Alveolar ridge preservation in extraction sockets of periodontally compromised teeth: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
(2022-07)
Objectives:
Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) procedures can limit bone changes following tooth extraction. However, the role of ARP in periodontally compromised socket lacks strong scientific evidence. The aim of this ...
Airflow for initial nonsurgical treatment of peri-implantitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2021)
Background:
Nonsurgical treatment of peri-implantitis may help in reducing microbial load and inflammatory parameters. The potential clinical benefits of using different treatment approaches, in the initial nonsurgical ...
The socket shield technique for immediate implant placement: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2021)
Background:
Immediate implant placement with socket shield technique (SST) may maintain the buccal bone plate and soft tissue levels, however, the potential clinical benefits of SST lack strong scientific evidence. The ...
Influence of implant restorative emergence angle and contour on peri-implant marginal bone loss: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2023)
Background:
Implant restorative emergence angle and profile may have a negative impact on peri-implant marginal bone level and may increase the risk of developing peri-implantitis. However, the role of these prosthetic ...
