Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Dental Etching
Preparation of TOOTH surfaces, and of materials bonded to teeth or DENTAL IMPLANTS, with agents and methods which roughen the surface to facilitate adhesion. Agents include phosphoric or other acids (ACID ETCHING, DENTAL) and methods include LASERS.
Immediate Dental Implant Loading
Endosseous dental implantation where implants are fitted with an abutment or where an implant with a transmucosal coronal portion is used immediately (within 1 week) after the initial extraction. Conventionally, the implantation is performed in two stages with more than two months in between the stages.
Peri-implantitis
An inflammatory process with loss of supporting bone in the tissues surrounding functioning DENTAL IMPLANTS.
Osseointegration
The growth action of bone tissue, as it assimilates surgically implanted devices or prostheses to be used as either replacement parts (e.g., hip) or as anchors (e.g., endosseous dental implants).
Dental Care For Children
The giving of attention to the special dental needs of children, including the prevention of tooth diseases and instruction in dental hygiene and dental health. The dental care may include the services provided by dental specialists.
Clinical Trials
This study will evaluate the placement of implants with minimal invasive techniques. Immediately after the placement of the implants, functional loaded synthetic teeth will be placed.
Healing Profile of Titanium Dental Implants Placed in Patients With Diabetes
The main goal of this study is to look at the way gums heal around dental implants placed in healthy patients compared to patients with type 2 diabetes. This study is designed to answer th...
Study on Immediate Loading of Immediately Placed Single Implants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate survival and success rates of dental implants placed with immediate loading protocol in extraction sockets. All patients were monitored for 1 year...
Clinical Evaluation of the Mandibular Mini-Implant Overdenture
Stabilization of existing full lower dentures by means of mini-dental implants (MDI). To test whether 4 mini-implants placed at the front of the lower jaw can stabilize an immediately-modi...

Mass retraction movement of the anterior upper teeth using orthodontic mini-implants as anchorage.
BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated the application of mini-implants in the orthodontic treatment as anchorage during the retraction movement of the anterior teeth. PURPOSE: This study was d...
Dental implant therapy has become successful with improved surgical and prosthodontic techniques. However, most clinical trials, even though well controlled, are limited in longevity. There are few cl...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the survival and success of screw- versus cement-retained implant crowns over a 5-year period. This was a multi-center prospective cohort study, consisting of...
Pedicle Screw Placement With O-arm and Stealth Navigation.
Various navigation systems are available to aid pedicle screw placement. The O-arm replaces the need for fluoroscopy and generates a 3-dimensional volumetric dataset that can be viewed as transverse,...
