BACKGROUND Recent advances have suggested that periodontitis (PD), the paradigm of chronic infection in dental pathology, shares several pathogenic pathways with cardio- and cerebro-vascular disorders (CVD), based on inflammatory mediators including IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α. AIM To assess pro-inflammatory biomarkers (C-reactive protein - CRP, IL-6) in serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in pat...

INTRODUCTION Treatment of subcondylar fractures of the mandible is one of the most controversial aspects in the field of maxillofacial traumatology. This controversy centers on the positive and negative aspects of open and closed approaches for the treatment of this kind of fractures. Open techniques lead to good reduction and osteosynthesis, but have a high risk of injury to the facial nerve a...

The purpose of the study was to increase effectiveness diagnosis and treatment patients with endo-periodontal lesions. Materials methods. conducted from 2019 2022 on basis Department Therapeutic Dentistry Azerbaijan Medical University. 41 lesions who were not burdened somatic pathology combined endodontic periodontal examined. Radiation diagnostic methods, in particular orthopantomography intra...

Most common techniques for alveolar bone augmentation are guided bone regeneration (GBR) and autologous bone grafting. GBR studies demonstrated long-term reabsorption using heterologous bone graft. A general consensus has been achieved in implant surgery for a minimal amount of 2 mm of healthy bone around the implant. A current height loss of about 3-4 mm will result in proper deeper implant in...

BACKGROUND Cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) has been widely used in dental implanting. However, the local hospitals usually don't have access to CBCT due to the cost and medical investment, especially in West of China. The doctors in local hospitals have to make reasonable dental planting using orthopantomography (OPG) to reduce risks. Therefore, it is clinically meaningful to determine...

Supernumerary teeth in humans are considered as those addition to the normal series of deciduous or permanent dentition. Distomolars forth molars that erupt behind wisdom found 0,18–3,8% modern population, but quite rare compared other supernumerary teeth. Odontologic studies ancient and contemporary populations allow not only evaluate health state, life style diet people, explain etiology, cli...

INTRODUCTION Some studies have demonstrated that platelet rich fibrin (PRF) is a healing biomaterial with a great potential for bone and soft tissue regeneration, without any inflammatory reactions and may be used alone or in combination with bone grafts, promoting hemostasis, bone growth, and maturation. PRF appears as a natural and satisfactory aid in bone regenerative surgery in elderly pati...
