Oral Territorial Neurovascular Considerations in Implant Surgery
The anatomy of the intrabony course of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) is very important for dentists, neurologist, radiologists and pathologists to aid in diagnosis, treatment, planning surgery, and the application of local anesthesia (Polland et al., 2001). IAN damage negatively affects the quality of facial sensibility and the patient’s ability to translate patterns of altered nerve activi...
متن کاملThe Bimodal Nature of Neurovascular Coupling
Neurons, by virtue of their complex and continuously changing signaling roles in brain, must be able to regulate access to energy in order to maintain their ability to communicate meaningful frequency-encoded information. This is accomplished by release of neurotransmitters to astrocytes that in turn signal the vascular system to increase cerebral blood flow (CBF). This process has been termed ...
متن کاملShortened dental arch as a solution for maxillary sinus proximity in dental implant restoration
This case report demonstrates the benefit of using the shortened dental arch (SDA) design for a comprehensive implant-supported restoration and the avoidance of the complexities of implant placement near the maxillary sinus. The SDA concept as a treatment option is encouraging in terms of function, patient satisfaction, and cost-effectiveness.
متن کاملAberrations Causing Neurovascular Damage in the Anterior Maxilla during Dental Implant Placement
When dental implants are being considered for placement in the maxillary central incisor region, proximity to the nasopalatine canal and its contents needs to be accounted for. The morphology of the canal changes with age. The availability of CBCT has allowed the in-depth analysis of this important variable anatomy. However, an associated important anatomical structure can be easily overlooked:...
متن کاملDeveloping a 3D Reconstruction System for Surgical Planning in Neurovascular Surgery (In press)
Introduction: Neurovascular lesions may cause death or disability. Some of them are operable, but surgical approaches to these lesions are complicated and proper access is crucial. A few numbers of these surgeries occur in every resident education period and their experience for operating these lesions may be quite inadequate. Using new technologies like 3D-restructure of vascular lesion images...
