Implant Survival in Renal-Transplanted Patients: A Prospective Long-Term Study.

The present study aims to assess the feasibility of implant rehabilitation in kidney-transplanted patients. Patients with kidney transplantation included in periodontal supportive care and at least one year of dialysis with mono- or partial edentulism were eligible for this study. Histomorphometric evaluation of the harvested bone was matched with radiological bone assessment.

Evaluation of the efficacy of inter-dental brush and dental floss for peri-implant mucositis: A crossover randomized clinical trial.

Objectives: To evaluate the most effective method for mechanical inter-dental plaque removal between inter-dental brushes (IDB) and dental floss (DF), in addition to toothbrushing in patients affected by peri-implant mucositis (PIM); to identify possible factors related to the patient or to the single implant-supported element that could influence plaque accumulation and inflammation of peri-implant tissues.

Methods: Forty patients with PIM were recruited. They were randomly assigned to two different groups depending on inter-dental device used (IDB or DF).

IMPLANT SURVIVAL IN RENAL-TRANSPLANTED PATIENTS: A PROSPECTIVE LONG-TERM STUDY.

The present study aims to assess the feasibility of implant rehabilitation in kidney-transplanted patients. Patients with kidney transplantation included in periodontal supportive care and at least one year of dialysis with mono- or partial edentulism were eligible for this study. Histomorphometric evaluation of the harvested bone was matched with radiological bone assessment.

Mandibular metastasis of pulmonary adenocarcinoma: How unexpected could it be?

Objective: Metastatic tumours of bone must be considered in all patients with unexplained bone pain and particularly in patients who present with a known cancer, localised pain at multiple sites, and radiographic findings suggestive of metastasis. The purpose of this report was to present a case of a pathological fracture of the mandible as a consequence of metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

Materials And Methods: In July 2018 a 68-year-old male patient was hospitalised because of pulmonary adenocarcinoma and attended our department for an oral maxillo-facial evaluation.

Epidemiological aspects of dental trauma associated with maxillofacial injures: Ten years of clinical experience in Trieste, Italy.

Background/aims: The prevalence of dental injuries in patients with facial fractures is relevant. Epidemiologically, dental trauma in association with facial fractures generally affects the age group between 20 and 40 years old, with a higher prevalence in males. The aim of this retrospective study was to identify the incidence and etiology of dental trauma associated with facial fractures over a 10-year period.
