normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa microsoftinternetexplorer4 introduction : alveolar bone level is changed due to the balance between bone formation and resorption. radiographic examination has an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases. this study was performed to compare the accuracy of vertical bitewing and periapical radiography in anterior mandibular ...

alveolar ridge resorption has long been considered an unavoidable consequence of tooth extraction. while the extent and pattern of resorption is variable among individuals, there is a progressive loss of ridge contour as a result of physiologic bone remodeling. even today, with best modalities of tooth preservation, there is a group of elderly individuals who do not benefit from modern preventiv...

Purpose: The aim of the study was to determine whether fixed orthodontic appliances cause root and alveolar bone resorption and to compare the precision of orthopantomography and computerized tomography in detection of resorption process. Methods: Eighty-five patients scheduled for orthodontic therapy with fixed appliances were included in prospective self-controlled study. Before and after ort...

Alveolar bone resorption is one of the most important facts in denture construction. Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) causes alveolar bone resorption, and morphologic measurements are the most frequent methods to identify bone resorption in periodontal studies. This study has aimed at evaluating the effect of Andrographolide (AND) on alveolar bone resorption in rats induced by Pg. 24 healthy male ...

Alveolar ridge resorption is a natural consequence of teeth extraction, with unpleasant aesthetic and functional consequences that might compromise future oral rehabilitation. To minimize the biological alveolar resorption, several surgical procedures have been designed, so-called preservation (ARP) techniques. One important characteristic concomitant use biomaterial in ARP. In past decade, aut...

Obesity induces gingival oxidative stress, which is involved in the progression of alveolar bone resorption. The antioxidant effect of hydrogen-rich water may attenuate gingival oxidative stress and prevent alveolar bone resorption in cases of obesity. We examined whether hydrogen-rich water could suppress gingival oxidative stress and alveolar bone resorption in obese rats fed a high-fat diet....

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of alveolar vertical distraction osteogenesis and autogenous bone grafting in terms of bone gain, bone resorption, and implant survival and success rates and investigate the relationship between bone gain and resorption after alveolar vertical distraction osteogenesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search was done using MEDLINE, EM...

Periodontal diseases are multifactorial, caused by polymicrobial subgingival pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia. Chronic periodontal infection results in inflammation, destruction of connective tissues, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone resorption, and ultimately tooth loss. Enoxacin and a bisphosphonate derivative of enoxacin (bis...
