Management of post‐implant fibrous dysplasia in the maxilla: A case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrous dysplasia is generally rare, and even rarer in older adults. Special care is needed when altering the alveolar bone in these cases, especially if an implant is involved. This case study highlights such a scenario. Methods This case study details the experience of a 63‐year‐old African American female who presented with a ...

In vitro ultrastructure and biodegradation of activated plasma albumin gel derived from human samples: A prospective observational study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In soft tissue regeneration, the clinical efficacy of fibrin membranes has been a pressing concern. The key to this efficacy lies in the stability of membrane and its controlled absorption. Human serum albumin, with its influence on the formation and stability of fibrin networks, could hold the key to developing a more stable ...

Reconstruction of a Total Soft Palatal Defect Using a Folded Radial Forearm Free Flap and Palmaris Longus Tendon Sling

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2012
Background The soft palate functions as a valve and helps generate the oral pressure required for normal speech resonance. Speech problems and nasal regurgitation can result from a soft palatal defect. Reduction of the size of the velopharyngeal orifice

Crestal approach for repair of oroantral bone defects and subsequent implant placement

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Oroantral communication (OAC) can occur after a dental extraction. Occasionally, bony defects may persist despite successful soft tissue closure of the OAC. The absence of bone in these areas poses challenges for dental implant placement.

Double‐vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (double‐VISTA) with connective tissue graft for treating multiple gingival recessions: 2‐year follow‐up

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingival recession has a multifactorial etiology, involving various predisposing and precipitating factors. Non‐carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are often associated with gingival recession and pose challenges due to their complex pathodynamics.

Biologically‐oriented alveolar ridge preservation to correct bone dehiscence at immediate implant placement

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically‐oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri‐implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).
