Arcsys System, a stable, reversible and easy-to-use prosthectic connection
Over the years, different types of connections between prosthetic components and dental implants that may be osseointegrated have been developed and studied¹, however, the use of screws is still the most common method for fixing prostheses over implants. The reversibility of screwed systems is often acclaimed; however, the loosening or fracturing of the fixation screws […]
Smart overdenture on frictional implants
77 -year-old male patient Chief complaint: The patient reports a tumor lesion on the floor of the mouth due to poor fit of complete prosthesis. Initial evaluation After doing a detailed anamnesis of the case and clinical examination, a tumor lesion was found in the region of the inferior right alveolar ridge, the result of […]
Peri-implant esthetics longevity
Implantology counts on tools that are capable of extraordinary esthetic results. In the past, implantology as a science had demonstrated the capacity for the methodic reproduction of osteointegration. However, under the light of contemporary knowledge, there is a search for the predictability of the peri-implant tissue marginal stability (absence of recesses and presence of papilla), […]
Guided bone regeneration in aesthetic area
Authors: Dr. Thiago Roberto Gemeli, Ahylyn Restrepo Marin and Ana Karolyny Weber 14-YEAR-OLD FEMALE PATIENT Chief complaint: Patient uncomfortable with the aspect of her smile. Dental anomalies are deviations from normality, usually associated with the embryonic development of teeth, which may result in changes in number and shape. Agenesis is a type of anomaly associated […]
Bacterial sealing in the frictional connection of the Arcsys Implant System
Authors: Eng. M.Sc. William de Souza Wiggers e DDS M.Sc Rafael Cury Cecato The emergence of implantology at the beginning of the 20th century, with Payne and Greenfield, the forerunners of the specialty, presented solutions such as gold and porcelain. Payne described the implant of a cylindrical gold basket, placed after enlarging the diameter of […]
