Tomography of the alveolar process

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1980
This radiologic study using hemisected dog jaws was undertaken to determine whether or not tomographic techniques would be superior to standard dental x-ray techniques in detecting prepared periodontal defects within the cancellous bone of dog jaws. Specifically, it was done to determine whether or not tomography might be a reliable method of checking ...

Masseter muscle atrophy impairs bone quality of the mandibular condyle but not the alveolar process early after induction.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2018
BACKGROUND Masseter muscle function influences mandibular bone homeostasis. As previously reported, bone resorption markers increased in the mouse mandibular condyle two days after masseter paralysis induced with botulinum toxin type A (BoNTA), followed ...

Peripheral Osteoma of the Maxillary Alveolar Process

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2007
Osteoma is a benign, slow-growing tumor characterized by proliferation of compact or cancellous bone. Solitary osteomas are classified as peripheral, central, or extraskeletal. Peripheral osteomas of the oral cavity are unusual and the maxilla is rarely affected.

Periosteal Microvasculature in the Dog Alveolar Process

Journal of Periodontology, 1989
Most periodontal surgery has been performed on the basis of the regenerating capacity of the periosteum. Recently it has been pointed out that the blood supply is important to the osteogenic and fibrogenic activity of the periosteum. The purpose of the present study was three‐dimensional observation of blood vessels distributed within the gingival ...

Segmental distraction osteogenesis of the anterior alveolar process

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2001
This article describes a nonextraction therapy for patients with anterior tooth crowding in the mandible or with an unfavorable relation between the anterior dentoalveolar area and the skeletal base. The method involves the gradual repositioning of the dentate segment by use of distraction osteogenesis.The method was applied in 25 patients. Indications

Degenerative processes in the pathogenesis of pulmonary alveolar lipoproteinosis

Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histology, 1977
Electron microscopy in an infant of 4 months with pulmonary alveolar lipoproteinosis showed filling of the alveoli with osmiophilic lamellar bodies. Similar structures were present in the cytoplasm of type I alveolar epithelial cells and to a lesser extent in the capillary endothelium and interstitium.

Scleroderma of the face with involvement of the alveolar process

American Journal of Orthodontics and Oral Surgery, 1942
Abstract A case of linear scleroderma is reported in which the involved area corresponded roughly to the terminal distribution of the fifth nerve. There was a definite intraoral involvement in the region of the maxillary left first incisor. This consisted of a scarlike appearance of the oral mucosa which covered a depression in the alveolar process ...

Tooth irregularity and the height of the alveolar process in skulls

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1973
The interrelationships of a modified Tooth Cervical Height Index (Davies et al. 1969) and tooth irregularity were evaluated on the posterior teeth of 90 skulls. Two readings were made for tooth displacement, rotation, and the Tooth Cervical Height Index for each maxillary and mandibular first bicuspid, second bicuspid, and first molar.

The “FAD” (Floating Alveolar Device): A bidirectional distraction system for distraction osteogenesis of the alveolar process

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2004
The following study illustrates preoperative and perioperative vector management in alveolar distraction using a new distraction system--the "Floating Alveolar Device" (FAD). The FAD is a bidirectional alveolar distractor that allows augmentation of an atrophic alveolar process in several planes, assures easy intraoperative positioning of the planned ...

Mandibular coronoid process grafting for alveolar ridge defects

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology, 2012
We describe the clinical results of mandibular augmentation with coronoid process bone grafts for dental implant insertion.Fifteen patients with vertical and transverse defects of the posterior alveolar process of the mandible were treated. All patients underwent mandibular rehabilitation with autogenous coronoid process bone grafts via minimal-access ...
