Development of Semi-Automated Image-Based Analysis Tool for CBCT Evaluation of Alveolar Ridge Changes After Tooth Extraction

Bioengineering
Following tooth extraction, the bone structure is prone to atrophic changes. Alveolar ridge resorption can compromise subsequent implant treatment not only at the extraction site itself but also by affecting the bone support of adjacent teeth.

Assessment of the impact of reconstitution therapies—cladribine tablets and alemtuzumab—on the atrophy progression among patients with relapse-remitting multiple sclerosis

Frontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionImmune reconstitution therapies (IRT) are highly effective therapies for multiple sclerosis (MS). Among IRT, we can distinguish partially selective therapies such as cladribine in tablets (CLAD) and non-selective therapies, which include ...
