Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the survival rate of dental implants inserted in an alveolar cleft area where one or more bone graft procedures were performed and to identify possible factors that affect the survival rate.

Materials And Methods: The available data from 78 implants placed in 64 patients with grafted alveolar clefts were retrospectively analysed. Statistical analyses were performed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, log-rank tests and univariable Cox proportional hazard models.

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) and mucolipidosis II and III (ML II and III) often manifest with orofacial (progressive) abnormalities, which may have a major impact on quality of life. However, because these patients have multiple somatic health issues, orofacial problems are easily overlooked in clinical practice and available literature on this topic solely consists of case reports, small case series, and small cohort studies. The aim of this systematic review was to gain more insight in the nature and extent of orofacial abnormalities in MPS, ML II, and III.

Background: Mandibular fractures, especially condylar fractures, are one of the most common facial fractures. Trauma to this region could possibly compromise masticatory performance, which is a vital function for humans.

Objective: To objectively determine masticatory performance (Mixing Ability Test; MAT) in patients treated for a unilateral condylar fracture, thereby comparing patients in open and closed treatment groups, and assessing whether there is a positive relationship between this performance and subjective mandibular function (Mandibular Functional Impairment Questionnaire; MFIQ).
