Chairside Parallelization of Implant Stumps, Assessment of a New Prosthetic-Implant Method

Abstract

Modern implantology is increasingly focusing on two factors that show a very good medium-long term survival of the implants: the switching platform and the conometric connection. They either influenced the increase in implant survival: the first reducing the loss of crestal bone, the second resulting in a drastic loss of bacterial infiltration in the abutment-implant connection interface. The purpose of our clinical case is to illustrate a new prosthetic method on a consolidated plant engineering method that allows us to combine the advantages of the conometric connection and the switching platform with the possibility of parallelizing the "chairside" with the added MUAs. This technique has demonstrated the possibility of overcoming the obstacle of the inclination; moreover, it has added a simplification of the prosthetic procedures and a reduction of the operating times.

Preparation of a novel antibacterial magnesium carbonate coating on a titanium surface and its in vitro biocompatibility

“…In earlier studies, successful preparation of coatings containing magnesium on titanium (Ti) surfaces was achieved using techniques like sandblasting and electrophoretic deposition (EPD). 55,56 In comparison to these methods, the hydrothermal reaction used in this study requires neither specialized equipment nor complex procedures. Moreover, in this reaction system, only Mg(NO 3 ) 2 and urea were used and reacted as following:(NH 2 ) 2 CO + H 2 O → 2NH 3 + CO 2 , 2NH 3 + H 2 O → 2NH 4+ + OH − CO 2 + H 2 O → CO 3 2− + 2H − , Mg 2+ + CO 3 2− → MgCO 3 …”
