The present overview of available literature intends to highlight and explore the biological characteristics of zirconia for applications in dental implantology. However, research is urgently required to fill in gaps over time for clinical assessments of all zirconia implants, consequently, the ...
Gingival recessions as well as reductions of the mucosa around pontics, dental implants or the reduced width of the keratinized gingiva may have a significant impact not only on the patient’s smile, but also on the long-term prognosis of teeth and implants. ...

Novel Titanium alloys such as Ti-Zr and Ti-20Nb-10Zr-5Ta, Zr61Ti2Cu25Al12, innovative production methods for non metallic materials as well as ceramic composites will be considered as possible promising candidates for future dental implants. 展开 ...
conditions often require medical interventions that involve the use of biomaterials, such as joint replacements, cardiovascular stents, and dental implants. According to the World Health Organization, the global population aged 60 years and above is expected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050, up from 1 ...
Based on population projections, the number of teeth at risk for dental disease in 1980 was 2.8 billion for those over the age of 65, and is expected to increase to 5 billion teeth at risk by 2020 ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Bridges:“dental bridges” are fixed prosthetic devices used in dentistry to replace missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth anchored between adjacent natural teeth or dental implants, restoring both function and aesthetics; Dentures:“dentures” are removable dental prostheses used to replace mul...
Ceramics, alternatively, are non-metallic and non-organic, their compressive strength is amongst the greatest, but they demonstrate poor tensile properties. The most typical use of ceramics is in dental implants. Polymers are organic materials which consist of repeated units. Their benefits include th...
dental implants. Near-infrared (NIR) light possesses deep tissue-penetration ability and minimal adsorption of the blood and water molecules in organisms, thus, it is considered to be an ideal external-field force for antibacterial therapy in dental implants [113]. Through the use of the ...
