This technique report describes a fully digital workflow in which two surgical guides (i.e. one for alveolar bone reduction and the other for implant placement) are magnetically connected to ensure stability during full-arch implant surgery following guided bone reduction. Digital prosthesis design as well as virtual bone reduction and implant planning are developed from the superimposition of facial, intraoral and CBCT scans. With this technique, different surgical guides and interim poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) fixed prosthesis are precisely connected with magnets after being digitally designed and 3D-printed. As a result, such magnetic connection allows for satisfactory stability of the implant surgical guide, as well as of the interim fixed PMMA fixed prosthesis during capture of screw-retained abutments.

Background And Purpose:  Evidence for long-term outcomes following acetabular fractures in older adults is limited. We aimed to evaluate mortality, complications, and need for subsequent surgical procedures in operatively and nonoperatively treated older patients with acetabular fractures.

Methods: Patients aged ≥ 70 years with acetabular fractures treated at Uppsala University Hospital between 2010 and 2020 were included.

Objective: This study aimed at investigating implant survival rate and marginal bone loss (MBL) around extra-short implants. The impact of the loading protocol and of the use of an intermediate abutment was also evaluated, to explore possible differences in terms of the outcome measures.

Materials And Methods: Patients with single or multiple mandibular or maxillary posterior edentulism rehabilitated using extra-short 5-6 mm long implants were included.

Objective: Relapse after orthodontic treatment remains a crucial problem. Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) accelerate osteoblastogenesis and inhibit osteoclastogenesis. However, their effect on tooth movement during the retention phase of orthodontic treatment has not been studied.

Purpose: Radiation Therapy (RT) can modulate the immune system and generate anti-tumor T cells. However, this anti-tumor-activity is countered by radiation-induced immunosuppression (RIIS). Clinical advantages of proactively sparing RT dose to immune rich organs have not previously been evaluated.

Cherubism is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia, affecting the maxilla and/or mandible. The condition typically has childhood onset, followed by progression until puberty, with subsequent regression. Cherubism lesions share histological features with giant cell tumor of bone, where high-dose monthly denosumab is an effective medical treatment.
