Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether l -methyl-[ 11 C]-methionine (MET) positron emission tomography (PET) allows the prediction of outcomes in patients with head and neck…
Abstract Neuropilin 2 (Nrp2) plays an important role in regulating lymphangiogenesis. Nrp2 expression in early tongue cancer was investigated to predict lymph node metastasis and the long-term prognosis. The relationships…
Abstract The purposes of this study were to determine: (1) whether an observer’s perception of the correct anatomical alignment of the head changes with time, and (2) whether different observers…

Abstract The aims of this in vivo study were to evaluate the impact of needle bevel design on patients’ pain perception and the mechanical deformation of the needle tip after…
Abstract A retrospective cohort study was performed to assess the clinical usefulness of combination assessment using computed tomography (CT) images in patients undergoing third molar extraction. This study included 85…
Abstract The aim of this case series study was to illustrate the bone lid technique implemented using piezoelectric surgery to access mandibular alveolar bone diseases and to assess the clinical…
Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the risk of bleeding after tooth extraction in patients taking aspirin or clopidogrel. This case-crossover study evaluated patients taking aspirin (80…
Abstract This systematic review provides an overview of studies on autotransplantation techniques using rapid prototyping for preoperative fabrication of donor tooth replicas for preparation of the neo-alveolus. Different three-dimensional autotransplantation…
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the application of delayed expansion of the alveolar ridge in dental implantation. This method avoids the need to harvest autogenous bone…
Abstract The aim was to evaluate the aesthetic and functional outcomes in patients with a nasal prosthesis after radical tumour resection. A questionnaire with 15 domains was created to evaluate…
Abstract A better understanding of factors that can lead to papilla formation or recession, such as the type of site where the implant was placed, is of fundamental importance to…
Abstract The aim of this study was to systematically review the influence of the local delivery of bisphosphonates on the osseointegration of titanium implants in humans. A search of health…
Abstract Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint, which represents 3% of all dislocated joints reported in the body, occurs when the mandibular condyle is displaced anteriorly beyond the articular eminence. Although…
Abstract The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of four non-surgical conservative treatment methods for temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The study group comprised 40 patients with unilateral TMD…
Abstract Myofascial pain of the muscles of mastication is a common temporomandibular disorder. Patients unresponsive to conservative treatment modalities pose a therapeutic challenge to the treating clinician. The efficacy of…
