The ability of different forms of autogenous tooth graft to promote bone regeneration: a network meta-analysis.

Purpose: Several forms of autogenous tooth graft have been presented. However, it is still unclear which form provides better bone formation and is the best to use clinically. This network meta-analysis aimed to thoroughly evaluate the available literature on the ability of different forms of the autogenous tooth graft to promote bone regeneration, in order to explore if any specific type or method of processing would result in better overall outcomes.

Impact of type and position of abutment connection on microstrain distribution: an study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate microstrains around two non-parallel implant-supported prostheses and different abutment connections and positions under vertical static load using strain gauges.

Materials And Methods: 4 models simulating the mandibular unilateral free-end were fabricated. 8 implants (4.

The Accuracy of Dental Implant Placement With Different Methods of Computer-Assisted Implant Surgery: A Network Meta-Analysis of Clinical Studies.

Objective: Computer-assisted implant surgery (CAIS) has been introduced as a tool to aid in reaching a more accurate implant position. The aim of this network meta-analysis was to compare all the available CAIS techniques and obtain collective evidence on the method that offers the highest accuracy compared to freehand implant placement.

Materials And Methods: Database search was done in PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane library in addition to extensive search in the gray literature and related systematic reviews, aiming to find clinical studies that compared any CAIS technique with another, or with freehand implant placement.

Radiographic changes after alveolar ridge preservation using autogenous raw tooth particles versus xenograft: A prospective controlled clinical trial.

Objective: The use of extracted teeth has been introduced as an option for bone grafting. However, the current method requires special machines and solutions, posing significant time and cost. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of autogenous raw tooth particles (RTP), a grafting material made from a ground tooth using basic equipment, for alveolar ridge preservation.

Cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive versus silk sutures for mandibular third molar surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: Cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive has been presented as an alternative to sutures and several studies have compared them. The objective of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive on postoperative pain and swelling, following mandibular third molar surgery.

Materials And Methods: Database search was conducted in MEDLINE/PubMed and Scopus, along with extensive search in the grey literature, including randomized and non-randomized clinical trials that applied cyanoacrylate adhesive for closing mandibular third molar surgical sites and compared it with silk sutures, assessing postoperative pain and swelling.
