What are the Consequences of Incorrect Handling in the Treatment of Blunt-Cut Lip Injuries?

This study aimed report two cases of blunt-cut lip injury which occurred in postoperatory dehiscence. Patients were referred to the emergence attendance and the clinical examination revealed extensive laceration on the upper and lower lips of both patients, highly contaminated with asphalt residue. The affected regions were properly cleaned with saline and antiseptic solution, and, under local anesthesia, suturing was performed in layers in the muscle and oral mucosa region with 4-0 resorbable thread and in the skin region with 6-0 non-absorbable thread.

Rehabilitation of Severely Atrophic Mandible: A 3-Year Follow-Up Protocol.

Severe bone atrophies are considered a challenge in the rehabilitation process. In clinical situations involving excessive vertical bone deficiency in edentulous mandibles, there is a risk of fracture and frequently the need for an approach that involves highly complex procedures. In this context, simultaneous three-dimensional bone reconstruction associated with rigid fixation is a viable alternative to optimize longevity and avoid failures in these cases.

The influence of acetylsalicylic acid on bone regeneration: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is commonly used as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that interferes with multiple biological pathways. ASA acts by stimulating osteogenesis and inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. Thus, the objective of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of ASA in the bone regeneration in animal models.

Successful Management of Ludwig's Angina due to Dental Implant Displacement: A Rare Case Report.

Dental implant surgery is a common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery practices. Extensive training, skill, and experience allow this procedure to be performed with an atraumatic approach, but like any surgical technique, it is subject to accidents and complications. This is an unusual clinical case of an accidental displacement of an implant into the submandibular space that progressed to Ludwig's angina, and it has not yet been described in the literature.

In vivo evaluation of resorbable supercritical CO -treated collagen membranes for class III furcation-guided tissue regeneration.

The study evaluated the effects of a Supercritical CO (scCO ) on a commercially available decellularized/delipidized naturally derived porcine pericardium collagen membrane, Vitala®. The Vitala® and scCO treated experimental membranes were evaluated for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) of periodontal tissue in class III furcation defects utilizing a dog model. Physical material characterization was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
