The nonremovable reconstruction of the atrophic mandible is possible with basal osseointegrated implants in an immediate-load procedure. Between 4 and 5 implants are necessary to form a reliable foundation for a fixed bridge. The vertical dimension and the aesthetic appearance may be reconstructed in the desired way.

Development of morphologically diverse benign neoplasms preceding metachronous oral squamous cell carcinoma: A rare case report.

Eighteen months after the resection and micro-vascular reconstruction of central ossifying fibroma of the right mandible in a 54-year-old male patient, there occur two synchronous neoplasms, basal cell adenoma (BSA) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Two years after reconstructive surgery, the patient reported a second primary OSCC on the left retromolar mucosa. This case reports two morphologically diverse benign neoplasms preceding metachronous OSCC in one individual.

Observations of maxillary (upper bill) bending in hummingbirds have been considered an optical illusion, yet a recent description of out-of-phase opening and closing between their bill base and tip suggests a genuine capacity for bill bending. We investigate bill kinematics during nectar feeding in six species of hummingbirds. We employed geometric morphometrics to identify bending zones and combined these data with measurements of bill flexural rigidity from micro-computed tomography scans to better understand the flexing mechanism.

Primary intraosseous carcinoma not otherwise specified (PIOC NOS) is a rare tumor assumed to arise from the epithelium, such as odontogenic cysts or benign tumors. Its clinical and imaging diagnoses are often challenging, especially in the early stages, as it mimics jaw cysts and benign tumors, and no specific findings have been identified. This report presents the case of a 66-year-old male patient with mandibular PIOC, highlighting the imaging findings over time.

Introduction: Segmental mandibular reconstruction using free fibula flaps and implants is challenging for maxillofacial surgeons and prosthodontists. This case report describes the successful use of Corticobasal implant reconstructive prostheses after a free fibula flap with five years of follow-up.
Clinical Case Presentation: A 24-year-old female presented to the clinic following segmental defect reconstruction using fibula reconstruction, owing to squamous cell carcinoma resection and seeking prosthetic treatment.
