Bone Height and Extractions Study
Alveolar Bone LossPeriodontal Attachment Loss1 moreA coronectomy is often chosen over complete extraction of a lower third molar when the tooth appears to be in close proximity to the inferior dental (ID) canal, as assessed on a plain radiograph or a cone beam computer tomograph (CBCT). Following a coronectomy, the roots of the third molar may migrate in a coronal direction. This effect, along with the bone-preserving technique of a coronectomy over extraction, may provide increased bone height distal to the lower second molars, when compared to extraction. Partially erupted lower third molars, specifically those with mesio-angular impactions, are commonly associated with reduced bone height distal to lower second molars, and cause damage to the periodontal support of these neighboring teeth. It is assumed that maintenance of the impacted third molars or extraction of these teeth may compromise the periodontal status of the lower second molars. This study will investigate if coronectomy improves the bone levels, and therefore the periodontal status, of lower second molars, and may propose an indication for a coronectomy regardless of the proximity of the tooth to the ID canal. Coronectomies were first proposed as a treatment option just over thirty years ago, but there are very few long-term studies on the procedure reported in the literature. To the best of the investigator's knowledge, this will be the first randomised controlled trial comparing the bone height distal to the lower second molar following a coronectomy or extraction of the lower third molar.
Mini Distractor in Vertically Deficient Bone
PeriodontitisAlveolar Bone LossADO is a bone regeneration technique, introduced by Chin and Toth in 1996 based in a biological process used for regenerate and consolidate bone between two bone segments obtained after osteotomy.These segments have been gradually separated by the process of distraction. ADO can be performed both horizontally (AHDO) and vertically (AVDO).
Using Combination of Synthetic Bone Substitutes During Extractions
PeriodontitisDental Caries1 moreThe study was designed to assess the effectiveness of conservation ridge preservation (horizontal and vertical dimension) after tooth extraction with and without combination of bone substitutes based on synthetic (calcium sulfate mixed with phosphate.
Effect of Topical Melatonin Application on Dental Implant Osseointegration and Marginal Bone Level...
Alveolar Bone LossBackground: Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxy-tryptamine) is an indoleamine synthesized and secreted by the pineal gland and other organs, such as the retina, bone marrow, and intestines in a circadian pattern. Some authors claimed that Melatonin induces bone formation, increase bone density, and bone implant contact. According to animal and human studies the melatonin can be used topically during implant placement to increase bone implant contact and reduce marginal bone loss. Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the topical administration of melatonin on osseointegration of dental implants and in minimize marginal bone loss. Materials and Methods: Twenty single-piece endosseous implants (Dentium Co, Korea) will use to restore missing lower teeth from canine to first molar area. The study will be split-mouth technique, each patient serve as his own control (served into 2 groups), the study side (topical application of melatonin in the implant side), and the control side (no melatonin in the other implant side of the same patients).The primary and secondary stability of dental implant will be evaluated by periotest M device and measure bone level as baseline immediately after implant placement and after 6 months follow up by CBCT.
Decortication With Calcium Phosphosilicate Putty in the Treatment of Non-contained Intrabony Periodontal...
Periodontal Bone LossTo overcome the disadvantage of complex morphology and availability of less favorable support to retention of graft and clot stabilization in 1-, 1-2-wall periodontal defects, it was hypothesized that placement of CPS putty having the property of being easily moldable and shaped along with decortication would provide better healing outcome as compared to decortication alone in 1-, 1-2-wall periodontal defects. Therefore with this rationale, the present study is carried out to evaluate the treatment outcomes of decortication with and without use of CPS putty in 1- wall, 1-2-wall periodontal defects.
Interest of Bone Substitute Material in Immediate Complete Denture
Alveolar Bone LossDenture Complete Immediate3 moreMore than 2 million French people suffer from the widespread disability of edentulism, with large consequences on function, nutrition, aesthetics and well-being. Complete denture is a common therapeutic strategy. The immediate complete denture technique consists in placing the denture in the same clinical session as last anterior teeth extractions. With this technique, aesthetic and function are immediately reintroduced and the patient is never left toothless or without any denture. After teeth extractions, alveolar healing process leads to ridge resorption with bone volume modifications and reduction in height and width. However ridge bone volume is an essential factor in removable denture stability. With implantology as an alternative prosthetic strategy, ridge volume is also a most important factor to place dental implants in a situation close to previous dental roots position. In order to preserve bone volume, a current alternative strategy proposes to place bone substitute materials in tooth sockets after extraction. This strategy was never evaluated with the immediate complete denture technique. Hypothesis: A new strategy associating immediate complete denture and bone substitute material is more effective than conventional immediate complete denture in a bone preservation perspective.
