Stability of different fixation methods after reduction malarplasty under average and maximum masticatory forces: a finite element analysis

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2023
Background Although titanium plates/screws are effective fixation methods (FM) after L-shaped osteotomy reduction malarplasty (LORM), the ideal FM remains controversial.

Patterns of interspecific variation in labial microarchitecture among anthropoid primates and the evolution of the hominin lips

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Comparative histological and semi‐automated image analysis of primate lips: Masson's trichrome‐stained sagittal sections were segmented to quantify the connective tissue, adipose, and muscular components, enabling interspecific comparisons of labial architecture.

The epidemiological analysis of maxillofacial fractures in Italy: The experience of a single tertiary center with 1720 patients [PDF]

, 2008
Maxillofacial fractures represent a serious public health problem. Their epidemiology is extremely variable, and its analysis is crucial to establish effective treatment and prevention of these injuries.

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

Zygomatic implants for supporting nasal epitheses in large carcinological rhinectomies: case reports

Journal of Oral Medicine and Oral Surgery
Two patients aged 55 and 62 underwent total rhinectomy followed by radiotherapy for the treatment of nasal squamous cell carcinoma. Initially, a conventional nasal epithesis was fitted, but was not tolerated due to allergic reactions to skin adhesives ...

Fronto-Orbito-zygomatic approach: a technical modification. [PDF]

, 1996
The fronto-orbito zygomatic approach is part of the surgical armamentarium of modern skull base surgery. As described in the literature, it requires costly technological tools such as powerful drills and saws, to be performed.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

3D bioprinting in oral and craniomaxillofacial tissue regeneration: Progress, challenges, and future directions

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This paper summarized the application of 3D bioprinting in the regeneration of various tissues in the oral and craniomaxillofacial fields, including the required biomaterials and printing techniques. Abstract Oral and craniomaxillofacial tissues are essential for maintaining oral functions, including respiration, mastication, swallowing, and speech ...

Variations in Human Trigeminal and Facial Nerve Branches and Foramina Identified by Dissection and Microcomputed Tomography

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify branches of the trigeminal and facial nerves (FNs) relevant to surgical incisions and injections and the scalp block techniques in the frontotemporal region, and to determine their relationships with superficial vascular structures and bony landmarks.
