Evaluation of inferior alveolar nerve regeneration by bifocal distraction osteogenesis with retrograde transportation of horseradish peroxidase in dogs. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Bifocal distraction osteogenesis has been shown to be a reliable method for reconstructing segmental mandibular defects. However, there are few reports regarding the occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve regeneration during the process of ...

An unusual anatomical variation of the inferior alveolar nerve

Anatomy & Cell Biology, 2020
A number of studies have previously shown variations of inferior alveolar, however, only a few reports focused on nearby the foramen ovale. In a formalin fixed cadaver, we identified three minor branches (anterior, middle, and posterior branches) arising from the main trunk of the mandibular nerve adjacent to the foramen ovale, passing lateral to the ...

Biomaterials for modulating cellular responses of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells: A promising avenue for tendon regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes emerging biomaterial‐based strategies and underlying mechanisms for modulating endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). It offers the most recent insights into TSPC physiology and potential applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in tendons.

Grooved Surface of the Obturator Internus Muscle With Two Distinct Adjacent Parts

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The specific anatomical features of the obturator internus, particularly those of its medial surface, remain insufficiently characterized. This study investigated the morphology of the obturator internus muscle by focusing on the shape of its medial surface and potential age‐related changes.

What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...

Developmental Morphometry of the Paranasal Sinuses in Subjects Aged 1–25 Years: A Computed Tomography Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to evaluate the developmental morphometry of the paranasal sinuses using computed tomography (CT) in subjects aged 1–25 years and to characterize age‐related changes in sinus dimensions, volume, and surface area throughout childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood.

The correlation between Rood and Shehab’s radiographic features and the incidence of inferior alveolar nerve paraesthesia following odontectomy of lower third molars

Dental Journal, 2016
Background: Odontectomy of lower third molar has a potential risk for inferior alveolar nerve impairment. Paresthesia of inferior alveolar nerve has often been associated with close relationship between the apex of lower third molar and mandibular canal.

Inferior alveolar nerve block: Alternative technique

Anesthesia: Essays and Researches, 2012
Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is a technique of dental anesthesia, used to produce anesthesia of the mandibular teeth, gingivae of the mandible and lower lip. The conventional IANB is the most commonly used the nerve block technique for achieving local anesthesia for mandibular surgical procedures.
