- The study reviews different types of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) artifacts around dental implants and what causes them.
- The research involved analyzing 9 studies from various databases between 2010 and 2020, focusing on 306 dental implants made of materials like titanium and zirconia.
- Key artifacts identified include beam-hardening and streaking artifacts, with factors such as implant material, bone type, and imaging parameters affecting their occurrence, highlighting the importance of careful imaging protocols in dental implant procedures.
Background: To evaluate the impact of oral health on the quality of life (QOL) of individuals undergoing cancer treatment at the time of diagnosis of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ).
Material And Methods: The present cross-sectional study analyzed patients with MRONJ from 2013 to 2019. The collected data included demographic data, base disease, medications associated with MRONJ, route of administration and time of use, signs, symptoms, and tomographic features of acute MRONJ, staging according to American Association of Oral and maxillofacial Surgeons position paper 2014 (AAOMS), type of dental treatment performed, outcome, and the responses to the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14).
Objective: Oncological treatment can cause changes in the oral cavity compromising oral functions. The aim of the study was, based on a systematic review, to draft a guide directed at the team of health professionals involved in the oral care of oncological patients.
Methods: A systematic search of the literature was performed for articles published between 2000 and April 2017.
