Immediate Loading Using the Digitalized Customized Restoration of Single-tooth Implants Placed in Fresh Extraction Sockets in the Aesthetic Anterior Maxilla: A 10-Year Prospective Study of Marginal Bone Level.

Aim: The objective of this study was to assess marginal bone level around single implants inserted in fresh extraction sockets in the anterior maxillary region and instantly restored with computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing customized temporary crowns cemented on the final abutment.

Materials And Methods: A total of 20 patients (15 females and 5 males, with a mean age of 30 years), where 20 were placed in fresh extraction sockets. After raising a full-thickness flap, atraumatic extraction was performed the implant site was prepared and fixtures were stabilized on the palatal bone wall.

Decompression of a Dentigerous Cyst Treatment in Mixed Dentition: A Case Report with 5 Years Follow-Up.

Among developmental odontogenic cysts, the dentigerous type is the second most prevailing one. It is a benign intraosseous lesion commonly affecting the mandibular region. Dentigerous cysts present a high prevalence in children as they can be caused by the eruption of permanent teeth or the infection of deciduous ones.

Treatment of Mucous Retention Cyst in Association with Sinus Lift and Implant Placement: A Case Report with 1-Year Follow-Up.

Sinus lift augmentation techniques, lateral or crestal approaches, have been well documented, with bone substitute graft, or without bone material, with immediate or delayed implant placement as a treatment option for the atrophic maxilla in the posterior area. However, the sinus lift procedures performed in the presence of cysts, mucoceles, mucous retention cysts (MRCs), and antral pseudo-cysts could mainly decrease the sinus cavity volume and could increase the possibility of ostium obstruction and might lead to infection followed by failure of the grafting procedure. A radiological assessment should be made with computerized tomography (CT) or cone-beam CT to evaluate the remaining bone volume and to detect any pathology in the sinus.

Benign mesenchymal odontogenic tumors of the maxillofacial bones: A report of 3 cases with 3 years follow-up.

Benign mesenchymal odontogenic tumors are lesions derived from the mesenchymal components of the tooth-forming apparatus and are consequently found within the jawbone. Benign fibro-osseous tumors are part of this category of lesions in which normal bone is substituted, initially by fibrous tissue and within time become infiltrated by osteoid and cementoid elements. They are asymptomatic, slow-growing lesions and remain undiagnosed until swelling of the face becomes prominent and they share similar radiological characteristics.

Angiographic Embolization with Histoacryl in Combination with Direct Injection of Bone Cement of an Intraosseous Venous Malformation of the Mandible: Report of a Case with 22-Year Follow-Up.

Vascular malformations of the maxillofacial region are unusual, and they occur more rarely in bone than in soft tissue. Mandibular intraosseous vascular lesions represent 0.5-1.

Infected Facial Tissue Fillers Caused by Dental Infection.

Injectable dermal fillers are widely used for facial rejuvenation; they help reshape the facial contours by treating volume loss due to aging changes. Facial fillers may become infected following a dental infection. In this report, we present a case of a 44-year-old female patient who presented with a swelling in her upper right buccal region following dental treatment of her second maxillary right premolar.

Isolated Bone Lesions in the Mandible and Maxilla of Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis Treated with Fractionated Stereotactic Low-Dose Radiotherapy: Case Report and 5-Year Follow-Up.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a benign histiocytic disorder touching both genders and can occur at any age. It is currently classified by the Histiocyte Society as an inflammatory myeloid neoplasm of mixed cellularity. Clinically, it is illustrated by single or multiple osteolytic bone lesions associated with ulceration of the skin and soft tissues.

Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the Mandible in a 9-Year-Old Male Patient Treated with a Conservative Surgical Treatment: A Case Report and 15-Year Follow-Up.

Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental disorder of the bone that originates from a genetic defect disturbing the osteogenesis leading to the replacement of normal bone with the excess proliferation of fibrous tissue. It can be associated with hyperpigmentation of the skin and endocrine disorders. Fibrous dysplasia can manifest in a monostotic form affecting one bone or in a polyostotic form involving several bones.
