Prosthetic, orthodontic and implant-supported rehabilitation of five maxillary anterior teeth with alveolar bone loss

ABSTRACT Introduction: Treatment of maxillofacial injuries is complex and requires the establishment of a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis and correct treatment planning. Objective: The objective of this case report was to describe the re-treatment of a 27-year-old woman who was involved in a seve...

Maxillary sinus floor pneumatization and alveolar ridge resorption after tooth loss: a cross-sectional study

Abstract This is a cross-sectional study that aimed to estimate maxillary sinus floor (MSF) pneumatization in single missing tooth of posterior maxilla, by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). CBCT images were analyzed bilaterally and divided into 2 groups: edentulous site (EdS) - edentulous singl...

Stability and bone loss around submerged and non-submerged implants in diabetic and non-diabetic patients: a 7-year follow-up

Abstract To evaluate peri-implant bone loss (PIBL) and stability around submerged and non-submerged dental implants in patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Thirty-five T2DM and non-diabetic (NT2DM) patients were included in this study. Demographic data were recorded using a question...

Short implants versus longer implants with maxillary sinus lift. A systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract This study compared the survival rate of dental implants, amount of marginal bone loss, and rates of complications (biological and prosthetic) between short implants and long implants placed after maxillary sinus augmentation. This systematic review has been registered at PROSPERO under the numb...

Agreement, correlation, and kinetics of the alveolar bone-loss measurement methodologies in a ligature-induced periodontitis animal model

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (5), 2017
Abstract Periodontal research involves the use of animal models to better understand the biological processes of periodontal diseases and the potential of new or existing therapies. Currently, ligature-induced periodontitis in rats is the main model used in periodontal research, in this model, alveolar b...

Root length and alveolar bone level of impacted canines and adjacent teeth after orthodontic traction: a long-term evaluation

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (1), 2017
Abstract Objective The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the long-term effects of orthodontic traction on root length and alveolar bone level in impacted canines and adjacent teeth. Material and Methods Sample consisted of 16 patients (nine males and seven females), mean initial age 11 ...

Suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 expression during LPS-induced inflammation and bone loss in rats

Abstract This study aimed to characterize the dynamics of suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS1) expression in a rat model of lipopolysaccharide-induced periodontitis. Wistar rats in the experimental groups were injected three times/week with LPS from Escherichia coli on the palatal aspect of the first...

Different engagement of TLR2 and TLR4 in Porphyromonas gingivalis vs. ligature-induced periodontal bone loss

Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the roles of different Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling in Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis)-induced and ligature-induced experimental periodontal bone resorption in mice. Wild-type (WT), TLR2 knockout (KO), TLR4KO, and TLR2&4 KO mice with C57...

Influência dos níveis de densitometria mineral óssea na perda óssea alveolar e parâmetros clínicos periodontais em mulheres na pós-menopausa

Rev. AMRIGS; 51 (4), 2007
Objetivo: Verificar a relação da influência do nível de densitometria mineral óssea (DOM) na perda óssea alveolar e parâmetros clínicos periodontais em mulheres na pósmenopausa. Métodos: Em um estudo seccional, foram avaliadas 23 mulheres na menopausa, com idade variando de 44-61 anos de idade....

Colocación de un implante único en un paciente diabético tipo II: presentación de un caso
Placement of a single implant in a type II diabetic patient: report of a case

Rev. Círc. Argent. Odontol; 28 (188), 2000
Esta presentación de caso sugiere que pacientes con diabetes tipo II pueden ser considerados para una terapia con implantes dentales, siempre y cuando los controles de higiene bucal y el estado de su glucemia fueran correctos. Se colocó un implante en un paciente de 52 años con diabetes tipo II. A los...
