A Method of Locating the Abutment Screw Access Channel with Cone-Beam Computed Tomography and a 3D-Printed Drilling Guide [PDF]

, 2018
In managing loose abutment screws, locating precisely the position of the screw access channel is difficult. This technique describes the use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and surgical guide planning software to locate the screw access channel ...

Efficacy of soft tissue augmentation in the maxillary esthetic region: A 5‐year randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Soft tissue grafting at dental implant sites has been proposed to enhance esthetic outcomes. A xenogeneic collagen matrix (XCM) was introduced as an alternative grafting material to connective tissue. Only short‐term results are yet available.

Peri‐implantitis reconstructive treatment implementing a titanium brush: 5‐year extension results from a randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis has become an important health issue in implant dentistry in the past years. Despite the magnitude of this problem and the potential grave consequences, the predictability and long‐term stability of its treatment is still a matter of controversy.

Treatment of peri‐implantitis with diode laser or mucosal flap surgery: A clinical randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a major challenge as contemporary nonsurgical treatments show dissatisfactory results and mucosal flap surgery is often needed. Diode lasers can remove granulation tissue and submucosal bacteria, and if it achieves similar clinical results, then it could be used as a less invasive first approach.

Peri‐implant inflammation increases the risk of osteonecrosis in mice treated with bisphosphonate

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bisphosphonates (BPs) are effective in managing bone diseases due to their anti‐resorptive properties but are linked to medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), particularly concerning dental implants. This study explored the combined impact of ligature‐induced peri‐implant inflammation and zoledronic acid (ZA), a BP ...

Hereditary angioedema as a cause of recurrent abdominal pain in a pediatric patient with Crohn's disease

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic condition caused by deficient or dysfunctional C1 inhibitor protein (C1INH) resulting in episodic angioedema of the skin, upper airway, and gastrointestinal tract. HAE most often presents within the first two decades of life and may cause severe abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and emesis, making ...

Impact of Spread Through Air Spaces (STAS) on Recurrence and Surgical Trends in Stage I Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Real‐World Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common form of lung cancer, which remains a leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Early detection, particularly at Stage I, is critical for improving survival outcomes. Low‐dose computed tomography (LDCT) has increased the detection of small asymptomatic tumors, resulting in an earlier ...

Development of a Cutting Guide for Osteocutaneous Radial Forearm Free Flap Harvest

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A custom radius cutting guide for osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap harvest was developed in an iterative process with six head and neck surgeons and one hand surgeon. This article details its development and use in eight patient cases. ABSTRACT Objectives The osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF) is used for the reconstruction of bony
