Editorial: Nothing is more constant than change
Anita Wuttke, Editor-in-Chief
Almost 40 years after its scientific recognition, oral implantology has reached a high technical and scientific level. Now the pro- fession is increasingly looking beyond the implantological horizon. How can peri-implantitis be controlled? When and where should preventive measures be taken? How do practitioners deal with the ongoing “epidemic” of periodontitis when—as in Germany—changes in the legal framework make systematic long-term treatment no longer economically viable...

Clinical and scientifical differences between 1-piece and 2-piece ceramic dental implants – Clinical and scientifical differences
Curd Bollen1, Martin Jörgens2, Netherlands
Ceramic dental implants have long ceased to be hype, on the contrary, they can offer a significant addition to the daily dental implant practice. Not only their favourable aesthetics play a significant role, but also their ability to work completely metal-free is of added value, surely for patients with a proven allergy for grade 5 titanium, containing the hyperreactive components vanadium and aluminium.

A tsunami is hitting oral implantology
Dr Ronald Möbius, MSc, Germany
Peri-implantitis is characterised by inflammation and bone resorption. Reducing the inflammation is important; it is a prerequisite, the first step, but not the therapy of bone metabolism. If the bone metabolism is negative, this is reflected in bone resorption, which ultimately leads to implant loss.

Ceramic Healing Abutments: the fi rst step to harmonious soft-tissue healing
Author
Straumann Ceramic Healing Abutments: the fi rst step to harmonious soft-tissue healing These healing abutments for Straumann bone level implants enable aesthetics from the day of surgery and offer favourable conditions for soft-tissue attachment, thereby supporting a healthy peri-implant environment. Their wellproven zirconia material helps surgeons and prosthodontists who are looking for less plaque attachment (smoother surface compared to titanium) and they support soft-tissue healing from the day of surgery. In general, more favourable soft-tissue attachment around zirconia than around titanium can be observed, with blood circulation similar to that around a natural tooth, as well as a more mature and pronounced soft-tissue integration. This comes with an ease of use entailing aspiration security thanks to the integrated screw and a colour-coding to clearly identify the corresponding prosthetic platform...
