Management of Postsurgical Complication in Multiple Implant-Infected Postextraction Sites in the Lower Arch by Frank Mayta-Tovalino, José Rosas, Cesar Mauricio-Vilchez, Silvia Luza, Daniel Alvitez-Temoche, Franco Mauricio

“…Surgery combined with therapeutic management with antibiotics was performed, allowing preservation of the osseointegration of the implants in the lower arch. Within the limitations of this study, it was shown that more research is needed to determine the success and survival of implants presenting complications due to infections during the osseointegration process.…”

Variations to the Nanotube Surface for Bone Regeneration by Christine J. Frandsen, Karla S. Brammer, Sungho Jin

“…The complex mechanisms of the bone cell-surface interactions are yet to be completely understood, and researchers continue to strive to uncover the fully optimized implant material for perfect osseointegration. A particularly fascinating area of research involves the study of nanostructured surfaces, which are believed to enhance osteogenic behavior, possibly due to the mimicry of components of the extracellular matrix of bone. …”
