Rigid internal fixation of zygoma fractures: A comparison of two-point and three-point fixation
Background: Displaced fractures of the zygomatic bone can result in significant functional and aesthetic sequelae. Therefore the treatment must achieve adequate and stable reduction at fracture sites so as to restore the complex multidimensional ...

Prenatal development of skull and brain in a mouse model of growth restriction [PDF]
Patterns of covariation result from the over-lapping effect of several developmental processes. By perturbing certain specific developmental processes, ex-perimental studies contribute to a better understanding of their particular effects on the ...

Interpositional bone graft with cortical and cancellous calvarial bone for addressing the bone gap after reduction malarplasty: a case report [PDF]
Asians typically exhibit prominent zygomas; therefore, several attempts have been made to reduce these structures to achieve a softer appearance. The intraoral approach is preferred because of its shorter surgical duration and lower invasiveness; however,

Somatosensory tinnitus: current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]
In some individuals, tinnitus can be modulated by specific maneuvers of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck, eyes, and limbs. Neuroplasticity seems to play a central role in this capacity for modulation, suggesting that abnormal interactions ...

Substantial CT radiation dose reduction does not affect the preference for CT over direct digital radiography to diagnose isolated zygomatic fractures:a study in human cadavers [PDF]
Introduction: Zygomatic fractures can be diagnosed with either computed tomography (CT) or direct digital radiography (DR). The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of CT dose reduction on the preference for facial CT versus DR for accurate ...
