TLDR
Implant divergence appears to affect negatively impression accuracy when using internal connection implants, and proper preload may decrease the incidence of such a complication.Abstract:
The objectives of the review were (1) to evaluate the accuracy of implant-level impressions in cases with internal and external connection abutments/reconstructions, and (2) to evaluate the incidence of technical complications of internal and external connection metal- or zirconia-based abutments and single-implant reconstructions.read more

Clinical Performance of Screw- Versus Cement-Retained Fixed Implant-Supported Reconstructions— A Systematic Review
TL;DR: Although no statistical difference was found between cement- and screw-retained reconstructed reconstructions for survival or failure rates, screw- retained reconstructions exhibited fewer technical and biologic complications overall.

Zirconia in biomedical applications
TL;DR: The use of zirconia in medicine and dentistry has rapidly expanded over the past decade, driven by its advantageous physical, biological, esthetic, and corrosion properties, with a focus on dental applications.

Comparison of peri-implant and periodontal marginal soft tissues in health and disease
Saso Ivanovski,Ryan Lee +1 more
TL;DR: The transmucosal component of the restored implant shares some common features with teeth, namely the presence of a junctional epithelium and a connective tissue component, but there are some important differences that make implants more susceptible to disease initiation and progression.

Clinical risk factors related to failures with zirconia-based restorations: An up to 9-year retrospective study
TL;DR: It is confirmed that chipping is the first cause of zirconia-based restorations (ZBR) failure and practitioners can reduce chipping failures by taking into account several risk parameters, such as the presence of a ceramic restoration as an antagonist, the existence of parafunctional activity and the presenceof implants as support.

The influence of implant-abutment connection to peri-implant bone loss: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: It can be concluded that crestal bone levels are better maintained in the short-medium term when internal kinds of interface are adopted, and conical connections seem to be more advantageous, showing lower peri-implant bone loss.

The long-term efficacy of currently used dental implants: a review and proposed criteria of success.
TL;DR: Criteria for the evaluation of dental implant success are proposed and an attempt has been made to standardize the basis for comments on each type of implant.

Long-term follow-up study of osseointegrated implants in the treatment of totally edentulous jaws.
TL;DR: The long-term outcome of prostheses and fixtures (implants) in 759 totally edentulous jaws of 700 patients concur with multicenter and earlier results for the osseointegration method.

TL;DR: It can be concluded that after an observation period of 5 years, high survival rates for implants and implant-supported SCs can be expected, however, biological and particularly technical complications are frequent.
