OSTEOPETROSIS IN CHILDREN

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, 1998
SUMMARYOver a 10‐year period, 28 Arab children with autosomal recessive osteopetrosis were seen in two hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Eighteen (64%) had osteopetrosis associated with metabolic acidosis probably due to a renal tubular defect; nine (32%) had a malignant infantile form of osteopetrosis and one had a mild form with delayed onset ...

Dental Implants in Adults With Intellectual Disabilities: A Multicenter Retrospective Study. Part 1: Implant Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page 1259-1274, July 2026.
This multicenter retrospective study evaluated implant survival and peri‐implant health in adults with non‐syndromic intellectual disability. Among 453 implants with long‐term follow‐up, survival exceeded 92%, with tissue‐level implants and cement‐retained restorations associated with healthier peri‐implant conditions. These findings support the use of
