Objectives Osteonecrosis of the jaw ( ONJ ) is a potentially severe adverse effect bisphosphonates BP ). Although risk increases with increasing duration treatment, there are currently no reliable estimates time to onset TTO The objective this study was estimate and associated factors in ‐treated patients. Subjects Methods Retrospective analysis data from 22 secondary care centres seven countries relevant 349 patients who developed ‐related between 2004 2012. Results median (95% CI 6.0 years...
The aim of the present superiority study was to determine effect systemic antibiotics primarily on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and post-surgical complications in patients undergoing oral implant therapy with simultaneous guided bone regeneration (GBR).A total 236 medically periodontally healthy received implants GBR at seven centres. Pre-operative 2 g amoxicillin were prescribed test group 1 hr prior surgery 500 mg thrice daily days 1-3 after surgery. control given a placebo....
The aim of this publication is to provide a concept for prevention and standardized step-by-step clinical approach rare but serious potentially preventable complication dental local anesthesia.We collected data with PUBMED search using the key words "local anesthesia," "dental anesthesia/anesthesia" OR "mandibular block "complication," "hypodermic needle," "needle breakage" fracture," "foreign body AND removal" "retrieval." existing literature was systematically evaluated from 1980 date...
Aim of the pilot trial was to evaluate applicability and effects directly autotransplanted tibial bone marrow (BM) aspirates on incorporation porous bovine mineral in a sinus lift model osseointegration dental implants.Six edentulous patients with bilaterally severely resorbed maxillae requiring augmentation implant treatment were included. During surgery, BM harvested added substitute material (Bio-Oss(®) ) at randomly selected test site. At control sites, performed Bio-Oss(®) alone. The...
Background It is unknown whether autogenous bone impacts the grafts' stability when added to biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) within first six months of maxillary sinus augmentation (MSA). Purpose To investigate volume BCP alone and in mixtures with for MSA. Materials Methods Bilateral was performed eight patients a split-mouth design using at control site adding particulated autologous test (BCPAB). Based on 16 computed tomography (CT) volumetric changes were evaluated Voxim® software...
Abstract Background Implant‐retained overdentures have become a standard option for the prosthetic treatment of edentulous mandible in elderly. Purpose This prospective study aimed to compare immediate and conventional loading four interforaminal implants supporting Locator‐retained mandibular overdenture elderly patients regarding implant survival, stability, implant‐related complications. Material methods The population comprised 20 completely (11 males) aged 60 years older with severe...
The pathogenesis of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis the jaw (BRONJ) is still not completely clarified. Nevertheless, risk factors have been described.Implants and placement implants are known to contribute BRONJ risk. development bone exposure has reported after insertion implants, especially in patients taking intravenous bisphosphonates as linked existing probably associated with peri-implantitis.1,2,3Consequently, several authors societies labeled bisphosphonate therapy a limiting or...
Objective: It is the aim of this study to evaluate if CO2 laser can beneficially be applied for excising epulides. Background data: The standard procedure treating epulides involves excision hyperplastic tissue followed in most cases by removal parts underlying bone and final closure wound a flap. use treatment has been documented only isolated case reports very few series. Patients methods: Ninety patients with different subtypes were treated (Lasram, model OPAL 25, 25 W, 10.600 nm, gas...
Only a few years ago pharmaceutical agents called NOAC created great insecurity amongst surgeons. Nevertheless, the “Novel Oral Anticoagulants” are no longer brand new! Many questions about NOAC-associated risks as well safe handling with them can already be answered on certain level of evidence. The presentation shall inform agents’ impact oral surgery and give advice management maximum effectiveness, practicability safety for patients under Novel Anticoagulant drugs.
Symptomatic patients with advanced stages of medication -related osteonecrosis (MRONJ) may require immediate aggressive surgical treatment but are often susceptible to common antibiotics.The case a 71-year-old man severe the entire lower jaw demonstrated good response systemic antibiotic therapy.Operative therapy was directed at resecting remaining local necrotic bone.Additionally, multiple skeletal-related events (SREs) occurred after antiresorptive break.This is used highlight long-term...
