Objetivo: revisar a literatura sobre os diferentes tipos de derivados de plaquetas autólogas e o desempenho clínico do uso do sticky bone para aumento ósseo horizontal de rebordo. Materiais e métodos: Para realização dessa revisão foram realizadas buscas nas bases de dados PubMed, Google Scholar e Web of Science, utilizando os seguintes descritores: "platelet-rich fibrin" AND "sticky bone" OR "alveolar bone grafting" AND "sticky bone" OR "guided bone regeneration" AND "sticky bone" AND "alveolar ridge augmentation" OR "Alveolar ridge augmentation" AND "sticky bone". Foram incluídos artigos publicados em inglês, que abordavam conceitos relacionados aos agregados plaquetários e a regeneração óssea guiada para aumento ósseo horizontal de rebordo utilizando fibrina rica em plaquetas associada à enxertos ósseos (sticky bone). Resultados: Após avaliação dos estudos encontrados foram selecionados 11 artigos sobre o uso do sticky bone para aumento horizontal de rebordo. Para compor este trabalho foram selecionados também 14 estudos de revisão e artigos associados ao tema. Por ser de fácil aplicação e obtenção, muitos autores têm estudado as aplicações cirúrgicas do sticky bone e os resultados demonstram que o aumento horizontal do rebordo utilizando essa técnica pode ser realizado de forma previsível. Conclusão: apesar de haver estudos promissores sobre o uso do sticky bone, falta evidência na literatura sobre seu sucesso clínico. Assim, para compreender o potencial regenerativo desta técnica são necessários um maior número de estudos randomizados, com diferentes materiais de enxerto e protocolos padronizados de obtenção do sticky bone.(AU)

Objective: to review the literature on the different types of autologous platelet derivatives and the clinical performance of using sticky bone for horizontal bone ridge augmentation. Materials and methods: In order to conduct this review, it was conducted searches in the PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases using the following descriptors: "platelet-rich fibrin" AND "sticky bone" OR "alveolar bone grafting" AND "sticky bone" OR "guided bone regeneration" AND "sticky bone" AND "alveolar ridge augmentation" OR "Alveolar ridge augmentation" AND "sticky bone". It included articles published in English that addressed concepts related to platelet aggregates and guided bone regeneration for horizontal bone augmentation using platelet-rich fibrin associated with bone grafts (sticky bone). Results: After evaluating the studies found, were selected 11 articles on the use of sticky bone for horizontal ridge augmentation. To compose this work, 14 review studies and articles associated with the topic were also selected. Due to its ease of application and availability, many authors have explored the surgical applications of sticky bone, and the results indicate that horizontal ridge augmentation using this technique can be predictably performed. Conclusion: while there are promising studies on the use of sticky bone, the literature lacks evidence regarding its clinical success. Therefore, to fully understand the regenerative potential of this technique, further randomized studies are needed, involving different graft materials and standardized protocols for obtaining sticky bone.(AU)

Two-stage alveolar bone grafting for nasal floor reconstruction in adult cleft patients / 华西口腔医学杂志

Alveolar cleft is one of the key links of cleft lip and palate reconstruction due to its close relationship with tooth and jaw coordination and nasolabial deformity. The alveolar bone graft repairs the hole in the gum ridge and stabilizes the bone arch, providing better support for the base of the nose and new bone for the roots of the developing teeth to grow into. Unfortunately, bone graft failure in the traditional way, even among minor clefts, bony hypoplasia, or absence that affects the nasal base and piriform rim, is common. Two-stage alveolar bone grafting, which has advantages in addressing the underlying skeleton and deficiency, could be an optional surgical procedure for nasal floor reconstruction in adult patients with a broad alveolar cleft.

Comparison of the effectiveness and safety between autologous bone grafts and xenografts for the treatment of alveolar bone defects: overview of systematic reviews using frisbee methodology / Comparación sobre la efectividad y seguridad entre los injertos óseos autólogos y xenoinjertos para el tratamiento de defectos óseos alveolares: overview de revisiones sistemáticas con metodología frisbee

Introduction: Due to the extensive number of studies developed on periodontal pathologies and the clinical need generated to correct bonvze defects, we have carried out an Overview of systematic reviews using the FRISBEE methodology. Material and Methods: Through this study we expect to bridge the knowledge gap generated regarding the clinical question on the effectiveness of autologous bone substitutes and xenografts in maxillary and mandibular bone defects. Results: For this study, we carried out a systematic search in Epistemonikos and PubMed, we included 3 systematic reviews and 5 primary studies included in these reviews to extract their data. We analyzed data using RevMan 5.4. and GRADEpro. Assessed outcomes included: bone gain [MD 0.06 mm lower (0.26 lower to 0.14 higher)] and bone resorption [MD 0.03 mm higher (0.12 lower to 0.18 higher)], where no significant differences were found between the study groups. The certainty of the evidence was moderate for both outcomes. Bone length and bone density outcomes were not measured or reported in the included studies. Conclusion: We concluded that there are no significant clinical differences between the application of autologous bone grafts and xenografts for bone defects correction for the assessed outcomes, therefore, these biomaterials should be applied at the discretion of the clinician and according to the needs and preferences of patients.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Alveolar Bone Preserved with Autologous Teeth Graft. Osteopontin Expression and its Regulatory Functions in Preserved Alveolar Ridge / Análisis Inmunohistoquímico de Hueso Alveolar Preservado con Injerto Dental Autólogo. Expresión de Osteopontina y sus Funciones Regulatorias en el Reborde Alveolar Preservado

The present study investigated the healing response of 12 fresh post-extraction alveolous grafted with particulate autologous teeth to achieve preservation of the post-extraction alveolar ridge. The objective is to elucidate the osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties of the autologous dental graft used as a bone substitute in the alveolar ridge preservation technique. Five patients were included, with at least one hopeless tooth and in need of extraction and preservatio n of the ridge, to receive in the same place a dental implant in prosthetic replacement. In the first surgical stage, dental extractions and preservation of the alveolar ridge were performed, using the teeth extracted and processed with an automatic system as bone substitutes. In the second surgical stage, an incisional bone biopsy was performed in each grafted site, the bone beds were recapitulated in a drilling protocol that allowed the placement of the dental implant, and the harvested bone specimens were prepared for analysis. The histological results of the bone biopsies in all cases showed remnant particles of the dental graft, made up of dentin, partially resorbed, with irregular superficial edges and in close contact with newly forme d bone in transition to mature lamellar bone, in which well differentiated osteocytes were observed. The immunohistochemical results showed a moderate positive expression of osteopontin at the edges of the integrated teeth particles, inside the peritubular dentin space and at the osteodental contact interfaces. In conclusion, the evidence from the study shows that the autologous dental graft is a biocompatible bone substitute, that provides an osteoconductive scaffold that promotes bone cell adhesion and migration for local osteogenesis and that it is associated with moderate in situ expression of osteopontin, which showed a high affinity with mineralized dental tissue, suggesting osteoinductive properties in situ.

El presente estudio investigó el resultado cicatrizal de 12 alvéolos frescos postextracción injertados con dientes autólogos particulados para lograr la preservación del reborde alveolar postextracción. El objetivo es dilucidar las propiedades osteoconductivas y osteoinductivas del injerto dental autólogo utilizado como sustituto óseo en la técnica de preservación de reborde. Se incluyeron 5 pacientes, con al menos un diente sin esperanza y con necesidad de extracción y preservación del reborde, para recibir en el mismo sitio un implante dental en sustitución protésica. En la primera etapa quirúrgica, se realizaron las extracciones dentales y la preservación del reborde alveolar, utilizando como sustituto óseo los dientes extraídos y procesados con un sistema automático. En la segunda etapa quirúrgica, se realizó una biopsia ósea incisional en cada sitio injertado, los lechos óseos fueron recapitulados en un protocolo de fresado que permitió la colocación del implante dental y los especímenes óseos recolectados fueron preparados para su análisis. Los resultados histológicos de las biopsias óseas en todos los casos mostraron partículas remanentes del injerto dental, conformadas por dentina, parcialmente reabsorbidas, con margenes superficiales irregulares y en estrecho contacto con depósitos de hueso de reciente formación en transición hacia hueso laminar maduro, en el cual se observaron osteocitos bien diferenciados. Los resultados inmunohistoquímicos mostraron una expresión positiva moderada de osteopontina en los bordes de las partículas del injerto dental integrado, al interior del espacio peritubular dentinario y en las interfases de contacto osteodental. En conclusión, la evidencia del estudio muestra que el injerto dental autólogo es un sustituto óseo biocompatible, que provee un andamio osteoconductivo promotor de la adhesión y migración de las células óseas para la osteogénesis local y que está asociado a la expresión modera in situ de osteopontina, la cual mostro una alta afinidad con el tejido dental mineralizado, sugiriendo propiedades osteoinductivas in situ.

Ultra-slow drilling to obtain autologous bone graft in implantological rehabilitation. A forgotten technique with great advantages

ABSTRACT: Osseointegrated implants are currently the prosthetic treatment by predilection in the oral cavity when dental organs have been lost. Bone deficiency interferes with the placement of these prosthetic attachments; To solve this lack of bone tissue in alveolar ridges, autologous, homologous or heterologous bone grafting techniques are proposed. The ultra-low speed drilling without irrigation, it is possible to collect autologous bone at the time of preparing the surgical site before placing the dental implant, which provides the best properties for bone regeneration without the need for another wound or more morbidity for the patient. We describe our ultra-low speed drilling protocol step by step, obtaining autologous bone from the same surgical site to rehabilitate small bone defects around the implant reducing comorbidities and surgical times.

Homogenous Bone Grafts as an Alternative in Oral Rehabilitation Treatments with Dental Implants / Los Injertos Óseos Homogéneos como una Alternativa en los Tratamientos de Rehabilitación Oral con Implantes Dentales

ABSTRACT: The present study aims to describe, through a case report, the functioning of bone grafts, where they are obtained including bone banks and the different dental areas in which it is used. A 50-year.old female patient HMR, sought the postgraduate college of dentistry CECAPE for oral rehabilitation. The initial clinical examination revealed the absence of several dental elements in both the maxilla and mandi ble, bone resorption in the entire maxillary extension where there was an absence of elements in the anterior region and the presence of a torus in the palatal region. Initial tomographic examinations of the maxilla and mandible were performed, looking for the best conduct regarding the diagnosis and planning of the case. After the clinical and radiographic examinations was performed, and the diagnosis was reached, it was determined as a treatment for oral rehabilitation of the maxilla, bone grafting and an Implant-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis and for the mandible a Dento-muco-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis. Dental treatments and oral rehabilitation from the use of bone tissues and bone grafting have become commonly used. Procedures that would normally lead to failure started to increase the percentage of successes due to the use of these biomaterials. The use of bone grafts in dentistry has been shown to be a very effective and useful resource, considering its great applicability in bone reconstructions in different areas of dentistry.

RESUMEN: El presente estudio tiene como objetivo describir a través de un informe de caso, el funcionamiento de los injertos óseos, donde se obtienen, incluidos los bancos de huesos y las diferentes áreas dentales en las que se emplea. Una paciente HMR, de 50 años de edad, asistió el centro universitario de posgrado CECAPE para rehabilitación oral. El examen clínico inicial reveló la ausencia de varios dientes tanto en el maxilar como en la mandíbula, la resorción ósea en toda la extensión maxilar donde había ausencia de dientes en la región anterior y la presencia de un torus en la región palatina. Se realizaron exámenes tomográficos iniciales del maxilar y mandíbula, buscando la mejor conducta con respecto al diagnóstico y la planificación del caso. Después de los exámenes clínicos y radiográficos realizados y el diagnóstico listo, se determinó como un tratamiento para la rehabilitación oral del maxilar, el injerto óseo y una prótesis removible implantosoportada y para la mandíbula una prótesis parcial removible dento-muco-soportada. Los tratamientos dentales y la rehabilitación oral a partir del uso de tejidos óseos y el injerto óseo se han utilizado comúnmente. Los procedimientos que normalmente conducirían al fracaso comenzaron a aumentar el porcentaje de éxitos debido al uso de estos biomateriales. Se ha demostrado que el uso de injertos óseos en odontología es un recurso muy eficaz y útil, considerando su gran aplicabilidad en las reconstrucciones óseas en diferentes áreas de la odontología.

Reparación atípica de alveolo en rehabilitación estética implantológica / Atypical socket repair in aesthetic implant rehabilitation

ABSTRACT Introduction: In implant therapy, adequate alveolar bone volume and favorable alveolar ridge architecture are important considerations to obtain positive functional and esthetic rehabilitation. Objective: Describe prosthodontic treatment in an extraction socket with advanced palatal bone resorption secondary to a root fracture through the use of an implant-supported single fixed prosthesis. Principal case data: 39-year-old male patient, without systemic disease, and completely dentate with no occlusal parafunction. Radiographic examination showed the presence of advanced palatal bone resorption, almost total loss of the palatal plate in all its extension secondary to a root fracture of the maxillary left lateral incisor and a large osteolytic area on the palatal aspect of the root. The procedure consisted in extraction of the maxillary left lateral incisor and eventual regeneration of the palatal plate using a resorbable collagen membrane, which was adapted to the bone defect. Then, particulate cortical bone allograft was compacted into the site. Four months after grafting the extraction site, an implant was placed. Six months after implant placement osseointegration was confirmed, and after several stages restoration with a zirconium dioxide abutment and a full ceramic crown was obtained and followed up for 2 years. Conclusions: Regeneration of the palatal plate was possible through the use of particulate cortical bone allograft and a resorbable collagen membrane adapted to the bone defect and placed in position to recreate the palatal plate. This allowed installation of an implant 4 months after the procedure. This technique allowed esthetic and functional results using a single fixed prosthesis(AU)

RESUMEN Introducción: Para la terapia con implantes, un volumen adecuado de hueso alveolar y una arquitectura favorable de la cresta alveolar son consideraciones importantes para obtener una rehabilitación funcional y estética positiva. Objetivo: Describir el tratamiento protésico en una cavidad de extracción con reabsorción ósea palatina avanzada secundaria a una fractura de la raíz, mediante el uso de una prótesis fija única con soporte de implante. Datos principales del caso: Paciente masculino de 39 años, sin enfermedad sistémica, completamente dentado sin parafunción oclusal. El examen radiográfico mostró la presencia de una reabsorción ósea palatina avanzada, una pérdida casi total de la placa palatina en toda su extensión secundaria a una fractura de la raíz del incisivo lateral superior izquierdo y una gran área osteolítica en el aspecto palatino de la raíz. El procedimiento consistió en la extracción del incisivo lateral superior izquierdo y la regeneración posterior de la placa palatina mediante una membrana de colágeno reabsorbible, que se adaptó al defecto óseo. Luego, el aloinjerto de hueso cortical particulado se compactó en el sitio. Cuatro meses después de injertar el sitio de extracción, se colocó un implante. Seis meses después de la colocación del implante, se confirmó la osteointegración y, después de varias etapas, se obtuvo una restauración con un pilar de dióxido de circonio y una corona de cerámica completa, la que fue seguida durante dos años. Conclusiones: La regeneración de la placa palatina fue posible mediante el uso de aloinjerto de hueso cortical particulado y una membrana de colágeno reabsorbible adaptada al defecto óseo y colocada en una posición para recrear la placa palatina. Esto permitió la instalación de un implante 4 meses después del procedimiento. Con esta técnica se obtuvieron resultados funcionales y estéticos utilizando una única prótesis fija(AU)

Incidentally detected odontoma within a dentigerous cyst

Odontoma is an asymptomatic slow-growing odontogenic tumor. It is usually found by chance in the maxilla or mandible on radiography, or when it deforms the adjacent teeth. It is commonly found in patients who are 30 years of age or younger. We report our encounter with an odontoma within a dentigerous cyst found incidentally in a 56-year-old man. He presented with abnormal fullness in the right infraorbital area of the cheek. During the evaluation of the mass, we incidentally detected the odontogenic tumor within a dentigerous cyst in the patient's maxilla. Under general anesthesia, complete surgical drainage of the infraorbital cystic mass was performed. Enucleation of the odontogenic tumor and a bone grafting from the iliac bone were also performed. The final diagnosis was odontoma. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no sign of recurrence of the tumor. In case of odontogenic tumors, even in old patients, it is important to suspect an odontoma. When odontoma accompanies a dentigerous cyst, surgical excisional biopsy should be performed to rule out malignancy. In case of a large bony defect after enucleation, autogenous bone grafting is essential for reconstruction.

Oroantral fistula after a zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture

Zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures account for a substantial proportion of trauma cases. The most frequent complications of maxillofacial fracture treatment are infections and soft tissue flap dehiscence. Postoperative infections nearly always resolve in response to oral antibiotics and local wound care. However, a significant infection can cause a permanent fistula. A 52-year-old man visited our clinic to treat an oroantral fistula (OAF), which was a late complication of a ZMC fracture. Postoperatively, the oral suture site dehisced, exposing the absorbable plate. However, he did not seek treatment. After 5 years, an OAF formed with a 2.0× 2.0 cm bony defect on the left maxilla. We completely excised the OAF, harvested a piece of corticocancellous bone from the iliac crest, inserted the harvested bone into the defect, and covered the soft tissue defect with a buccal mucosal transposition flap. Although it is necessary to excise OAFs, the failure rate is higher for large OAFs (> 5 mm in diameter) because of the extensive defect in the underlying bone that supports the overlying flap. Inappropriate management of postoperative wounds after a ZMC fracture can lead to disastrous outcomes, as in this case. Therefore, proper postoperative treatment and follow-up are essential.

Preservación del reborde alveolar con un aloinjerto de hueso liofilizado expuesto al medio bucal: informe de un caso / Alveolar ridge preservation technique with uncovered freeze-dried bone allograft: report of a case

Objetivo: Presentar un caso clínico en el que se utilizó un aloinjerto de hueso liofilizado como relleno en una técnica de preservación de reborde alveolar (TPRA), dejándolo expuesto al medio bucal. Caso clínico: Una paciente acudió a la consulta privada por dolor en la pieza 3.5, en la que se evidenciaba una fractura radicular. Con indicación de extracción y colocación de implante, se realizó una tomografía de haz cónico en la que se observó la ausencia parcial de la tabla vestibular. Se decidió realizar una TPRA y la colocación diferida del implante. Se efectuó la extracción atraumática y se colocó un aloinjerto de hueso liofilizado dentro del alvéolo hasta el nivel gingival. Se suturó con un punto colchonero cruzado, dejando el injerto expuesto. La cicatrización no mostró complicaciones. Tras 6 meses, se realizó una nueva tomografía, y luego de determinar el volumen óseo disponible, se colocó un implante. Conclusión: La TPRA empleada mostró ser favorable para la preservación del reborde ante la falta parcial de la tabla ósea vestibular, y permitió la colocación del implante de manera diferida en su ubicación tridimensional correcta (AU)

Aim: To report a case in which a freeze-dried bone allograft was used for an alveolar rigde preservation technique (TPRA), and was left uncovered. Case report: The patient arrived to consultation due to pain located in tooth 3.5, that presented a root fracture. Following extraction and implant placement indication, a cone beam tomography was performed and partial absence of buccal bone was found. The decision to perform a TPRA and the delayed placement of the implant was taken. An atraumatic extraction was performed and a freeze-dried bone allograft was placed inside the socket up to the gingival level. A crossed mattress point suture was used leaving the graft exposed. The healing did not show any complication. After 6 months a new tomography showed enough available bone volume, so an implant was placed. Conclusion: The TPRA that was used showed to be favorable for the preservation of the alveolar ridge when buccal bone deficiency is present. It made the delayed placement of the implant in its correct three-dimensional location possible (AU)

A radiographic evaluation of graft height changes after maxillary sinus augmentation

PURPOSE: The aims of the present study were to quantitatively assess graft height changes after sinus lift procedures and to analyze the factors that influenced graft height changes, including the residual bone height before surgery, surgical approach, and tooth type. METHODS: A total of 39 maxillary posterior implants placed during a simultaneous sinus lift procedure were evaluated. Panoramic radiographs of all patients were taken immediately after implant installation and at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years. To analyze graft height changes over time, we measured the distance between the implant platform and the base of the grafted sinus floor at 3 locations. The radiographs were analyzed by a single examiner. RESULTS: Graft height tended to decrease over time, and a statistically significant difference was observed at 2 years compared to baseline (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in graft height change according to the surgical approach or tooth type. For residual bone height, a statistically significant difference in graft height change was found between those with 4–7 mm of residual bone height and those with ≥7 mm (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Graft height after sinus lift procedures significantly decreased at 2 years compared to baseline after sinus augmentation. Further studies should be done with controlled variables, and prospective studies with 3-dimensional images are needed to clarify the factors that influence graft height changes.

Comparing osteogenic effects between concentrated growth factors and the acellular dermal matrix

Abstract Concentrated growth factor (CGF) is an autogenuous product that contains highly concentrated number of platelets and can be derived from venous blood by selective centrifugation. It has been speculated that local growth factors in human platelets (insulinlike growth factor, IGF; transforming growth factor, TGF-b; platelet derived growth factor, PDGF) would enhance healing of grafts and also counteract resorption. The osteogensis effect of CGF and acellular dermal matrix (ADM) for alveolar cleft defects was evaluated in this study. Twenty alveolar cleft patients were divided randomly into two groups. One group underwent guided bone regeneration (GBR) using acellular dermal matrix film combined with alveolar bone grafting using iliac crest bone grafts (GBR group), while the other group underwent alveolar bone grafting combined with CGF (CGF group). Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were obtained at 1 week and 6 months following the procedure. Using Mimics 17.0 software, the bone resorption rate and bone density improvement rate were calculated and compared between the two groups. Although not significant between ADM and CGF in bone resorption rate, the bone density improvement in cases with CGF(61.62 ± 4.728%) was much better than in cases with ADM (27.05 ± 5.607%) (p = 0.0002). Thus, CGF could be recommended to patients with alveolar cleft as a better choice.

Bone grafting for alveolar ridge reconstruction. Review of 166 cases. / Enxerto ósseo para reconstrução óssea alveolar. Revisão de 166 casos

ABSTRACT Objective: to investigate the predictive factors of failure in bone grafts for alveolar ridge augmentation and implant surgery. Methods: we reviewed the charts of 166 patients operated between 1995 and 2014. A total of 248 grafting procedures were performed. We submitted the data to the binomial test at 5% significance. Results: grafts to gain width of the alveolar ridge (65.32%) were more frequent than sinus lifting (p<0.0001) and the number of grafts to the posterior maxilla (48.8%) was greater than in other regions (p<0.01); 6.04% of the grafts were lost. The losses in anterior (p<0.0309) and posterior (p<0.0132) maxilla were higher than in the mandible. There were 269 ​​implants installed in the grafted areas, of which only 4.83% were lost. The number of implants lost (4.51%) in areas of onlay grafts was not statistically higher than those placed after sinus lifting (2.63%, p<0.2424). Losses were greater in the anterior (53.85%) and posterior (38.46%) maxilla than in the mandible (p<0.031). Regarding patients' age, 76.92% of the lost grafts (p<0.006) and 80% of the lost implants (p<0.001) were installed in patients over 40 years. Conclusion: failure rate was higher both for grafts and dental implants in the maxilla and in patients over 40 years of age.

Conclusão: maior taxa de falhas foi observada para enxertos e implantes dentários realizados em maxila e em pacientes com mais de 40 anos de idade.

Comparative, randomized, double-blind clinical study of alveolar ridge preservation using an extracellular matrix-based dental resorbable membrane in the extraction socket

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to radiographically and clinically compare the effect of extracellular matrix (ECM) membranes on dimensional alterations following a ridge preservation procedure. METHODS: One of 2 different ECM membranes was applied during a ridge preservation procedure. A widely used ECM membrane (WEM; Bio-Gide, Geistlich Biomaterials, Wolhusen, Switzerland) was applied in the treatment group and a newly developed ECM membrane (NEM; Lyso-Gide, Oscotec Inc., Seongnam, Korea) was applied in the control group. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and alginate impressions were obtained 1 week and 6 months after the ridge preservation procedure. Results were analyzed using the independent t-test and the nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between the ECM membranes in the changes in the dimension, width, and height of the extraction socket or the quantity of bone tissue. CONCLUSIONS: The NEM showed comparable clinical and radiographic results to the WEM following the ridge preservation procedure.

A comparison of different compressive forces on graft materials during alveolar ridge preservation

PURPOSE: Following tooth extraction, alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) can maintain the dimensions of ridge height and width. Although previous studies have demonstrated the effects of ARP, few if any studies have investigated the compressive force applied during grafting. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different compressive forces on the graft materials during ARP. METHODS: After tooth extraction, sockets were filled with deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% porcine collagen and covered by a resorbable collagen membrane in a double-layered fashion. The graft materials were compressed using a force of 5 N in the test group (n=12) and a force of 30 N in the control group (n=12). A hidden X suture was performed to secure the graft without primary closure. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed immediately after grafting and 4 months later, just before implant surgery. Tissue samples were retrieved using a trephine bur from the grafted sites during implant surgery for histologic and histomorphometric evaluations. Periotest values (PTVs) were measured to assess the initial stability of the dental implants. RESULTS: Four patients dropped out from the control group and 20 patients finished the study. Both groups healed without any complications. The CBCT measurements showed that the ridge volume was comparably preserved vertically and horizontally in both groups (P>0.05). Histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that the ratio of new bone formation was significantly greater in the test group (P0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The application of a greater compressive force on biomaterials during ARP significantly enhanced new bone formation while preserving the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the alveolar ridge. Further studies are required to identity the optimal compressive force for ARP.

Current Methods for the Treatment of Alveolar Cleft

Alveolar cleft is a tornado-shaped bone defect in the maxillary arch. The treatment goals for alveolar cleft are stabilization and provision of bone continuity to the maxillary arch, permitting support for tooth eruption, eliminating oronasal fistulas, providing an improved esthetic result, and improving speech. Treatment protocols vary in terms of the operative time, surgical techniques, and graft materials. Early approaches including boneless bone grafting (gingivoperiosteoplasty) and primary bone graft fell into disfavor because they impaired facial growth, and they remain controversial. Secondary bone graft (SBG) is not the most perfect method, but long-term follow-up has shown that the graft is absorbed to a lesser extent, does not impede facial growth, and supports other teeth. Accordingly, SBG in the mixed dentition phase (6–11 years) has become the preferred method of treatment. The most commonly used graft material is cancellous bone from the iliac crest. Recently, many researchers have investigated the use of allogeneic bone, artificial bone, and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein, along with growth factors because of their ability to decrease donor-site morbidity. Further investigations of bone substitutes and additives will continue to be needed to increase their effectiveness and to reduce complications.

Implant placement simultaneously sinus augmentation using crestal approach in severely atrophic maxilla; minimally invasive approach

The atrophy of edentulous ridge and pneumatization of the maxillary sinus often limit the volume of bone available for implant placement on maxillary posterior teeth. Most clinicians suffer difficulties from poor bone quality and quantity on maxillary posterior site. Thus, the success of maxillary posterior implant surgery depends on the increase of the available bone and obtaining a good initial stability of the implant after maxillary sinus reconstruction. The maxillary sinus augmentation methods include a crestal approach and a lateral approach. Less morbidity and complications after operation is major advantage to sinus augmentation using crestal approach than lateral approach. However, when the residual ridge height is ≥ 6 mm, it is known that crestal approach is appropriate. Also delayed implantation after sinus augmentation is recommended in severely atrophic ridge. We present the three cases of implant placement simultaneously sinus augmentation using crestal approach in posterior maxilla site with ≤ 3 mm of residual alveolar bone.

Use of mandibular chin bone for alveolar bone grafting in cleft patients / 대한악안면성형재건외과학회지

BACKGROUND: We evaluated and compared the outcomes of different ossification processes in patients with alveolar cleft in whom correction was performed using endochondral bone graft or intramembranous bone graft. METHODS: The patients were divided into two groups: the endochondral bone (iliac bone or rib bone) graft group and the intramembranous bone (mandibular bone) graft group. Medical records and radiologic images of patients who underwent alveolar bone grafting due to alveolar cleft were analyzed retrospectively. Through postoperative and follow-up radiologic images, the height of the interdental bone septum was classified into four types based on the highest point of alveolar ridge. Then, the height of the interdental bone septum and the area of the bone graft were evaluated according to the type of bone graft. In addition, the occurrence of complications and the need for an additional bone graft, the result of postoperative orthodontic treatment, and the eruption of impacted teeth were investigated. RESULTS: Thirty patients were included in this study. There was no significant difference in the change of the interdental bone height and the area of the bone graft according to the type of bone. There was no significant difference in the success rate of the surgery according to the type of bone. One patient underwent an additional bone graft surgery during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: The outcomes of alveolar bone grafting were not significantly different according to the type of bone graft. If appropriate to the size of the recipient site, the chin bone is a useful graft material in alveolar cleft, as is the iliac bone.
