RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: The objective was to assess the one year implant treatment outcome and patient-related outcome measures (PROMs) following maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA) with autogenous bone graft (ABG) from the zygomatic buttress (control) compared with 1:1 mixture of ABG and anorganic porcine bone mineral (APBM) (Test I) or biphasic bone graft material (BBGM) (Test II). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty healthy patients (34 females, 26 males) were randomly allocated to either control or test groups. Outcome measures included survival of suprastructures and implants, implant stability quotient, health status of peri-implant tissue, peri-implant marginal bone loss, frequency of complications, and PROMs using Oral Health Impact Profile-14 combined with questionnaire assessing patient perception of peri-implant soft tissue, prosthetic solution, implant function, and implant treatment outcome using visual analogue scale. Mean differences were expressed with standard deviation and 95% confidence interval. Level of significance was .05. RESULTS: All suprastructures and implants were well-functioning after one year of functional implant loading. There was no significant difference between control and test groups in any of the applied outcome measures. The implant stability significantly increased from implant placement to abutment connection within all groups (p < .001). High patient satisfaction and significant improvement in oral health-related quality of life was also reported within all groups. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that MSFA with composite grafts containing minimal amounts of ABG reveals comparable implant treatment outcomes as compared with ABG alone, after one year of functional implant loading. Extensive ABG harvesting in conjunction with MSFA therefore seems not to be needed.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether salivary contamination during placement of implants with different surface characteristics affects osseointegration in native and in augmented bone areas. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty eight implants with machined surface (MS) and 48 implants with moderately rough surface (RS) were tested in the calvaria of 12 sheep. At the first surgery, 64 bony critical defects were randomly created and were subsequently augmented with two materials (autogenous or bovine bone). After 5 weeks of graft healing, 8 implants were placed per sheep, in native bone and in the centre of the augmented defects. Forty eight implants were soaked with saliva before placement (contaminated group [CG]), while 48 implants were not (non-contaminated group [NCG]). Five weeks after implant placement, bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone material area fraction occupancy (BMAFO) were calculated histomorphometrically. RESULTS: Saliva contamination showed a significant negative effect (p = .000) on BIC, especially in augmented areas. RS showed significant positive effect on BIC, compared to MS (p = .000), while there were no significant differences for different bone conditions (p = .103). For BMAFO, the contamination showed a significantly negative affect (p = .000), while there were no significant differences for surface characteristics (p = .322) and for bone condition (p = .538). CONCLUSION: Saliva contamination during dental implant placement has a negative effect on osseointegration in augmented areas. Moderately rough surface has a possible advantage in the aspect of initial bone to implant contact. However, it seems to be advisable to avoid saliva contamination especially for implants placed in augmented bone areas.

In order to determine a suitable thickness of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) for manufacturing of surgical membranes, the purpose was to evaluate how different thicknesses of PEEK influence the mechanical properties under flexure and tension. In total 20 specimens in PEEK with two different thicknesses, 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm were fabricated and tested in a three-point flexural strength test and tensile strength test (n = 5 specimens). Statistical analysis was done with non-parametric Mann-Whitney test with level of significance α = 0.05, for both material tests, respectively. The 1.0 mm-thick samples resulted in higher values in elastic limit and conventional deflection (Sc-value) in the flexural strength test compared to 0.5 mm-thick samples. In the tensile strength test, the results did not show any significant difference in elastic limit depending on the thickness evaluated. However, PEEK with thickness of 1.0 mm received significantly higher maximum value at fracture. Within the limitations of this study, PEEK with a thickness of 0.5 mm-1.0 mm shows mechanical properties that are appropriate thickness and can meet the complex demands for dimensioning of surgical membranes.

BACKGROUND: Autogenous bone graft is considered as the preferred grafting material for maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA). However, harvesting of extraoral or intraoral autogenous bone graft is associated with risk of donor site morbidity and supplementary surgery. From a clinical and patient perspective, it would therefore be an advantage, if postoperative discomfort could be minimized by diminishing the need for autogenous bone graft harvesting. The objective of the present study was to test the hypothesis of no difference in patient's perception of recovery after MSFA with autogenous bone graft from the zygomatic buttress (control) compared with 1:1 mixture of autogenous bone graft and deproteinized porcine bone mineral (DPBM) (Test I) or biphasic bone graft material (BBGM) (Test II). Sixty healthy patients were randomly allocated to either control or test groups. Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) was evaluated by Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) at enrollment. Recovery was estimated by self-administrated questionnaires and visual analog scale assessing pain, social and working isolation, physical appearance, eating and speaking ability, diet variations, sleep impairment and discomfort after 1 week and 1 month. Descriptive statistics was expressed as mean with standard deviation (SD). Correlation between OHRQoL at enrollment and recovery were assessed by linear regression. p-value below 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: Treatment satisfaction and willingness to undergo similar surgery were high in all groups. Average numbers of days with pain and sick leave were 3.5 (SD 3.9) and 0.5 (SD 1.2), respectively, with no significant difference between groups. Moreover, no significant difference in eating and speaking ability, physical appearance, work performance and sleep impairment were seen between groups. Mean OHIP-14 score at enrollment was 9.30 (SD 9.25) (control), 9.95 (SD 7.96) (Test I) and 8.15 (SD 9.37) (Test II), with no significant differences between groups. Impaired OHRQoL, gender or age seems not to predispose for delayed recovery or increased postoperative discomfort. CONCLUSIONS: MSFA with diminutive autogenous bone graft harvesting is associated with high patient satisfaction, limited postoperative discomfort and willingness to undergo similar surgery. Presurgical OHRQoL, gender or age seems not to be associated with impaired patient's perception of recovery.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of the present systematic review was to test the hypothesis of no difference in implant treatment outcome after maxillary alveolar ridge expansion with split-crest technique compared with lateral ridge augmentation with autogenous bone block graft. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase and Cochrane Library search in combination with a hand-search of relevant journals was conducted. Human studies published in English until 8th of February, 2018 were included. RESULTS: One comparative and four noncomparative studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Both treatment modalities disclosed high survival rate of implants with few complications. High survival rate of prosthesis, implant stability values, limited peri-implant marginal bone loss and gain in maxillary alveolar ridge width were reported with the split-crest technique. Patient-reported outcome measure and length of patient treatment time was not assessed in any of the included studies. CONCLUSIONS: The split-crest technique seems to be useful for horizontal augmentation of maxillary alveolar deficiencies with high survival rate of prosthesis and implants. However, further long-term randomized controlled trials with larger patient sample as well as assessment of patient-reported outcome measures and patient treatment time are needed before well-defined conclusions can be provided about the two treatment modalities.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypotheses of no differences in implant treatment outcome after maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA) with synthetic bone substitutes (SBS) compared with other grafting materials applying the lateral window technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library search in combination with hand-search of selected journals was conducted. RESULTS: Five randomized controlled trials with low risk of bias fulfilled the inclusion criteria. SBS disclosed high survival rate of suprastructures and implants with no significant differences compared to autogenous bone graft or xenograft. Meta-analysis revealed a patient-based implant survival rate of 0.98 (confidence interval: 0.89-1.08), indicating no differences between SBS and xenograft. SBS demonstrated significant less newly formed bone compared with autogenous bone graft, whereas no significant difference was revealed as compared to xenograft. High implant stability values, limited periimplant marginal bone loss, and few complications were reported with SBS. CONCLUSIONS: There seem to be no differences in implant treatment outcome after MSFA with SBS compared to other grafting materials.

The aim of the present study was to describe the localization and extension of epithelial rests of Malassez (ERM) in the periodontal membrane (PDM) in normal human third molars. The material consisted of 24 normally developed human third molars surgically removed from patients with an age range from 15 to 27 years (six females and six males). The root lengths were developed from close to half-length to complete apex closure. The extracted teeth were fixed in 10 per cent neutral-buffered formalin, decalcified in ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid EDTA, paraffin embedded and cut sagittaly in 5 microm serial sections. Immunohistochemistry was performed using polyclonal rabbit anti-bovine cytokeratin (wide-spectrum screening, WSS) and the EnVision+ dual link system. The results were based on the visual comparison of WSS in the tissue sections using a light microscope. It was demonstrated that the ERM cells were distributed in the PDM in a network-shaped manner along the root surface and in the furcation region. The distribution of ERM was more prominent in teeth with incomplete root formation. The ectodermal tissue layer might influence not only the morphology of the tooth but also tooth eruption. The reaction of this epithelial layer in connection with ankylosis and orthodontic tooth movement may be of future interest.
