Objective: The alveolar processes of the maxilla and mandible provide the bony framework for tooth support. Osteoporotic changes of these bones may directly affect tooth stability and retention. This report reviews studies that have evaluated the relationship between systemic osteoporosis and oral alveolar bone mass as well as the effect of estrogen use on oral alveolar bone and tooth retention.
Design: Ten years (1989-1998) literature review.
Results: Studies reviewed demonstrate a positive correlation between systemic bone mass and systemic osteoporosis to oral bone resorption. Estrogen replacement therapy affects oral bone in a manner similar to the way it affects other sites.
Conclusions: It is evident that postmenopausal estrogen users may retain more teeth after menopause. Sustained oral health and better tooth retention are potentially additional benefits for hormone replacement therapy users after menopause.

HISTOMORPHOMETRIC AND IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL EVALUATION OF BONE HEALING AROUND IMPLANTS PLACED USING PIEZOSURGERY VS CONVENTIONAL DRILLS: A SPLITMOUTH PILOT STUDY.
J Oral Implantol
January 2025
Department of Neuroscience, Reproductive Sciences and Dentistry, Federico II University of Naples, Naples, Italy.
Purpose: This pilot study evaluated and compared histomorphometric and immunohistochemical characteristics of peri-implant bone tissue after implant site preparation using piezoelectric tips versus conventional drills.
Material And Methods: Six patients with bilateral partial edentulism underwent a splitmouth protocol. Twelve alveolar ridges were randomized into six control implant sites prepared using conventional drills (Drill Group); and six test implant sites prepared using piezoelectric implant inserts (Piezo Group).

Exploring the application of minimally invasive techniques in the extraction of impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM), to achieve the treatment goal of "less trauma, short time, fast recovery", remains the focus of dentists. For now, the IMTM are mostly extracted in pieces after removing the crown and root resistance by bone removal and tooth segmentation, using 45°reverse-angle high speed turbine, piezosurgery, chisel or other dynamic system. However, There is a lack of principle-level parsing in different provinces and primary hospitals, while experience is still the main factor in avoiding excessive bone removal in complex IMTM extraction, as well as optimizing the specific position and angle of the parting teeth, finding the fulcrum and designing the best dislocation path when there is root resistance.

Dynamic navigation technology can "real-time guide" the implantologist to place the implant in the alveolar bone of the missing tooth area according to the preoperative design of the optimal site and path, making the whole implant surgery process more safe and precise. In order to further promote the standardized application of oral implant dynamic navigation technology, China Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics has convened distinguished experts to engage in deliberations and develop the standard. This standard covers the basic requirements, indications and contraindications, operation procedures, common complications and treatment measures, and accuracy verification.

Contemp Clin Dent
December 2024
Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, Hazaribag College of Dental Sciences and Hospital, Hazaribag, Jharkhand, India.
Objective: The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different penetration depths of micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement over 60 days. In addition, the amount of pain and discomfort caused by the MOP was evaluated.
Materials And Methods: A total of 22 patients (18-30 years) who need fixed orthodontic treatment were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups.
