Bone Disorders

Bone Disorders

Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Teeth

Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Modern oral implants show significantly lower rates of peri-implantitis and failure than older designs. Studies indicate less than 5% combined frequency of peri-implantitis and implant failure over 10 years with proper protocols.

Background:

Recent literature reports high peri-implantitis rates for machined implants.
A consensus meeting convened to assess the validity of these figures for modern implants.

Purpose of the Study:

To present consensus meeting outcomes.
To evaluate long-term clinical studies on modern implant peri-implant infection frequency.

Main Methods:

A literature search identified ten studies.
Included were three modern implant brands with moderately rough surfaces.
Studies featured 10-year or longer follow-up periods.

Main Results:

Bleeding on probing and probing depths are unreliable indicators of crestal bone loss (CBL).
CBL results from multiple factors beyond infection, including implant, clinician, and patient variables.
Modern oral implants demonstrate superior performance compared to older devices, with a 2.7% average frequency of peri-implant infection and significant bone loss over 7-16 years.

Conclusions:

The combined frequency of peri-implantitis and implant failure is typically under 5% over a decade for modern implants.
Established protocols are crucial for achieving favorable long-term outcomes with modern dental implants.
