Finite Element Assessment of a Novel Patient-Specific Mandibular Implant for Severely Atrophic Ridge.

Dental reconstruction for patients diagnosed with severe mandibular bone atrophy using common dental implants is a challenging process. In such cases, surgeons may encounter challenges such as insufficient available bone, soft tissue, damage to the inferior alveolar nerve, and even the risk of bone fracture. In this study, a new design concept of mandibular patient-specific implants for severely atrophic ridges followed by finite element evaluation was presented to investigate the mechanical functionality of the concept.

The current techniques in dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty: a comprehensive review.

Background: An essential aspect of rhinoplasty is the enhancement of the nasal dorsal contour by performing dorsal augmentation (DA) rhinoplasty. A wide range of techniques are available for DA as the demand for aesthetic nasal refinement grows. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current techniques used in DA rhinoplasty.

Tissue engineering innovations to enhance osseointegration in immediate dental implant loading: A narrative review.

The demand for efficient and accelerated osseointegration in dental implantology has led to the exploration of innovative tissue engineering strategies. Immediate implant loading reduces treatment duration and necessitates robust osseointegration to ensure long-term implant success. This review article discusses the current studies of tissue engineering innovations for enhancing osseointegration in immediate dental implant loading in the recent decade.

The current applications of nano and biomaterials in drug delivery of dental implant.

Background And Aim: Dental implantology has revolutionized oral rehabilitation, offering a sophisticated solution for restoring missing teeth. Despite advancements, issues like infection, inflammation, and osseointegration persist. Nano and biomaterials, with their unique properties, present promising opportunities for enhancing dental implant therapies by improving drug delivery systems.

Investigation of the expression levels of miR-21, miR-132, miR-29a, miR-204, and miR-138 in patient's plasma with primary OSCCs.

This is the eighth most malignant tumor in the world, causing the highest incidence and malignancy rate of all cancers in the mouth and maxillofacial region. In cells, miRNAs regulate development, differentiation, proliferation, and differentiation, and miRNA expression is a better indicator of physiological status than DNA expression. miR-21, miR-132, miR-29a, miR-204, and miR-138 levels were measured in plasma from patients with primary OSCC and healthy controls.

Non-traumatic myositis ossificans of the Right masseter muscle: a case report and review of the literature.

Myositis ossificans (MO) is a rare disease in which ossification develops in the muscle or soft tissue. MO traumatica is recognized by ossification of the soft tissues after acute or repetitive trauma, burns, or surgical procedures. It usually involves the extremity muscles.

Metastasis of a prostate adenocarcinoma to mandible: A case report and review of literature.

Dentists and physicians should include oral metastases originating from prostate adenocarcinoma as a rare differential diagnosis of jaw lesions that can produce periosteal reactions in the radiographic features such as osteosarcoma.
