Journal ArticleDOI

Fixture design and overload influence marginal bone loss and fixture success in the Brånemark system.

TL;DR: Excessive marginal bone loss (more than 1 mm) after the first year of loading and/or fixture loss correlated well with the presence of overload due to a lack of anterior contact, the absence of parafunctional activity and osseointegrated full fixed prostheses in both jaws.
Journal ArticleDOI

An in vivo Study of the Influence of the Surface Roughness of Implants on the Microbiology of Supra- and Subgingival Plaque

TL;DR: In nine patients with fixed prostheses supported by endosseous titanium implants, 2 titanium abutments (trans-mucosal part of the implant) were replaced by either an unused standard abutment or a roughened titanium abUTment, justifying the search for optimal surface smoothness for all intra-oral and intra-sulcular hard surfaces for reduction of bacterial colonization and of periodontal pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mandibular two implant-supported overdentures as the first choice standard of care for edentulous patients - The york consensus statement

TL;DR: A consensus statement on the efficacy of implant-supported mandibular overdentures in the edentulous mandible and how this should inform discussions with providers of national healthcare and with independent funders is presented.
Journal Article

The McGill consensus statement on overdentures.

TL;DR: On May 24-25, 2002, a symposium was held at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, during which scientists and expert clinicians presented 75 papers on the efficacy of overdentures for the treatment of edentulous patients.
