Evaluation of color stabilization of peri-implant mucosa in different restorative material, abutment and tissue thickness combinations: an in vitro study

Turan Emre KUZU | Kübra ÖZTÜRK | Damla Güneş ÜNLÜ

Aim The aim of this in vitro study is to determine the level of color change of the peri-implant mucosa in several combinations of parameters, including different experimentally-created peri-implant tissue thicknesses, and different prosthetic crown and abutment materials, by spectrophotometric measurements. Materials and methods In this in vitro study, a sheep’s head was used because it resembles human mucosa in terms of color and texture. Different experimentally-created peri-implant tissue thicknesses were determined, i.e. 1, 1.5, 2 and 3 mm, and to provide these thicknesses 0.5, 1 and 2 mm ...Daha fazlası

Effect of photobiomodulation therapy on peri-implant bone healing in extra-short implants in a rabbit model: A pilot study

Turan Emre KUZU | Kübra ÖZTÜRK | Cem Abdülkadir GÜRGAN

Objective:To evaluate the effects of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) at distinct energy levels on peri-implant bone healing in extra-short implants in a experimental rabbit model.Background:The effect of PBMT on peri-implant bone healing in short implants remains unclear. This explo-red the effect of PBMT on extra-short implants in terms of bone-implant contact (BIC) length and rate, andimplant stability quotient (ISQ).Methods:Fifteen white New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into five groups. In all groups, extra-shortimplants (3.5·4 mm; Nucleoss T6,_Izmir/Turkey) were placed in both ...Daha fazlası
