Alveolar Ridge Preservation Using Resorbable Bioactive Ceramic Composite: A Histological Study

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to histologically evaluate newly generated vital bone using porous granules of bioactive and resorbable silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (SCPC) in extraction sockets. Material and methods: Six patients with a non-restorable maxillary central incisor requiring extraction followed by implant placement participated in the study. Extraction sockets were grafted with granules of SCPC. After 6 months, a bone core sample was retrieved from the center of the healed socket for histologic analysis, and dental implants were placed. Alveolar bone width was...

Neutrophil Function and Periodontitis in Alcohol-dependent Males without Medical Disorders

Background: Periodontitis and immune dysfunction are often reported in alcohol-dependent patients. Our objectives were to investigate the effects of alcohol exposure on neutrophil function and the associated consequential effects on the periodontium in a group of African American (AA) males with documented history of alcohol use without medical complications. Methods: Thirty-three AA males with documented history of alcohol use were included in this analysis. All subjects were free from...

Is the Schneiderian Membrane Thickness Affected by Periodontal Disease? A Cone Beam Computed Tomographybased Extended Case Series
Is the Schneiderian Membrane Thickness Affected by Periodontal Disease? A Cone Beam Computed Tomographybased Extended Case Series

Objective: The aim was to assess the thickness of Schneiderian membranes (SM) in patients with advanced periodontal disease. Methods: 17 dentate patients (DG) scheduled for periodontal surgery on maxillary molars were consecutively recruited and cone beam computed tomographies performed for preoperative diagnosis. Twenty-one patients (EG) requiring cone beam computed tomography-based planning of implant placement in the edentulous posterior maxilla served as controls. Results: Schneiderian...

One Stage, Full-mouth, Ultrasonic Debridement in the Treatment of Severe Chronic Periodontitis in Smokers: A Preliminary, Blind and Randomized Clinical Trial
One Stage, Full-mouth, Ultrasonic Debridement in the Treatment of Severe Chronic Periodontitis in Smokers: A Preliminary, Blind and Randomized Clinical Trial

Objective: The aim of this clinical trial was to assess the performance of a full-mouth ultrasonic debridement protocol in the treatment of severe chronic periodontitis in comparison with scaling and root planing in a quadrant-wise procedure in smokers. Materials and Methods: The trial consisted of 30 participants presenting with periodontitis divided into 3 groups: Group FMUD - full-mouth ultrasonic debridement, i.e., one session of 45 minutes of ultrasonic instrumentation for smokers (n =...
