Why it matters for dental
2-year data on 3D-printed porous titanium implants can inform practice owners and implant dentists choosing materials for single-tooth restorations, potentially affecting long-term survival rates and patient counseling.
Key points
- Retrospective study covers 3D-printed porous titanium implants supporting single crowns with 2-year follow-up in the Journal of Dentistry.
- Authors Carlo Mangano, Henriette Lerner, and Francesco Guido Mangano provide clinical performance metrics relevant to implantologists and specialists evaluating newer manufacturing methods.
- Results may influence material selection decisions for practices offering implant-supported crowns, particularly where osseointegration and long-term stability are key concerns.
- Publication date November 2026 indicates this is forthcoming evidence rather than currently available data for clinical decision-making.
