RESUMEN
There has been an explosion in scientific interest in using human-platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a substitute of xenogeneic sera in cell-based therapies. However, there is a need to create standardization in this field. This systematic review is based on literature searches in PubMed and Web of Science databases until June 2021. Forty-one studies completed the selection criteria. The composition of PRP was completely reported in less than 30% of the studies. PRP has been used as PRP-derived supernatant or non-activated PRP. Two ranges could be identified for platelet concentration, the first between 0.14 × 106 and 0.80 × 106 platelets/µL and the second between 1.086 × 106 and 10 × 106 platelets/µL. Several studies have pooled PRP with a pool size varying from four to nine donors. The optimal dose for the PRP or PRP supernatant is 10%. PRP or PRP-derived supernatants a have positive effect on MSC colony number and size, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and genetic stability. The use of leukocyte-depleted PRP has been demonstrated to be a feasible alternative to xenogeneic sera. However, there is a need to improve the description of the PRP preparation methodology as well as its composition. Several items are identified and reported to create guidelines for future research.

Background and Objectives: Currently, one of the most discouraging aspects for many patients undergoing dental procedures is the administration of anaesthesia. Consequently, there is a constant search for new techniques to avoid the invasive and painful nature of the injection. A new motorised syringe system (Dentapen®) has recently been developed, standing out for its convenience and ease of use. Material and Methods: Randomised, controlled, single-blind, and single-centre study including 178 voluntary adult participants aged between 18 and 90 years. Individuals were randomly assigned using a randomised table. Patients were asked to rate the level of pain experienced during the injections, using a 10-point visual analogue scale (VAS). The following data were recorded: pain index, heart rate, blood pressure, and saturation, both before and after anaesthesia. Results: Of the total 178 participants, 87 participants (48.9%) were men and 91 (51.1%) were women. The first variable to be assessed was the pain experienced by patients when anaesthetised with a syringe, obtaining a mean value of 2.63 ± 1.86 on the VAS with the conventional syringe and 1.06 ± 1.28 with the Dentapen® syringe, showing statistically significant differences (p-value < 0.01). When stratifying, based on the procedure that was undertaken, differences were also significant for all treatments (p-value < 0.01) except for endodontics, where differences were likely to be significant (p-value = 0.02). Conclusions: In conclusion, from a clinical standpoint, the Dentapen® syringe is a valid alternative to traditional infiltration syringes, causing minimum pain with the injection.

Background and Objectives: Maxillary bone defects related to post-extraction alveolar ridge resorption are usual. These defects may lead to failure in further surgical implant phases given the lack of bone volume to perform the dental implant. The objective of this clinical assay was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an experimental synthetic bone substitute in the preservation of post-extraction maxillary alveoli. Materials and Methods: 33 voluntary patients who had at least one maxillary premolar tooth that was a candidate for exodontia (n = 39) and subsequent implant rehabilitation participated. The regenerated alveoli were monitored by means of periodic clinical examinations (days 9 ± 1, 21 ± 4, 42 ± 6, and 84 ± 6), measuring the height and width of the alveolar crest (days 0 and 180 ± 5), measurement of radiodensity using tomographic techniques (days 0-5 and 175 ± 5), and histological examination of biopsies collected at 180 ± 5 days. Results: No significant differences were observed during the entire follow-up period between the two groups with respect to the safety variables studied. A variation in width of -0.9 ± 1.3 mm and -0.6 ± 1.5 mm, and a variation in height of -0.1 ± 0.9 mm and -0.3 ± 0.7 mm was observed for experimental material Sil-Oss® and Bio-Oss®, respectively. The radiodensity of the alveoli regenerated with the experimental material was significantly lower than that corresponding to Bio-Oss®. However, the histological study showed greater osteoid matrix and replacement of the material with newformed bone in the implanted beds with the experimental material. Conclusions: Both materials can be used safely and proved equally effective in maintaining alveolar flange dimensions, they are also histologically biocompatible, bioactive and osteoconductive. The experimental material showed the advantage of being resorbable and replaced with newformed bone, in addition to promoting bone regeneration.

(1) Background: Dental treatments often cause pain and anxiety in patients. Virtual reality (VR) is a novel procedure that can provide distraction during dental procedures or prepare patients to receive such type of treatments. This meta-analysis is the first to gather evidence on the effectiveness of VR on the reduction of pain (P) and dental anxiety (DA) in patients undergoing dental treatment, regardless of age. (2) Methods: MEDLINE, CENTRAL, PubMed, EMBASE, Wiley Library and Web of Science were searched for scientific articles in November 2019. The keywords used were: "virtual reality", "distraction systems", "dental anxiety" and "pain". Studies where VR was used for children and adults as a measure against anxiety and pain during dental treatments were included. VR was defined as a three-dimensional environment that provides patients with a sense of immersion, transporting them to appealing and interactive settings. Anxiety and pain results were assessed during dental treatments where VR was used and in standard care situations. (3) Results: 32 studies were identified, of which 8 met the inclusion criteria. The effect of VR in children was significant, both for anxiety (standardized mean difference (SMD) = -1.75) and pain (SMD = -1.46). (4) Conclusions: The findings of the meta-analysis show that VR is an effective distraction method to reduce pain and anxiety in patients undergoing a variety of dental treatments; however, further research on VR as a tool to prepare patients for dental treatment is required because of the scarcity of studies in this area.
RESUMEN
Introducción: la pérdida ósea tras las extracciones puede requerir en el maxilar posterior la realización de una elevación de seno para la correcta colocación de implantes. El hueso autólogo se considera el gold estándar, pero tiene una alta tasa de reabsorción y morbilidad, haciendo que haya otras alternativas como el diente autólogo, con buenos resultados en procedimientos regenerativos. Este caso clínico evalúa a nivel clínico, radiográfico e histomorfométrico el empleo del diente autólogo en elevación de seno maxilar y el comportamiento de dos implantes colocados de manera diferida. Caso clínico: se presenta el caso de una mujer de 48 años, que acudió a consulta para reponer el sector posterior derecho. Se realizó la exodoncia del 4.8 como diente donante para utilizarlo como biomaterial en una elevación de seno de acceso lateral, colocando dos implantes seis meses tras la intervención, y evaluándolos seis meses tras su carga protésica. Discusión: el diente autólogo en el presente caso clínico presentó un 30,56% de hueso neoformado tras seis meses de espera, con mejores resultados que al emplear aloinjertos y xenoinjertos. Además, diferentes aspectos culturales y étnicos respaldan la aceptación del diente autólogo por parte de los pacientes, aunque se necesitan más estudios a largo plazo para evaluar la estabilidad de este tipo de injerto en elevación de seno maxilar. Conclusiones: el diente autólogo en la elevación de seno ofrece biocompatibilidad, baja incidencia de complicaciones y buena aceptación por parte del paciente, con un buen comportamiento clínico y radiográfico de los implantes, a pesar del poco tiempo transcurrido en este caso tras la carga.

Introduction: Bone loss after extractions may require a sinus elevation to be performed in the posterior maxilla for the correct placement of implants. Autologous bone is considered the gold standard, but has a high rate of resorption and morbidity, leading to other alternatives such as autologous tooth, with good results in regenerative procedures. This case report evaluates at the clinical, radiographic and histomorphometric level the use of the autologous tooth in maxillary sinus elevation and the behaviour of two implants placed in a delayed manner. Case report: The case is presented of a 48-year-old woman who came for consultation to replace the right posterior sector. The extraction of 4.8 as a donor tooth was performed to use it as a biomaterial in a lateral access sinus elevation, placing two implants six months after the intervention, and evaluating them six months after their prosthetic loading. Discussion: The autologous tooth in this case report showed 30.56% of newly formed bone following a six-month wait, with better results than when allografts and xenografts were used. In addition, different cultural and ethnic aspects support the acceptance of the autologous tooth by patients. However, more longterm studies are needed to evaluate the stability of this type of graft in maxillary sinus elevation. Conclusions: The autologous tooth in the sinus elevation offers biocompatibility, low incidence of complications and good patient acceptance, with good clinical and radiographic behaviour of the implants, despite the short time elapsed in this case after loading.(AU)

Introducción: tras las extracciones, se producen una serie de cambios dimensio nales en sentido horizontal y vertical de la cresta alveolar, los cuales pueden ser minimizados mediante algunas técnicas quirúrgicas, como la preservación alveo lar, que utiliza diferentes sustitutos óseos, entre los que se encuentra actualmente el injerto autólogo de diente. Caso clínico: se presenta el caso clínico de una mujer de 61 años, que acudió a consulta presentando dolor intenso en la zona del segundo premolar superior de recho (1.5). Se realizó la exodoncia del 1.5, usándose como diente donante para realizar una preservación del alveolo tras la extracción. Cuatro meses tras el proce dimiento, se colocó un implante y se tomó una biopsia para realizar un análisis histo morfométrico. Un año tras la carga del im plante se observaron buenos resultados clínicos y radiográficos. Discusión: el diente y el tejido óseo tie nen similitudes en su composición quími ca, tanto en sus componentes inorgáni cos y orgánicos como en la cantidad de agua. En cuanto al contenido orgánico destacan los factores de crecimiento, la proteína morfogenética ósea 2 (BMP-2) y el colágeno tipo 1, dotando al diente como biomaterial de la propiedad de os teoinducción. El empleo del diente como sustituto en preservación alveolar consi gue porcentajes altos de hueso neofor mado, variando entre 37,55% cuando se usa el diente completo, al 48,40% usando dentina desmineralizada. Además de los buenos resultados histomorfométricos, goza de una buena aceptación por parte de los pacientes, fundamentalmente en determinadas ra zas o culturas, y consigue una reducción de las dimensio nes óseas evaluadas mediante escáner de haz cónico. Sin embargo, requiere un tiempo de preparación, que aumenta si el diente tiene restauraciones o tratamientos de conduc tos asociados (AU)
Introduction: following tooth extraction, horizontal and vertical resorption of bone volume occurs, but they can be reduced by many surgical procedures, such as alveolar ridge preservation, which uses different bone substitutes, being one of them autogenous tooth-graft. Clinical case: a 61-year-old woman is presented, who came to private dental clinic presenting intense pain in the area of an upper bicuspid of the first quadrant (1.5). Exodontia of the 1.5 was performed, using it as a donor tooth to obtain the biomaterial to preserve its alveolus. After 4 months re-entry was performed and an implant was placed, harvesting a bone biopsy for histomorphometric analysis. One year post-loading, good clinical and radiographic results were shown. Discussion: human bone and tooth have similarities in their chemical composition, both in their inorganic and organic components and in the amount of water. The organic content, growth factors, bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and type 1 collagen stand out, give the tooth the property of osteoinduction. The use of the tooth as a substitute in alveolar preservation achieves high percentages of neoformed bone, varying between 37.55% when the whole tooth is used, to 48.40% using demineralized dentin. In addition, it is well accepted by patients, especially in certain races or cultures, and achieves a reduction in bone dimensions evaluated by cone beam computed tomography. However, it has a drawback, requiring a long preparation time, which increases if the tooth has associated restorations or root canals. Conclusions: Autologous tooth-graft has a high biocompatibility, a low rate of intraoperative complications and good patient acceptance. It requires 25 minutes for preparation, which increases if there are restorations, root canals and caries. The percentage of vital bone obtained in the present clinical case shows new bone formation of 20% 4 months after alveolar ridge preservation (AU)
