    Notes: This case report is focused on the histologic findings of bone tissue supplied with two different hydroxyapatites (HAs) used for maxillary sinus floor grafting in the same patient after various healing intervals. An insufficient unilateral sinus floor grafting with Bio-Oss® biomaterial was followed by an additional grafting procedure with Algipore® biomaterial performed 4 years later. Bone samples obtained during second-stage dental implantation contained the interesting combination of Bio-Oss®, a bovine anorganic bone substitute, and Algipore®, a porous algae-derived HA, in close vicinity, yet after different healing periods. Light microscopy exhibited satisfactory osseointegration of both grafting materials. However, Bio-Oss® biomaterial showed no evidence of substantial remodeling after a healing period of 4.5 years. On the other hand, Algipore® particles demonstrated signs of remodeling by being locally resorbed and partially replaced with newly formed bone already within 6 months.

    Notes: Abstract: The present study investigated the hypothesis that hydroxyapatite (HA), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), and a HA-gel coated on endosseous titanium (Ti) implants by spark discharging (SD) and dip coating would achieve predictable osseointegration without evident bioresorption of the coatings on the long term. A costal sheep model was used for the implantation of the HA/SD, HA/TCP/SD, and HA-gel/SD specimens, which were retrieved 6 and 12 months following implantation. HA and Ti coatings on implants obtained by conventional plasma spraying (HA/PS, Ti/PS) were used as controls. Microscopy showed that osseointegration was achieved from all types of implants. No evidence for bioresorption of the HA/SD, HA/TCP/SD, and HA-gel/SD coatings was present but cohesive failure with disruption of the coating/implant interface was seen. A statistical analysis of the histomorphometrical data showed no time-dependent effect, however. HA/PS coatings achieved significantly higher bone–implant contact (BIC) percentages of the total implant surface (toBIC) than the other types of coatings (P=0.01). If the BIC percentages were traced separately for implant portions placed into cortical and cancellous bone (coBIC and caBIC, respectively), detailed analysis showed that the caBIC values of HA-gel/SD and HA/PS coatings were significantly higher than that of the other types of coatings (P=0.01). CaBIC values were highly correlated with toBIC values (P〈0.001). The present study showed that the preparation techniques used produced thin, dense, and unresorbable coatings that achieved osseointegration. Compared with the control coatings, however, only HA-gel/SD coating can be recommended from the investigated preparation techniques for a future clinical use if a better coating cohesion is achieved.

    Notes: Abstract: The overall accuracy of a novel surgical computer-aided navigation system for placement of endosseous implants was evaluated. Five dry cadaver mandibles were scanned using high resolution computed tomography (HRCT). The position of four interforaminal dental implants was planned on the computer screen and transferred to the cadaver mandibles using VISIT, a surgical navigation software developed at the Vienna General Hospital. The specimens were HRCT-scanned again to compare the position of the implants with the preoperative plan on reformatted slices after matching of the pre- and postoperative data sets using the mutual information technique. The overall accuracy was 0.96±0.72 mm (range 0.0–3.5 mm). No perforation of the mandibular cortex or damage to the mandibular canal occurred. We conclude that computer-aided implant surgery can reach a level of accuracy where further clinical developments are feasible.
