Abstract Objectives to assess peri‐implant tissue conditions on the short‐term in patients receiving the Sub‐periosteal Peri‐implant Augmented Layer (SPAL) technique and in patients with adequate thickness (≥ 2 mm) of the peri‐implant buccal bone plate (PBBP) at placement. Methods Patients where either a dehiscence defect or thin PBBP at implant placement was corrected by SPAL technique (SPALdehiscence and SPALthin groups, respectively) and patients presenting a residual PBBP thickness...

Abstract Objectives The aim of this single-center randomized controlled trial (NCT03753256) was to assess orthodontic surface sealant layer thickness and integrity in vivo during a 12-month follow-up by optical coherence tomography (OCT). Materials and methods Using a split-mouth design, quadrants of 20 patients treated with fixed orthodontic appliances were...
Abstract Objectives To present and explore the potential of an animal-based experimental model developed to determine the set of root canal sealers in vivo. The setting of AH Plus, BioC Sealer, TotalFill BC Sealer, and Sealapex was determined using either ISO 6876 or the novel in vivo method proposed in this study. Material and methods The in vitro setting...
Abstract Objectives To determine the role of angiogenic factor with G-patch and FHA domain 1 (AGGF1) in inflammatory response of human dental pulp cells (DPCs) and the underneath mechanism and to explore its role in angiogenesis. Materials and methods The expression of AGGF-1 in human healthy and inflammatory pulp tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry....
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effect(s) of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on in vitro RANKL-mediated osteoclast-dependent bone resorption events and the influence of Ca2+ and Al3+ on the osteoclastogenesis inhibition by MTA. Materials and methods Two types of osteoclast precursors, RAW 264.7 (RAW) cell line or bone marrow cells (obtained from BALB/c...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the clinical performance of partial glass-ceramic (IPS e.max Press) posterior restorations. Materials and methods A total of 765 restorations in 158 patients were placed between 2008 and 2018 and evaluated in a prospective study during regular dental care visits between 2015 and 2018. The restorations were luted with a conventional...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of CBCT-MRI fused images for articular disc calcification of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Materials and methods Twenty patients (24 TMJs) whose image examinations showed dense bodies in the TMJ space were included in the study. The locations of dense bodies evaluated by the three experts were used...
Abstract Objectives Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image quality can be severely impaired by artifacts caused by fixed orthodontic retainers. In clinical practice, there is a trend towards using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) retainers. This study aimed to quantify MRI artifacts produced by these novel CAD/CAM retainers. Material and methods ...

This systematic review (SR) aimed to evaluate speech and velopharyngeal function (VPF) changes of patients with cleft palate (CLP) after maxillary advancement (MA) surgery. A two-phase PROSPERO-registered SR (CRD42019141370) was conducted following the PRISMA statements. Search strategies were developed for main databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, COCHRANE, LILACS, and EBSCOhost) and Grey literature information sources. The GRADE tool was used to evaluate the quality of evidence. From a total...
The objective of this study was to compare the implant longevity following two methods of peri-implant soft tissue optimization following free fibula flap (FFF): thinning of skin paddle (SP) and collagen matrix (CM). All patients who underwent rehabilitation with dental implants after mandibular reconstruction with FFF between June 2009 to May 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Two methods of peri-implant soft tissue optimization were applied: (1) SP group, (2) CM group. Outcome measurements were:...
The ‘beauty arch’, an aesthetic feature of the midface, is a double-S-shaped curve that extends downward from the lateral canthus. This retrospective study evaluated whether modified high Le Fort I advancement (combined with impaction or down-grafting) without malar augmentation can approximate a patient’s ‘ideal’ beauty arch (IBA). Pre- and postoperative profile (natural head position) photographs for 36 patients with midfacial hypoplasia were aligned digitally. For each individual, standardized...
This systematic review aimed to compare the Erich arch bars (EABs) with intermaxillary fixation (IMF) screws in maxillofacial fractures involving dental occlusion on perioperative parameters. Four electronic databases were searched: MedLine (Pubmed), Web of Science, VHL, and Cochrane Library. Inclusion criteria comprised clinical trials comparing the two IMF methods, assessing at least one of the outcomes: occlusal stability, oral hygiene, quality of life, time to apply and remove IMF appliances,...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate pain after mandibular ramus block harvesting and lateral ridge augmentation. Autogenous bone block grafts were covered with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membranes (test group) or deproteinized bovine bone and a resorbable collagen membrane (control group). This study included 27 partially edentulous patients (test = 14, control = 13) with an indication for bone block augmentation before staged implant placement. Postoperative methylprednisolone (32 mg, day...

Triangulating the ledge: radiographic study of the floor of orbit and derivation of a novel template
In orbital floor reconstruction, the need for the orbital implant to reach the exact position of the posteromedial ledge is essential, but owing to the complex anatomy of the region, visualisation of the ledge may be difficult. Several morphometric studies, both radiographic and cadaveric, have calculated a mean length from the orbital rim to the ledge. However, those linear measurements are unreliable and possess a higher margin of error for intraoperative guidance. This study attempts to triangulate...
