Objective: To analyze the characteristics of cases of maxillary complex injury, to sum up experiences and lessons in the clinical first aid process, to evaluate different treatment effects of maxillary complex fracture and investigate the reasons for the failure of the treatment process.
Methods: 152 cases with maxillary complex injury were analyzed retrospectively.
Results: 2 cases (1.32%) died during emergency treatment. The cure rate was 62.67% (94/ 150) in the 150 survival cases. The cure rate of closed fractures were better than open ones and surgical treatments than non-surgical ways (P < 0.05); the cure rate of surgical treatment in stage I was higher than II (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: For patients with complex injuries of maxillary, first aid failure is mainly due to bleeding or asphyxiation. Therapeutic efficacy is influenced by treatment time, surgical approach, type of treatment and so on. The key to success of treatment is dependent on the early firm internal fixation and the functional protection and restoration of injured organs or tissues.

Background/purpose: Multiple augmentation protocols are documented in the literature to rebuild the deficient alveolar ridge after tooth extraction; however, achieving adequate vertical augmentation remains the most challenging goal. This study demonstrated a novel surgical technique of early vertical ridge augmentation for post-dental extraction. This technique offers several biological and technical advantages regarding the timing of the procedure and its relative simplicity compared to other complex techniques.

This study aims to evaluate the management of oro-antral communications (OAC) and fistulas (OAF), focusing on treatment strategies based on defect size, epithelialization, and the presence of sinus infections, while exploring both traditional and emerging techniques. The systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines and registered on PROSPERO (CDR ID 623251). Using targeted keywords, articles in English published within the last 10 years were analyzed from databases such as PubMed, WoS and Scopus, selecting only clinical studies on human patients.

: Interincisive midline deviation is frequent. Determining the cause (dental versus skeletal) is crucial for treatment planning. This study assessed the null hypothesis that neither clinical dental midline shift nor the temporomandibular disorder (TMD)-affected side correlate with maxillary/mandibular asymmetry.
