Academic Editor: Andrew J. Ruys Received: 30 December 2014 / Accepted: 12 February 2015 / Published: 5 March 2015 Abstract: The goal of the current publication is to provide a comprehensive literature review on the topic of dental implant materials. The following paper focuses on conventional titanium implants and more recently introduced and increasingly popular zirconia implants. Major subtopics include the material science and the clinical considerations involving both implant materials and the influence of their physical properties on the treatment outcome. Titanium remains the gold standard for the fabrication of oral implants, even though sensitivity does occur, though its clinical relevance is not yet clear. Zirconia implants may prove to be promising in the future; however, further in vitro and well-designed in vivo clinical studies are needed before such a recommendation can be made. Special considerations and technical experience are needed when dealing with zirconia implants to minimize the incidence of mechanical failure.

    Community Dentistry and Public Health Dentistry—Roles and Current Discipline Issues

    FEATURED ARTICLE Hong Kong Dental Journal 2005;2:79-83 HK DJJ Community dentistry and public health dentistry—roles and current discipline issues Eli Schwarz *, KOD, DDS, MPH, PhD, FHKAM (Dental Surgery), FCDSHK, FACD ABSTRACT This paper aimed to describe the specialty of community dentistry and to highlight some of the knowledge base and research that makes it an indispensable part of modern dentistry. In addition, some important global issues will be discussed. Community dentistry is a varied and changing field. It derives its knowledge base and methods of inquiry from dental as well as socio-behavioral disciplines. The combination of these provides a fertile ground for being involved in decision-making at the highest levels of society, when choices are made and plans devised to improve the health care system that will eventually positively impact the oral health of the population. Community dentists will often be asked to translate incomprehensible research data into practical everyday preventive recommendations that are relevant to society’s financial constraints. The acceptance of this discipline as a specialty in its own right—as in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia—is a just recognition of the many contributions community dentistry makes to the dental profession, to society, and to the population as a whole. Introduction as the terminology to be consistent with the expected outcome of the College deliberations. Dentists who want to undergo specialty training in orthodontics will, without any difficulty, find a training Definitions and relationships program named as such anywhere in the world. In contrast, there is little agreement on what constitutes Community dentistry is the specialty of dentistry that community or public health dentistry.

The aim of this article is to review the currently available literature to provide an overview of the scientific principles of CAP application, its features, functions, and its applications in systemic and oral diseases, with a specific focus on its potential in implantology. In this narrative review, PubMed, Medline, and Scopus databases were searched using key words like “cold atmospheric plasma”, “argon plasma”, “helium plasma”, “air plasma”, “dental implants”, “implantology”, “peri-implantitis”, “decontamination”. In vitro studies demonstrated CAP’s potential to enhance surface colonization and osteoblast activity and to accelerate mineralization, as well as to determine a clean surface with cell growth comparable to the sterile control on both titanium and zirconia surfaces. The effect of CAP on biofilm removal was revealed in comparative studies to the currently available decontamination modalities (laser, air abrasion, and chlorhexidine).
