Open Letter to my Colleagues: Healing Abutment Reuse Advisory
To my fellow colleagues, Please be aware of the medical and legal implications of the reuse of implant components. It has come to my attention that the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) has launched an investigation and discovered a dentist on faculty has reused healing abutments. They are now notifying 184 patients that they may be at risk, stating that reusing healing abutments may increase the failure of implants and cause the patient swelling, inflammation, and severe

Titanium Corrosion Mechanisms in the Oral Environment
Corrosion of titanium dental implants has been associated with implant failure and is considered one of the triggering factors for peri-implantitis. This corrosion is concerning, because a large amount of metal ions and debris are generated in this process, the accumulation of which may lead to adverse tissue reactions in vivo. Dr. Wadhwani and colleagues investigated the mechanisms for implant degradation by evaluating the surface of five titanium dental implants retrieved d
