Platelet concentrates for surgical use are innovative tools of regenerative medicine, and were widely tested in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Unfortunately, the literature on the topic is contradictory and the published data are difficult to sort and interpret. In bone graft, implant and reconstructive surgery, the literature is particularly dense about the use of the various forms of Platele...

In the past, complex rehabilitations, such as rehabilitation of an entire arch with a prosthesis on implants, were reserved for few patients who presented optimal state health interventions long and traumatic. Nowadays, use devices Magnetic Mallet laser allows us to perform same in less time minimally invasive way. The case report we present shows how fragile patient, subjected insertion eight ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, severity and variables influencing postoperative pain and other sequelae in children undergoing dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia. METHODS Healthy children scheduled for dental rehabilitation having treatment on only primary teeth were included in the study. General anesthesia protocol was standardized, and patien...

PURPOSE This study aimed to develop a classification of edentulous jaws for use as a diagnostic tool during implant-prosthodontic treatment planning. MATERIALS AND METHODS The morphology of 200 fully edentulous alveolar ridges (100 maxillae, 100 mandibles) was assessed with cone beam computed tomography. Generic implants (length: 8 mm; diameter: 4.1 mm) were used. To develop the classificatio...

Purpose. The aims of this study were to assess the treatment outcome of immediately loaded full-arch fixed bridges anchored to both tilted and axially placed implants in the edentulous maxilla and to evaluate the incidence of biological and prosthetic complications. Materials and Methods. Thirty-four patients (18 women and 16 men) were included in the study. Each patient received a maxillary fu...
