Peri-implantitis prevention starts with the choice of a clean implant
Drs Dirk U. Duddeck & Dana Adyani-Fard, Germany
Two years ago, in implants 4/2022, we raised an important question: how clean must sterile-packaged implants be to meet the high expectations of dental professionals who entrust these medical devices to their patients? At that time, extensive quality assessments conducted by the CleanImplant Foundation revealed troubling impurities on the surfaces of new, sterile-packaged implants, identified through independent laboratory testing. It was reasonable to expect that the manufacturers involved would address these issues promptly and ensure that their medical devices meet the highest standards of cleanliness. Regrettably, even after two years, we cannot give the “all-clear”. Here’s an update to where things stand now...

Late implant placement following bilateral sinus floor elevation
Prof. Dr Paolo Maturo & Dr Edoardo Magnanelli, Italy
Partial tooth loss in the posterior region can lead to significant functional deficits and, particularly in young patients, may also result in aesthetic concerns. If left untreated, the loss of vertical dimension and subsequent tooth migration can lead to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Additionally, untreated partial malocclusion in the posterior region is a primary cause of maxillary sinus pneumatisation and vertical bone loss...

Full maxillary rehabilitation with immediate implant placement of NEVO RC INICELL® implants in Type 3 bone
Dr Mathieu Rousset, France
The emergence of fully digital workflows in implant dentistry has revolutionised the way clinicians approach complex rehabilitative cases. Achieving high primary stability in low-quality bone, such as Type 3 or 4 bone (Lekholm & Zarb 1985), has traditionally posed significant challenges. However, advancements in implant design, surgical techniques, and digital imaging have enabled the successful placement and immediate loading of implants even in these challenging scenarios. The following case report presents a comprehensive approach to full maxillary rehabilitation using immediate implant placement in Type 3 bone, leveraging modern digital tools and the innovative and gentle NEVO implant design to achieve healthy and satisfying clinical outcomes...

Immediate two-piece ceramic implants with immediate provisionalisation in the posterior region
Drs Alexandre Marques Paes da Silva, Alice Maria de Oliveira Silva, Lissya Tomaz da Costa Gonçalves, Rodrigo Franco Motta, Daniel Moraes Telles, Mayla Kezy Silva Teixeira & Eduardo Veras Lourenço, Brazil
The present case report aims to describe the clinical and radiographic performance of ceramic implants placed in the posterior regions of two patients who visited the private SobreImplantes clinical study centre in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. CBCT was used to carry out surgical planning, and periapical radiographs were used in the immediate postoperative period and in the follow-up consultations. The implants were placed into fresh sockets (immediate) and immediately provisionalised...
