Abstract Large antral pseudocysts of the maxillary sinus (APCs) may hamper the elevation of the Schneiderian membrane during sinus grafting and may impair osteo-meatal complex patency after sinus augmentation. Therefore,…
Abstract The loss of multiple teeth or trauma to the anterior maxilla often results in a deficient ridge width for prosthetic tooth rehabilitation. This study evaluated the use of titanium…
Abstract Angiogenesis is critical for peri-implant bone regeneration and osseointegration. Endothelial cells (ECs) play an important role in angiogenesis during the early stage of bone formation. Nerve growth factor (NGF)…
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the influence of implant diameter and length on primary stability in artificial bone blocks. In total, 240 implants of various diameters…
Abstract The correction of bone defects can be performed using autogenous or alloplastic materials, such as beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). This study compared the changes in bone volume (CBV) after maxillary…
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate growth characteristics of parotid gland Warthin’s tumours. The medical records of 134 patients who had a cytological or histopathological diagnosis of…
Abstract The association between XRCC6/Ku70 , an upstream player in the DNA double-strand break repair system, and the risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) was examined. In this case–control study, 176…
Abstract Communication between the surgeon and the radiation oncologist is improved with the use of virtual models of the final tumour resection, combining three-dimensional imaging and conventional clip marking with…
Abstract The surgery-first approach (SFA), without presurgical orthodontic treatment, has become favoured in the treatment of dentomaxillofacial deformities. This approach has been applied in our institution since 2012. The purpose…
Abstract The availability of computers and advances in imaging, especially over the last 10 years, have allowed the adoption of three-dimensional (3D) imaging in the office setting. The affordability and…
