RESUMO
The present study evaluated the literature regarding the clinical outcomes after discopexy using suture bone anchors for repositioning disc displacement. A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA statement and applied for the PROSPERO platform. The database searches were performed in the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, The Cochrane Library, and LILACS for full articles published from no restrictions of the initial period time to April 2022. Selection criteria included clinical studies in humans comparing maximal inter-incisal opening (MIO), pain by visual analogue scale (VAS), and protrusive and lateral excursions before and after discopexy. The screening process was performed by two independent reviewers, and if they did not agree with each other, a third reviewer was consulted before proceeding. The meta-analysis was carried out by Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software. Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria. A total of 327 patients were diagnosed with disc displacement, and 142 patients were refractory to conservative and minimally surgical therapies. Preauricular and endaural approaches were performed to place suture bone anchors on the posterior area of the condyle. A significant difference was found in MIO, which ranged from 15.5 mm pre-opeatively to 41.6 mm post-operatively (p = 0.001). Pain scores using the VAS ranged from 7.42 to 0.28 indicating improvement post-operatively (p = 0.001). Mandibular excursions were underestimated. The available results have shown that discopexy using suture anchors seemed to decrease pain and improve mouth opening. Clinical studies are required in a larger sample and lower variability of follow-up time to predict actual benefits.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the agreement between oral and maxillofacial radiologists (OMFR) and oral and maxillofacial surgeons (OMFS) for the detection of bifid mandibular canal (BMC) and accessory mental foramen (AMF) using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Material and Methods: This retrospective study involved 22 examiners (11 OMFR and 11 OMFS) who independently assessed 30 CBCT volumes from patients (n = 60 hemi-mandibles) under preoperative radiographic evaluation for implant placement. The examiners scored the presence of BMC and AMF in each hemimandible. The interexaminer agreements were assessed using Fleiss' kappa statistics. Results: For intra-examiner agreement, 40% of the sample was reevaluated. The interexaminer agreement between OMFR and OMFS was slight (0.12) for the detection of BMC and fair (0.24) for AMF. The agreement among OMFR for detection of BMC was fair (0.22), and it was slight among OMFS (0.15). The agreement among OMFR for detection of AMF was substantial (0.61), and among OMFS it was fair (0.22). Agreements between OMFR and OMFS were slight for BMC and fair for AMF, independently of the years of experience. Intraexaminer agreement ranged from 60% to 90% among OMFR and from 55% to 90% among OMFS. Conclusion: A slight and a fair agreement between OMFR and OMFS was found for the detection of BMC and AMF, respectively. In general, OMFR obtained higher agreement among themselves, mainly for detection of AMF.

Facial harmony is the consequence of a proper balance between all facial structures. The identification and classification of morphologic characteristics that detract from facial harmony is most effectively accomplished by clinical examination. The maintenance of the ratios between the facial thirds, correct spatial bone position and soft tissues accommodation are all factors that directly contribute in a balanced facial profile. The chin, likewise, contributes significantly in facial balance, mainly in the profile view. Expressive changes on chin position are associated with the perception of strong or delicate characters. Thus, over the years, a series of studies has been constructed focusing on mandibular osteotomies techniques that enable changes in chin position: advances, setback, extrusion, intrusion, widening, narrowing and asymmetry. This study aims to address historical and technical aspects of genioplasty; associating patient's condition with the surgical techniques that can be applied for correction of chin deformities.
La armonía facial es la consecuencia del balance entre las estructuras facial. La identificación y clasificación de las características morfológicas que están acompañando la armonía facial son mas efectivas al realizar un estudio de análisis facial. La obtención de promedios entre los tercios, corrección especial de la posición del hueso y la acomodación de los tejidos blandos son factores directamente involucrados en el balance del perfil. El mentón, contribuye significativamente en este balance. Cambios expresivos en la posición del mentón son asociados con la percepción de características fuertes o delicadas. Durante los años, una serie de estudios han sido desarrollados enfocándose en las osteotomías mandibulares y técnicas capaces de alcanzar los cambios en la posición del mentón: avances, retrocesos, extrusiones, ensanchamientos, estrechamientos y asimetrías. Este estudio pretende orientar las condiciones históricas y técnicas respecto de la genioplastia; la asociación de las características del paciente con la técnica quirúrgica pueden ser aplicadas para la corrección de las deformidades.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV) for the detection of the presence and continuity of peripheral cortication (PC) around benign intraosseous lesions on panoramic radiography (PR), with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) as the reference standard. STUDY DESIGN: The sample consisted of the mesial, distal, superior, and inferior borders of 40 bony lesions (n = 160) depicted on both PR and CBCT. Ten observers assessed the PRs. CBCT images were assessed by 2 radiologists. For each lesion, observers classified the 4 borders with regard to the presence of PC, and if present, its continuity. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were calculated for the presence and continuity of PC. Intra- and interobserver agreements were calculated. RESULTS: PR had sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV for PC detection of 0.844, 0.435, 0.435, and 0.844, respectively. With regard to PC continuity, those values were 0.750, 0.810, 0.577, and 0.904. Observer agreement was slight to fair. CONCLUSIONS: The high sensitivity and low specificity for the presence of PC indicate a large false-positive rate. The high NPVs suggest greater validity for negative decisions. The findings corroborate the influence of the eggshell effect. Observer agreement rates indicate that interpretation of PC is substantially subjective.

Stability is necessary to ensuring proper bone repair after osteotomies and fractures. The aim of this research was to analyze how the repair of pseudoarthrosis sites was affected by different conditions in related to soft tissue. An experimental study was designed with 18 New Zealand rabbits. Six study groups were formed. An osteotomy was performed on the mandibular body of each animal and muscle was installed at the osteotomy site to model pseudoarthrosis. Fixation by surgery was then carried out, using plates and screws. The animals were submitted to euthanasia after 21, 42 and 63 days to make a descriptive comparison of the histological results. No animal was lost during the experiment. In all the samples, bone formation was observed with different degrees of progress. Defects treated with or without removal of the tissue involved in pseudoarthrosis presented comparable bone repair, showing that stability of the bone segments allows the repair of adjacent tissue. In some samples cartilaginous tissue was associated with greater bone formation. Stabilization of the fracture is the key in bone repair; repair occurs whether or not the pseudoarthrosis tissue is removed.
La estabilidad de las osteotomías y de las fracturas son fundamentales para asegurar la adecuada reparación ósea; el objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar la reparación presente en sitios de pseudoartrosis realizando la limpieza de la zona previo a la fijación o manteniendo el tejido de la nounión en el mismo lugar durante la osteosíntesis. Se diseñó un estudio experimental incluyendo 18 conejos de raza Neozelandesa. Se formaron 6 grupos de estudios a quienes se relizó una osteotomía en el cuerpo mandibular y posterior instalación de músculo en el lugar de la osteotomía para fabricar un modelo de pseudoartrosis. En cirugía posterior se fijó con placa y tornillos. Se realizaron eutanasias a los 42 y 63 días para comparar los resultados de forma descriptiva mediante estudio histológico. No fue perdido ningún animal durante el experimento. En todas las muestras evaluadas se observó formación ósea en diferentes niveles de avance; defectos tratados con o sin el retiro del tejido involucrado en la pseudoartrosis presentaron una condición de reparación ósea comparables, determinando que la estabilidad de los segmentos óseos permite la reparación del tejido adyacente. El tejido cartilaginoso se presentó en algunas muestras asociadas a sectores con mayor presencia de formación ósea. La estabilización de la fractura es clave en la reparación ósea; la reparación se produce manteniendo o retirando el tejido presente en la pseudoartrosis.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the influence of subjective enhancement of brightness and contrast of digital panoramic radiographs on the detection of soft tissue calcifications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this observational study, 500 digital panoramic radiographs were evaluated by two examiners in consensus, who scored the images for the presence of calcifications for each right and left side of the image. After 30 days, all images were revaluated under subjective manipulation of digital brightness and contrast. Calcifications were classified based on the diagnostic hypothesis: sialolith, tonsillolith, calcified atheroma, phlebolith, rhinolith, maxillary sinus antrolith, synovial chondromatosis, lymph node calcification, stylohyoid ligament, triticeous cartilage, or/and upper horn of thyroid cartilage calcification. For intra-examiner agreement, 20% of the sample was reevaluated. The Kappa test and McNemar test were used (α = 0.05). RESULTS: In original images, calcifications were observed in 44.2% of the patients, and in enhanced images, this number was 70.8%. Many calcifications were detected only in enhanced images, mainly in the diagnostic hypotheses of calcified atheroma and stylohyoid ligament. Intra-examiner agreement was excellent for the detection of soft tissue calcifications (0.82) and for the classification (0.81). CONCLUSION: Subjective enhancement of brightness and contrast alters the detection of soft tissue calcifications in digital panoramic radiograph.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility of iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm for assessing the accuracy between virtual surgical planning (VSP) and outcomes in orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: VSP and results of surface mesh (SM0 and SM1) from CBCT scans of 25 patients who had been undergone bi-maxillary orthognathic surgery were converted into STL-format files and then imported to Geomagic software for semi-automatic alignment. ICP algorithm was used to calculate mean deviations (MD) and root mean square (3D error) at different calibrations of ±2 mm (T1), ±5 mm (T2) and ±10 mm (T3), with workflow being performed by two evaluators. Colour maps were generated to assess the 3D congruence qualitatively. Linear regression analysis was used to estimate whether SM0 or SM1 could condition the ICP and t-tests were used to assess whether MD and 3D error values were ≤-2 mm and ≥2 mm. Descriptive statistics was used to assess the method's feasibility by comparing T2 to T1 and T3. RESULTS: High intra- and inter-rater correlations supported the workflow reproducibility with the software. SM0 conditioned the ICP algorithm regarding both evaluators, and t-tests demonstrated that MD and 3D error were >-2 mm and <2 mm. MD and 3D error at T3 were 30% higher than those at T1. CONCLUSIONS: ICP algorithm provided a reproducible method, but its feasibility was limited due to underestimation or overestimation of the results as they affect the validity of the actual deviations.

PURPOSE: The literature does not present any consensus on a uniform treatment plan for odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) and does not provide adequate evidence for determining which modality is most effective in lowering morbidity or preventing recurrence. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of surgical treatment based on a 1- versus 2-step protocol. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors designed and implemented a retrospective cohort study and enrolled a sample of patients diagnosed with OKC from 1991 through 2018. The medical records of all cases were retrieved from files of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Division of the Piracicaba Dental School (Piracicaba, Brazil). The predictor variable was treatment group (1- vs 2-step protocol). Statistical analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier analysis, Mantel-Cox log-rank test, and proportional hazard regression analysis. RESULTS: The sample was composed of 72 patients (38 male) with a mean age of 40.72 years. Thirteen patients received 1-step treatment and 59 received 2-step treatment. The complex composed of the body, angle, and mandibular ramus was the site most frequently affected. In the individual Kaplan-Meier analysis for each presented variable only involved tooth was significant (P = .0128 by log-rank test), with the risk of relapse 4.23 times higher for the involved tooth than for the non-involved tooth. CONCLUSION: The 1- and 2-step protocols for treatment of OKCs are safe and appropriate as the first treatment option, offering a conservative and effective option with low morbidity. Treatment protocols associated with systematic monitoring promote a better quality of life for patients with low potential for complications.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate different materials as soft tissue simulators and the influence of soft tissues in cone beam computed tomography. STUDY DESIGN: Images of 5 piglet heads were acquired with intact soft tissues, with the tissues stripped, and with the use of different soft tissue simulators, following the same acquisition protocol. Four different materials were tested, individually or in combination: acrylic, water, utility wax, and expanded polystyrene (EPS). Pixel intensity values of 8 quadrangular regions, that is, upper and lower teeth and alveolar bone, were obtained. The mean values were used for comparison by analysis of variance (ANOVA; αâ¯=â¯5%). RESULTS: No differences were observed for the "No Material," "EPS," "Acrylic," and "EPS and Wax" groups for the lower anterior and posterior teeth, the upper posterior tooth, and the anterior and posterior bone, and for the "No Material," "EPS," and "EPS and Wax," groups for the lower posterior bone. All groups showed statistical differences for the lower anterior bone and the upper anterior tooth. CONCLUSIONS: Expanded 2-cm thick polystyrene, with or without 1-cm thick utility wax, was effective for most regions, followed by acrylic 0.5 cm. Soft tissues were not of great influence in most regions. Water was not an effective material for any of the regions.

IgG4-related disease is a systemic, multifocal, immune-mediated disorder that can affect multiple organs and may present as a tumor, with rare cases described in the maxillofacial region. A female patient, 53 years old, presenting tumor-like mass in the right mandibular region. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested well circumscribed nodular lesion adjacent to the branch / body of the mandible, extending posteriorly to the masseter muscle. During the surgical procedure of excision, a lesion was observed adhering to the right masseter muscle, but it was possible to remove it completely. Histopathological and immunehistochemical analysis suggested diagnosis of IgG4-related disease, furthermore, IgG4 serum count was increased. Actually, the patient continues on periodical followups in our service and by other specialties. Can be concluded that precise diagnosis of this pathology depends on many factors, being challenging and the treatment involves multidisciplinary evaluation due to the possibility of involvement of several other organs.
La enfermedad relacionada con IgG4 es una condición sistémica, multifocal, mediada por una alteración de la respuesta inmune que puede afectar diferentes órganos o puede presentarse como un tumor, raramente descrito en el área maxilofacial. Se describe el caso de una paciente de sexo femenino de 53 años de edad, presentando una masa tumoral en el ángulo mandibular derecho. La resonancia magnética sugirió un área nodular bien delimitada adyacente al cuerpo mandibular y extendida posteriormente hasta el musculo masetero. Durante la escisión quirúrgica, la lesión se presentaba adherida al musculo de forma lateral siendo posible el retiro total de la lesión. El estudio histopatológico e inmunohistoquimico determinó el diagnóstico de enfermedad relacionada con IgG4 presentando un conteo de igG4 aumentado. Actualmente, la paciente continua con seguimiento por la especialidad. Se puede concluir que el diagnóstico preciso de esta patología depende de algunos factores; el tratamiento debe ser multidsciplinario debido a la inclusión de diferentes órganos en la enfermedad.

The aim of this study was to analyze the presence of complications related to orthognathic surgery performed by surgeons in train. A retrospective study was conducted between 2005 and 2014, analyzing the clinical records of patients treated in the authors' Department. Patients who underwent orthognathic surgery were included, under a bidimensional analysis and with the conventional orthosurgical sequence; intraoperative complications were identified, such as the occurrence of a bad split, bleeding, tissue injury, among others and postoperative variables such as impaired sensation, infection, and alterations in the osteosynthesis systems. A statistical analysis was done using χ and Student t tests, considering a statistical significance when Pâ<â0.05. Two hundred fifty patients were included with an average follow-up of 13 months; 62.8% were women and 37.2% were men; 18.8% of the subjects presented some type of intraoperative or postoperative complication; excluding relapse and complications due to loss of bonding of the orthodontic device, a 12.4% complication rate was observed; intraoperative complications were 8% and postoperative complications 10.4%. Only the sensorineural alterations were associated with the mandibular surgery (Pâ<â0.05). Finally, orthognathic surgery is relatively safe and produces a low number of complications when it is performed by surgeons in train.

Introdução: a cirurgia ortognática envolve a correção de desarmonias funcionais e estéticas. A hiperplasia condilar (HC) unilateral resulta em crescimento mandibular acentuado, provocando assimetria facial. Para obter previsibilidade e sucesso nos resultados, é imprescindível planejamento preciso e adequado. Objetivo: descrever e comparar diferentes métodos de planejamento e seus resultados no pós-operatório no tratamento de pacientes com assimetria facial. Relato de caso: foram avaliados 03 casos orto-cirúrgicos (A, B e C) de pacientes adultos jovens, com média de idade de 22 anos, portadores de má oclusão esquelética de Classe III, com assimetria facial resultante de HC inativa. Foi realizada análise facial e empregou-se dois métodos de planejamento em cirurgia ortognática (convencional e virtual). O caso A foi planejado por meio de imagens bidimensionais (2D) e sequência cirúrgica iniciada pela maxila. O caso B foi planejado por imagens 2D associado ao recurso de simulação em protótipo. Por fim, o caso C foi planejado exclusivamente com imagens tridimensionais (3D) e simulação virtual, sendo que os casos B e C utilizaram sequência cirúrgica iniciada pela mandíbula. Foi utilizado o software Dolphin Imaging® em todos os planejamentos e os mesmos foram transferidos para os procedimentos cirúrgicos com auxílio dos guias em resina acrílica estereolitográfica. Conclusão: os planejamentos demonstraram eficácia em termos de previsibilidade e viabilidade para a correção das assimetrias faciais, sendo todos os resultados considerados satisfatórios por parte dos cirurgiões e dos pacientes. Houve tendência de melhores resultados quando da utilização de prototipagem, das imagens 3D e sequência operatória iniciada pela mandíbula, no planejamento.
Introduction: orthognathic surgery provides correction of functional and esthetic disharmony. Condylar hyperplasia induces in pronounced mandibular growth, resulting facial asymmetry. Planning is important to get predictable and successful on outcomes. Purpose: to describe and compare methods of planning and post-operative outcomes by reporting three cases associated with facial asymmetries. Case report: a total of 03 young adult patients (cases A, B and C), mean of age 22 years old, Class III skeletal malocclusion, and facial asymmetry after inactive condylar hyperplasia were evaluated. They were undergone facial analysis, two methods of planning in orthognathic surgery (conventional and virtual). Patient A was planned by bidimensional (2D) images and maxilla first sequence. Patient B was planned by 2D images associated with simulating on surface mesh prototyping. And, Patient C was solely planned by three-dimensional (3D) images and virtual surgical planning. Patients B and C used mandible first sequence. Dolphin Imaging software was used on each planning. Each planning was transferred to surgical procedures by assisting of the guides manufactured (acrylic resin and stereolithography). Patients were usually assessed during post-operative and were pleasured with outcomes. Conclusion: planning showed predictable and feasibility for facial asymmetries because outcomes were great. There was a propensity of better outcomes when surface mesh, 3D images and mandible first sequence were used at the treatment planning.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a sarcoma with rare occurrence in the oral and maxillofacial region; surgery is the most reliable treatment. Inadequate resection of the sarcoma on the oral and maxillofacial region is associated with a high incidence of local recurrence and a poor prognosis. Only few patients of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the malar region have been previously reported in the literature. The authors report a new patient of malignant fibrous histiocytoma on the right malar region that treated a complete tumor surgical excision without lymph node dissection. Examination of the resected specimen revealed that the tumor was completely removed.

O cisto odontogênico calcificante (COC) é considerado como condição patológica benigna de ocorrência rara em maxila e mandíbula, caracterizado por revestimento cístico de células epiteliais odontogênicas, contendo células fantasmas com propensão a regiões de calcificação. Neste artigo, descreveu-se a configuração clínica e histopatológica do COC por meio de relato de caso submetido a tratamento cirúrgico e acompanhamento pós-operatório. Paciente de 11 anos apresentou aumento de volume em região maxilar à esquerda, próxima ao sulco nasolabial e sem sintomatologia dolorosa. Os exames radiográficos indicaram lesão radiolúcida, bem circunscrita e expansiva em maxila, que foi submetida a enucleação associada a ostectomia marginal das paredes corticais ósseas. O histopatológico revelou revestimento cístico com epitélio odontogênico ameloblástico, ninhos espalhados de células fantasmas e regiões eosinofílicas de material compatível com dentinóide. Evidenciou-se, assim, perfil clínico de COC, que pode ser confundido com outras lesões císticas ou tumorais, sendo essencial o diagnóstico por meio de análise histopatológica. A abordagem cirúrgica proporcionou adequado diagnóstico e tratamento. Após acompanhamento clínico e radiográfico, não houve recorrência do COC.

The aim was to evaluate the differences of implant stability quotient (ISQ) between implants with external hexagon and Morse taper connectors. The study had a split mouth design, composed by 10 patients who received hybrid protocol prosthesis. In total, 40 implants (3.75 x 13 mm) were installed: on the right side, 20 external hexagon, and on the left, 20 Morse taper. After two years in function, the stability test was applied by using the MRI machine Osstell ISQ directly on the implants and on the abutments. Considering the measurements made on the implants, there were differences between HE and CM mesial (p= 0.011), lingual (p= 0.003) and distal (p= 0.006). Considering the measurements made on the abutments, there were differences between HE and CM on the buccal (p= 0.020) and lingual (p= 0.004). The trend and higher values are for the CM group. The values for Morse taper implants were always higher in a statistically significant manner, when compared to the external hexagon.

A retrospective study was conducted using the medical records of patients treated for facial trauma between April 1999 and March 2012 at the Maxillofacial Surgery Division of the Piracicaba Dental School. The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis, binary logistic regression, and correlational analysis using SPSS 18.0 software. The results were considered relevant at Pâ<â0.05. Medical records of 3724 patients with facial trauma were analyzed, of which 173 were illicit drug users and 19.36% reported alcohol intake. The use of illicit drugs was reported by 4.64%. The prevalent etiological factor among drug and alcohol users was interpersonal violence. The mandible was the face part most affected by fractures. Male patients exhibited increased odds of experiencing fractures (ORâ=â1.43), as did users of illicit drugs (ORâ=â1.62), when compared with nonusers. When faced with maxillofacial trauma, male drug users exhibited an increased chance of experiencing fractures. This knowledge should be used as a baseline to implement more efficient prevention strategies for this population.

Mandibular reconstruction has been used in the last 100 years as a safe, effective and stable technique. Various types of grafts have been used, including the autogenous rib graft; the normal repair of this type of graft has been defined in some studies although some observations have been made indicating low predictability of the growth of this bone. The aim of this study was to report the case of a patient with a rib graft for mandibular reconstruction where after 20 years cartilaginous tissue was observed exclusively in the absence of bone tissue. A 61-year-old female patient presented in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Service for dental implants. The patient had a history of 4 previous mandibular reconstructions; imaging showed no alterations to the normal evolution of a graft. However, the intraoral access contained softer tissue than the normal bone, and thus the implant installation was abandoned. Histopathological analysis revealed the formation of collagenous tissue and cartilage, chondrocytes island conditions characteristic of cartilaginous tissue in the absence of mineralization and cancellous bone. This led to the conclusion that repair conditions can vary based on specific and general factors as yet under discussion.
La reconstrucción mandibular ha sido utilizada en los últimos 100 años como una técnica segura, eficaz y estable. Diversos tipos de injertos se han utilizado siendo el auto trasplante de hueso costal uno de ellos; la normal reparación de este tipo de injertos ha sido definida en algunas investigaciones aunque se han realizado otras observaciones indicando baja predictibilidad del crecimiento de este hueso; el objetivo de esta investigación es reportar un caso de una paciente portadora de injerto costal para reconstrucción de mandíbula donde después de 20 años se observó exclusivamente tejido cartilaginoso en ausencia de tejido óseo. Una paciente del sexo femenino, 61 años se presentó al Servicio de Cirugía Oral y Maxilofacial para ser tratada con implantes dentales; la paciente presentaba historia de 4 reconstrucciones mandibulares previas; los estudios de imagen se presentaban sin alteraciones a la condición normal de la evolución. Sin embargo, al acceso intraoral se observó un tejido más blando que el hueso normal, abortándose la instalación del implante. El análisis histopatológico reveló la formación de tejido colágeno y cartílago, condrocitos en lagunas y condiciones características de tejido cartilaginoso en ausencia de mineralización y trabeculado óseo.Se concluye que las condiciones de reparación pueden variar en base a factores específicos y generales aun en discusión.

The piezosurgery has been used with increasing frequency and applicability by health professionals, especially those who deal with dental implants. The concept of piezoelectricity has emerged in the nineteenth century, but it was applied in oral surgery from 1988 by Tomaso Vercellotti. It consists of an ultrasonic device able to cut mineralized bone tissue, without injuring the adjacent soft tissue. It also has several advantages when compared to conventional techniques with drills and saws, such as the production of a precise, clean and low bleed bone cut that shows positive biological results. In dental implants surgery, it has been used for maxillary sinus lifting, removal of bone blocks, distraction osteogenesis, lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve, split crest of alveolar ridge and even for dental implants placement. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the use of piezosurgery in bone augmentation procedures used previously to dental implants placement.
