Vestibular Prosthesis: From Basic Research to Clinics [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2023
Balance disorders are highly prevalent worldwide, causing substantial disability with high personal and socioeconomic impact. The prognosis in many of these patients is poor, and rehabilitation programs provide little help in many cases.

Anterior Ridge Extension Using Modified Kazanjian Technique in Mandible- A Clinical Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Good alveolar ridge is a prerequisite for successful conventional/ implant supported partial/complete denture. Extensively resorbed ridges with shallow vestibule and high insertion of muscles in to the ridge crest, leads to failure of ...

Finding a Balance: A Systematic Review of the Biomechanical Effects of Vestibular Prostheses on Stability in Humans

open access: yesJournal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2020
The vestibular system is located in the inner ear and is responsible for maintaining balance in humans. Bilateral vestibular dysfunction (BVD) is a disorder that adversely affects vestibular function.

A Virtual Inner Ear Model Selects Ramped Pulse Shapes for Vestibular Afferent Stimulation

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
Bilateral vestibular deficiency (BVD) results in chronic dizziness, blurry vision when moving the head, and postural instability. Vestibular prostheses (VPs) show promise as a treatment, but the VP-restored vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain in human ...

Vestibuloplasty following denture hyperplasia resection with diode laser

open access: yesJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2020
Denture hyperplasia is a common clinical finding in patients wearing dentures. In this case report, a patient who was treated for denture hyperplasia presented with a post operative complication which led to inadequate vestibular depth.

The vestibular implant: Frequency-dependency of the electrically evoked Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex in humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) shows frequency-dependent behavior. This study investigated whether the characteristics of the electrically evoked VOR (eVOR) elicited by a vestibular implant, showed the same frequency-dependency.Twelve vestibular ...

The Vestibular Implant Input Interacts with Residual Natural Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2017
ObjectivePatients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) can still have residual “natural” function. This might interact with “artificial” vestibular implant input (VI-input). When fluctuating, it could lead to vertigo attacks.

Head movements evoked in alert rhesus monkey by vestibular prosthesis stimulation: implications for postural and gaze stabilization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The vestibular system detects motion of the head in space and in turn generates reflexes that are vital for our daily activities. The eye movements produced by the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) play an essential role in stabilizing the visual axis (gaze),
