Journal ArticleDOI

The interleukin-1 genotype as a severity factor in adult periodontal disease

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that specific genetic markers, that have been associated with increased IL-1 production, are a strong indicator of susceptibility to severe periodontitis in adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone response to unloaded and loaded titanium implants with a sandblasted and acid-etched surface : A histometric study in the canine mandible

TL;DR: Results are consistent with earlier studies on SLA implants and suggest that this surface promotes greater osseous contact at earlier time points compared to TPS-coated implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biologic width around titanium implants. A histometric analysis of the implanto-gingival junction around unloaded and loaded nonsubmerged implants in the canine mandible.

TL;DR: The data suggest that a biologic width exists around unloaded and loaded nonsubmerged one-part titanium implants and that this is a physiologically formed and stable dimension as is found around teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biologic width around titanium implants. A physiologically formed and stable dimension over time

TL;DR: Data indicate that the Biologic Width is a physiologically formed and stable structure over time in the case of non-submerged, one-piece titanium implants as evaluated histometrically under unloaded and loaded conditions for up to 12 months.
Journal Article

Outcome analysis of implant restorations located in the anterior maxilla: a review of the recent literature.

TL;DR: This review has demonstrated that scientific documentation of esthetically relevant and reproducible parameters is rather scarce, and most of the reported outcome analyses primarily focus on implant survival.
