The occurrence of dental traumas in adult patients is on the rise, according to the literature, and require correct and adequate treatment specific to each fracture in order to preserve the remaining tooth. In this article, two different fracture cases are reported. Based upon these cases, it may be concluded that there are situations that require the clinician to have a multidisciplinary vision of the different dental specializations in order to effectively treat the patient.

Extensive and closely coordinated remodeling processes take place in the periodontal ligament (PDL) and the adjacent bone during orthodontic tooth movement. In complex orthodontic cases, it is necessary to move teeth into an augmented bony defect, for example, in patients with cleft lip, alveolus, and palate. The important role of the PDL during tooth movement is well accepted but not fully understood.

Achieving the optimal emergence profile: the role of soft tissue grafting and pontic site development.

Hard and soft tissue remodelling after tooth extraction may result in a concave profile at the subsequent edentulous ridge. This defect may result in a sub-optimal aesthetic transition zone between the soft tissue and the pontic, which may appear to sit on the ridge, rather than emanating from within the ridge, as would a natural tooth. To optimise aesthetics, pontic site augmentation (PSA) (increasing the volume at the pontic site) and pontic site development (PSD) (remodelling the tissue at the pontic site) may provide a solution.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of autogenous bone grafts used before dental implant placement through long-term analysis using 3D modeling.
  • Nine patients participated, with evaluations occurring at three key time points: before grafting, after grafting, and post-implant placement, using digital scans of dental casts.
  • The results showed accurate superimposition of the casts, but indicated a significant decrease in the volume of the anterior maxilla, with reductions ranging from 14% to 38% after implant placement.

Generalized severe periodontitis, with the potential for additional tooth loss, is one of the most common forms of periodontitis today. Early diagnosis and treatment approaches are of utmost importance. Therapeutic measures must be well thought out and follow a strict sequence.

: The loss of teeth in the posterior maxillary region often leads to significant alveolar bone resorption and maxillary sinus pneumatization, complicating dental implant placement. Maxillary sinus grafting, typically using autogenous bone, is a common solution. However, autogenous bone grafts require additional surgical procedures, leading to increased morbidity.
