3D‐Printed Sinus Lift Training Models as an Educational Tool for Dental Students

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate whether 3D‐printed models can be an inexpensive and suitable way to train dental students to perform a sinus lift. Methods The sinus lift model was created using CAD/CAM technology. Approximately one year prior to their final examination, thirty‐one dental students evaluated and tested ...

Biomaterials for resolution of peri‐implantitis: Consensus report of Workgroup 2 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Twenty‐four month clinical outcomes of modified coronally advanced tunnel technique with leukocyte‐ and platelet‐rich fibrin–functionalized porcine dermal matrix for single/multiple gingival recessions

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To report 24‐month clinical and 3D outcomes of single and multiple RT1 and RT2 gingival recessions treated with the modified coronally advanced tunnel (MCAT) technique and an L‐PRF‐functionalized porcine dermal matrix (PDM), as long‐term data on PDM in root coverage are scarce.

Smoking effects on root coverage outcomes between 3 and 12 months: A prospective cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the impact of smoking on root coverage outcomes, comparing healing responses at 3–12 months following coronally advanced flap with a connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG). Methods This prospective cohort study included 27 participants (13 smokers, 14 non‐smokers) who required root coverage for a single Cairo

Protective factors and critical mucosal thickness for the stability of the peri‐implant soft tissue margin over 5 years: A longitudinal cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implant soft tissue dehiscence deficiencies (PSTDs) are common esthetic complications in the anterior maxilla, yet the parameters that protect the peri‐implant soft tissue margin (STM) over time remain unclear. Previous studies have identified several risk indicators, but longitudinal thresholds capable of predicting stable STM

Impact of toothbrush type and periodontal phenotype on root coverage stability: A 6‐year observational follow‐up of a randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This 6‐year observational follow‐up of a randomized, parallel‐arm clinical trial evaluated the association between toothbrush type and periodontal phenotype on the long‐term stability of the gingival margin (GM) following coronally advanced flap (CAF) surgery.

The effect of leukocyte–platelet‐rich fibrin in periodontal surgery on clinical parameters and patient‐related outcome measures: A randomized, controlled, clinical study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This prospective study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes and patient‐related outcome measures (PROMs) of open flap debridement (OFD) alone versus open flap debridement with leukocyte–platelet‐rich fibrin (L‐PRF). Methods Twenty‐one patients were enrolled into a split‐mouth randomized clinical trial.
