Necrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck is a rare, very severe disease, which, in most cases, originates from odontogenic infections frequently ends with death patient. Rapid surgical intervention combination preferably pathogen-specific antibiotic therapy can ensure patients' survival. The question arises concerning which pathogens are causative for necrotizing course inflammations. Experimental 16S-rRNA gene analysis next-generation sequencing bioinformatics was used to identify...
Given the increasing incidence of deformational plagiocephaly due to infants' supine sleeping position prevent sudden infant death syndrome, reliable anthropometric diagnostics are needed. Besides traditional method measuring landmarks with callipers, three-dimensional (3D) photography has great potential. In this investigation accuracy 3D photogrammetry is studied.The study included 100 randomly chosen children between ages 4 and 20 months a non-synostotic cranial deformity in retrospective...
Cranial asymmetries due to nonsynostotic deformation of the skull have been reported with increasing frequency during last decade. Conservative approaches using helmets and physiotherapy shown be effective in their treatment. Traditionally, documentation has carried out anthropometric caliper measurements. The present study evaluates use a new three-dimensional photographic system improved validation changes head deformities. This prospective analysis introduces technique for digital...
Odontogenic abscesses are usually caused by bacteria of the oral microbiome. However, diagnostic culture these is often prone to errors and sometimes fails completely due fastidiousness relevant bacterial species. The question arises whether additional pathogen diagnostics using molecular methods provide benefits for therapy. Experimental 16S rRNA gene analysis with next-generation sequencing (NGS) bioinformatics was used identify microbiome pus in patients severe odontogenic infections...
Severe odontogenic abscesses are regularly caused by bacteria of the physiological oral microbiome. However, culture these is often prone to errors and sometimes does not result in any bacterial growth. Furthermore, various authors found completely different spectra abscesses. Experimental 16S rRNA gene next-generation sequencing analysis was used identify microbiome saliva pus patients with a severe infection. The determined for 50 abscess. Perimandibular submandibular were most commonly...
The aim of this monocentric, retrospective clinical study was to evaluate the status osseous union in uni- and poly-segmental mandible reconstructions regarding conventional angle-stable manually bent osteosynthesis plates (Unilock 2.0 mm) versus titan laser-melted PSI patient-specific implant's (PSI). impact PSI's high stiffness fixation methods on bone healing regeneration is still not well addressed. special interest evaluating ossification junctions between fibula osteotomized free flap...
Abstract Purpose The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate and compare the effects platform switching (PS) matching (PM) on marginal bone loss (MBL) clinical parameters in immediately inserted dental implants. Methods Thirty-seven patients were included (PS group: twenty-one patients, PM sixteen patients), with follow-up periods ranging from six months 23 years. MBL measured using orthopantomograms (OPG), implant success evaluated Buser, Albrektsson, Attia criteria. Regression...
Background and Objectives The atrophic posterior maxilla often requires restoration of the alveolar ridge due to a lack bone quantity quality before dental implant placement. aim this study was verify hypothesis that platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) has an influence on density in after sinus floor elevation combination with autologous cancellous from iliac crest. Therefore, randomized, prospective, controlled trial set up two centres. Study Design Methods Fifty‐three patients who underwent...
Micro-gaps and osseous overload in the implant-abutment connection are most common causes of peri-implant bone resorption implant failure. These undesirable events can be visualized on standardized three-dimensional finite element models by radiographic methods. The present study investigated influence 7 available systems (Ankylos, Astra, Bego, Brånemark, Camlog, Straumann, Xive) with different connections appearance micro-gaps vitro. individual geometries implants were transferred to...
Purpose Yttria-stabilized zirconia (TZ) is used for dental applications because of its low toxicity and beneficial mechanical properties, but it does not stimulate bone regeneration around the implant due to bioinertness. Therefore, hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings are often utilized increase surface bioactivity achieve a better osseointegration. These coatings, however, chemically nonstable provide weak bonding substrate surface. Materials Methods In this study, substrates were coated with...
An important challenge in the field of dental and orthopedic implantology is preparation implant coatings with bioactive functions that feature a high mechanical stability at same time mimic structural compositional properties native bone for better ingrowth. This study investigates influence magnesium addition to zirconia-calcium phosphate coatings. The mixed were prepared varying additions either oxide or fluoride yttria-stabilized zirconia hydroxyapatite. deposited on discs screw implants...
This is a monocentric, retrospective study of patients who underwent successful immediate or delayed maxilla mandible reconstructions with FFF from January 2005 to December 2021. Panoramic radiograph, computed tomography scans, and cone-beam CTs were analyzed concerning the osseous union intersegmental junctions between maxillary mandibular native jaw fibular bone. The primary parameter was estimate status according osteosynthesis type. A total number 133 (PSI: n = 64, non-PSI: 69) included...
