BACKGROUND The goal of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the prognosis of minimal invasive horizontal ridge augmentation (MIHRA) technique using small incision and subperiosteal tunneling technique. METHODS This study targeted 25 partially edentulous patients (10 males and 15 females, mean age 48.8 ± 19.7 years) who needed bone graft for installation of the implants due to alveolar b...

background: alveolar ridge preservation could be performed immediately following tooth extraction to limit dimensional changes of alveolar process due to bone resorption. the aim of this study was to compare the clinical and histologic outcomes of socket preservation using two different graft materials; deproteinized bovine bone mineral (dbbm) and demineralized freeze‑dried bone allograft (dfdb...

Alveolar preservation can minimize bone resorption after tooth removal and additional topical antibiotics might also be considered. The goal of this study was to observe alveolar with albumin gentamycin-coated allograft compared unfilled control sockets mandibular third molar removal. Twenty-two patients were involved, 11 in the group test group. CBCT analysis micromorphometric performed. After...

The alveolar cleft has not received as much attention as labial or palatal clefts, and the management of this cleft remains controversial. The management of alveolar cleft is varied, according to the timing of operation, surgical approach, and the choice of graft material. Gingivoperiosteoplasty does not yet have a clear concensus among surgeons. Primary bone graft is associated with maxillary ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate nasal morphology, symmetry, and nostril shape in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate following mixed-dentition alveolar bone grafting. DESIGN Prospective stereophotogrammetric study. SETTING Hospital-based. PATIENTS Thirty-nine patients with a history of repaired unilateral cleft lip and palate who received an iliac crest alveolar bone graft were recruited ...

Alveolar bone grafting is a standard method for treating alveolar cleft. To ensure the best outcome, improving the arch form as well as soft tissue quality in the area around the cleft is recommended. In this study, 11 patients who presented with alveolar cleft and collapsed maxillary arch were treated in the following sequence: transpalatal distraction osteogenesis followed by soft tissue surg...

Background: Tooth extraction is a common dentistry procedure followed by alveolar bone resorption. Trauma that occurs in tooth will induce exaggerating inflammatory process, leads to increased Bone resorption can be minimized administering combination of Nigella sativa extract and bovine graft. The material expected increase the woven area formation speed up remodeling process. Purpose: To dete...

Scientific literature describes autogenous bone as the gold standard among graft materials for alveolar reconstructive procedures. Alveolar ridge augmentation has been clinically achieved with different forms of autogenous bone, including autogenous cortical bone particulate (ACBP). However, few histologic studies demonstrating the biologic potential and healing dynamics following the use of AC...

BACKGROUND The habit of inserting foreign objects into body cavities is seen in children and in adults with intellectual disability. Usually, the foreign objects cause chronic inflammation and local tissue destruction, which give rise to symptoms. Diagnosis at an asymptomatic stage is uncommon when the history is not suggestive. We describe a rare case where a foreign object was misdiagnosed as...

background and aims. autogenous onlay bone grafting is a common procedure for alveolar ridge augmentation. it has been suggested that the amount of healed bone after this technique would be significantly less than the initial quantity. the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the various parameters influencing the outcome of ridge augmentation procedures. materials and me...
