Few cases of spontaneous bone regeneration after extensive resection the jaw have been reported, but there are not too many reports that show nerve regeneration. In this case, we report and healing in a 67-year-old female patient. She was diagnosed with medication-related osteonecrosis due to previous bisphosphonate use. After segmental resection, stabilization achieved using reconstruction pla...

background mandibular continuity defects occur after tumor resection, maxillofacial injury, or osteomyelitis. despite the current availability of a plethora of treatment modalities, bone substitutes, and various clinical adjuncts, an exact reconstructive recapitulation of large bony defects continues to be beyond reach. in this clinical pilot study, we report a novel method for reconstruction o...

Reconstruction using osteocutaneous fibular free flap after radical resection of oral cancer with mandibular invasion and segmental mandibulectomy is the gold standard treatment. Recent technological advances have made virtual surgical planning threedimensional printing incorporating computer-aided design modeling possible, thereby shortening ischemic time enabling more sophisticated reconstruc...

Abstract Mandibular resection is a procedure to treat diseases or disorders of the mandible. Mandibulectomy indicated for involving Plate exposure common postoperative complication mandibular followed by reconstruction with plate fixation. Objective: This study was obtain data regarding number exposed cases after madibular indications ameloblastoma at KSM Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, RSUP Dr...

BACKGROUND The reconstruction of mandibular defects after giant ameloblastoma resection is one of the most challenging problems facing reconstructive surgeons. Mandibular resection has been associated with a poor quality of life (QOL), particularly in adolescent patients reconstructed with a free fibula flap. This study aims to evaluate QOL outcomes in adolescent patients who have had mandibula...

Our aim was to evaluate the histological association of mandibular solid and multicystic ameloblastoma with the inferior alveolar nerve, both in situ and in segments of the nerve that had been removed separately, to assess the feasibility of preserving the nerve during resection of mandibular ameloblastomas. In this prospective histological examination of 13 resected hemimandibulectomy specimen...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of dener-vation of the pulp organs of teeth, particularly on the odontoblasts and their processes. Therefore, resection of the inferior alveolar, cervical sympathetic, or a combination of both types of nerves supplying the mandibular incisor teeth of New Zealand white rabbits was performed and the results compared to adjacent , unaltered teeth...

Free fibula flap is routinely used for mandibular reconstructions. For contouring the flap, multiple osteotomies should be shaped to reproduce the native mandibular contour. The bone segments should be fixed using a reconstructive plate. This plate is usually manually bent by the surgeon during surgery. This method is efficient, but during reconstruction it is complicated to reproduce the compl...

SUMMARY The reconstruction of mandibular defects has always been of great concern, and it still represents a challenge for head-and-neck reconstructive surgeons. The mandible plays a major role in mastication, articulation, swallowing, respiration, and facial contour. Thus, when undertaking mandibular reconstruction, restoration of both function and cosmetics should be considered as the measure...

Aggressive intraosseous lesions obliterate structures, including maxilla and mandible, which may require surgical management followed by prosthetic rehabilitation. Loss of continuity of the mandible destroys the balance and symmetry of the mandibular function, leading to altered mandibular movements and deviation of the residual fragment towards the resected side. Prosthetic management of surgi...
