Objective: To evaluate long-term successes and failures of autotransplanted premolars, followed up to 30 years. Materials and methods: This study investigated a consecutive group of 100 patients treated with autotransplantation…
Aim: Incidence of osteoporosis in western countries is increasing due to demographic development. Osteoporosis is a potential risk factor for dental implants. There are different alternatives to induce osteoporosis in…
Aim: To analyse in vitro bioactivity of Ti6Al4V surfaces processed with Er:YAG laser at different parameters. Materials and methods: Ti6Al4V discs ( Ø = 7 mm) were used. Five treatment…
The surgical operations are associated with moderate to severe incidence of complications such as postoperative pain. Although there are several analgesic drugs, currently ketamine is used for postoperative pain control….
Aim: To analyse in vitro bioactivity of Ti6Al4V surfaces blasted with ZrO 2 /HA mixtures. Materials and methods: Ti6Al4V discs ( Ø = 7 mm) were used. Five treatment groups…
Aim: The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of dexamethasone given submucosally and intramuscularly on postoperative complications after removal of impacted third molars in a preliminary randomised prospective clinical trial….
Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy of local anesthetic combined with ketamine for the relief or prevention of postoperative pain, swelling, and trismus after…
Purpose: The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the clinical accuracy of virtually planned implants placed in the maxilla using a mucosa supported surgical template. Materials and methods:…
Aim: The aim of this randomised controlled clinical trial was to compare the incidence of bacteraemia in conventional and computer-assisted flapless implant surgery. Materials and methods: Following the recruitment of…
Introduction: Implants have evolved to a rapidly growing technique for replace the missing teeth. The total number of implants being placed has increased significantly over the years, as the prevalence…
Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the bone regenerative process after AG or HG used as graft to correct intraoral defects in human. Methods: Autologous bone from…
Introduction: Dry socket is a frustrating problem which every practising oral surgeon faces routinely. To add insult to injury it is also commonly associated with a stigma due to which…
Objectives: Aim of this study is to evaluate the neo-angiogenic response of host tissue towards two different bone grafts: Homologous Iliac Crest Graft (HG) and Autologous Calvaria Graft (AG), by…
Introduction: Few studies assess the outcome of bone grafts placed by surgical trainees as an adjunct to implant rehabilitation. This study aims to review the survival of bone grafting procedures,…
Introduction: The endodontic treatment today represents a great challenge, despite the fact that everyday new and innovative technologies facilitate this procedure; there are still cases where the resolution is not…
Introduction: Bone quality and quantity is most important issue for successful dental implantology. Using bone radiological and morphological investigation is possible to evaluate bone quality before implantation and during bone…
Objective: The “third molar model” is a superb surgical scientific prototype for investigating factors which influence acute pain particularly in a healthy young sample, devoid of premorbid conditions that typically…
Objectives: In 2007 a systematic review was published that evaluated the available evidence that barrier membranes prevent bone resorption in autologous bone grafts (Gielkens et al., IJOMI; 2007). It was…
Objectives: Continuation of anticoagulant therapy in patients undergoing dentoalveolar surgery is recommended because of the risk for thromboembolic events. Little information is available about the incidence of rebleeding in these…
To investigate retrospectively the incidence and risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery. Data were obtained from patients treated between January 2005 and June 2006 in…
