Background: Since the first description of osseointegration in 1977, oral rehabilitation with dental implants has become a successful possibility. Changes on the surface of implants have shown promising results in their ability to promote biological effects that influence cell adhesion and growth. In addition, alterations on the surface of the abutments, appears to bring the additional be…
To date, there is no gold standard treatment for periimplantitis. Then, the establishment of an effective therapeutic protocol for decontamination and re-osseointegration is needed. The aim of this study is to characterize the microbiological, inflammatory, clinical and radiographic profile of induced periimplantitis in minipigs, and evaluate the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic thera…
At the present time, special attention is given to the factors that may interfere in buccal bone plate preservation, considering its high fragility. Among these, there are the immediate implants and the improvement on the surgical techniques for their placement, and the modifications on the interface implant-abutment. Thus the present study will investigate immediate implants placed with …
The treatment of aggressive periodontitis (AgP) represents a challenge for clinicians, because there are no standardized protocols for efficient control of the disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple applications of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment (nsPT) in patients diagnosed with AgP. Thirty patien…

To date, there is no gold standard treatment for periimplantitis. Then, the establishment of an effective therapeutic protocol for decontamination and re-osseointegration is needed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) associated with L-PRF in decontamination and re-osseointegration of periimplant defects. The mandibular premolars o…
The placement of implants allows for re-establishment of function and esthetics following tooth loss. Immediate implant placement is a relatively recent procedure and has advantages, such as reduced number of surgical procedures, preservation of alveolar bone, reduction of cost and period of edentulism, and increased patient acceptance. However, there are some specific contraindications f…
The ideal treatment for peri-implantitis should promote health around implants, regenerating the lost tissues and leading to the re-osseointegration. Many studies were conducted, but no study showed significant results in obtaining bone re-osseointegration. The present study will compare the computerized microtomographic and the histomorphometric methods in the re-osseointegration analysi…
