Objective: The objective of this study is to compare the 2.0-mm 3-dimensional curved angle strut plate with 2.0-mm non-compression miniplate in the fixation of mandibular angle fractures. Design: This prospective…
The maxillofacial trauma has become a branch of great importance of the Maxillofacial Surgery specialty. The prevalence of trauma in the facial skeleton has been increasing in our population due…
Objective: Angle is a common site for mandibular fractures. Fractures of the mandible are classified as favorable and unfavorable depending on the fracture plane and muscles acting on these fragments….
Objectives: For reconstruction of cranial defects in children preferably the original bone flap or autogenous bonegrafts are used. When autogenous bone is not available, an alternative has to be found….
Purpose: Pattern and aetiology of maxillofacial injuries varies from one country to another and even within the same country depending on prevailing socio-economic, cultural and environmental factors. Material and methods:…
Introduction: This study provides a large statistical sample to investigate patterns of mandibular injury in a major urban trauma center. The purpose of this study is to allow identification of…
The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a numerical method for modeling static and dynamic simulations displaying a high power analysis. The method gives approximate numerical solutions to equations that predict…
Introduction: The pattern of facial trauma in the west of Ireland is distinctively different to that of the United Kingdom, and other published series on facial trauma. The epidemiology of…
Introduction: Patients presenting severe maxillary atrophy represent a challenge in terms of predictability, treatment time and complications. Prof. Branemark introduction of the zygoma fixtures to by-pass the alveolar area and…
Aim: Distant metastases as a hard symptom for malignancy of the tumor disease are found in 8–20% of oral cancer cases, but only 45% of them are confirmed by autopsy….
Digital photography increasingly developed to be an essential facility to support the clinical work. More than in any other speciality it is relevance is unsurpassed in the field of maxillo-facial…
This state of the art lecture will give an overview of recent research and clinic in dentoalveolar traumatology aimed at Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, who often are the only specialists…
One of the common causes for development of dentofacial deformities and also for relapse following orthognathic surgery involves condylar resorption. Most often the pathological process creating condylar resorption (in either…
Patients suffering sleep apnea, severe mandibular AP and transverse deficiency, TMJ arthrosis and syndromic mandibles have been treated with limited success with traditional surgery. Distraction osteogenesis offers new possibilities, unlimited…
This prospective study selected 21 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery for bite correction. Study selection included preexisting CBCT condylar resorption and class II malocclusion. No patient was dropped from the…
In the last five years we have corrected nearly 750 cases of severe malocclusion by bimaxillary surgery. 76% were Angle class II patients, 5% had an open bite, 19% were…
Ideopathic condylar resorption is most often associated with orthognathic surgery but it may also occur in relation to conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosis or be the result…
