Purpose: Distraction osteogenesis has been applied for augmentation of atrophic alveolar ridge. The aim of this study is to evaluate the resorption rate of the augmentated alveolar ridge after implant…
As the authors have reported before, bone regeneration from periosteums was observable in a short term on rat models of mandibular condyle defect. Bone regeneration started from 3 days after…
Objectives: The objective this study is validate the use of nanoindentation tests in research and to assess the quality of newly formed bone in sheep mandibles submitted to Distraction osteogenesis…
Objective: The premaxillary distraction osteogenesis was used for treatment of maxillary retrusion in cleft lip and palate patients. In this paper, we would like to compare the result of the…
Background and aims: Distraction osteogenesis is a valuable treatment option used in severe alveolar insufficiencies caused by several reasons such as tooth loss, trauma and pathologies. In this presentation three…
Introduction: Vertical lengthening by distraction osteogenesis has been widely used for reconstruction of dentoalveolar defects. However if bone height between the alveolar crest and the anatomical structures is insufficient, performing…
The osteogenesis distraction is an alternative that today corrects transverse deficiencies in upper and lower jaw, though its major use has been spread in the sagital and vertical dimension in…
Anchorage control and reducing the total treatment time has always been fundamental in treatment of orthodontic cases. The recently introduced, dental distraction osteogenesis, technique has considerably reduced the treatment time…
Distraction osteogenesis has evolved as a mainstream surgical technique for lengthening and augmentation of the hypoplastic mandible. However, one of the unfavorable results of mandibular distraction is development of postdistraction…
Introduction: Distraction Osteogenesis (DO) in patients with lower facial clefts is rarely reported. Standard osteotomies are difficult and prone to significant relapse in such patients. Aim: This presentation introduces novel…
