Alveolar ridge preservation with autogenous tooth graft: A histomorphometric analysis of 36 consecutive procedures.

Background: The aim of this study was to analyze the histomorphometric findings of autogenous tooth grafting (ATG) for alveolar ridge preservation (ARP), using graft material from extracted teeth. Variations by sex, age and location of extracted teeth, as well as any associated complications, were also assessed.

Materials And Methods: This prospective, single-cohort study was conducted using ATG placed in extraction sockets.

Effectiveness of conservative treatment of dentigerous cyst in the pediatric patient: A systematic review.

The dentigerous cyst is defined as a pathological cavity whose origin is produced by developmental alterations. Most usual treatment is the enucleation of the cyst with the extraction of the tooth. The current approach tends to preserve the tooth.

Maxillary Sinus Augmentation with Autogenous Tooth Grafting Material: A Systematic Review.

The aim of this systematic review was to determine whether autogenous tooth grafting material (ATGM) is as safe and effective as other bone substitutes used for maxillary sinus augmentation procedures, evaluating histomorphometric and/or histological data, implant primary stability, associated complications and radiographic bone height measurements. An automated electronic search was conducted using four databases (Medline/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library), supplemented by a manual search, to identify clinical human studies using particulate ATGM for the aforementioned procedure. The included studies had a sample size of at least four patients and were published before 31st July 2024.

Cyanoacrylate versus suture as flap closure methods in mandibular third molar surgery: a split-mouth randomized controlled clinical study.

Background: Sutures have been the standard flap closure method of choice following mandibular third molar surgery but can lead to some complications. Tissue adhesives, including cyanoacrylate, have emerged as alternative flap closure method in this surgery to overcome such drawbacks. However, limited clinical trials can be found.

Assessment of Changes in the Outcome of Autogenous Tooth Grafts Over Time: A Clinical Study Evaluating Periodontal Healing in Bone Defects After Lower Third Molar Removal.

Background: The removal of impacted lower third molars (ILTMs) is associated with bone defects in the distal area of second molars. Different methods have been described to minimize these defects.

Purpose: The primary objective was to assess changes in probing depth (PD) over time (up to 36 months) between test (grafted) and control (ungrafted) groups; the graft was obtained from the extracted ILTM.
