New subperiosteal dental implants were designed to offer new options to edentulous patients with severe bone resorption for whom endosseous dental implants are not advisable. In our study, we aimed to design and manufacture subperiosteal dental impla...

The use of endosseous dental implants may become unfeasible in the presence of significant maxillary bone atrophy; thus, surgical techniques have been proposed to promote bone regeneration in such cases. However, such techniques are complex and may e...

Defects and bone loss in the maxilla and mandible pose significant challenges for dental rehabilitation. This paper focuses on complex cases of bimaxillary dental rehabilitation, where traditional dental implant protocols were not feasible in at leas...

Maxillectomies cause malocclusion, masticatory disorders, swallowing disorders and poor nasolabial projection, with consequent esthetic and functional sequelae. Reconstruction can be achieved with conventional approaches, such as closure of the maxil...

(1) Background: The present study was carried out to provide a state-of-the-art review of the prosthodontic factors related to customized subperiosteal implants (CSIs), and to offer clinical guidelines in this regard. (2) Methods: An expert consensus...

Introduction: Titanium alloys currently are the most used material for the manufacture of dental endosseous implants. However, in partially or totally edentulous patients, varying degrees of maxillary bone resorption usually occur, making the applica...

The MaI Implants® method offers a modern treatment option for specific patients who lack sufficient bone for traditional screw-based implants. The aim of the article is to use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to examine the behavior of a subperioste...

The main purpose of this study is to develop an understanding of how Porphyromonas gingivalis responds to subperiosteal implant surface topography. A literature review was drawn from various electronic databases from 2000 to 2021. The two main keywor...

(1) Background: The aim was to perform a literature review on customized subperiosteal implants (CSIs) and provide clinical guidelines based on the results of an expert consensus meeting held in 2023. (2) Methods: A literature search was performed in...

As an alternative to regenerative therapies, numerous authors have recently proposed bringing back subperiosteal implants. The aim of the study was to present our clinical experience with a subperiosteal jaw implant that needs minimal bone preparatio...

Recent reports on secondary restorations with subperiosteal implants have demonstrated promising results in terms of esthetic and functional restoration. We report the case of a reconstruction of a total maxillectomy with a custom-made subperiosteal...

Dental implants have always played an important role in dentistry and have been used to replace missing teeth since around 600 AD. They can be classified into three groups: endosteal, subperiosteal, and transosteal. Over time, different materials hav...

The newest technology allows the medical industry to manufacture innovative products such as milled titanium prosthodontic parts in an implant for a screw-retained suprastructure. In the literature, there are some articles on the clinical usage of su...

Background/Objectives: Subperiosteal implants (SPIs) were first used in the 1940s, but due to their complications and the rise of dental implants, they were discontinued. Thanks to new technologies and new materials, nowadays they are being used agai...

Nowadays, custom-made subperiosteal implants are emerging as a solution in all those cases where there is lack of healthy bone tissue to support endosseous implants. The development of innovative techniques has allowed the production of grids that pr...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the intraoral use of subperiosteally placed self-inflating tissue expanders for subsequent bone augmentation and implant integrity. Material and methods: A prospective, multic...
