameter, the type of implant-abutment connection, the type of retention in the implant prosthesis, and the type of implant prosthesis.

Objectives: Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. These patients lose their teeth at a young age and are in need of prosthetic rehabilitation. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the success of dental implant placement in these patients. Materials and Methods: An electronic search was performed in PubMed Central, Scopus, and Web of Science using the keyword "Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome" AND "dental implant" OR "prosthodontics". Articles reporting implant placement in patients with PLS until July 2019 were included. Results: Assessment of the included 11 articles reporting 15 cases showed 136 implant placements in these patients. Implant failure occurred in 3 patients (20 implants). The peri-implantitis and failure rate was higher in the maxilla. Meta-analysis showed the probability of failure to be 7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0%-31%) for maxillary implants and 2% (95% CI 0%-9%) for mandibular implants. The follow-up time ranged between 1 and 20 years. Healing after bone graft and implant placement in these patients was uneventful. Conclusion: Dental implants may be a viable treatment option for PLS patients. Implantation can help preserve alveolar bone if the patients' immunological and growing conditions are well-considered and proper oral hygiene and compliance with the maintenance program are continued.

Endosseous implants have restored normal function and dental health to many patients. When implants were introduced as an effective treatment modality, their efficacy was limited by the amount of available bone. Today, various grafting procedures can surgically create bone width and volume. Implants can be placed in more ideal locations for successful prosthetic reconstruction. The use of autogenous bone grafts represents the "gold standard" for bone augmentation procedures. Either intraoral or extraoral sites may be considered for donor sites. Alveolar ridge augmentation using autogenous bone block, can be done during implant placement or staged with implant placement, after bone graft healing. In the staged technique, a better implant positioning and the use of wide diameter implants are possible. Alveolar ridge augmentation using autogenous block graft is a predictable way of treatment, for the atrophic alveolar ridge before implant placement. The cases presented in this article clinically demonstrate the efficacy of using a autogenous block graft in generating effective new bone fill for dental implant placement.

Prosthetic-driven implant placement is a concept considering the dental implant restoration first based on the final form of that prosthesis to be restored. The latest development of the imaging technology and digital dentistry was able to be obtained the high quality images of CBCT with low radiation exposure and it has also enabled the process to reconstruct the intraoral state in three dimensions due to the development of the intraoral, model and impression scanner. Computer-guided implant placement simulations and template production was able to be more widely used in this context. In this narrative review, the features and the types of implant surgical guides will be introduced. It will also be described the diagnosis and treatment plan using computerguided implant software to reduce the number of visit and to increase the accuracy of the implant surgery through the top-down approach based on the shape and location of the final prosthesis.

Osseointegrated dental implants have now become and accepted form of treatment for patients with a fully or partially missing dentition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of AVANA implant-Korea. A total of 323 AVANA implants were placed at 9 centers in the edentulous and partially edentulous jaws of 88 consecutive patients ranging in age form 18 to 79 years. So we get the clinical results. 1. Both patients (94.4%) & doctors (94%) were satisfied with the results, in patient's aspect 'most satisfaction' case were more common(52%) 2. The length of fixture which was frequently used was 13mm (168/319,44.5%) followed by 15mm and 10mm, and 3.75mm width implant (239/319,74.9%) was the most popularly used. 3. Mandibutar posterior was the most common installation site (140/317.43%) 4. A mean implant survival rate was 96.2%. That showed little difference which reported other paper. Cause of failure consisted of inflammation $ infection-36%, fall of osseointegration-18%, paln during masticatory function-9%. improper prosthetic function $ procedure-9%. 5. The most popularly used types of abutment was the UCLA abutment(168/305,55.5%)

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of autogenous fresh demineralized tooth (auto-FDT) graft prepared at the chairside for alveolar bone grafting during dental implant surgery. Methods: In total, 38 patients requiring both tooth extraction (for endodontic or periodontal reasons or third molar extraction) and alveolar bone regeneration for dental implant placement were included. Within 2 h after clean extraction, the teeth were prepared at the chairside to serve as bone graft material. In the same sitting, blocks or chips of this graft material were used to reconstruct defects at the osteotomy site simultaneously with or before implant placement. Twelve months after prosthesis fabrication and placement, the clinical findings and implant success rates were evaluated. Histological studies were randomly conducted for selected cases. Results: Clinical evaluation showed favorable wound healing with minimal complications and good bone support for the implants. No implant was lost after 12 months of function following prosthetic rehabilitation. Histological examination revealed new bone formation induced by the graft material. Conclusions: Chairside preparation of autogenous fresh demineralized teeth after extraction can be a useful alternative to the use of autogenous bone or other graft materials for the immediate reconstruction of alveolar bone defects to facilitate subsequent implant placement.
