Sub?crestal positioning of implants results in higher bony crest resorption: an experimental study in dogs
ConclusionsThe placement of implants into a sub?crestal location resulted in a higher vertical buccal bone resorption and a more apical position of the peri?implant mucosa in relation to the level of the bony crest at implant installation. Moreover, peri?implant hard?tissue dimensions were similar at sites prepared with either drills or Sonosurgery®. (Source: Clinical Oral Implants Research)

Effects of framework design and layering material on fracture strength of implant?supported zirconia?based molar crowns
ConclusionsA framework design with standardized layer thickness and adequate support of veneer by zirconia frameworks, as in the ANA and SUP designs, increases fracture resistance in implant?supported zirconia?based restorations under conditions of chewing attrition. Indirect composite material and porcelain perform similarly as layering materials on zirconia frameworks. (Source: Clinical Oral Implants Research)

Accumulated knowledge and prevention practices in oral health
This text begins by reflecting on health promotion and equity/ inequity. In health, inequity is understood as a political concept that has moral implications and that is committed to social justice. A discussion follows on some issues regarding the risk and prevention of diseases, still considered a hegemonic practice, and lack of experience in oral health-care, bearing in mind the concept of vulnerability. The risk is probabilistic and involves the mathematical chances of acquiring a disease in a certain group, whereas vulnerability addresses the potential of acquiring or not acquiring a disease in a certain environment. The need for systematic studies on determinants is stressed, with the ultimate goal of improving health and reducing inequities, and with the concern and political intent…
