Guided Bone Regeneration of an Atrophic Maxilla Using Heterologous Cortical Lamina.

Alloplastic dental implants are currently the best way to replace lost teeth. In order to achieve good function and prognosis of dental implants, having bone and soft tissue to support them is necessary. When the amount of bone left is not enough to ensure the outcome of the implant, techniques such as shorts implants, zygomatic implants, or guided bone regeneration have been used.

Autogenous teeth used for bone grafting: A systematic review.

Background: Recently, bone graft materials using permanent teeth have come to light, and clinical and histological outcomes of this material have been confirmed by some studies. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the reliability of the autogenous tooth bone graft material applied to alveolar ridge augmentation procedures.

Material And Methods: A systematic review of literature was conducted analyzing articles published between 2007 and 2017.

Inflammatory Papillary Hyperplasia in a Non-Denture-Wearing Patient: A Case History Report.

Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia (IPH) is a benign lesion of the palatal mucosa. It is usually found in denture wearers but has also been reported in dentate patients with no history of wearing maxillary prostheses. This case history report describes an example of the latter and highlights the importance of professional awareness to diagnose IPH among non-denture-wearing patients.

Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia: A systematic review.

Introduction: Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia (IPH) is a benign lesion of the palatal mucosa. It is usually found in denture-wearers but also has been reported in patients without a history of use of a maxillary prosthesis use.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to review the literature to assess the prevalence of denture stomatitis and inflammatory papillary hyperplasia and the etiological factors associated.
