Ozone Improved Bone Dynamic of Female Rats Using Zoledronate.

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of ozone (OZN) therapy on the dynamics of bone tissue in ovariectomized rats treated with zoledronic acid (ZOL). Female Wistar rats aged 6 months ( = 110) were subjected to bilateral ovariectomy (OVX). At month 3 post-OVX, 10 animals were euthanized to characterize the bone tissue architecture using microtomography (micro-CT).

A triple-blind randomized clinical trial of different associations between dexamethasone and non-steroids anti-inflammatories for preemptive action in third molar extractions.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the preemptive analgesic effects of dexamethasone (DEX) alone or combined with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in third molar surgeries. The subjects were divided into five groups (n = 20 teeth/group); subjects received only 8 mg of dexamethasone 1 h before the surgical procedure (DEX group), or in combination with etodolac (DEX + ETO), ketorolac (DEX + KET), ibuprofen (DEX + IBU), loxoprofen (DEX + LOX). Paracetamol 750 mg was provided as the number of rescue analgesics (NRA).

Algorithm for Treatment of Supernumerary Nasal Tooth.

The presence of a tooth in the nasal cavity is a rare condition. There is an even more rare association, which is the presence with the mineral's deposition and formation of rhinoliths. This report shows a case of rare nasal tooth associated with rhinolithiasis and describes its surgical treatment based on an algorithm.
