Management of Zygomatic Arch Fractures by Intraoral Open Reduction and Transbuccal Fixation: A Technical Note.

Fractures of the zygomatic arch are common due to its anatomical prominence. The post-traumatic restoration of the arch form is important to maintain the midfacial symmetry and anteroposterior projection of the face. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of fractured arch is indicated in specific clinical presentations.

Maxillary Sinus Augmentation Using Xenograft and Choukroun's Platelet-Rich Fibrin as Grafting Material: A Radiological Study.

Aim: The objective of the study was to assess the efficacy of xenograft (BIO-OSS) and platelet-rich fibrin in maxillary sinus augmentation using lateral window approach.

Materials And Methods: A total of 22 direct sinus lifts were done within a period of two years, and the results were analyzed using two parameters: (1) augmented bone height and (2) bone density in the maxillary sinus. Pre-operative and three-month CT scan was taken for all the 22 patients.
