A 21-year-old male patient was diagnosed with EIRR and hypercementosis after presenting with pain and significant damage to his lower right first molar.

Introduction: Alveolar cleft grafting is crucial in cleft lip and palate rehabilitation, promoting maxillary continuity and facilitating dental development. While autologous bone grafts are the gold standard, combining them with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and xenografts like Bio-Oss has the potential to enhance bone regeneration and long-term stability. This study aimed to evaluate the synergistic effects of combining autologous cortico-cancellous bone grafts, PRP, and Bio-Oss in alveolar cleft repair.

Background: Various surgical techniques have recently been developed for periodontal tissue regeneration, especially those do not involve any incisions in the interdental papillae at the regeneration site. These techniques have significant advantages for obtaining clinical attachment gain with least amount of gingival recession, however, may also have disadvantages such as limited field of surgical view, difficulty in debridement, and limited access only from the buccal side. This case report addresses a 2-year follow-up with a novel surgical approach to achieve periodontal regeneration that overcomes these limitations: the flexible tunnel technique (FTT).

Background: The continuous development in digital prosthodontics allowed the customization of attachments and retentive inserts which offers an easy and cheap solution for regular maintenance of locator overdentures during daily practice. The present study compared the change in retention values of the fully digitally manufactured custom-made locator attachment retentive insert with the ready-made ones after insertion, removal, and masticatory cycles.
Methods: A complete denture was constructed over a mandibular edentulous epoxy model.
