An assessment of implant coverage in dental benefit plans.
In the last 30 years, dental implantology has undergone widespread advances in technology and now complex, high-risk procedures are routine. Patients are becoming more vocal in their requests for this service from dentists in private practice and academic institutions. Unfortunately, although treatment modalities have improved, the cost for this service remains beyond the reach of the average patient. The purpose of this article is to assess the present status of implant coverage in dental benefit plans in the US.

Anterior guidance: group function/canine guidance. A literature review.
Anterior guidance, which can be categorized as group function or canine guidance, is essential for esthetics, phonetics, and mastication. This article reviews the historical development and philosophies of both occlusal schemes. There is no scientific evidence that supports one occlusal scheme over the other. Where anterior guidance must be reestablished or where it changes, there currently appear to be more authorities who favor canine guidance over group function.
