Introduction: The management of gingival recession associated with esthetic concerns and root hypersensitivity is challenging, and its sequelae is based on the assessment of etiological factors and the degree of tissue involvement. Procedures using pedicle flaps, free soft tissue grafts, combination of pedicle flaps with grafts, barrier membranes, and the use of platelet concentrates are all effective for this purpose. The use of the third-generation platelet concentrate, advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF), has evolved as a promising regenerative material for root coverage procedure wherein it acts as a scaffold and also accelerates wound healing due to its dense fibrin meshwork.
Case Presentation: This case report, discusses treating an isolated maxillary Miller Class I recession in a 25-year-old male patient by a periosteal inversion method along with the A-PRF membrane. A partial thickness flap was reflected; periosteum was inverted; and an A-PRF membrane was placed over the denuded root surface which aided in enhanced regeneration; 100% root coverage was obtained as seen in follow-up visits.
Conclusion: The periosteal inversion technique along with an A-PRF membrane seems to be a novel approach in managing an isolated Miller Class I maxillary gingival recession.

Objectives: Despite the difficulty in distinguishing between squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) on the basis of medical imaging examinations, the two conditions have completely different treatment methods and prognoses. Therefore, differentiation of SCC from MRONJ on imaging examinations is very important. This study aimed to distinguish SCC from MRONJ by performing texture analysis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) short-tau inversion recovery images.

Background: Conventional MR pulse sequences result in poor signal from low T2 cortical bone because the minimum achievable echo time is limited. A sequence resulting in improved bone contrast is desirable.
Purpose: To evaluate the image quality and diagnostic performance of grayscale inversion zero echo time imaging (GI-ZTE) and grayscale inversion T1-weighted imaging (GI-T1WI) compared with computed tomography (CT).

Background: Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a pediatric autoinflammatory disorder presenting with sterile inflammatory bone lesions. Whole-body MRI (WBMRI) has most recently emerged for disease assessment, but data are limited.
Purpose: The purpose is to evaluate the imaging findings and patterns of CNO on WBMRI in a series of Greek pediatric patients.

Introduction: Several techniques and methods have been proposed to cover alveolar bone after tooth extraction when soft tissue is lacking. Some authors recommend soft tissue flap techniques, and others advocate different types of materials for socket covering. In this article, the authors use a modified buccal inversion technique for adequate coverage of the alveolar ridge to ensure its preservation and to minimize soft tissue shrinkage and loss of keratinized gingiva after tooth extraction.

Purpose: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious complication of treatment with bisphosphonates or antiangiogenic inhibitors. MRONJ has four stages (0-3); however, stage 0 MRONJ is difficult to detect using computed tomography (CT). This study aimed to quantitatively assess the mandibular bone marrow using texture analysis to detect stage 0 MRONJ from CT images.
