Immediate loading in the maxilla using flapless surgery, implants placed in predetermined positions, and prefabricated provisional restorations: a retrospective 3-year clinical study.

BACKGROUND: Immediate loading of dental implants shortens the treatment time and makes it possible to give the patient an esthetic appearance during the whole treatment period. PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to evaluate an immediate-loading treatment protocol, which included flapless surgery, implants placed in predetermined positions and connected to prefabricated provisional restorations, and the 3-year clinical results. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 97 Brånemark System Mk IV implants (Nobel Biocare AB, Gothenburg, Sweden) with a machined surface were inserted in the maxillas of 46 patients. A presurgical three-dimensional model of the patients' soft tissue and underlying alveolar bone anatomy was created, which allowed the clinician to place the implants in predetermined positions and connect them to prefabricated provisional restorations. A surgical template with drilling guides corresponding to each implant was used. The apical part of the master guide was equipped with a circular "mucotome," which punched out a 5 mm hole in the mucosa to eliminate the need for flap elevation. The patients received 25 fixed partial prostheses and 27 single-tooth restorations. Bone quality and quantity were assessed. Radiographic examinations were performed on the day of surgery/loading and at the 1-, 2-, and 3-year follow-up visits. RESULTS: All implant sites showed intact buccal and lingual bone walls during surgery, confirming the accuracy of the bone-mapping procedure. The prefabricated temporary restorations fitted, meaning that the implants were positioned clinically in the same way as on the cast. Nine implants in eight patients failed during the first 8 weeks of loading. This resulted in a cumulative survival rate of 91% after 3 years of prosthetic load. The survival rate of splinted implants was 94%. The number of failed implants was significantly higher in cases of single-tooth replacements and placement in soft bone sites and smokers. The failed implants were successfully replaced according to a two-stage protocol. All patients finally received the expected restoration. The marginal bone resorption was on average 1.0 mm during the first year of loading, 0.4 mm during the second year, and 0.1 mm during the third year. CONCLUSIONS: The study confirmed the feasibility of an immediate-loading treatment protocol in the maxilla, which included flapless surgery, implants and abutments placed in predetermined positions, and prefabricated provisional restorations. All failures occurred within the first 2 months of loading. The unchanged survival rate and the low average bone loss found during the following 34-month study period indicate a good long-term prognosis for the performed immediate-loading treatment.

Effect of temporary cements on the bond strength of ceramic luted to dentin.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of either eugenol-containing or eugenol-free temporary cement removal by excavator or sandblasting on the shear bond strength of ceramic luted to dentin. METHODS: A self-etching primer system, Panavia F 2.0, Kuraray Medical (PF2), and a total-etch bonding system, Excite/Variolink II, Vivadent (EXV), were used. One hundred and forty human molars, ground to expose dentin surfaces, were divided into 14 groups (seven groups for each adhesive system). For each adhesive system, either a eugenol-containing (Temp bond) or a eugenol-free (Temp bond NE) temporary cement was applied to the dentin surface for 7 days, then removed by an excavator or sandblasting (four groups). Three control groups were studied where fresh dentin was either scratched by excavator or sandblasted, or underwent no surface treatment. After application of the adhesives, ceramic cones (Cerafil inserts) were adhesively luted to standardized dentin areas. After 24 h storage in distilled water, the shear bond strengths were determined at a cross-head speed of 0.75 mm/min. RESULTS: For each adhesive system, neither the method of temporary cement removal nor the type of temporary cement affected the bond strength significantly (P<or=0.05). EXV showed statistically higher bond strengths (26.6-31.6 MPa) than PF2 (8.6-12.9 MPa) within all groups. SIGNIFICANCE: The use of temporary cements, either containing eugenol or not, does not alter the retentive strength of ceramic restorations luted to dentin using the tested adhesive systems, whether the temporary cements are removed by excavator or sandblasting.

Leachability of plasticizer and residual monomer from commercial temporary restorative resins.

OBJECTIVES: This study was performed to determine the compositions of commercial temporary restorative resins and to evaluate the leachability of plasticizer and residual monomer from them. METHODS: The chemicals in four commercial temporary restorative resins (Dura Seal, Fit Seal, Plast Seal Quick, and Poly Seal) were detected by GCMS and HPLC. The amounts of plasticizers and residual monomers that leached from cured resin samples immersed in ethanol for 1 h to 14 d were determined by HPLC. RESULTS: Phthalate esters used as plasticizers contained 40-55 wt% either di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) or butyl phthalyl butyl glycolate. The resin monomer included methyl methacrylate (MMA) or a mixture of MMA and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA); 1,3-butanediol dimethacrylate was added as a cross-linking agent. Each resin contained 40-60 wt% monomer. The amounts of phthalate esters leached increased with immersion time up to 7 d, reaching 120-190 microg/mg, and did not change subsequently. The residual monomers leached gradually for up to 3d and did not change subsequently. The amount of leached residual monomer (MMA, HEMA) was 20-90 microg/mg after 3d storage. More than 50% of the leachable plasticizers and monomers were eluted from the cured resins within 24 and 3 h, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The amounts of leached plasticizers and residual monomers were extremely large compared with the concentrations of endocrine disrupters and their potentially genotoxic effects. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the leachability of these compounds from temporary restorative resins.

Temporization for endodontics.

Teeth undergoing root-canal therapy are susceptible to microbial contamination from oral fluids both during and after treatment. With the exception of single-visit treatment, the use of a temporary restoration is mandatory. This review aims to provide an overview of the materials and techniques used for short- and long-term restorations during and immediately after endodontic treatment, and to make clinical recommendations. Further research is necessary to determine the effectiveness of temporary restorations in the conditions of the oral environment, especially with respect to leakage and functional demands.

Simplifying single-stage solid abutments: Part 2. Temporization.

Fabrication of a temporary crown can consume much chairside time when restoring a single-unit implant. A technique for rapid fabrication of a temporary crown for the ITI implant system is addressed so as to minimize time and provide an accurate-fitting esthetic interim crown.

[The status of dog dental pulp after preparation for metalloceramic crowns using temporary fixative cement containing calcium hydroxide].

Morphologic investigation of the condition of the pulp of teeth in 15 dogs in the use of different kinds of temporary fixing cements after preparation for meta-ceramic crowns. It was determined microscopically that the use of the temporary fixing cement Provicol considerably diminishes inflammatory changes in the pulp of the prepared teeth and it assists the much quicker restoration of its normal histophysiology (normalization of oxidation-reduction processes, cellular elements of the pulp and especially the layer of the odontoblasts, their participation in formation of the replacing dentin).

Stress relaxation of interim restoratives.

Stress relaxation of four temporary restoratives was studied. In the vicinity of ambient mouth temperature, the relaxation characteristics of an unmodified zinc oxide-eugenol cement were more favorable than those of IRM and Cavit. The plastic behavior of gutta-percha temporary stopping precluded assessment of its relaxation at temperatures in excess of 22 degrees C.

Advanced alveolar crest atrophy: an alternative treatment technique for maxilla and mandible.

A concept of oral implantology for the treatment of advanced crest atrophy is presented: The lateral insertion technique with disk-design implants is less invasive than bone grafting. An implant case demonstrates the simultaneous surgery of an edentulous maxilla and a mandible. Implant loading zones in the anterior and posterior areas of the arch are created with disk-design implants. Their support is tricortical or multicortical. Seven to eight days after surgery, the implants are immediately loaded with fixed esthetic temporaries. After another 40 days, the definitive restorations on the implants can be fabricated. The procedure is safe and shortens chairtime.

Effect of fluoride varnish on the retentive strength of provisional crowns luted with various temporary cements.

The retention of temporary crowns was studied with the use of a fluoride varnish (Duraphat) combined with various temporary cements. The mixture of Duraphat varnish and cement improved retention, with the exception of Opotow cement. Applying Duraphat varnish to the tooth surface before cementation enhanced the retentive strength of Tempbond, weakened the retention of Freegenol, but had no effect on Opotow cement. A "transfer effect" was observed, inasmuch as the Duraphat varnish encouraged adherence of the cement to the tooth structure rather than to the temporary crown.
