Article Synopsis
- This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare peri-implant vertical bone loss between immediate loading of implant crowns using the one abutment at one time (AOT) protocol and abutment removal (AR).
- A total of five relevant studies were included, which showed significantly less vertical bone loss with the AOT protocol compared to AR.
- However, while AOT led to less bone loss, this may not have a clinically important impact on aesthetics, and findings should be viewed with caution.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of complications after orthognathic surgery comparing piezo-surgery with conventional osteotomy.
Methods: We conducted this study according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We performed a systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, Lilacs, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Google Scholar, and OpenThesis to identify randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials (RCTs and nRCTs, respectively) comparing patient outcomes (operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative swelling, pain, neurosensitivity) after orthognathic surgery by piezoelectric or conventional osteotomy.
Unlabelled: The traumatic bone cyst is characterized by the presence of an asymptomatic sinus devoid of epithelial lining, which is rarely found in the jaws.
Objective: To describe the clinical, surgical and radiographic findings of traumatic bone cysts.
Material And Method: A retrospective study was made of patients diagnosed with traumatic bone cysts at an oral pathology department from 1992 to 2007.
