Rehabilitation of Edentulous Atrophic Anterior Mandible – The Role of Vertical Alveolar Distraction Osteogenesis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014
The rehabilitation of patients with edentulous alveolar ridge is always a challenge, more so in case of a long standing atrophic mandible. Mandible, the largest movable bone in the maxillofacial skeleton is associated with many soft tissue attachments ...

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

Comparative evaluation of extrasinus versus intrasinus approach for zygomatic implant placement

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2022
Edentulism, a common problem can occur either as a congenital defect or acquired later due to dental caries, periodontitis, as a consequence of aging, maxillofacial trauma or post-ablation in tumor resections.

Modified Neumann incision for implant placement in overdentures: Case series of a less invasive alternative

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Conventional envelope flap techniques for implant placement in edentulous mandibles are associated with greater postoperative morbidity, especially in elderly patients or those with anatomical limitations. Minimally invasive alternatives aim to preserve soft tissues and reduce complications, enhancing clinical predictability ...

Biomechanical evaluation of conventional, zygomatic, zygomatic bone anchored subperiosteal and maxilla anchored subperiosteal implants applied totally edentulous maxilla: finite element stress analysis

BMC Oral Health
Background This study aims to evaluate the stress distribution under occlusal forces by using finite element analysis (FEA) to compare conventional, zygomatic, and differently designed subperiosteal implants (SI) in edentulous atrophic maxilla. Methods A

Guided bone regeneration using titanium mesh and xenogeneic graft alone: Histologic findings and 7‐year follow‐up

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Guided bone regeneration is a reliable technique for treating alveolar ridge deficiencies, especially in cases of severe maxillary atrophy. This case report describes the clinical management of a partially edentulous female patient presenting horizontal bone resorption in the anterior maxilla.

Effectiveness of zygomatic-implant fixed rehabilitation for the atrophic edentulous maxilla: protocol for a systematic review and network meta-analysis

Systematic Reviews
Background Atrophic edentulous maxilla is a debilitating condition caused by the progressive and irreversible bone resorption following loss of teeth, that results in bone of inadequate volume and density.

Nasal Floor Membrane Lifting for Dental Implant Placement in an Atrophic Premaxilla.

Regeneration, Reconstruction & Restoration, 2020
Introduction: Augmentation of atrophic alveolar ridges is an important aspect of functional restoration in modern oral rehabilitation. Vertical bone resorption of the dentoalveolar ridges remains a serious challenge for successful dental implant ...
