Panoramic and periapical radiographies are widely used in maxillofacial surgery in the preoperative planning for the extraction of third molars. In this study the accuracy of these two radiographic techniques…
The calvarial bone is highlighted as a good donor area for large reconstructions of atrophic jaw for subsequent rehabilitation with implant-supported prosthesis. The aim of this study was to observe…
Background: Different surgical closure techniques after removal of IMTM have been studied. Inconsistencies among the literature and clinical opinions have been detected. No systematic reviews about this topic have been…
The severely resorbed maxilla presents a challenge for the maxillofacial surgeon and the restorative dentist planning implant restorations. The Zygomatic implant, as introduced by Brånemark, allows for the surgical placement…
Introduction: Oral rehabilitation with implant-supported prostheses requires precise planning by means of clinical and imaging. For implants placement according to the needs of prosthetic restoration, a quantity and quality of…
Background: Mandibular bone resection cause extensive defects in bone, oral mucosa, muscles and teeth. Reconstruction of the maxillofacial region has been a challenge owing to the complexity of function and…
Ambulatory surgery includes all the surgical procedures of varying complexity that allows patients to return home the same day of surgery. Patients with coagulopathy diseases can benefit from this circuit….
Implantodontology has been through a process of evolution, and, nowadays there are many ways to reestablish aesthetic and function to edentulous patient. But one of the aspects that stand as…
Introduction: Assessment of the topography of the mandibular foramen has a significant cognitive and utilitarian meaning. Numerous aspects of the location of MF are known and used at anesthesia performance…
Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the predictability of bone formation in the maxillary sinus using CGF a graft material. Materials and methods: 10 patients were…
Impacted teeth, due to systemic or local factors, represent a frequent problem in most populations. The authors present two techniques for conservative intervention: the apicotomy and the double traction (E….
Aim: The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of two surface modifications on osseointegration of two different implant surfaces with identical macro design and to compare the…
Introduction: Successful osseointegration of dental implants requires sufficient bone surrounding the implant. Restoration of considerable hard tissue defects can be achieved using a variety of techniques. Bone grafts are widely…
Aims: A thin facial bone (<2 mm) overlying maxillary anterior teeth is prone to resorptive processes after extraction and immediate implant placement. A thin bone contributes to risk of bone…
Introduction: A series of procedures have been described, for treating atrophic edentulous maxilla, which provide adequate bone volume for the placement of dental implants. However, such treatment options include additional…
Patients with severe atrophic maxillas are a challenging for oral rehabilitation using dental implants. There are some surgical options in those cases, like zigomatic implants and use of extra-bucal donor…
As techniques rapidly grow, numerous graft materials also developed, therefore bone defect considered to be irrepairable became possible to be managed by using these materials which were applied to these…
The correct and precise understandings of the applied anatomy, physiology, and pathology about the maxillary sinus cavity can provide the successful procedures for the maxillary sinus surgery. Above all, it…
The mechanical and chemical surface modifications of titanium (Ti) due to corrosion attack into the oral cavity may be an important factor for lipopolysaccharide (LPS) affinity and thereby could contribute…
One of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry is the rehabilitation of the severely resorbed maxilla. The resorptive process has not only rendered the volume of bone available for implant…
