In addition, oral hygiene is a very important factor related to inter-implant space.
Therefore, if a double-implant placement is used, it has to be placed diagonally to create a larger inter-implant space and accommodate international implant sizing [1].
Our findings illustrate that DAPS are stable in the caudal spine, are infiltrated by cells from the peri-implant space and that infiltration is expedited by providing additional routes for cell migration.
For descriptive analyses, we group women into four categories based on their baseline method use: non-user, long acting method users (IUD and implants), spacing method users (injectable, oral contraceptive pill, male and female condoms, and LAM), and traditional method users.

In contrast to the abovementioned disadvantages related to implants, orthodontic space closure is a viable and safe procedure that could provide better long-term results [9].
As prophylaxis these implant interior spaces should be sealed.
Although each of these methods is a viable treatment option, implant insertion and space closure are more popular among clinicians.
In contrast to the classic biomaterial approach, tissue engineering is based on the understanding of cell driven tissue formation, and aims to generate new functional tissues, rather than just to implant non-living space holders.
In the sinus lift procedure, bone graft and dental implants serve as space holders under the elevated sinus membrane, and new bone is formed in a secluded space under the elevated sinus membrane, according to the principle of guided tissue regeneration [5].
Wouldn't that be like surgically implanting a galactic space engine to the part of your brain that makes you produce the fun chromosome, which then would launch your brain out of the front of your head spraying everybody around you with blood, skin and splintered bone fragments?
