MANDIBULAR BONE BLOCK GRAFT FOR LOCALISED RIDGE AUGMENTATION- A CASE REPORT
Get PDFDental implants in the anterior mandible is a challenge for clinicians because of patients exacting esthetic demands and difficult pre-existing anatomy. The placement of endosteal implants requires adequate bone volume for successful osseointegration. When themorphology of the bone does not allow proper implant placement, there are various bone augmentation procedures like bone grafts, which may be autografts, xenografts, allografts or alloplasts aids in reconstruction of the residual alveolar ridge for ideal implant placement. Among various bone grafts, the autogenous bone graft is still the “gold standard” for bone augmentation procedures. The symphysis region can act as an excellent source of autogenous bone for augmentation of alveolar ridge deficiencies. The purpose of this case report was to increase the vertical and horizontal ridge augmentation with autogenous bone block graft for implant placement
ASSESSMENT OF POSITION OF MENTAL FORAMEN, INTERMENTAL FORAMEN DISTANCE AND ITS CORRELATION WITH AGE AND GENDER AMONG PEDIATRIC PATIENTS
Get PDFThe aim of this study was to assess the position of mental foramen, inter-mental foramen distance, and its correlation with age and gender between 9 to 12 years of age
Comparative Efficacy of Forsus FRD and Twin Block appliance in Class II Malocclusion Correction
Get PDFThe Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device (FRD) and Twin Block appliances are used to correct Class IImalocclusions. Both appliances work primarily through mandibular repositioning. Despite theirwidespread use, uncertainties remain about their specific mechanisms of correction andcomparative effectiveness. Our study aimed to evaluate and compare the dentoalveolar, skeletal,and soft tissue changes between the Forsus FRD and Twin Block appliance in the treatment of ClassII malocclusions
COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF BONE THICKNESS IN INFRAZYGOMATIC CREST REGION FOR OPTIMAL INSERTION OF BONE SCREWS : A CBCT STUDY
Get PDFInfrazygomatic crest (IZC) is a palpable bony ridge running between the alveolar ridge and the zygomatic process of maxilla. IZC bone dimension is an important factor in the safety and stability of bone screws. IZC thickness depends on the site of insertion, angulation and height from the occlusal plane. This study embarks on a comprehensive Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) exploration, to assess infra zygomatic Crest bone thickness
Effectiveness of OMT on cardiovascular function: a systematic review.
Get PDFVascular disease is responsible for the top two causes of death worldwide. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is currently utilized mostly for alleviating musculoskeletal symptoms, but it has shown promise as a non-invasive approach to improve cardiovascular function. There is currently no consensus that OMT can have short-term or long-term effects on cardiovascular function. The utility of OMT in maintaining cardiovascular system health is an emerging area of practice. The purpose of this systematic review project is to investigate the short-term and long-term effects of OMT on cardiovascular function and its regulators in the nervous and endocrine systems
Substance Use Disorder –The Role of the Pharmacist
Get PDFThe study illuminates the pivotal role of community pharmacists as accessible healthcare providers, offering medication management, patient education, and preventive care services. Simultaneously, it explores the intricate responsibilities of inpatient pharmacists, emphasizing their involvement in therapeutic monitoring and collaboration with healthcare teams
Parental awareness, Knowledge, and Attitude towards Nitrous oxide sedation and Protective stabilization in children of North Kerala: A questionnaire based study
Get PDFTo assess the Parental awareness, knowledge and attitude in North Kerala population about Conscious sedation and protective stabilization as behaviour management techniques during dental treatment
Relationship between periodontal disease and coronary heart disease: A bibliometric analysis
Get PDFPeriodontal disease (PD) and coronary heart disease (CHD) are both prevalent diseases worldwide and cause patients physical and mental suffering and a global burden. Recent studies have suggested a link between PD and CHD, but there is less research in this field from the perspective of bibliometrics. This study aimed to quantitatively analyze the literature on PD and CHD to summarize intellectual bases, research hotspots, and emerging trends and pave the way for future research
The Impact of Palatal Expansion on Airway and Breathing
Get PDFMini-implant assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) is used to correct transverse maxillary deficiencies in orthodontics. While MARPE\u27s influence on occlusal stability and maxillary expansion is recognized, its impact on facial aesthetics, soft tissue morphology, and nasal airway function requires further examination. Our study analyzed the changes in facial soft tissue and airway dimensions in patients undergoing MARPE treatment
THE TRANSFORMATIVE POTENTIAL OF LIGAPLANTS IN REPLICATING NATURAL TOOTH CONNECTIONS
Get PDFOver the past decade, dental implants have become the gold standard in tooth replacement, with osseointegrated implants reigning supreme. However, these implants present certain limitations, notably the absence of the periodontal ligament (PDL). In response to this challenge, innovative periodontal ligament implants, known as ligaplants, have emerged. By combining tissue engineering principles with cutting-edge implant materials, ligaplants offer a promising alternative to traditional implants, showcasing superior biological performance and potentially extending prosthetic life.Dental implantology has witnessed a transformative shift over the last ten years, with osseointegrated implants dominating the landscape of tooth replacement. Despite their widespread adoption, these implants face inherent drawbacks, chief among them being the lack of a periodontal ligament (PDL).The development of ligaplants, characterized by a meticulously designed periodontal ligament, represents a groundbreaking solution to address this limitation
