Carga inmediata de implantes extra cortos en sectores posteriores. Estudios retrospective con tres modelos de carga: 24, 48 hs y 7 días / Immediate loading of extra short implants in posterior sectors. Retrospective study with three loading models: 24 hs, 48 hs and 7 days

Los implantes extra-cortos son cada vez más utili-zados en la práctica clínica diaria. La utilización de estos implantes con carga inmediata supone un reto añadido. Clásicamente se ha postulado que la carga inmediata debe realizarse después de 24 horas de la cirugía. En la siguiente serie de casos analizamos diferentes tiempos a la hora de realizar la carga in-mediata y su posible repercusión. Fueron recolec-tados de forma retrospectiva datos sobre casos de implantes extra-cortos (5,5 y 6,5 mm) en los que fue realizada una carga inmediata en sectores poste-riores. El implante fue la unidad de análisis para la estadística descriptiva en cuanto a la localización, dimensiones del implante, y mediciones radiográ-ficas. El paciente fue la unidad de medida para el análisis de la edad, sexo y la historia clínica. La prin-cipal variable estudiada fue la supervivencia de los implantes extra-cortos con carga inmediata en tres períodos de tiempo determinados: 24 hs, 48 hs y 7 días y como variables secundarias se han estudiado, la estabilidad del hueso crestal en general y en los tres períodos de carga anteriormente mencionados, las complicaciones protésicas y la supervivencia de las prótesis. Fueron reclutados 74 pacientes en los que se insertaron 146 implantes que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Todos los implantes fueron cargados mediante carga inmediata en tres perío-dos determinados de tiempo: 24 hs (40 implantes), 48 hs (42 implantes) y 7 días (42 implantes). Todos los implantes fueron ferulizados a otros implantes ge-nerándose puentes de dos o más unidades, con di-ferente longitud. En el grupo de implantes con carga inmediata en 24 hs la media de la pérdida ósea distal de todos los implantes fue de 0,21 mm (+/-0,84) y la media de la pérdida ósea mesial en este grupo fue de 0,33 mm (+/- 0,53). En el grupo de carga inmediata en 48 hs, la media de la pérdida ósea distal de todos los implantes fue de 0,20 mm (+/- 0,82) y la media de la pérdida ósea mesial fue de 0,22 mm (+/- 0,81). En el grupo de carga de 7 días, la pérdida ósea me-sial del grupo fue de 0,28 mm (+/- 0,51) y la media de la pérdida ósea distal fue de 0,17 mm (+/- 0,81). Cuando comparamos las medias de pérdida ósea me-sial y distal entre los tres grupos, no se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas (mesial p=0,062, distal p=0,067). En conclusión, no se obser-varon diferencias significativas en la pérdida ósea crestal ni en la supervivencia de los implantes cortos entre los 3 tiempos estudiados de aplicación de car-ga inmediata. Por ello, utilizar cualquiera de los tres protocolos puede ser adecuado, mientras se realice un correcto análisis de la situación clínica de cada paciente (AU)

Extra-short implants are increasingly used in daily clinical practice. The use of these implants with immediate loading poses an added challenge. Classically it has been postulated that immediate loading should be performed 24 hrs after surgery. In the following case series, we analyze different times of immediate loading and their possible repercussions. We retrospectively collected data on cases of extra-short implants (5.5 and 6.5 mm) in which immediate loading was performed in posterior sectors. The implant was the unit of analysis for descriptive statistics in terms of location, implant dimensions, and radiographic measurements. The patient was the unit of measurement for the analysis of age, sex and medical history. The main variable studied was the survival of immediately loaded extra-short implants in three specific time periods: 24 hrs, 48 hrs and 7 days. Secondary variables studied were crestal bone stability in general and in the three loading periods mentioned above, prosthetic complications and prosthesis survival. Seventy-four patients were recruited and 146 implants that met the inclusion criteria were inserted. All implants were loaded by immediate loading in three specific time periods: 24 hrs (40 implants), 48 hrs (42 implants) and 7 days (42 implants). All implants were splinted to other implants generating bridges of two or more units, with different lengths. In the 24-hr immediate loading group the mean distal bone loss of all implants was 0.21 mm (+/- 0.84) and the mean mesial bone loss in this group was 0.33 mm (+/- 0.53). In the 48-hr immediate loading group, the mean distal bone loss for all implants was 0.20 mm (+/- 0.82) and the mean mesial bone loss was 0,22 mm (+/- 0,81). In the 7-day loading group, the mesial bone loss of the group was 0.28 mm (+/- 0.51) and the mean distal bone loss was 0.17 mm (+/- 0.81). When we compared the mean mesial and distal bone loss between the three groups there were no statistically significant differences (mesial p=0.062, distal p=0.067). In conclusion, no significant differences were observed in crestal bone loss or in the survival of short implants between the 3 immediate load application times studied. Therefore, using any of the three protocols can be appropriate, as long as a correct analysis of the clinical situation of each patient is performed (AU)

Confección de prótesis de carga inmediata mediante barras articuladas: componentes, modo de uso y longitud de la barra en función de la localización / Fabrication of immediately loaded prostheses using articulated bars: components, method of use and bar length depending on the location

En la implantología actual, la confección de prótesis de carga inmediata se ha convertido en un procedi-miento de rutina. Contar con elementos pre-formados con un correcto ajuste al implante o transepitelial so-bre el que se trabaja, minimiza el tiempo de trabajo sin renunciar a la eficiencia. En el presente trabajo se muestran elementos preformados articulados para la realización de prótesis de carga inmediata y su forma de uso, así como un análisis biomecánico de las estructuras para conocer su repercusión en las distintas fuerzas recibidas durante la masticación. Resultados: Al aplicar la carga en la zona central de la barra (paralela a los implantes), la tensión máxima recibida en la zona correspondiente al extremo de la barra sufre variaciones importantes, desde 128 Mpa en la longitud de 13 mm hasta un máximo de 391 Mpa (megapascales) en la longitud de 5 mm, siendo la ten-sión máxima, media para todas las medidas, de 242 Mpa (+/-96,76). En el ensayo de las diferentes medi-das de la barra se observa también una tensión cre-ciente para longitudes de barra a partir de 7 mm, al aplicar la tensión en la zona media de la estructura, por lo que longitudes entre 5 y 7 mm pueden consi-derarse prácticamente con la misma distribución de tensiones hacia los extremos y en la zona de unión. En conclusión, las barras articuladas son un elemento de confección de prótesis provisionales de carga in-mediata de gran utilidad, que pueden confeccionarse de forma rápida y generan un comportamiento bio-mecánico predecible (AU)

In current implantology, the fabrication of immediately loaded prostheses has become a routine procedure. Being able to have pre-formed elements with a correct fit to the implant or transepithelial on which we are working minimizes working time without sacrificing efficiency. Material and methods: We show articulated preformed elements for immediate loading prostheses and how they are used, as well as a biomechanical analysis of the structures to determine their repercussion on the different forces received during mastication. Results: When the load is applied in the central area of the bar (parallel to the implants) the maximum stress received in the area corresponding to the end of the bar undergoes significant variations, from 128 Mpa in the 13 mm length to a maximum of 391 Mpa in the 5 mm length, the average maximum stress for all the measurements being 242 Mpa (+/-96.76). In the test of the different bar sizes we can also observe an increasing stress for bar lengths from 7 mm onwards when applying the stress in the middle zone of the structure, so that lengths between 5 and 7 mm can be considered to have practically the same stress distribution towards the ends and in the joint zone. Conclusions: Hinged bars are a very useful fabrication element for immediately loaded provisional prostheses, which can be fabricated quickly and generate a predictable biomechanical behavior (AU)

Implante transalveolar inmediato ante reabsorción dentinaria interna / Immediate transalveolar implant as an effective solution for internal tooth resorption

Introducción: Dentro del marco de su actividad profesional el estomatólogo se enfrenta a diversas afecciones como la reabsorción radicular interna, cuyos casos avanzados pueden complicar el pronóstico del tratamiento endodóntico, debido al debilitamiento de la estructura dental remanente y las posibles afectaciones periodontales. Debido a que la boca está localizada en uno de los puntos focales de la cara, cualquier alteración en la apariencia estética puede provocar implicaciones psicológicas que pueden ir desde una simple forma de esconder el defecto hasta la más grande introversión. Objetivo: Presentar un caso clínico de reabsorción dentaria interna resuelto con implante postextractivo de carga inmediata. Presentación de caso: Paciente femenina de 31 años con reabsorción dental interna de incisivo central superior. Se llevó a cabo un adecuado diagnóstico y plan de tratamiento del caso, colocándose un implante transalveolar cargado de forma inmediata y la rehabilitación definitiva metalcerámica una vez concluida la fase de osteointegración. Conclusiones: Se consiguió una rehabilitación estética, funcional y biomecánicamente estable a largo plazo, que coincide con las expectativas del paciente, lo cual demuestra que cuando se cumplan los requisitos adecuados y la planificación sea exhaustiva, la implantología ofrece el tratamiento más avanzado en casos en que es inminente la extracción dental(AU)

Introduction: In their daily professional practice dentists are faced with a variety of conditions. An example is internal root resorption, the advanced stage of which may complicate the prognosis of dental treatment, due to the weakening of the remnant dental structure and the potential appearance of periodontal disease. Because the mouth is located in one of the focal points of the face, any alteration of its esthetic appearance may result in psychological disorders ranging from a simple attempt to mask the defect to the greatest introversion. Objective: Present a clinical case of internal tooth resorption solved with a post-extraction immediate load implant. Case presentation: A female 31-year-old patient presents with internal tooth resorption of the maxillary central incisor. Appropriate diagnosis was performed and a treatment plan devised, consisting in immediate placement of a transalveolar implant and definitive metal-ceramic rehabilitation upon completion of the osseointegration stage. Conclusions: Stable long-term esthetic, functional and biomechanical rehabilitation was achieved which met the patient's expectations. This result shows that when the established requirements are complied with and exhaustive planning is performed, implantology offers the most advanced treatment when dental extraction is imminent(AU)

Impact of immediately loaded implant-supported maxillary full-arch dental prostheses: a systematic review

Abstract The immediate loading of implant-assisted fixed prostheses in edentulous maxillae may achieve favorable success rates with reduced treatment time. An evidence summary of clinical trials is key to recommend loading protocols in these cases. Objectives To compare immediately loaded, fully implant-supported complete dentures to early and conventional/delayed loading in the edentulous maxillae of adult patients by a systematic review of controlled clinical trials (CCT). Methodology CCTs reports were identified up to January 17, 2019 from Cochrane Oral Health Group's Trial register, Cochrane Central Register of controlled trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE (Ovid), BIOSIS, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and DARE. Two independent reviewers screened titles/abstracts and confirmed inclusion using full texts. Data were extracted and quality assessed (Cochrane Risk of Bias tool) independently and in duplicate. Study heterogeneity prevented pooling by meta-analysis. Results Out of 1,052 candidate studies, four CCTs were included. Two trials had patient satisfaction as an outcome: (1) A randomized trial compared immediately and early loaded fixed dentures and found more satisfaction with the first after 12 months; (2) A non-randomized study found better satisfaction with immediate fixed dentures compared to conventional loading after 3 months (no more at 12 months). Regarding implant success and prosthetic complications, three trials did not report significant differences comparing immediate loading to other protocols. Conclusions This review found weak evidence of differences between immediate load and other loading regimens, regarding patient satisfaction and maintenance events/adversities. The potential of immediate loading for favorable results in edentulous maxillae reinforces the need for well-designed RCTs, for solid clinical guidelines.

Control Clínico en Pacientes Rehabilitados Mediante Prótesis Fija Total con carga Inmediata. Revisión de la Literatura / Clinical Control of Patients Treated with an Immediately Loaded Implant-Supported Prosthesis. A Systematic Review

RESUMEN: Son varias las complicaciones que se pueden presentar posterior a la instalación de una prótesis fija total con carga inmediata (PFTCI), estas pudiesen generar desde el daño de la estructura protésica provisoria hasta la pérdida de la oseointegración de los implantes dentales. La escasa evidencia sobre el comportamiento clínico que se debe tener posterior a este tipo de tratamiento indica la necesidad de controlar mejor estas complicaciones. En esta revisión narrativa, el 3 de marzo de 2016 se realizó una búsqueda electrónica en la base de datos PubMed. Para poder efectuar una investigación acabada los filtros de búsqueda fueron ajustados de la siguiente manera. Se utilizaron los términos de búsqueda "immediate loading" AND "full arch" AND "Resonance frequency analysis". Los que fueron sometidos a los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, dando como resultado un total de 15 estudios. Todos los estudios eran ensayos clínicos controlados, donde se encontraron complicaciones como fracturas, desalojos y desgaste de la estructura protésica, entre otros. Se pudo observar que desde el día de la carga hasta un mes después el valor ISQ (cociente de estabilidad del implante) disminuye, para luego aumentar paulatina y progresivamente. En conclusión, no existe evidencia sobre el número y rango de sesiones necesarias para el control clínico de una PFTCI. El momento más indicado para la extracción de la prótesis provisoria e instalación de la prótesis definitiva es durante el 3° y 4° mes posterior a la carga inmediata. Existe escasa evidencia sobre el número, momento y tipo de examen imageneológico a solicitar. La presencia de complicaciones protésicas posterior a una PFTCI hace necesaria la confección de un protocolo de control clínico para este tipo de tratamiento.

ABSTRACT: There are many complications that can occur following placement with an immediately loaded implant-supported prosthesis in rehabilitation, these may generate damage to the provisional structure and even loss of the osseointegration from the dental implants. Limited evidence about clinical behavior post-installation, creates the need to better assess possible future complications that may arise. In this review, a systematic research was made in the PubMed database. The filters used were "immediate loading", "full arch" and "Resonance frequency analysis". The results were subject to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of 15 studies were selected. All of the studies were randomized clinical trials, many complications were recorded, such as fractures, dislodgement and wear of the prosthesis structure. It was observed that from the first day of immediate loading until the first month, Implant Stability Quotient value decreases, subsequently, progressively increasing. There is no evidence about the number and range of sessions needed to assess the clinical control of a immediate loading fixed rehabilitation. The ideal time for removal of the provisional prosthesis and installation of the restorative rehabilitation, is during the third and fourth month after the immediate loading. Limited evidence was found regarding the number, the time and type of radiological images for clinical support. The possibility of several complications after an installation of a immediately loaded implant-supported prosthesis are very real, therefore is necessary to establish a clinical protocol for controls regarding this treatment.

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Rehabilitated Implants with Overdenture with Two Ball Abutments in the Mandible and Submitted to Immediate Load: One Year of Observation / Evaluación Clínica y Radiográfica de Implantes Rehabilitados con Sobredentadura con dos Pilares de Bola en la Mandíbula y Sometidos a Carga Inmediata: Un Año de Observación

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this prospective clinical study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic survival of two non-splinted implants immediately loaded with ball abutments for supporting mandibular overdentures. Thirty edentulous patients using full dentures (22 women and 8 men) with a mean age of 64 years were included in this study. Each patient received two inter-foraminal implants in the mandible, near the canine, with an insertion torque greater than 45 Ncm. Nonsplinted ball abutments were connected to the implants, and the overdenture was immediately loaded. The success of the implants was clinically and radiographically evaluated; along with the satisfaction level of the patients, after the first year of having placed the implants. One patient withdrew from the study. After 12 months the implants were loaded, the survival rate was of 98.27 %, one implant failed. The average bone loss was of 0.34 mm. No surgical complications were observed, minor prosthetic maintenance appointments were required. The satisfaction of the patients was of 89.3 %. The immediate loading of two non-splinted implants in the inter-foraminal area of the mandible retaining an overdenture by means of ball abutments is a predictable treatment, with a high success rate of survival and a favorable response of the peri-implant tissues. The patients showed good satisfaction with this treatment modality.

RESUMEN: El propósito de este estudio clínico prospectivo fue evaluar la supervivencia de manera clínica y radiográfica de dos implantes no ferulizados cargados inmediatamente con pilares tipo bola para soportar sobredentaduras mandibulares.Treinta pacientes desdentados totales usuarios de prótesis total (22 mujeres y 8 hombres) con una edad promedio de 64 años se incluyeron en este estudio. Cada paciente recibió dos implantes interforaminales en la mandíbula aproximadamente en posición de canino con un torque mayor a los 45 Ncm. Pilares no ferulizados tipo bola se conectaron a los implantes y se cargó inmediatamente la sobredentadura. El éxito de los implantes se evaluó clínica y radiográficamente; así como el nivel de satisfacción de los pacientes al año de haber sido colocados los implantes. Una paciente se retiró del estudio. Después de 12 meses de cargados los implantes la tasa de supervivencia fue del 98,27 %, un implante fracasó. El promedio de pérdida ósea fue de 0.34 mm. No se observaron complicaciones quirúrgicas, se requirieron citas de mantenimiento protésicas menores. La satisfacción de los pacientes fue del 89,3 %. La carga inmediata de dos implantes no ferulizados en el área interforaminal de la mandíbula reteniendo una sobredentadura a través de pilares en bola es un tratamiento predecible, con un alta tasa de éxito de supervivencia, y respuesta favorable de los tejidos periimplantares. Los pacientes muestran una buena satisfacción ante ésta modalidad de tratamiento.

Implante dental inmediato en paciente diabético / Immediate dental implant post-extraction on systemically compromised patient

RESUMEN: Actualmente el implante dental se considera una buena alternativa para reemplazar los órganos dentarios faltantes. Sin embargo, existen ciertos requerimientos necesarios para la colocación de este y obtener una buena resolución. Estudios actuales demuestran que la colocación inmediata del implante dental posterior a la extracción dental obtiene mejores resultados a largo plazo y preserva el espacio alveolo dental natural por lo cual facilita la inserción y correcto ajuste del implante dental, siempre y cuando la extracción sea atraumática y sin complicaciones. Por ende, en el presente caso se reporta paciente masculino de 73 años con antecedentes de hipertensión arterial y diabetes mellitus tipo II, controlado con su médico especialista, al cual se le realizó extracción dentaría atraumática de OD#46 con inmediata colocación de implante dental NORMON HI e inserción de xenoinjerto óseo BIO-GEN para asegurar correcta oseointegración, cuyo procedimiento se realizó sin complicaciones y con correcta posición y paralelismo.

ABSTRACT: Nowadays, a dental implant is considered a good alternative to replace the missing teeth. However, there are several requirements needed for the implant placements and for a good resolution. Present studies demonstrate that the immediate implant placement posterior to the extraction of the tooth obtains better long-term results and also preserves the natural alveolar socket. This facilitates the placement and correct adjustment of the dental implant, only if the extraction is done atraumatically and without complications. Therefore, the present case reports a 73-year-old male patient with arterial hypertension and type II diabetes mellitus background, controlled by his medical doctor. An atraumatic tooth extraction of OD#46 was carried out on this patient, with immediate dental implant NORMON HI placement and insertion of xenograft bone BIO-GEN in order to ensure correct osseointegration. This procedure was done without complications and with correct position and parallelism.

Reconstrução estética com instalação imediata de implante / Aesthetic reconstruction with immediate implant installation ­ case report

A diminuição do tempo de tratamento com implantes osseointegrados, assim como a redução da complexidade do plano de tratamento e a otimização de protocolos minimamente invasivos, é um dos aspectos atuais em reabilitações com implantes. A instalação imediata de implantes em sítios pós-exodontia tem sido relatada na literatura como uma técnica previsível, permitindo a redução do tempo e do número de procedimentos para reabilitação protética. Este artigo relatou um caso clínico de reabilitação de um incisivo central superior perdido por reabsorção radicular, em que foi instalado um implante com confecção imediata de uma prótese temporária. No intuito de minimizar as alterações volumétricas inerentes ao processo de exodontia, além da utilização de um substituto ósseo entre a tábua óssea alveolar e o implante, foi utilizado enxerto de tecido conjuntivo removido do palato. A técnica possibilitou uma reabilitação estética e funcional adequada, e redução no tempo de tratamento com mínimo trauma ao paciente.

Decreasing treatment time with dental implants, as well as reducing the complexity of the treatment plan and optimize minimally invasive protocols, are current issues in rehabilitation with implants. Immediate implant placement in post-extraction sites have been reported in the literature as a predictable technique allowing to reduce the time and number of procedures for prosthetic rehabilitation. This is a case report of an upper central incisor lost due to root resorption, receiving an immediate implant and construction of a temporary prosthesis. In order to minimize volumetric changes inherent in the extraction process, besides the use of a bone substitute between alveolar bone plate and the implant, it was used connective tissue graft removed from the palate. The technique allowed an aesthetic and functional rehabilitation and appropriate reduction in treatment time with minimal tissue trauma.

Accuracy of computer-guided surgery / La precisión de la cirugía guiada por ordenador

Dental implant fixation techniques are widely studied in order to reduce surgical morbidity. Computer-guided flapless surgery has been considered an efficient alternative that presents several advantages and some limitations. This technique allows the virtual planning and simulation of the prosthetic-surgical treatment that can help predict the difficulties and limitations in order to reduce possible errors. In addition to the prosthetic predictability, computer-guided surgery enhances accuracy and reduces surgical morbidity. Thus, the aim of this study was to report on a 7-year follow-up of immediately loaded implants inserted into an edentulous maxilla using virtual planning and flapless surgery.

Las técnicas de fijación del implante dental se estudian ampliamente para reducir la morbilidad quirúrgica. La cirugía sin flapless guiada por ordenador ha sido considerada como una alternativa eficiente con varias ventajas y algunas limitaciones. Esta técnica permite la planificación virtual y simulación del tratamiento protésico quirúrgico con la predicción de las dificultades y limitaciones para reducir posibles errores. Además de la previsibilidad de prótesis, la cirugía guiada por ordenador mejora la precisión y reduce la morbilidad quirúrgica. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue reportar a 5 años de seguimiento de los implantes de carga inmediata insertados en un maxilar desdentado utilizando la planificación virtual y la cirugía sin colgajo. El presente caso prospectivo informó el éxito del tratamiento y destacó la importancia de la planificación, lo que justifica el costo de esta tecnología.

Carga inmediata con rehabilitación definitiva en maxilar inferior: reporte de caso / Immediate load with definitive prosthesis in the lower jaw: a case report

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un protocolo simplificado para la instalación inmediata de una prótesis definitiva sobre 4 implantes mandibulares. Fue realizado en una paciente de sexo femenino de 72 años, desdentada total. Se inició el tratamiento con la confección de una prótesis removible convencional hasta la prueba de articulación dentaria, a partir de lo cual se obtuvo una guía multifuncional. En la cirugía se instalaron 4 implantes Strong SW (SIN®, Sao Paulo, Brasil) entre agujeros mentonianos. Se atornillaron pilares Mini-Abutment y se tomó la impresión utilizando la guía. Al segundo día se probó la estructura metálica con el enfilado dentario en cera y al tercer día se realizó la instalación de la prótesis terminada con torque manual. A los 10 días se retiró la sutura y se dio torque a los tornillos protésicos (10 N/cm). La paciente ha asistido a controles, sin presentar complicaciones hasta este momento.

The aim of this paper is to present a simplified protocol for immediate installation of a definitive prosthesis over four jaw implants. This was performed on a totally edentulous female patient of 72 years. The treatment was initiated with the preparation of a conventional removable prosthesis until the dental articulation test from which a multifunctional guide was obtained. At surgery, four Strong SW (SIN®, Sao Paulo, Brazil) implants were installed between mental foramen. Mini-Abutments were screwed and the impression was made using the guide. On the second day the metal structure was tested with the dental articulation in wax and on the third day the definitive prosthesis was installed with manual torque. The suture was removed 10 days after surgery, and the torque was given to prosthetic screws (10 N/cm). The patient was followed up every 6 months, with no complications so far.

Prosthetic abutment influences bone biomechanical behavior of immediately loaded implants

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the type of prosthetic abutment associated to different implant connection on bone biomechanical behavior of immediately and delayed loaded implants. Computed tomography-based finite element models comprising a mandible with a single molar implant were created with different types of prosthetic abutment (UCLA or conical), implant connection (external hexagon, EH or internal hexagon, IH), and occlusal loading (axial or oblique), for both immediately and delayed loaded implants. Analysis of variance at 95%CI was used to evaluate the peak maximum principal stress and strain in bone after applying a 100 N occlusal load. The results showed that the type of prosthetic abutment influences bone stress/strain in only immediately loaded implants. Attachment of conical abutments to IH implants exhibited the best biomechanical behavior, with optimal distribution and dissipation of the load in peri-implant bone.

Considerações sobre a utilização dos implantes imediatos carregados em região estética û relato de caso / Considerations on the use of immediate loaded implants in aesthetic region û case report

A remoção de um elemento dentário resulta constantemente em defeitos ósseos que dificultam a instalação de um implante dentário, sendo que na grande maioria dos casos é necessária a realização de um enxerto ósseo. Atualmente, os implantes imediatos representam uma opção viável e previsível para repor um elemento dentário que esteja condenado, possibilitando, na grande maioria dos casos, até mesmo o carregamento imediato do implante. No entanto, para se obter bons resultados com as implantações imediatas é necessário especial cuidado relacionado com o carregamento imediato do implante e também na preservação da tábua óssea vestibular remanescente. Sendo assim, no presente trabalho procurou-se relatar um caso clínico de implantação imediata, bem como discutir esses cuidados especiais que precisam ser tomados durante o ato operatório, para possibilitar a estabilidade dos resultados a longo prazo.

The extraction of a tooth results in bone defects which hinder the installation of a dental implant, and requiring bone graft for most of the cases. Currently, immediate implants represent viable option to replace an impaired tooth and in most cases enable even the immediate loading of the implant. However, in order to be succsesful the immediate loading of implants must be carefully executed and preserve the remaining buccal bone plate. Thus, the present study sought to report a case of immediate implementation and to discuss these special cares that must be taken during surgery to enable stability of long-term results.

Avaliação e prevenção da hipertensão arterial por vasos constritores em Implantodontia – estudo clínico prospectivo / Evaluation and preventive measures against arterial hypertension (AHT) provoked by vasoconstrictors in dental implant practice – a clinical prospective study

Objetivo: alertar os profissionais da Implantologia sobre a alta incidência de hipertensão arterial (HTA) nos pacientes da terceira idade que se submeterão ao procedimento cirúrgico, considerando-se também os protocolos de carga imediata. Material e métodos: foram realizados 113 procedimentos com anestesia parenteral com a finalidade de reabilitação oral por meio de protocolos de carga imediata entre os anos de 2010 e 2014. A idade dos pacientes variou entre 65 e 75 anos, salientando que todos eles eram portadores de hipertensão arterial de grau leve, moderado e grave. Destes pacientes, 90 eram hipertensos sintomáticos que usavam medicamentos hipotensores, e 23 eram hipertensos assintomáticos. No caso dos pacientes que optaram pelas cargas imediatas de dupla arcada, por escolha própria, os procedimentos foram efetuados em hospitais, já que poderiam ser realizados em clínicas odontológicas, desde que gozassem de boa saúde. Os pacientes com avaliação física A.S.A. III somente podem passar por procedimentos realizados em hospitais. Todos os procedimentos foram catalogados em fichas de anestesia, que consistem em um documento de responsabilidade do anestesiologista e que contém os dados clínicos do paciente, orientando os procedimentos da futura anestesia. Resultados: nos pacientes de carga imediata, foram identificados 90 portadores de HTA de grau leve, moderado e grave. Ainda, dois casos demonstraram níveis críticos de pressão arterial elevada (180 e 200 mmHg) logo no começo da infiltração, e providências imediatas foram realizadas, como o uso de um hipotensor de ação rápida via sublingual de Adalat de 10 mg. Conclusão: é importante aferir a pressão arterial, em curtos intervalos de tempo, em procedimentos odontológicos nos pacientes da terceira idade, com história pregressa de HTA. A prevenção da HTA na fase pré-cirúrgica consiste em diminuir a ansiedade com o uso de medicamento com finalidade ansiolítica...

Objective: to alert implant dental practitioners on the high incidence of arterial hypertension (AHT) on third age patients undergoing surgical procedures, also considering the immediate loading protocols. Material and methods: between the years of 2010 to 2014, 113 procedures were performed with parenteral anesthesia for oral rehabilitation treatment. The patient´s age ranged from 65 to 75 years, all demonstrating mild, moderate, and severe AHT. From these, 90 were hypertensive under appropriate medication, while 23 were asymptomatic. For patients preferring immediate loading in both jaws, all procedures were performed in a hospital setting. Patients under A.S.A. III category cannot be operated at dental clinics. All procedures were recording in appropriate anesthesiology files with all clinical data for further anesthetic administration. Results: 90 patients were considered with mild, moderate, and severe AHT levels. Also, two cases demonstrated critical levels of arterial pressure (180 and 200 mmHg) at the beginning of infi ltration, and immediate maneuvers were provided with a fast hypotensive sublingual agent (Adalat 10 mg). Conclusion: it is important to check arterial pressure at short periods of time during dental procedures for third age patients with a reported history of AHT. Prevention of ATH at the pre-surgical moment can reduce the anxiety by use of appropriate medication. ATH levels can be diminished with an hypotensive agent and a boosting dose also reducing epinephrine doses relative to ATH classification.

Tomografia computadorizada por feixe cônico para identificação de defeitos ósseos peri-implantares quimicamente simulados em costelas bovinas frescas / Cone beam computed tomography for identification of peri-implant bone loss chemically simulated in fresh bovine ribs

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a acurácia, sensibilidade, especificidade e concordância inter e intra-observador dos exames radiográficos: radiografia periapical digital indireta (RP) por meio de placas de fósforo e tomografia computadorizada por feixe cônico (TCFC) na detecção de defeitos ósseos peri-implantares quimicamente simulados com Ácido Perclórico a 70%. 80 implantes foram instalados em blocos de costela bovina. Os implantes foram divididos em 2 grupos (grupo controle e grupo teste), em seguida o grupo teste foi dividido em 2 subgrupos (G1 e G2). O grupo G1 foi exposto a 4h de ácido causando defeitos de aproximadamente 3-4 mm de profundidade e largura <=1 mm, enquanto o grupo G2 foi exposto a 12h . Posteriormente, as amostras foram submetidas a um sistema de Radiografia digital indireta por meio de placa de fósforo (CS 7600) e a dois diferentes tomógrafos, utilizando variados protocolos (iCAT Next Generation e 3D Accuitomo 170). Os observadores avaliaram as imagens em um programa de visualização independente (OsiriX MD) utilizando a ferramenta a 3D-RMP que permite explorar cortes axiais, coronais, sagitais, parassagitais e circunferenciais simultaneamente.

No 3D Accuitomo 170, variaram entre 0.563 a 0.904, em protocolos diferentes. No grupo com defeito ósseos maiores os resultados foram superiores. Na radiografia periapical, os valores encontrados variaram entre 0,652 a 0,771; no iCAT Next Generation, variaram entre 0,708 a 0,946 em dois protocolos diferentes e no 3D Accuitomo 170, entre 0.628 a 0.962 em 4 protocolos diferentes...

The aim of this study was to test the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, inter and intra-observer and area AZ values of two radiographic examinations: digital periapical radiographs and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the detection of two sizes of peri-implant bone defects chemically simulated with Perchloric Acid 70%. PR and CBCT were performed in 80 dental implants installed in blocks of bovine rib. An indirect digital radiography system using smart phosphor plates (CS 7600) and two different CBCT scanners, using different protocols (iCAT Next Generation 3D Accuitomo 170) were evaluated. Observers evaluated the images in a separate DICOM viewer (OsiriX MD) using the 3D-RMP tool. This tool allows the visualization of axial, coronal, sagittal, cross-section and circumferential images. In samples evaluated by periapical radiography, the AZ values found in the samples with smaller bone defects ranged from 0.442 to 0.534; in iCAT Next Generantion, ranged from 0.645 to 0.828 in two different protocols. In the group with larger bone defect results were superior. In periapical, the values found ranged from 0.652 to 0.771; iCAT the Next Generation ranged from 0.708 to 0.946 in two different protocols and 3D Accuitomo 170, 0.628-0.962 in 4 different protocols...

Substituição e estética imediata na região anterior da maxila utilizando implante Drive e munhão anatômico / Replacement and immediate aesthetic in the anterior maxilla using Drive implants and anatomic trunnion

O aumento da exigência estética na reabilitação com implantes provocou uma mudança nos conceitos de tratamento dentro da Implantodontia. Novas técnicas vêm sendo desenvolvidas no intuito de diminuir o tempo de tratamento, minimizando também o custo e o trauma cirúrgico e psicológico dos pacientes, principalmente em regiões com envolvimento estético. A substituição imediata em Implantodontia consiste na instalação de implantes em alvéolos frescos imediatamente após a extração dentária e a confecção de um provisório diretamente sobre implante, na mesma sessão clínica. Isto é possível quando é alcançada uma estabilidade primária suficiente para que este implante seja submetido a cargas funcionais controladas. A técnica de substituição e estética imediata é um procedimento que oferece elevados índices de sucesso, uma vez que permite a diminuição do tempo de espera pela prótese definitiva, menor número de intervenções cirúrgicas, eliminação da utilização de prótese provisória re¬movível ou adesiva e favorece a manutenção dos tecidos peri-implantares, além de oferecer um relativo conforto psicológico ao paciente. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar um caso clínico de substituição e estética imediata de um incisivo central superior fraturado, discutindo as vantagens desta técnica.

The demand for aesthetic results in reatment with dental implants has increased resulting on a change in Implantology. New techniques were developed in order to reduce the time of treatment minimizing costs, surgical and psychological trauma to the patients, especially in regions with aesthetic involvement. Immediate replacement consists on installing implants in fresh alveolus immediately after tooth extraction and preparation of a provisional crown directly over the implant, all in the same clinical session. This is possible when achieved enough primary stability is achieved, so the implant is subjected to controlled functional loads. The replacement and immediate aesthetics technique has a high success rate, since it allows re¬duction on the waiting time for definitive prosthesis, smaller number of surgeries, elimination of use of adhesive or removable prosthesis, assists the preservation of peri-implant tissues, besides offering elative psychological comfort to the patient. The objective of this study was to report a case of immediate replacement of a fractured maxillary central incisor, discussing the advantages of this technique.

Once accepted by the patient, it is doubled to make a tomographic guidance, used to take a dental scanner, The prosthetic needs and implant distribution are related to the emergence and continuation of the mental nerve, mental foramen and height and shape of the jaw. All patients were operated lifting a full-thickness flap and using the All on-4 (Nobel Biocare) surgical guide under intravenous sedation, and a flexible bucket for the maxillomandibular and implant records in the immediate loading...

Implante cone morse de carga imediata com coroa CAD-CAM - relato de caso / Immediate loading Morse taper implant with CAD-CAM crown - case report

Os implantes dentários mostraram grande avanço nos últimos anos, sendo uma realidade a reabilitação bucal através da carga imediata implantossuportada. Os implantes cone morse podem ser utilizados com sucesso para todas as realidades clínicas e estão sendo cada vez mais utilizados como eleição para a reposição de dentes ausentes. Com o advento da tecnologia CAD/CAM (desenho de uma estrutura protética em um computador, seguido de sua usinagem por máquina de fresagem) houve mudanças significativas na obtenção de próteses e infraestruturas protéticas. Nessa perspectiva, o objetivo deste estudo é reportar um caso clínico utilizando-se o implante cone morse unitário com coroa CAD/CAM de carga imediata. Conclui-se que o correto planejamento, indicação e execução da terapia escolhida são fundamentais para a satisfação do paciente, podendo o implante do tipo cone morse com carga imediata ser utilizado com sucesso em casos de ausência dentária unitária posterior e que a tecnologia CAD/CAM permite a produção de coroas protéticas de alta qualidade quando as etapas de confecção são realizadas de maneira adequada.

Dental implants have shown great progress in the recent years, and oral rehabilitation with implant-supported immediate load became a reality. The Morse taper implants can be successfully utilized for all clinical conditions and are increasingly being used as an option to replace missing teeth. With the advent of CAD/CAM technology (design of a prosthetic structure on a computer, followed by a milling machine for machining) there were significant changes in obtaining prostheses and prosthetic infrastructure. In this perspective, the aim of this study was to report a clinical case using single tooth implantation with morse taper implant and CAD/CAM immediate loading crown. We conclude that the correct planning, execution and display of the selected treatment are the key to patient’s satisfaction, and immediate load morse taper implant can be used successfully in cases of single tooth absence. In addition CAD/CAM technology enables the production of high quality prosthetic crowns when manufacturing steps are properly carried out

Piezocirurgia aplicada à cirurgia ortognática - estudo retrospectivo com descrição de nova técnica de piezo-osteotomia sagital da mandíbula / Piezosurgery applied to orthognathic surgery – retrospective study with description of a new technique mandibular sagittal piezo-osteotomy

A cirurgia piezoelétrica foi iniciada em 2000 com o clássico artigo do Dr. Tomaso Vercellotti e a aplicação na cirurgia ortognática com publicações somente em 2004 e 2005. Este artigo descreve o uso racional das pontas ultrassônicas na cirurgia ortognática, com especial ênfase à descrição de uma nova piezo-osteotomia sagital de mandíbula. Também relata a experiência de cinco anos do autor com o uso da piezocirurgia nos procedimentos de cirurgia ortognática. No período de maio de 2007 a maio de 2012, foram realizados quarenta e três procedimentos maxilares: 36,5% Le Fort I multi-segmentadas, 26,8% Le Fort I para expansão rápida de maxila assistida cirurgicamente, 19,6% Le Fort I, 14,6% osteotomia subapical anterior de maxila e 2,5% Le Fort II modificada. Dos 36 procedimentos maxilares que envolveram disjunção pterigomaxilar, 100% foram realizados com cinzel após 30,5% de tentativas frustradas para piezo disjunção. Das 61 mandíbulas operadas, 88,3% osteotomia sagital de mandíbula bilateral, 41,6% mentoplastia Tenon e Mortise, 5% expansão rápida de mandíbula assistida cirurgicamente, 5% mentoplastia horizontal reta, 5% osteotomia subapical anterior de mandíbula, 5% osteotomia subapical posterior de mandíbula bilateral, 1,6% osteotomia subapical posterior de mandíbula unilateral e 1,6% osteotomia sagital de mandíbula unilateral. O tempo para a piezo-osteotomia aumentou de 10 a 20% nas osteotomias maxilares e de 20 a 30% nas osteotomias mandibulares (mentoplastias inclusas), quando comparado com as técnicas tradicionais com brocas e serras. As maiores porcentagens do tempo gasto foram para os primeiros pacientes operados em 2007, ano do início da experiência do autor com a piezocirurgia. Nenhuma intercorrência transoperatória ou complicações foram observadas no emprego da técnica

The piezoelectric surgery was initiated in the year 2000 with the classic Dr. Tomaso Vercellotti´s article and, its application in maxillary and mandibular orthognathic surgery publications have occured only in 2004 and 2005. This article reports the rational for ultrasonic inserts application for osteotomy/osteoplasty in orthognathic surgery with special emphasis to a new sagittalpiezo-osteotomy. It also, reports the author´s five-year piezosurgery experience in orthognathic surgical procedures. Forty three maxillary procedures were performed: 36.5% multipieceLe Fort I, 26.8% Le Fort I for rapid maxillaryexpansion, 19.6% Le Fort I, 14.6% subapical anterior maxillary osteotomy, and 2.5% modified Le Fort II. Of the thirty six procedures involving maxillary pterygomaxillary disjunction, 100% were carried out with chisel after 30.5% ofthe attempts to usepiezo-disjunction failed. Of the sixty one operated mandibles, 88.3% bilateral sagittal split mandibular osteotomy, 41.6% genioplasty with Mortise e Tenon technique, 5% mandibular rapid expansion, 5% genioplasty with straight horizontal technique, 5% subapical anterior mandibular osteotomy, 5% bilateral subapical posterior mandibular osteotomy, 1.6% unilateral subapical posterior mandibular osteotomy, and 1.6% unilateral sagittal split mandibular osteotomy. The time for piezo-osteotomy has increased by about 10 to 20% for maxillary osteotomies, and about 20 to 30% for mandibular osteotomies (genioplasties included) as compared to traditional techniques using drills and reciprocating saws. The largest percentages of time were spent for the first patients operated in 2007, year of the beginning of the author’s experience with piezosurgery. None intraoperative complications were observed with the technique application

Sobredentaduras mandibulares inmediatas: revisión de literatura / Immediate mandibular overdentures: review of literature

Las Prótesis totales convencionales aún cuando bien confeccionadas, pueden presentar deficiencias en la retención, estabilidad y soporte, además de la incomodidad y acumulo de alimentos. Las sobredentaduras sobre implantes fueron consideradas una alternativa para solucionar problemas y experiencias negativas con las prótesis convencionales, así también pueden ser una alternativa a los tratamientos complejos (quirúrgico/protésico) con prótesis fijas soportadas por implantes. Buscando reducir el período de cicatrización para la confección de las prótesis, las investigaciones mostraron altos índices de éxito para los tratamientos con sobredentaduras mandibulares inmediatas sobre implantes, que fueron utilizadas en la rehabilitación de pacientes edéntulos. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo abordar, por medio de una revisión de literatura, la viabilidad de la utilización de sobredentaduras mandibulares implanto retenidas. Los implantes de carga inmediata que retienen una sobredentadura mandibular que ha mostrado ser un método reproducible, previsible y de confianza para restablecer una eficiente función masticatoria a los pacientes totalmente edéntulos

Conventional complete denture even though well confectioned, could present deficiencies in the retention, stability and support, in addition uncomfortable and retention of food below it. The overdentures have been considered an alternative to resolve problems and negative experiences with the conventional dentures, thus also can be an alternative to the complex treatments (surgical/prosthetic) with implant-supported prosthesis. In the attempt to reduce the healing time for the confection of the dentures showed higher rates of success to the implants when immediate mandibular overdentures were used in the rehabilitation of edentulous patients. The aim of this paper was to discuss by means of a Literature review, the viability of the use of mandibular implant-supported overdentures. The immediate mandibular overdentures have been showed like a reproducible method, predictable and confidence to provide an efficient function to the total edentulous patients
