متن کاملEvaluation of Periodontal Indices Before and After Crown Lengthening Surgery
Introduction: Biological Width is needed to maintain the health of gingiva around teeth that need restoration. Crown Lengthening (CL) surgery can be used to prevent invading the BW by sub-gingival restoration. The aim of this study was to evaluate gingival indices before and after CL surgery. Materials and Methods: In this analytical-longitudinal study, 23 teeth of 18 patients referred to ...
متن کاملMuscle strength and knee range of motion after femoral lengthening
Background and purpose - Femoral lengthening may result in decrease in knee range of motion (ROM) and quadriceps and hamstring muscle weakness. We evaluated preoperative and postoperative knee ROM, hamstring muscle strength, and quadriceps muscle strength in a diverse group of patients undergoing femoral lengthening. We hypothesized that lengthening would not result in a significant change in k...
متن کاملLimb Lengthening by Implantable Limb Lengthening Devices
Implantable limb lengthening using noninvasively adjusted telescopic nails dates back to 1983. The newest technology is the Precice (Ellipse Technologies). A retrospective study of the first 65 Precice nails was carried out for the treatment of limb length discrepancy (unilateral) and short stature (bilateral). Successful lengthening was achieved in all patients. There were numerous distraction...
متن کاملThe effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on recovery of skeletal muscle after neurotization surgery in rat
Objective(s): When the nerve is injured near its entrance to the muscle belly, we cannot perform conventional methods. One useful method in such a situation is neurotization surgery. In this study, Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) implanted into the paralyzed muscle after neurotization surgery. These cells can stimulate axon growth and motor endplate formation, also prevent muscle atr...
