“…Furthermore, it has been discussed in the literature that soft tissue seal formation around an implant neck is critical to provide a barrier against bacterial penetration toward the bone [ 17 ]. Despite high survival rates, failures of dental implants are expected to increase, as an estimated 500,000 dental implants are placed every year in the USA alone [ 18 , 19 ]. Many factors can influence the survival of an implant, including implant loading procedures, microbial biofilm formation, corrosion, systemic health, and host immune–inflammatory responses [ 20 , 21 , 22 ].…”

In the present work, dicationic imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) were investigated as multi-functional coatings on a zirconia (ZrO2) surface to prevent biofilm formation and enhance the wear performance of zirconia while maintaining the material’s compatibility with host cells. ILs containing phenylalanine and methionine were synthesized and deposited on zirconia. Intermolecular interactions driving IL deposition on zirconia were studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Anti-biofilm activity and cell compatibility were evaluated in vitro after one and seven days, and wear performance was tested using a pin-on-disk apparatus. ILs were observed to form strong hydrogen bonds with zirconia. IL containing phenylalanine formed a stable film on the surface after one and seven days in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and artificial saliva and showed excellent anti-biofilm properties against Streptococcus salivarius and Streptococcus sanguinis. Compatibility with gingival fibroblasts and pre-osteoblasts was maintained, and conditions for growth and differentiation were preserved. A significantly lower coefficient of friction and wear volume loss were observed for IL-coated surfaces as compared to non-coated substrates. Overall, zirconia is an emerging alternative to titanium in dental implants systems, and this study provides additional evidence of the materials’ behavior and IL coatings as a potential surface treatment technology for improvement of its properties.

“…(12) The guide was stabilized and fixed in its place with anchor pins to prevent micro movement that can affect the implant placement position. (13,14) Bar attachment was the choice in this study because the implants splinted with bar allow better distribution of the force and less prosthetic maintenance in comparison to anon-splinted implants. (15) The results of the present study revealed that; there was a gradual increase in the maximum biting force in patients rehabilitated by implant overdentures in the two studied groups throughout study period.…”

Background: Implant retained overdenture is a first treatment choice with high rate of success to improve oral function, esthetics, enhance masticatory performance and patient ' s satisfaction. Bite force is one indicator of the functional state of the masticatory system that results from action of jaw elevator muscles modified by Cranio-mandibular biomechanics. Objective:The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of increase implant number from two to four implants on maximum bite force.Material and methods: sixteen patients with upper and lower edentulous ridge participated in this study. Patients were rehabilitated with two or four implant retained overdentures. Patients were divided according to the available bone in to two groups. Group (A): patients had received two implants retained overdentures.Group (B): patients had received four implants retained overdentures. Implants were inserted in mandibular canine area bilaterally in group (A) and in mandibular canine and first premolar area bilaterally in group (B). After three months, bar was attached to the implants. The lower overdenture was picked up intraoral and occlusal adjustment was done by using Tscan device. The biting force was evaluated by using Loadstar sensor device which was placed in the premolar molar area in right and left side. Patients were instructed to bite on the top of the sensor and the biting force values were displayed on a computer connected to the device.Results: the biting force of both groups increased gradually in the follow up period and group (B) had shown statistically significant higher bite force value than group (A). Conclusion:The maximum biting force of patients with two and four implants retained overdentures had been increased and there were a significant difference as four implants was higher than two implants.

“…The use of titanium in these sectors is mostly due to its very high success rate, and minimal failures but also very good results achieved over the years. Looking at its use in oral implantology, it should be noted that this material began to be used for medical devices in 1952 when Professor Branemark carried out the first research into its compatibility with the human body [ 2 ]. Today, six types of titanium are used in this field to make medical devices.…”

Disruptive Technologies for Learning and Further Investigation of the Potential Toxicity Produced by Titanium in the Human Body during the COVID-19 Pandemic Period

Titanium is considered to be a biocompatible material and is used to a great extent in the pharmaceutical and oral implantology fields. While initially, specialists considered that its use does not cause adverse effects on the human body, as time has gone by, it has become clear that its use can lead to the development of certain diseases. The objective of this study was to identify the way in which digital technologies have the capacity to facilitate information regarding the potential long-term harm caused by titanium device toxicity during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, a regression model was developed to identify how a series of independent variables have the ability to influence the dependent variable (respondents’ perceptions of how new web technologies have the ability to help future physicians to facilitate information absorption with regard to potential titanium toxicity). The results illustrated that new technologies have the potential to support both the learning process on this topic and the innovation activity by discovering new solutions that will gradually lead to the reduction of the side effects of titanium used in the pharmaceutical and oral implantology fields.
