Article Synopsis
- - The study reviews various guided tissue regeneration techniques (GRTs) used to heal bone defects after endodontic treatment, noticing a lack of consensus on the best methods based on existing literature.
- - A systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) were conducted by assessing randomized clinical trials (RCTs) with at least a 6-month follow-up, ending up with 11 studies that examined 6 different GRT techniques.
- - Results indicated that the combination technique of MB + Os had significantly better outcomes compared to controls and other methods, specifically showing the highest level of certainty in effectiveness (P-score = 0.93).
A Replicable and Reproducible Digital Method for Quantifying Maxillary Sinus Airway Changes after Sinus Lifts Using the Lateral Window Approach Technique-A Retrospective Study.
J Pers Med
October 2021
Unlabelled: In the present retrospective study, we aimed to assess the replicability and reproducibility of a novel digital measurement technique for analyzing the volumes of the left and right maxillary sinuses and the nasal and maxillary sinus airway complex after a sinus lift procedure using the lateral window approach, to provide an accurate measurement technique for easily applying in clinical practice and to allow pre-operative assessment of maxillary sinus lift surgery, avoiding complications and making surgery more predictable.
Material And Methods: Thirty patients with partially edentulous posterior maxilla were selected and submitted to bilateral sinus lift using the lateral window approach technique, with grafting materials selected and submitted to cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans, both pre- and postoperatively. Then, datasets were uploaded to therapeutic digital planning software to measure the volume of the right and left maxillary sinuses and the nasal and maxillary sinus airway complex.
Failure Rate, Marginal Bone Loss, and Pink Esthetic with Socket-Shield Technique for Immediate Dental Implant Placement in the Esthetic Zone. A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Biology (Basel)
June 2021
: To compare the failure rate, marginal bone loss, and pink esthetic for the socket-shield technique and the conventional technique for immediate dental implant placement in the esthetic zone. : A systematic literature review and meta-analysis, based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations, of clinical studies that evaluated the failure rate, marginal bone loss, and pink esthetic with the socket-shield technique for immediate dental implant placement in the esthetic zone was performed. A total of 4 databases were consulted in the literature search: PubMed-MEDLINE, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science.
