Dental Applications of Bioglass® Implants

“…Figure 1 summarizes the percentage of dense hydroxyapatite implants lost as a function of time for various reported trials. as discussed by Stanley et al (15). Figure 2 summarizes the percent of dehiscence (gradual exposure of the implant) also as a function of time.…”

“…1) and only 2.8% had developed dehiscence (Fig. The results of Stanley et al (15) are excellent over time in part because Bioglass® cone implants were placed deep and dentures not made and inserted until after 4 months.

“…The cones were placed at least 1 mm below the alveolar crest. (15) fall between these two extremes. In contrast to Denissen & deGroot's favorable results, at the end of one year 55% of the cones were lost: 32 (51.6%) maxillary cones and 23 (60.5%) mandibular cones (Fig.…”

“…Several researchers have found that implants, which act as space fillers after extraction of tooth roots, do delay résorption of residual alveolar ridges (15).

“…Various synthetic products have been tried; acrylic resin hydroxyapatite, coralline hydroxyapatite, carbon, calcium phosphate ceramics, tricalcium phosphate, and Bioglass·, as reviewed by Stanley et al, 1991 (15). Of these, dense hydroxyapatite (HA) and Bioglass® cones offer the greatest potential.…”
