Abstract
Objectives The objective of this study is to assess oral health and oral status of elderly patients newly admitted to a nursing home from admission until death. Materials and methods Oral health, oral status, need for dental care, cooperation with dental treatment, and given dental care were assessed by two geriatric dentists in all new long-stay patients (n = 725) admitted to a nursing home between January 2009 and December 2013. All patients were followed from admission until death or until they left the nursing home. Results At admission, dementia patients were significantly older than somatic patients; median [IQR] ages were, respectively, 85 [79–89] and 81 [76–87] (p = 0.001). In addition, edentulous patients were significantly older than patients with remaining teeth, 83 [79–89] versus 80 [74–86] (p = 0.001) years. Thirty percent of the admitted patients died within 12 months after admission. A small minority (20%) of the patients had their own teeth. In this group, poor oral hygiene (72%), caries (70%), and broken teeth (62%) were frequently observed. Edentulous patients were significantly more cooperative with treatment than patients with remaining teeth (64 versus 27%). Finally, significantly less professional dental care was given to edentulous patients when compared to patients with remaining teeth (median 90 [IQR 60–180] versus 165 [75–375] min). Conclusion When compared to edentulous elderly patients, patients with remaining teeth were younger at admittance, were more often non-cooperative, and had a poorer oral health and higher need for dental care. Clinical relevance It is important that health care workers ensure adequate oral health and dental care to frail elderly, especially for elderly with remaining teeth.

Abstract
AIM To assess the medium-term results of 8.5 mm implants supplied with a conventional platform-matched implant-abutment connection or a platform-switched design. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty patients with one or more missing teeth in the maxillary or mandibular posterior zone were randomly assigned for treatment with implants with a conventional (control group) or platform-switched (test group) implant-abutment connection. Follow-up visits were conducted 1 month, 1 year and 5 years after functional loading. Inter-proximal bone loss, assessed with standardized peri-apical radiographs, clinical parameters, survival of implants and satisfaction of patients were the outcome parameters studied. RESULTS After 5 years of loading, five of the 80 patients were lost to follow-up. The inter-proximal bone loss in the test group (0.38 ± 0.61 mm) was comparable to the bone loss in the control group (0.41 ± 0.47 mm; p = 0.201). Remarkably, bone loss has not progressed compared to the 1-year results. Implant survival, clinical parameters and satisfaction of the patients were favourable and comparable for the test and control group. CONCLUSION The 5-years results showed that inter-proximal bone resorption was minor and comparable around platform-matched and platform-switched implants, and implant survival, peri-implant health and patients' satisfaction were favourable.

Abstract
Skin carcinoma, particularly basal cell carcinoma, and its treatment can result in large defects of the hairy skull. A 53-year-old man is described who was surgically treated for a large basal cell carcinoma invading the skin and underlying tissue at the top of the hairy skull. Treatment consisted of resecting the tumor and external part of the skull bone. To protect the brain and to cover the defect of the hairy skull, an acrylic resin skull prosthesis with hair was designed to mask the defect. The skull prosthesis was retained on 8 extraoral implants placed at the margins of the defect in the skull bone. The patient was satisfied with the treatment outcome.

Abstract
Translucent acrylic templates have been used to indicate implant positions for implant-retained extraoral prostheses; however, this procedure can be challenging, as the acrylic templates have to be positioned onto reflected skin flaps. The fabrication of an acrylic-based colorless template or duplicating an existing prosthesis can facilitate the location of extraoral implants. Spots can be created on templates to indicate the optimal position of the implants. Afterward, punching the skin to the bone with a very thick sharp needle or a small sharp bur will mark the desired implant position on the bone before reflecting the skin.

Abstract
Sufficient buccal bone thickness (BBT) is important for an optimal aesthetic outcome of implant treatment in the aesthetic zone. The aim of the study was to assess BBT at dental implants placed in the aesthetic zone (incisor, canine or first premolar in the maxilla) (immediate or delayed, with or without immediate provisionalization) with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a function of time. Eighty patients were divided into 4 groups according to size of the buccal bony defect (<5 or ≥5 mm) after removal of the tooth, and timing of implant placement and provisionalization. CBCTs were made 1 month and 1 year after placement of the implant crown. BBT varied from 0.79 mm to 2.12 mm at 1 month and from 0.71 mm to 2.04 mm at 1 year. Change of BBT between 1 month and 1 year was negligible. This study concluded that BBT at dental implants in the aesthetic zone appears to be stable for immediate and delayed placed implants after placement of the definitive crown, independent of the size of buccal bone defect prior to implant insertion and timing of provisionalization.

Abstract
Single immediate implant replacement is accompanied by excellent survival rates and a favorable esthetic outcome. The objective of this report was to describe a surgical approach for removal of a buccal or palatally located impacted secondary canine, combined with extraction of the failing primary canine, and immediate placement and provisionalization of an implant. A window technique was applied for surgical removal of the impacted canine. The alveolar crest was preserved. After extraction of the primary canine, the implant was inserted with primary stability. Finally, the exposed surfaces of the implant were covered with a 1:1 mixture of autologous bone and Bio-Oss®. At the 1-year evaluation, both implants were successfully osseointegrated and in function. Esthetics were excellent. It is concluded that under premise of preservation of sufficient bone to achieve primary stability of the implant, removal of the canines can be combined with immediate placement and provisionalization of the implant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare a four- and six-implant maxillary overdenture after an observation period of 5 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty subjects with functional problems concerning their maxillary denture, who had ample bone volume in the anterior region to place four or six implants, were included and randomly assigned to either group. Implant and overdenture survival, clinical performance, marginal bone loss and patient satisfaction were assessed. RESULTS Forty-six patients completed the 5-year follow-up. One implant failed in the six implants group (99.2% survival) and none in the four implants group (100% survival). No overdentures had to be replaced during the observation period and the number of complications was limited. Clinical function was good, with no difference in clinical parameters between the groups. Mean marginal bone resorption was 0.50 ± 0.37 and 0.52 ± 0.43 mm in the four and six implant group respectively. CONCLUSION In patients with functional complaints of their maxillary denture, bar-supported overdentures on four implants in the anterior maxillary region were not inferior to overdentures supported by six implants after 5 years of function. Implant survival and patient satisfaction were high, clinical parameters favourable, bone loss and complications to the denture were minor in both groups (Clinical trial registration number: NTR2969).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to compare the composition of the periodontal microflora at baseline (T0) with the submucosal microflora at least 1 year after implant placement (T1) in periodontally healthy patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS For all 169 consecutive patients that visited our clinic during 1 year, we determined their periodontal parameters, implant mucosal index, and presence of implant calculus. At T0, self-reported smoking status was recorded and subgingival and submucosal biofilm samples were obtained and analyzed for the presence and numbers of selected periodontal pathogens. All measurements were repeated at T1. RESULTS One hundred twenty patients completed the study. Periodontal parameters were stable or had improved at T1. The total bacterial load was lower at implant sites (P < 0.05). The prevalence of Porphyromonas gingivalis was low at baseline, but at T1, detection rate and numbers were higher at implant sites compared to dentate sites. At T1, the frequency of detection of P. gingivalis (P = 0.01), Parvimonas micra (P = 0.018), and Fusobacterium nucleatum (P = 0.035) was higher in smoking patients (n = 23) than in non-smokers (n = 97). CONCLUSIONS Colonization of the submucosal peri-implant area is similar to the composition of subgingival microbiota. Smoking has a measurable effect on the colonization of implant-associated biofilms and may select for P. gingivalis, P. micra, and F. nucleatum. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The colonization of implants by well-known periodontal pathogens is very similar to that in normal dentition, also in a healthy cohort. Smoking status was related with the prevalence of periodontal pathogens where smokers harbored more often periodontal pathogens such as P. gingivalis, P. micra, and F. nucleatum.

Abstract
Background Single‐tooth replacement often requires a prefabricated dental implant and a customized crown. The benefits of individualization of the abutment remain unclear. Purpose This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to study potential benefits of individualization of zirconia implant abutments with respect to preservation of marginal bone level and several clinical and patient‐based outcome measures. Material and Methods Fifty participants with a missing premolar were included and randomly assigned to standard (ZirDesign, DentsplySirona Implants, Mölndal, Sweden) or computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) customized (Atlantis, DentsplySirona Implants, Mölndal, Sweden) zirconia abutment therapy. Peri‐implant bone level (primary outcome), Plaque‐index, calculus formation, bleeding on probing, gingiva index, probing pocket depth, recession, appearance of soft tissues and patients' contentment were assessed shortly after placement and one year later. Results No implants were lost and no complications related to the abutments were observed. Statistically significant differences between stock and CAD/CAM customized zirconia abutments could not be demonstrated for any of the operationalized variables. Conclusion The use of a CAD/CAM customized zirconia abutment in single tooth replacement of a premolar is not associated with an improvement in clinical performance or patients' contentment when compared to the use of a stock zirconia abutment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis comparing conventional removable partial dentures (RPDs) and implant-supported RPDs (ISRPDs) treatment in patients with an edentulous maxilla and a bilateral free-ending situation in the mandible. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty subjects were included. A new RPD was made and implant support was provided 3 months later. Treatment costs (opportunity costs and costs based on tariffs) were calculated. Treatment effect was expressed by means of the Dutch Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-NL49), a chewing ability test (Mixing Ability Index, MAI) and a short-form health survey measuring perceived general health (SF-36), which was subsequently converted into quality-adjusted-life-years (QALYs). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was the primary outcome measure of cost-effectiveness, comparing both treatment strategies. RESULTS The mean total opportunity costs were €981 (95% CI €971-€991) for the RPD treatment and €2.480 (95% CI €2.461-€2.500) for the ISRPD treatment. The total costs derived from the national tariff structure were €850 for the RPD treatment and €2.610 for the ISRPD treatment. The ICER for OHIP-NL49 and MAI using the opportunity costs was €80 and €786, respectively. When using the tariff structure, corresponding ICERs were €94 and €921. The effect of supporting an RPD with implants when expressed in QALYs was negligible; hence an ICER was not determined. CONCLUSIONS It is concluded that depending on the choice of outcome measure and monetary threshold, supporting an RPD with implants is cost-effective when payers are willing to pay more than €80 per OHIP point gained. Per MAI point gained, an additional €786 has to be invested.

Abstract
Severe hypodontia (≥6 missing teeth) is associated with aesthetic and functional problems. Its presentation is heterogenic, and a variety of treatment modalities are used resulting in different treatment outcomes. As there is currently no standard treatment approach for patients with severe hypodontia, the literature was systematically reviewed with the focus on treatment outcomes. Medline, Embase and The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched (last search 24 August 2015). This was completed with a manual search of the reference lists of the selected studies. To be included, studies had to describe dental treatment outcome measure(s) in patients with severe hypodontia; there were no language restrictions. The methodological quality was assessed using MINORS criteria. Twenty-one studies were eligible, but the diversity in type and quality did not allow for a meta-analysis; seventeen studies had a retrospective design; sixteen studies described the results of implant treatment. Treatment with (partial) dentures, orthodontics, fixed crowns or bridges was sparsely presented in the eligible studies. Implant survival, the most frequently reported treatment outcome, ranging from 35·7% to 98·7%, was influenced by 'location' and 'bone volume'. The results of implant treatment in severe hypodontia patients are promising, but due to its heterogenic presentation, its low prevalence and the poor quality of the studies, evidence-based decision-making in the treatment of severe hypodontia is not yet feasible, thus prompting further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to assess, with regard to marginal bone level (MBL), whether the outcome of immediate implant placement in bony defects in the esthetic zone was non-inferior to delayed implant placement after 1 year. METHODS Forty patients with a failing tooth in the esthetic zone and a labial bony defect of ≥5 mm after removal of a tooth were randomly assigned for immediate (n = 20) or delayed (n = 20) implant placement. Second-stage surgery and provisionalization occurred after 3 months of healing. Follow-up was at 1 month and 1 year after definitive crown placement. The study was powered to detect a difference in MBL of >0.9 mm. Buccal bone thickness, soft tissue peri-implant parameters, esthetic indices, and patient satisfaction were also assessed. RESULTS One year after definitive crown placement, MBL loss was 0.56 ± 0.39 mm mesially and 0.74 ± 0.51 mm distally for the immediate placement group and 0.51 ± 0.43 mesially and 0.54 ± 0.45 distally mm for the delayed placement group, respectively (not significant). Regarding differences in means, non-inferiority was observed after 1 year (difference in mean for immediate versus delayed: mesially 0.04 mm [95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.22 to 0.30 mm, P = 0.40]; distally 0.21 mm [95% CI = -0.10 to 0.51 mm, P = 0.58]). No significant differences in the other outcome variables were observed. CONCLUSIONS Immediate implant placement with delayed provisionalization was non-inferior to delayed implant placement with delayed provisionalization in labial bony defects of ≥5 mm regarding change in MBL. Although not powered for other outcome variables, no clinically relevant differences were observed in these variables.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different treatment strategies for the atrophied mandible are described in literature. The need for long term care and aftercare for these strategies is sparsely described, however. PURPOSE To prospectively assess the need for prosthetic and surgical care and aftercare of two implant treatment strategies for the atrophied mandible. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty edentulous elderly patients were randomly assigned according to a balanced allocation method to a treatment strategy: dental implants in combination with an augmentation procedure versus a nonaugmentation procedure. All surgical and prosthetic care and aftercare were scored from the first visit until 15 years after implant placement. RESULTS Twenty elderly patients completed the 15-year follow-up. As expected, the augmentation group needed significantly more surgical time than the nonaugmentation group (338 vs 145 minutes), but the need for prosthetic care and surgical/prosthetic aftercare was comparable. Implant survival was lower in augmented mandibles (88.7% vs 98.7%, p < .05). Aftercare mainly consisted of routine inspections; the need for prosthetic adjustments was minor. Surgical aftercare was hardly needed. CONCLUSION The only difference in the need for surgical and prosthetic (after) care was the extra time needed for performing augmentation surgery and the higher risk on implant loss in augmented mandibles. Otherwise, the need for care and aftercare was of the same magnitude. Thus, when applicable, nonaugmentation surgery is preferred as no general anesthesia is needed and the morbidity is low.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the 5-year clinical and radiographic outcome of implants with a dehiscent surface at implant placement. A total of 26 consecutive patients (mean age 61.6 years; SD 8.0 years) with at least one implant with a dehiscent implant surface of ≥ two thirds of the implant length on the labial side were included. All implants were placed to support a maxillary overdenture. The implants were placed with adequate primary stability and the dehiscent surface was covered with autologous bone, inorganic bovine bone and a resorbable membrane. Outcome measures were soft tissue conditions, change of radiographic marginal bone level and implant survival. Baseline data (at loading, T0) were compared with 1-year (T1) and 5-year (T5) post loading data. Of the 116 implants, 40 implants had no dehiscence, 16 had a buccal dehiscence < two thirds of the implant length, and 60 implants had a dehiscence ≥ two thirds. The peri-implant tissues were healthy and 5-year marginal bone changes were well within normal limits (-0.4 mm; range: -0.8 to -0.1). One implant was lost during the osseointegration period. Even when implants are placed with a dehiscence ≥ two thirds of the buccal implant surface, favorable 5-year peri-implant health can be achieved provided these dehiscences are covered with autologous bone, inorganic bone and a resorbable membrane, and there is good initial stability of the implants.

Abstract
AIM To assess whether outcome of immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization after 1 year was non-inferior to immediate implant placement and delayed provisionalization regarding Marginal Bone Level (MBL). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty patients with a failing tooth in the aesthetic zone were randomly assigned for immediate implant placement with immediate (n = 20) or delayed (n = 20) provisionalization. Follow-up was at 1 month and after 1 year. The study was powered to detect a difference in MBL of <0.9 mm. Apart from MBL, soft tissue peri-implant parameters, aesthetic indexes and patient satisfaction were assessed. RESULTS After 1 year, MBL changes were -0.75 ± 0.69 mesially and -0.68 ± 0.65 distally mm for the immediate group and -0.70 ± 0.64 and -0.68 ± 0.64 mm for the delayed group respectively (NS). Regarding differences in means, non-inferiority was observed after 1 year (mesially: Group A versus B: difference in mean 0.08 mm (95% CI -0.38 to 0.53, p = 0.71 distally: Group A versus B: difference in mean 0.09 mm (95% CI -0.37 to 0.56 mm, p = 0.66).No significant differences in the other outcome variables were observed. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that immediate placement and immediate provisionalization was non-inferior to immediate placement with delayed provisionalization. In addition, although not powered for these outcome variables, no clinically relevant differences in other outcomes were observed (www.isrtcn.com: ISRCTN57251089).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal defects resulting from tumor resection are preferably rehabilitated with implant-retained nasal prostheses. Aftercare, clinical outcome of the implants, and patients' satisfaction with implant-retained nasal prostheses were assessed. METHODS Twenty-eight consecutive patients needing total rhinectomy because of tumor resection between 1998 and 2013 were treated according to a standardized protocol with 2 implants in the nasal floor. Surgical and prosthetic aftercare was scored using patient records. Finally in 2014, skin reaction, peri-implant bone loss, and patients' satisfaction were assessed in all 13 still living patients. RESULTS In total, 56 implants were inserted (median follow-up, 35.1 months; interquartile range [IQR], 8.9-63.3). Implant survival was 96.4%. Implant survival was independent of radiotherapy. Peri-implant skin was healthy and patients' satisfaction high. Longevity of the prostheses was limited. CONCLUSION Rehabilitation of nasal defects resulting from total rhinectomy with implant-retained nasal prostheses, according to our protocol, resulted in high patient satisfaction and favorable treatment outcome. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the preoperative implant planning is increasing. A clear guideline is needed in which cases of CBCT is essential. PURPOSE In this study, two imaging modalities (panoramic radiograph and CBCT) are compared in preoperative implant planning in the severely resorbed mandible and the influence on the observers assessments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-four consecutive patients with bilateral edentulous regions in the mandible were included. The feasibility of implant placement in the premolar and molar region was judged by three observers on basis of casts either with a panoramic radiograph or a CBCT.Cohen's kappa, sensitivity and specificity rates, odds of agreement and disagreement as well as the odds ratios (ORs, ratio between odds of agreement and disagreement) were calculated per observer and overall for all observers assuming the majorities agreement as the prevailing opinion. RESULTS Overall outcome for premolar region revealed true-positive and true-negative rates of 90% and 0%, respectively, with Cohen's kappa (κ) = -0.04. The ORs for the three observers varied between 2.6 and 158.8, with an overall OR = 76.For the molar region, overall true-positive and true-negative rates were 65% and 22% respectively, with Cohen's κ = 0.68, representing a reasonable amount of agreement. Sensitivity and specificity as well as the ORs for individual observers were fairly consistent with an overall OR = 43. CONCLUSION Implant placement in the resorbed posterior mandible can be well assessed with a cast in combination with a panoramic radiograph in the vast majority of the cases. Misclassification amounts to approximately 10% to 13%. In all cases of misclassification, a critical bone height, or an unclear course of the mandibular nerve or a knife edge ridge was present. In these cases, the use of a CBCT is justified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sufficient buccal bone is important for optimal esthetic results of implant treatment in the anterior region. It can be measured with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), but background scattering and problems with standardization of the measurements are encountered. The aim was to develop a method for reliable, reproducible measurements on CBCTs. METHODS Using a new method, buccal bone thickness was measured on ten CBCTs at six positions along the implant axis. Inter- and intraobserver reproducibility was assessed by repeated measurements by two examiners. RESULTS Mean buccal bone thickness measured by observers 1 and 2 was 2.42 mm (sd: 0.50) and 2.41 mm (sd: 0.47), respectively. Interobserver intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.96 (95% CI 0.93 to 0.98). The mean buccal bone thickness of the first measurement and the second measurement of observer 1 was 2.42 mm (sd: 0.50) and 2.53 mm (sd: 0.49), respectively, with an intraobserver intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.93 (95% CI 0.88 to 0.96). The mean buccal bone thickness of the first measurement and the second measurement of observer 2 was 2.41 mm (sd: 0.47) and 2.52 mm (sd: 0.47), respectively, with an intraobserver intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.96 (95% CI 0.93 to 0.97). CONCLUSIONS Applying the methods used in this study, CBCTs are suitable for reliable and reproducible measurements of buccal bone thickness at implants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to analyze the accuracy of mandibular reconstruction using patient-specific computer-aided designed and computer-aided manufactured (CAD/CAM) reconstruction plates as a guide to place fibula grafts and dental implants in a one-stage procedure using pre-operative 3D virtual planning. METHODS Seven consecutive patients were analyzed retrospectively, the 3D accuracy of placement of the fibula grafts and dental implants was compared to the virtual plan. RESULTS Six out of seven flaps survived for an average follow-up time of 9.4 months. The outcome was compared to the virtual plan, superimposed on the mandible. For the fibula segments, the mean deviation (SD) was 3.0 (1.8) mm and the mean angulation (SD) was 4.2° (3.2°). For the implants, the mean deviation (SD) was 3.3 (1.3) mm and the mean angulation (SD) was 13.0° (6.7°). The mean (SD) mandibular resection plane deviation was 1.8 (0.9) mm. CONCLUSIONS A patient-specific reconstruction plate is a valuable tool in the reconstruction of mandibular defects with fibula grafts and dental implants. Implant angulation showed a greater deviation from the virtual plans in patients with a sharp ventral fibula rim, where the guide is removed after pilot drilling of the implants.

Abstract
Calvarial bone grafts are used for reconstruction of the maxilla or mandible to enable implant placement. The aim of this study was to assess the morbidity resulting from the use of calvarial bone grafts to reconstruct the maxilla and mandible. Thirty-six consecutive patients were included in this prospective study (14 men and 22 women; mean age 59 ± 8.2 years). Perioperative and postoperative complications related to harvesting of the calvarial bone were scored, as well as the occurrence of intraoral complications (average follow-up 25 ± 12 months). Perioperative exposure of the dura occurred in four patients and the graft broke during harvesting in five patients. With a change in the technique, these complications no longer occurred. Postoperative pain levels at the calvarial donor site were low (visual analogue scale (VAS) 1.9 ± 2.0 on day 1) and of short duration (5.2 ± 4.7 days to becoming pain-free). In all cases sufficient bone could be harvested to enable the placement of implants. The exposure of the dura and the intraoral complications were of no clinical consequence. Therefore, calvarial bone grafts appear to be promising for use in pre-implant intraoral reconstructions.
