RESUMO
Objectives: This research was done to assess the efficacy of I-PRF and bone graft in immediate dental implant placement. Materials and Method: Twenty patients were selected randomly into 2 groups with 10 samples in each as Group I- using I-PRF and Group II with synthetic bone replacement alloplast (biograft-HT) after immediate implant placement. Postoperative clinical assessment after graft placement was done based on visual analog scale for pain, modified gingival index and modified plaque index at 2nd, 4th, and 6th months. A radiographic assessment of bone density was performed two and six months after the placement of the implant. Result: There was a statistically considerable variation between the change in modified plaque index and modified gingival index. There was a statistically insignificant divergence in the mean visual analog scale between the two groups at 1, 3, and 6 days. Group I demonstrated a higher change in bone density than group II, with a statistically significant difference (P = .002). Conclusion: An innovative, safe, and efficient method for controlling the healing process around immediate dental implants is provided by the use of I-PRF in conjunction with immediate dental implant placement.
RESUMO
The present study was conducted to assess stress distribution around dental implants based on the all-on-four treatment concept. The finite element analysis (FEA) models comprised cancellous bone covered with cortical bone. Four dental implants were placed in two different designs. In model 1, the four implants were placed parallel to each other, whereas, in model 2, the all-on-four concept was followed. The vertical and lateral loads of various values were applied, and stress was evaluated. In model 2, the least stress was observed in both lateral and vertical loading in the peri-implant region. The all-on-four concept proved to be beneficial in reducing the stress around dental implants, thereby reducing the treatment cost.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Deha-Prakriti (DP) is a unique contribution of Ayurveda, which distinguishes the population into three main groups viz., Vata, Pitta, and Kapha predominant individuals. Its assessment helps physicians to prescribe a suitable diet, daily regimen, and lifestyle that prevents non-communicable diseases. Amavata (Rheumatoid Arthritis) is a disease that needs personalized management approach. AIM: To evaluate the association of DP with Amavata (â¼Rheumatoid Arthritis). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate DP-based susceptibility in the manifestation of Amavata vis-à-vis Rheumatoid Arthritis. METHODOLOGY: A case-control study was conducted from 18.04.2018 to 09.01.2020, involving 150 cases (patients of Amavata), and 150 controls (healthy volunteers), matching in age (between 18 to 50 years), and sex, selected from Jamnagar. CCRAS-PAS for both the groups, Health Assessment proforma of TRISUTRA project CSIR-AYURGENOMICS, were used. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the relationship between DP and Amavata. RESULTS: The proportion of people with Vata dosha in the case group (53.79%) was substantially higher (P < 0.0001) than in the control group (24.91%). Pitta (39.35%) and Kapha (36.27%) doshas were found to be more prevalent in the control group (P < 0.0001). There was a six-percent rise in the likelihood of developing Amavata with every unit increase in Vata percentage, according to logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSION: Vata predominant DP has a significant association with Amavata. Vata predominant DP individuals are more susceptible to Amavata than Pitta and Kapha predominant DP individuals.
