Statement of the problem: Quadrangular zygoma implants establishes an anterior maxillary canti-lever or a pseudo-Class III maxillo-mandibular relationship, secondary to posterior implants positioning into the zygoma, producing severe detrimental axial…
Objective: To describe and characterize the set of signs and symptoms used to evaluate postoperative complications in third-molar surgery. Methods: Descriptive study. A search was made on reference database ISI-Web…
Statement of the problem: The remaining bone after partial mandibular reconstruction for dental implants placement and rehabilitation is usually limited in terms of height and width, causing the implants to…
Objective: To characterize and describe the bibliometric profile of publications about third-molar as a model for study of maxillofacial surgery in the last decade. Method: Descriptive study. A search was…
Introduction: Atrofic maxillas do not allow dental rehabilitation, it is therefore necessary to perform a previous structure reconstruction that allows the installation of implants. The purpose of this work is…
Traditionally, when placing dental implants, a flap is elevated to better visualize the bone site that will receive the implants. However, flap elevation is associated with some degree of morbidity…
This study describes a successful case report of a severely resorbed mandible rehabilitated with autogenous free bone grafts from the iliac crest and dental implants with five year follow-up of…
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to adjust a multivariate model to explain each of the response variables for the occurrence of surgical difficulty during the removal of…
Introduction: Occlusal alterations are report by many patients submitted to the removal of third molars, postoperatively. Thus, it is interesting to assess whether this possible movement to the distal of…
Introduction: Wrong site surgery is a preventable adverse event; however, such events do occur. Although there is a safety check mechanism in place for all outpatient minor oral surgical procedures…
Introduction: Mandibular reconstruction techniques have limitations, particularly when a bone segment of the mandibular angle has been lost. When angled reconstruction plates are used, the stress of muscle action may…
Introduction: One of the main purposes in Oral Implantology for bone regeneration is to maintain or to improve the height and thickness of alveolar bone after tooth extraction as well…
With the loss of teeth begins a process of resorption of the alveolar process already well known by dentists, greatly hampered the rehabilitation of patients with total prostheses or implants….
The rehabilitation treatment in patients with severely atrophic maxilla has always challenged the skills and expertise of most experienced professionals in dentistry. The physiological process of alveolar bone resorption after…
Microvascular free fibula transfer is accepted as the gold standard in jaw reconstruction following ablative surgery. Apart from fibula, other free bone flaps are also used in select situations. With…
Introduction: During restoration of hypoplastic maxillary edentulous alveolar bone, the use of bone graft materials have gain importance for improving bone formation and healing, resulting in better osseous support for…
Aim: Evaluate sand-blasted-acid attached and resorbable blast media surfaces with cell culture test. Material and methods: Twenty-four grade-4 titanium discs (12-SLA, 12 RBM) at 5 mm diameter were used. Human…
Purpose: The osteotome and the sinus lift are representative methods to overcome the lack of posterior maxillary alveolar bone height. But Lateral approaches are primarily recommended for lower than 5…
Introduction: The upper lateral incisors are the second absent just after the second premolars in a 12.3%; may be an unique case or as part of a syndrome. Objective: Literature…
The process of bone resorption and pneumatization of the maxillary sinus are phenomena related to tooth loss in the posterior–superior area, which at present increase the difficulty mentioned rehabilitation area….
