discussion this segmental ridge-split procedure with gradual bone expansion provides a quicker method wherein an atrophic ridge can be predictably expanded and eliminating the need for a second surgical site. this technique also shows that immediate implantation in split ridge of mandible can be performed. introduction narrow alveolar ridges especially in posterior mandibular remains a serious ...

In this study, we analyzed distribution of species the genus Gymnosporangium in mountain regions Uzbekistan, including Western Tien Shan and Pamir-Alay. Four (G. confusum, G. sabinae, fusisporum, turkestanicum) are reported for Uzbekistan. The telial hosts these rust fungi Juniperus, while aecial Uzbekistan representatives genera Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Sorbus, Pyrus (all Rosaceae). It has been...

  Objective: Alveolar ridge preservation in patients with inadequate bone volume is one treatment option for successful implant placement and can be done by using bone graft materials. On the other hand, Ceno Bone has been recently produced by Hamanand Saz Baft Kish Co. as a bone bioimplant of allograft origin. This study aimed to assess the clinical, histologic and histomorphometric results of...

background & aim: dental implants should be surrounded with at least 1mm bone. assessing ridge width is an important part to achieve this goal. the use of ridge mapping to assess bone levels available avoids some of the problems associated with ct-scanning. the aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of ridge-mapping compared to ct-scan in determination of bony ridge widths. methods & mate...

various dermatoglyphic parameters like finger print pattern, atd angle, absolute ridge count & ab, bc ,cd, and ad ridge counts were observed in 150 cases of congenital cardiac disease, comprising of 72 cases of ventricular septal defects (vsd), 60 cases of atrial septal defects (asd), 9 cases of coarctation of aorta (coa) & 9 cases of tetralogy of fallot’s (tof). same dermatoglyphic parameters ...

With this case report we demonstrate a new technique useful in augmenting alveolar ridges after resection procedures or atrophic loss of volume. The augmentation is done by means of a new osteogenic distractor (manufactured by ACE Surgical Supply Co., Inc., Brockton, MA, USA), the distraction procedure is according to Ilizarov's principles.
