The aim of this study was to evaluate a Demineralized Human Dentine Matrix (DHDM) as viable biomaterial for alveolar ridge preservation in a rat model. Wistar rats were submitted to the extraction of maxillary first molars bilaterally. Sockets were filled with biomaterials and divided into 4 experimental groups (n=5): blood clot, autogenous bone, bovine-derived xenograft (BDX) and DHDM. Animals were sacrificed at 7, 14 e 28 days. Microtomography (uCT) volumetric evaluation and qualitative histological analyses were performed. Results obtained through the uCT showed similar values between the DHDM and the other experimental groups. The histological evaluation demonstrated DHDM with an unspecific inflammatory process and bone neoformation with slow reabsorption of the material. This result indicates that DHDM implanted in rat sockets is biocompatible and reduces the alveolar ridge volume loss after tooth extraction.

Background: Leukotriene B (LTB) plays a crucial role in carcinogenesis by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process associated with tumor progression. The synthesis of LTB is mediated by leukotriene A hydrolase (LTAH), and it binds to the receptors BLT and BLT. Dysregulation in LTB production is linked to the development of various pathologies.

Objectives: This preclinical ex vivo porcine study aimed to evaluate the effects of two flap advancement techniques and periosteal suturing (PS) on graft material displacement during primary wound closure in guided bone regeneration (GBR). Secondary objectives included assessing flap advancement and the impact of soft tissue characteristics on graft displacement.
Materials And Methods: Standardized two-walled horizontal bone defects were created in second premolar sites of pig hemimandibles.

Background: The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically-oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).
Methods: The technique is based on the stratification of three layers: a deep layer with a collagen sponge (CS) in the apical part of the alveolus (where the buccal bone plate was still present) to support the blood clot; a graft layer to correct the PIBD; and a superficial collagen layer to cover the graft thus providing space and enhancing clot/graft stability. Healing was obtained by primary closure.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the effects of deproteinized bovine bone mineral with collagen (DBBMC) combined with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) on facial alveolar bone augmentation in the anterior maxillary region.
Materials And Methods: Patients receiving dental implant placement with simultaneous lateral bone augmentation using DBBM (control group) or DBBMC combined with DBBM (test group) were included in the study. The radiographic assessment of facial alveolar bone, such as facial horizontal bone thickness (FHBT), facial vertical bone level (FVBL), and square of facial bone (SFB), was taken by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
