Length and Geometric Patterns of the Greater Palatine Canal Observed in Cone Beam Computed Tomography by Karen Howard-Swirzinski, Paul C. Edwards, Tarnjit S. Saini, Neil S. Norton

“…Increased awareness of the length and anatomic variation in the anatomy of this structure is important when performing surgical procedures in this area (e.g., placement of osseointegrated dental implants). We examined the anatomy of the greater palatine canal using data obtained from CBCT scans of 500 subjects. …”

Comparative Evaluation of Elemental and Surface Changes of Retrieved Titanium and Stainless Steel Orthodontic Miniscrew: An in vivo Study by Aditi Bendre, Veera Bhosale, Shrushti Bapat, Shivangini Swarnkar, Vinit Swami, Siddharth Shinde

“…The presence of calcium on the retrieved titanium implants could be the reason for its better stability compared to stainless steel implants due to its ability to osseointegrate. Conclusion: Surface changes in the form of dullness. loss of gloss, blunting and crater formation were observed, while elemental changes in the form of statistically significant increase in the oxygen, nitrogen , carbon and calcium content were observed on the retrieved mini-implants.…”

Optimizing Soft Tissue Emergence Profile Around One-Piece Dental Implants by Abduljaleel Azad Samad

“…After 3 months among 137 inserted implants; 97.8% of the implants were successfully osseointegrated. After removal of the temporary crown a very nice anatomical emergence profile created and the results of papilla index after three months showed that the majority of the cases (84 cases comprises 61.3%) ended with score number 3, which means Optimal soft tissue contour and the papillae fill up the entire proximal space. …”
