Statement of problem No consensus has been reached on which retention system, cement-
or screw-retained, is best to avoid bone loss around the implant of a fixed implant-supported …

Objective To review the influences and clinical implications of micro-gap and micro-motion
of implant-abutment interface on marginal bone loss around the neck of implant. Design …

Objective The aim of this study was to test five types of implant restorations using titanium,
zirconia and lithium disilicate abutments after being subjected to long‐term fatigue loading …

Statement of problem The whitish color of zirconia (ZrO 2) abutments offers favorable
esthetics compared with the grayish color of titanium (Ti) abutments. Nonetheless, ZrO 2 has …

The use of 3D technologies is progressing in the dental field. However, little is known about
the biomechanical behavior of the additive manufacturing of full-arch fixed dental prostheses …

Purpose: The objective of this study was to review all biomechanical investigations that have
evaluated the implications of implant framework misit with ixed prostheses. Materials and …

PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between microleakage and screw
loosening at different types of implant-abutment connections and/or geometries measuring …

Statement of problem The mechanical behavior of the conical connection implant with
different torque levels requires evaluation. Purpose The purpose of this finite element …

The stability and integrity of the abutment-implant connection, by means of a screw, is fallible
from the moment the prosthetic elements are joined and is dependent on the applied …

Statement of problem Screws can loosen through mechanisms that have not been clearly
established. Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of the …
