Crestal approach for maxillary sinus augmentation in individuals with limited alveolar bone height: An observational study.

In cases where the bone presence is <4 mm, the lateral approach is typically the first approach considered. Nevertheless, for patients who prefer minimally invasive procedures or wish to reduce postoperative discomfort, the crestal approach is a viable option. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of crestal sinus augmentation for achieving adequate bone in individuals with residual bone measuring <3 mm.

Impact of Polydeoxyribonucleotides on the Morphology, Viability, and Osteogenic Differentiation of Gingiva-Derived Stem Cell Spheroids.

: Polydeoxyribonucleotides (PDRN), composed of DNA fragments derived from salmon DNA, is widely recognized for its regenerative properties. It has been extensively used in medical applications, such as dermatology and wound healing, due to its ability to enhance cellular metabolic activity, stimulate angiogenesis, and promote tissue regeneration. In the field of dentistry, PDRN has shown potential in promoting periodontal healing and bone regeneration.

Vitamin E Enhances Cell Viability and the Osteogenic Differentiation of Cell Spheroids Made of Gingiva-Derived Stem Cells.

: Vitamin E is reported to expedite new bone formation in animal models, and this has led to a decrease in the time needed for treatment. In this study, human gingiva-derived stem cell-derived spheroids were examined to determine the effects of vitamin E on cell survival, osteogenic differentiation, and mineralization. : Human gingiva-derived stem cells were used to create spheroids, which were then cultivated with vitamin E at doses of 0, 0.

Effects of Enamel Matrix Derivative on Cell Spheroids Made of Stem Cells Obtained from the Gingiva on Osteogenic Differentiation.

: A derivative of the enamel matrix was used to speed up periodontal regeneration, including the formation of new cementum, alveolar bone, and periodontal ligament. In this study, human gingiva-derived stem cell-derived cell spheroids were used to assess the effects of an enamel matrix derivative on cell viability, osteogenic differentiation, and mineralization. : Human gingiva-derived stem cells were used to create spheroids, which were then coupled with unloaded control groups and an enamel matrix derivative at a final concentration of 2.
