Rehabilitación implanto protésica en paciente con injerto mandibular de larga data / Implant-prosthetic rehabilitation in a patient with a longstanding mandibular graft / Reabilitação protética com implantes em pacientes com enxerto mandibular de longa data

En la actualidad es cada vez más frecuente la consulta de pacientes que siendo sometidos en edades tempranas a cirugías de extirpación tumoral y posterior reconstrucción con injertos presentan problemas tanto funcionales como estéticos, el uso de prótesis implantosoportadas mejora la calidad de vida, pero al mismo tiempo representan un desafío por la baja disponibilidad ósea. Se presenta un caso clínico de rehabilitación protésica implantosoportada en una paciente con gran déficit óseo mandibular como consecuencia de le extirpación de una neoplasia y posterior injerto de costilla. Se colocaron 2 implantes osteointegrados en hueso remanente y rehabilitación con prótesis removible sostenida a una barra colada. Por ser un tratamiento poco invasivo y conservador fue aceptado fácilmente por la paciente y la mejora tanto en la estética como en la función fue notoria.

Nowadays, it is becoming more and more frequent to see patients who underwent surgery for tumor removal and subsequent reconstruction with grafts at an early age, presenting both functional and esthetic problems. The use of implant-supported prostheses improves the quality of life, but at the same time represents a challenge due to the low availability of bone. A clinical case of implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation is presented in a patient with a great mandibular bone deficit as a consequence of the removal of a neoplasm and subsequent rib graft. Two osseointegrated implants were placed in the remaining bone and rehabilitation with a removable prosthesis supported by a cast bar. Being a minimally invasive and conservative treatment, it was easily accepted by the patient and the improvement in both esthetics and function was notorious.

Atualmente, são cada vez mais frequentes os pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de remoção de tumores e posterior reconstrução com enxertos em idade precoce que apresentam problemas funcionais e estéticos. O uso de próteses implanto-suportadas melhora a qualidade de vida, mas, ao mesmo tempo, representa um desafio devido à baixa disponibilidade de osso. Apresentamos um caso clínico de reabilitação protética implanto-suportada em um paciente com grande déficit ósseo mandibular em consequência da remoção de uma neoplasia e posterior enxerto de costela. Dois implantes osseointegrados foram colocados no osso remanescente e a reabilitação foi feita com uma prótese removível suportada por uma barra de gesso. Por se tratar de um tratamento minimamente invasivo e conservador, foi facilmente aceito pelo paciente e a melhora na estética e na função foi perceptível.

Split crest con colocación simultánea de implantes en sector anterior: reporte de un caso / Split crest with simultaneous placement of implants in the anterior sector: a case report

La pérdida ósea en el sector anterior, ya sea por un defecto horizontal, vertical o combinado, actualmente es un desafío, no sólo por la integración del implante, sino por la estética involucrada. Entre las técnicas de regeneración ósea que permiten solucionar estos defectos, cabe destacar la técnica de expansión de crestas. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 58 años con reborde atrófico, que se sometió a la expansión de crestas con colocación simultánea de implantes en sector anterior, con xenoinjerto previo a técnica de expansión de crestas con piezoeléctrico, colocación simultánea de implantes Narrow Connection SLActive Straumann. Se logró ganancia ósea y estabilidad primaria de los implantes, sin complicaciones. En escenarios seleccionados, la técnica de expansión de crestas de manera predecible permite ganancia de hueso horizontal adecuada, el éxito de los implantes con tasa de supervivencia y mínimas complicaciones intra y postoperatorias (AU)

Bone loss in the anterior sector, both a horizontal, vertical or combined defect is a challenge today; not only for the integration of the implant but also the aesthetic involved. There are techniques of bone regeneration that help us to solve this type of defects, among them we should highlight the crest expansion technique. We present the case of a 58-year-old patient with atrophic flange, who underwent the expansion of crests with simultaneous placement of implants in the anterior sector, with xenograft prior to the piezoelectric crest expansion technique, Simultaneous placement of Narrow Connection SLActive Straumann implants, bone gain and primary stability of the implants were obtained, without complications. In selected scenarios, the crest expansion technique could be considered a predictable approach that demonstrates a high implant survival rate, adequate horizontal bone gain, and minimal intra- and postoperative complications (AU)

The use of zygomatic implants in severe maxillary atrophy: a systematic and meta-analysis review of randomised clinical trials / El uso de implantes zigomáticos para atrofia maxilar severa: una revisión sistemática y meta-análisis de ensayos clínicos aleatorizados

SUMMARY: Conventional implant treatment cannot always be used to rehabilitate edentulous patients with advanced maxillary atrophic. Zygomatic dental implants have been used over the past 20 years as an alternative treatment solution to bone grafting. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the implant and prosthetic survival rate in non-oncologic patients with a severely atrophic maxilla. This review also aims to better understand the rate of peri-operative complications in this cohort of patients. A multi-database (PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHAL) focused systematic search was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations. Any randomised control trials studies involving human participants treated with zygomatic osseous implants were included. After eliminating duplicates, a total of 4 studies met the inclusion criteria for this meta-analysis review. With all the studies included there was a total of 174 patients treated with zygomatic osseous implants. The overall implant success rate was 98.03 %. The prosthetic success rate was 96.4 %. The most frequent peri-operative complication was sinusitis. Based on the limited data available in literature, zygomatic dental implants represent a valid alternative to bone augmenting procedure. However, they are not without risks and longer follow-ups are required to confirm the validity of the treatment in long term.

Los tratamientos convencionales con implantes no siempre pueden ser usados para rehabilitar pacientes edentulos con atrofia maxilar avanzada. Los implantes dentales zigomáticos son usados por los pasados 20 años como alternativa de tratamiento a las reconstrucciones óseas. El objetivo de este meta-análisis es evaluar la sobrevida de implantes y prótesis en pacientes no oncológicos con maxila severamente atrófica. Esta revisión también pretende entender al promedio de complicaciones peri operatorias en esta cohorte de pacientes. Una búsqueda sistemática en bases de datos múltiples (PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE y CINAHAL) fue desarrollada de acuerdo a recomendaciones de Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Cualquier estudio clínico aleatorizado de participantes humanos donde se utilizaron los implantes zigomáticos fueron incluidos. Después de eliminar duplicados, un total de 4 estudios cumplieron los criterios de inclusión para esta meta análisis. Con todos los estudios incluidos se obtuvieron 174 pacientes tratados con implantes zigomáticos. El promedio de éxito fue de 98,03 %. El promedio de éxito de la rehabilitación fue de 96,4 %. La complicación mas frecuente fue la sinusitis. Basados en los datos limitados en la literatura, los implantes zigomáticos representan una alternativa valida a los procedimientos de aumento óseo. Sin embargo, estos no están libres de riesgos y seguimientos de mayores periodos son necesarios para confirmar la validez de los tratamientos en el largo plazo.

Colocación de implantes en paciente con antecedentes de toma de bifosfonatos / Placement of implants in a patient with a history of bisphosphonates taken

El uso de bifosfonatos es un excelente tratamiento para pacientes con artritis reumatoide y enfermedades óseas, por ejemplo, osteoporosis. Se realiza un reporte de caso de paciente femenino, quien estuvo bajo consumo de este fármaco por prescripción de su médico para la prevención de artritis reumatoide postmenopausia. La paciente acude a consulta para la colocación de implantes en zona desdentada y comenta haber terminado el tratamiento de bifosfonatos hace un año. Se tomaron pruebas de diagnóstico y se realizó la colocación de implantes sin ninguna complicación. Sus citas de control fueron más frecuentes en cuatro meses, sobre todo por el detalle de consumo de bifosfonatos, pero en ninguna cita hubo algún detalle alarmante, la cicatrización iba en forma. Se dio de alta a la paciente después de sus citas periódicas y de asegurar su buena cicatrización a un implante bien situado (AU))

The use of bisphosphonates is an excellent treatment for patients with rheumatoid arthritis and bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Here is a case report of a female patient, who was under consumption of this drug by prescription of her doctor for the prevention of post-menopausal rheumatoid arthritis. The patient went to the consultation for the placement of implants in the edentulous area and comments having finished the bisphosphonate treatment one year ago. The diagnostic tests were taken, and the implant placement was performed well without any complications. The control appointments were more frequent in four months, especially due to the detail of bisphosphonate consumption, but in no appointment, there were any alarming details, the healing was in good shape. The patient discharged after her regular appointments and to ensure that she was healing well and that implant was well placed (AU)

Clinical decision making of implant guidance methods guided by new classification of surgical area mouth ope-ning / 华西口腔医学杂志

When selecting implant guidance methods or judging whether the patient can be implanted, many doctors ignore or only use visual inspection to estimate a patient's mouth opening. This phenomenon often leads to failure to complete the implantation due to insufficient mouth opening or the deflection of the implant due to limited angle, resulting in the high incidence of corresponding complications. The main reason is that doctors lack accurate analysis and control of the overall geometric conditions of the intraoral surgical area, and three-dimensional position blocking of surgical instruments occurs during the operation. In the past, mouth opening was defined as the distance between the incisor edges of the upper and lower central incisors when the patient opens his mouth widely, and the implant area could be in any missing tooth position. When it is in the posterior tooth area, the specific measurement scheme of the mouth opening could not be simply equivalent to the previous measurement method in the anterior tooth area. However, how to measure quickly and conveniently the mouth opening of any surgical area to determine whether it could be implanted and meet the needs of the selected guidance method remains unclear. This paper introduces new concepts, establishes new classification and corresponding accurate measurement scheme of implant area, and establishes a decision tree of implant methods guided by the actually measured value. Results provide a quantitative basis for rational formulation and implementation of implant treatment.

Elevación unilateral de piso de seno maxilar con ventana lateral utilizando xenoinjerto: reporte de caso / Unilateral elevation of maxillary sinus floor with lateral window using xenografts: report of a case

En maxilares atróficos la elevación de piso de seno es una práctica de alta predictibilidad. El adve- nimiento de materiales osteoconductores que generan andamiaje para la formación ósea propor- cionaron un aumento en la tasa de éxito de los implantes endoóseos. El presente artículo reporta un caso clínico en el cual se llevo a cabo un aumento del nivel de altura del piso de seno unila- teralmente por medio de la técnica de Cadwell- Luck modificada por Tatum, técnica con ventana lateral, donde se utilizó xenoinjerto óseo (OstiumMAX, implante de matriz ósea bovina, Laboratorio Bioxen) y membrana reabsorbible de colágeno( Laboratorio Bioxen) en el primer tiempo quirúrgi- co y seis meses después, en el segundo acto quirúrgico se colocaron tres implantes endoóseos (Sistema de implante dental TRP, Laboratorio Tormicron S.R.L.). Los resultados obtenidos fueron controlados en forma mediata y a distancia a través de radiografías panorámicas y tomografías computadas tipo Cone Beam, donde se midió la altura ósea generada post injerto. Pudo consta- tarse el éxito del procedimiento, basándonos en criterios clínico radiograficos de oseointegración (AU)

Impacto de cesación de tabaquismo en la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud bucal de fumadores con implantes oseointegrados / The impact of tobacco cesation on life quality related to oral health

El tabaquismo es un importante factor de riesgo para las enfermedades periodontales y periimplantares. Los fumadores tienen más posibilidades de presentar pérdida de dientes e implantes y puede promover un impacto negativo en la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud bucal (QVRSB). Este estudio prospectivo tiene como objetivo verificar el impacto de la cesación de tabaquismo sobre la QVRSB de pacientes fumadores que recibieron implantes oseointegrados. Todos los participantes recibieron terapia antitabáquica y rehabilitación protética implantosoportada. Fue aplicado un cuestionario OHIP-14 para evaluar la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud bucal. La exposición a tabaco fue evaluada por dedio de un cuestionario estructurado y validado por medición de los niveles de monóxido de carbono expirado. Pacientes que consiguieron dejar de fumar (NF) fueron comparados con pacientes fumadores que no consiguieron dejar de fumar(F) en relación al OHIP-14. Durante el período de estudio, fueron incluídos 83 pacientes, de los cuales 77 permanecieron hasta el final del estudio. La media de cigarros fumados por día fue de 14,3 y un número medio de años de tabaquismo fue de 29,8 años. Hubo reducción significativa de los escores medios de OHIP-14 en los dos grupos: que dejaron de fumar que no consiguieron de dejar de fumar. Por otro lado, no hubo diferencia entre los grupos en relación a la media de OHIP-14. Dentro de los límites del estudio, concluímos que dejar de fumar no tiene impacto significativo en la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud bucal (AU)

Feasibility analysis of immediate implant placement in the maxillary molar region / 中华口腔医学杂志

Objective: To study the clinical outcomes and feasibility of immediate implantation after flap surgery and minimally invasive extraction in the maxillary molar area and to provide a reference for it. Methods: Forty-one patients (41 molars in total) with maxillary molars that could not be preserved, treated from June 2018 to June 2020 at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, were selected. There are 24 males and 17 females with the age of (49.7±1.8) years (range 18-66 years). Pre-operative cone-beam CT (CBCT) was taken for measurement and analysis. After flap surgery and minimally invasive tooth extraction, the inflammatory granulation tissues attached to the soft and hard tissues were completely scraped and clipped, followed by the preparation of the implants in the correct three-dimensional position. Torque value and implant stability quotient (ISQ) were recorded after implant placement and with non-submerged healing. CBCT examination was taken 6 months after surgery and ISQ value was checked before crown restoration. CBCT examination was also taken 1 year after the permanent restoration. The survival rate of 6 months after surgery, the success rate of 1 year after permanent restoration, and the size of jump gaps immediately after surgery, 6 months after surgery, 1 year after permanent restoration respectively, were performed. The ISQ values were compared immediately and 6 months after surgery. Results: A total of 41 implants were placed in 41 patients. Six months after surgery, the survival rate was 100% (41/41). Twelve months after permanent restoration, the success rate of the implant restoration was 100% (41/41). The torque value after implant implantation was (42.77±0.79) N·cm. The buccal and palatal jump gaps were (3.15±0.16) mm and (2.86±0.18) mm immediately after surgery, respectively. The mesial and distal jump gaps were (2.94±0.19) mm and (3.77±0.21) mm, respectively. CBCT showed that no jump gap around the implants at 6 months after surgery and 1 year after permanent restoration. The ISQ values at immediately and 6 months after surgery were (74.78±0.59) and (80.20±0.49) respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-9.03, P<0.001). Conclusions: Immediate dental implantation in the correct three-dimensional position could achieve good osseointegration by means of flap surgery, minimally invasive extraction and thorough removal of inflammatory tissue on the surface of soft and hard tissues. The clinical outcomes were satisfactory.

Planejamento reverso em implantodontia: revisão de literatura / Reverse planning in implantology: literature review

A Odontologia atual apresenta relevantes mudanças no processo de reabilitação oral. Com isso, a instalação de implantes osseointegrados, constituem uma importante ferramenta neste âmbito, pois permitem a devolução da função mastigatória, permitindo também que os pacientes tenham a estética recuperada. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar uma revisão de literatura, sobre a importância de um planejamento prévio, chamado também de planejamento reverso, o mesmo aponta um maior sucesso no processo reabilitador, apresentando-se como uma técnica que busca facilitar e estudar a correta reabilitação do paciente, proporcionando uma melhor previsibilidade para o tratamento, a partir do momento em que se planeja a reabilitação oral protética antes mesmo de se pensar no processo cirúrgico de implantes osseointegrados. Conclui-se com esse trabalho que o sucesso do tratamento com implantes depende diretamente de um prévio plano de tratamento, independentemente da extensão da área edêntula, quando é realizado um planejamento reverso diminuiu-se a taxa de intercorrências, além de aumentar a taxa de sucesso no processo de reabilitação(AU)

Current Dentistry presents relevant changes in the oral rehabilitation process. As a result, the installation of osseointegrated implants is na important tool in this context, as it allows the return of lost teeth, also allowing patients to have their function and aesthetics recovered. For greater success of the rehabilitation process, reverse planning presents itself as a technique that seeks to facilitate the correct rehabilitation of the patient, allowing better predictability for the treatment from the moment that the prosthetic oral rehabilitation is planned before even thinking about the surgical process of osseointegrated implants. The success of treatment with implants depends directly on a properly planned treatment plan, regardless of the extent of the edentulous area. This paper aims to conduct a literature review on the importance of reverse planning in implantology(AU)

Short vs standard implants associated with sinus floor elevation: a randomized controlled trial / Implantes curtos versus implantes convencionais associados à elevação do seixo maxilar: um ensaio clínico randomizado

Objective: the present equivalence two-arm parallel randomized controlled trial aimed to compare survival and marginal bone loss (MBL) of short implants (≤6 mm) and standard implants (≥8.5 mm) associated with sinus floor elevation (SFE). Methods: adult patients with partial edentulism with occlusal stability in the sinus area and intermediate bone height were selected in this double-blind trial (patient and outcome assessment). Patients were randomly allocated into two groups: standard length implants with SFE (control) or short implants (test). Clinical and radiographic assessments were made at the time of implant placement, 6 months, and annually thereafter up to 2 years after loading. The inter-examiner agreement was analyzed using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). One-way ANOVA, Kaplan-Meier, and Log-rank tests were used to compare implant survival (primary outcome) and MBL (secondary outcome) (P<0.05). Results: eight short implants and six standard implants were placed (mean age of patients was 47 ±12.5 years). The implant survival rates were 87.5% for short (one 5 mm implant failed at 7 months) and 100% for standard implants with no statistically significant difference between groups (P=0.4). The mean MBL after 1 year was 0.30 ±0.62 mm for short and 0.21 ±0.36 mm for standard implants (P=0.123). The inter-examiner agreement was set in 0.831. Conclusion: survival of short implants and standard implants associated with SFE was similar after two years of clinical service.

Homogenous Bone Grafts as an Alternative in Oral Rehabilitation Treatments with Dental Implants / Los Injertos Óseos Homogéneos como una Alternativa en los Tratamientos de Rehabilitación Oral con Implantes Dentales

ABSTRACT: The present study aims to describe, through a case report, the functioning of bone grafts, where they are obtained including bone banks and the different dental areas in which it is used. A 50-year.old female patient HMR, sought the postgraduate college of dentistry CECAPE for oral rehabilitation. The initial clinical examination revealed the absence of several dental elements in both the maxilla and mandi ble, bone resorption in the entire maxillary extension where there was an absence of elements in the anterior region and the presence of a torus in the palatal region. Initial tomographic examinations of the maxilla and mandible were performed, looking for the best conduct regarding the diagnosis and planning of the case. After the clinical and radiographic examinations was performed, and the diagnosis was reached, it was determined as a treatment for oral rehabilitation of the maxilla, bone grafting and an Implant-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis and for the mandible a Dento-muco-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis. Dental treatments and oral rehabilitation from the use of bone tissues and bone grafting have become commonly used. Procedures that would normally lead to failure started to increase the percentage of successes due to the use of these biomaterials. The use of bone grafts in dentistry has been shown to be a very effective and useful resource, considering its great applicability in bone reconstructions in different areas of dentistry.

RESUMEN: El presente estudio tiene como objetivo describir a través de un informe de caso, el funcionamiento de los injertos óseos, donde se obtienen, incluidos los bancos de huesos y las diferentes áreas dentales en las que se emplea. Una paciente HMR, de 50 años de edad, asistió el centro universitario de posgrado CECAPE para rehabilitación oral. El examen clínico inicial reveló la ausencia de varios dientes tanto en el maxilar como en la mandíbula, la resorción ósea en toda la extensión maxilar donde había ausencia de dientes en la región anterior y la presencia de un torus en la región palatina. Se realizaron exámenes tomográficos iniciales del maxilar y mandíbula, buscando la mejor conducta con respecto al diagnóstico y la planificación del caso. Después de los exámenes clínicos y radiográficos realizados y el diagnóstico listo, se determinó como un tratamiento para la rehabilitación oral del maxilar, el injerto óseo y una prótesis removible implantosoportada y para la mandíbula una prótesis parcial removible dento-muco-soportada. Los tratamientos dentales y la rehabilitación oral a partir del uso de tejidos óseos y el injerto óseo se han utilizado comúnmente. Los procedimientos que normalmente conducirían al fracaso comenzaron a aumentar el porcentaje de éxitos debido al uso de estos biomateriales. Se ha demostrado que el uso de injertos óseos en odontología es un recurso muy eficaz y útil, considerando su gran aplicabilidad en las reconstrucciones óseas en diferentes áreas de la odontología.

ULTRA Tomografia Computadorizada Multidetectores com ultra baixa dose de radiação e impressão 3D como auxiliares para cirurgia guiada em implantodontia / Ultra-low dose Multidetector CT and 3D printing as aids to guided implant surgery

Objetivo: relatar um caso clínico de reabilitação com implante dentário imediato realizado utilizando Tomografia Computadorizada Multidetectores (TCMD) com ultra baixa dose de radiação, software de código aberto para manipulação das imagens e impressão 3D de baixo custo do guia cirúrgico. Relato de caso: paciente, sexo masculino, 50 anos de idade, foi avaliado clinicamente relatando dor na região do dente 45, com suspeita de fratura radicular. Como complemento ao exame clínico, o paciente realizou TCMD com ultra baixa dose de radiação para avaliar a condição dentária e do tecido ósseo adjacente. Tendo sido diagnosticada fratura radicular vertical, procedeu-se ao planejamento virtual do implante e à confecção do guia cirúrgico. As imagens em formato DICOM da TCMD foram convertidas para formato STL (Stereolithography) para manipulação e confecção do guia cirúrgico virtual. Esse guia foi impresso em PLA (poliácido láctico) utilizando impressora 3D pelo método FDM (Fusão e Deposição de Material). Após a exodontia atraumática, o guia cirúrgico foi posicionado nos dentes adjacentes e o implante foi inserido. Clinicamente, o paciente encontra-se assintomático, o implante sem sinais clínicos de inflamação e a prótese em função. Uma segunda tomografia do paciente permitiu comparar de forma tridimensional a posição final do implante e o planejamento virtual, que se mostraram equivalentes. Considerações finais: a impressão 3D em PLA mostrou-se uma solução com custo acessível para a produção de guias cirúrgicos, fornecendo previsibilidade e segurança ao implantodontista.(AU)

Objective: to report a clinical case of rehabilitation with dental implant performed using ultra- -low dose Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT), open source software for image manipulation, and low cost 3D printing of the surgical guide. Case report: a 50-year-old male patient was clinically evaluated complaining of pain in the tooth 45, and a root fracture was suspected. As a complement to the clinical examination, the patient performed an ultra-low dose MDCT to assess the dental condition and the adjacent bone tissue. A vertical root fracture was diagnosed, and then the virtual planning of the implant and preparation of the surgical guide were performed. The DICOM images from the MDCT were converted into STL (Stereolithography) format for manipulation and confection of the virtual surgical guide. The surgical guide was printed on PLA using a 3D printer by the FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) method. After atraumatic extraction, the surgical guide was placed in the adjacent teeth and the implant was inserted. Clinically, the patient is asymptomatic, the implant has no clinical signs of inflammation, and the prosthesis is in function. A second ultra- -low dose MDCT of the patient allowed a three-dimensional comparison of the final position of the implant and the virtual planning, which were shown to be equivalent. Final considerations: 3D PLA printing has proved to be an affordable solution for the production of surgical guides, providing predictability and safety for the implantologist.(AU)

Estabilidad primaria en implantes inmediatos versus implantes colocados en hueso maduro: un estudio clínico retrospectivo / Primary stability in immediate implants versus implants placed in mature bone: a retrospective clinical study

La estabilidad primaria es un requisito importante para la supervivencia y éxito de los implantes durante la osteointegración. En los últimos años, los implantes inmediatos postextracción han demostrado ser una opción de tratamiento exitosa y predecible para la reposición de dientes con mal pronóstico, pero surge la duda de si dichos implantes alcanzan valores de estabilidad primaria comparables a aquellos colocados en hueso maduro. Comparar la estabilidad primaria de implantes inmediatos colocados en alveolos postextracción con la de implantes colocados en hueso maduro. Se llevó a cabo un estudio clínico retrospectivo, con los datos recogidos sobre 175 implantes, colocados en 175 pacientes. Todos los implantes colocados pertenecían al modelo Essential Cone (Klockner Implant System) y se dividieron en dos grupos: implantes inmediatos (Grupo A, n=31) e implantes colocados en hueso maduro (Grupo B, n=144). La estabilidad primaria de todos los implantes se midió mediante torque de inserción y análisis de frecuencia de resonancia con Osstell ISQ. No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas respecto a la estabilidad medida a través del torque de inserción (26,29+10,07 Vs 25,76+9,72 N/cm) pero sí que se encontraron diferencias significativas en la medida de la estabilidad primaria mediante AFR, siendo inferiores los valores correspondientes a los implantes colocados en los alveolos post exodoncia (60,74 ± 6,17 en sentido VL y 62,19 ± 7.64 en sentido MD frente a 68,34 ± 6.26 en sentido VL y 69,29 ± 7.98 en sentido MD obtenidos en los implantes colocados en hueso maduro). El torque de inserción de los implantes inmediatos es similar al de los implantes colocados en hueso maduro, pero sus valores ISQ son significativamente inferiores, lo que demuestra un mayor grado de micromovimiento, y por consiguiente, un mayor riesgo de fracaso durante el período de osteointegración.

Primary stability is an important requirement for the survival and success of implants during osseointegration. In recent years, immediate post-extraction implants have proven to be a successful and predictable treatment option for the replacement of teeth with a poor prognosis, but the question arises as to whether these implants reach primary stability values comparable to those placed in mature bone. The objective of the study was to compare the primary stability of immediate implants placed in post-extraction alveoli with that of implants placed in mature bone. A retrospective clinical study was carried out, with data collected on 175 implants, placed in 175 patients. All implants placed belonged to the Essential Cone model (Klockner Implant System) and were divided into two groups: immediate implants (Group A, n = 31) and implants placed in mature bone (Group B, n = 144). The primary stability of all implants was measured by insertion torque and resonance frequency analysis with Osstell ISQ. No statistically significant differences were found regarding the stability measured through the insertion torque (26.29 + 10.07 Vs 25.76 + 9.72 N / cm) but significant differences were found in the measurement of primary stability by means of AFR, the values corresponding to implants placed in the post-exodontic alveoli being lower (60.74 ± 6.17 in the VL direction and 62.19 ± 7.64 in the MD direction versus 68.34 ± 6.26 in the VL direction and 69.29 ± 7.98 in the MD direction obtained in implants placed in mature bone). The insertion torque of immediate implants is similar to that of implants placed in mature bone, but their ISQ values are significantly lower, which demonstrates a higher degree of micromotion, and therefore, a greater risk of failure during the period of osseointegration.

Aumento óseo horizontal utilizando técnica "Tent Pole" en mandíbula posterior / Horizontal augmentation using "Tent Pole" technique in posterior mandible

Los aumentos óseos previo a la instalación de implantes son cada vez mas utilizados y el diseño de nuevas estrategias para disminuir la morbilidad deben ser considerados. El objetivo de esta investigación fue definir el aumento óseo generado con la técnica "tent pole" en sector de mandíbula posterior. Se diseño un estudio longitudinal, prospectivo para estudiar la técnica. Se incluyeron sujetos con ancho óseo no mayor a 4 mm en el sector posterior y con altura no menor a 9 mm desde el margen superior del conducto alveolar inferior. Se realizaron cirugías bajo anestesia local realizando un acceso quirúrgico; se instalaron de 2 a 4 tornillos de osteosíntesis manteniendo 4 mm del tornillo extraóseo para luego reconstruir con biomaterial alógeno y L-PRF en conjunto con una membrana biológica absorbible; después de 4 meses se realizaron las re entradas estableciendo con tomografía computadorizada de haz cónico las ganancias óseas generadas. Fueron operados 14 sujetos con 27 sitios quirúrgicos; en todos los casos se pudo realizar la instalación de implantes a los 4 meses. En la evaluación inicial, el ancho óseo observado estaba entre 1,2 y 4,0 mm (promedio de 2,95 ± 0,75 mm); después de 4 meses de realizado el aumento horizontal el ancho observado fue de 3,79 y 10,05 mm (promedio de 7,15 mm ± 1,87 mm), confirmando una ganancia ósea promedio de 4,2 ± 1,26 mm. La diferencia obtenida fue significativa (p< 0,05). Se puede concluir que la técnica "tent pole" aplicada en esta investigación es predecible en el aumento óseo y aplicable para la rehabilitación sobre implante.

Bone augmentation prior to implant placement, is among strategies that should be considered to reduce morbidity rates in these procedures. The objective of this research was to define bone augmentation generator using the "tent pole " technique in the posterior jaw. A longitudinal, prospective study was designed, and subjects were included with ridge width no greater than 4 mm, height no less than 9 mm from the upper margin of the inferior alveolar canal. Surgeries were performed under local anesthesia for surgical approach; 2 to 4 osteosynthesis screws over ridge with 4 mm of the extra osseous screws were installed and were then regenerated, using allogeneic biomaterial and L-PRF together with an absorbable biological membrane. Re-entry was performed after four months and cone beam computed tomography analysis was used to confirm bone gain. Fourteen subjects were operated with 27 surgical sites; in all the cases, implant installation was possible at 4 months. In the initial evaluation, bone width observed was between 1.2 and 4.0 mm (average of 2.95 ± 0.75 mm); after 4 months of the horizontal increase, width was recorded at 3.79 and 10.05 mm (average of 7.15 mm ± 1.87 mm), confirming an average bone increase of 4.2 ± 1.26 mm. The difference obtained was significant (p <0.05). It can be concluded that the "tent pole" technique applied in this analysis is predictable in bone augmentation and applicable for implant rehabilitation.

Reabilitação de maxila atrófica com implantes zigomáticos: relato de caso / Rehabilitation of atrophic maxilla with zygomatic implants: case report

Introdução: maxilas severamente atrofiadas representam um desafio às reabilitações implantossuportadas. A reconstrução maxilar com enxertos ósseos para permitir a reabilitação com implantes osseointegrados é um tratamento com boa previsibilidade e alto índice de sucesso. No entanto, a morbidade causada pela necessidade de regiões doadoras e grande quantidade de osso dificulta a aceitação dos pacientes, podendo, inclusive, ser contraindicada dependendo da condição sistêmica. Objetivos: revisar a literatura, discutir as indicações, as complicações, a previsibilidade das reabilitações com implantes zigomáticos, assim como relatar um caso. Relato de caso: os implantes zigomáticos surgiram como uma alternativa para a reabilitação de pacientes maxilectomizados, decorrente da exérese de tumores, perdas ósseas decorrentes de infecções ou traumas, e casos de atrofia óssea severa, como abordado no caso em questão, em que a paciente apresentava edentulismo total em maxila e não gostaria mais de utilizar a prótese convencional, optando pela prótese sobre implante. Considerações finais: a reabilitação com implantes zigomáticos pode apresentar complicações, como o mau posicionamento dos implantes, comprometendo a reabilitação; todavia, apesar das restrições da técnica, a literatura mostra que os implantes zigomáticos, quando bem indicados, representam uma boa alternativa para a reabilitação de maxilas severamente atrofiadas.(AU)

Introduction: severely atrophied jaws pose a challenge to implant-supported rehabilitations. Maxillary reconstruction with bone graft to allow rehabilitation with implants is a treatment with good predictability and high success rate. However, a morbidity is the disease of the donor regions and the greater amount of bone hinders the acceptance of the patients; including, to be contraindicated depending on the systemic condition. Objectives: this article is a review of the literature, such as the indications, complications, predictability of rehabilitations with zygomatic implants, as well as a case report. Case report: the zygomatic implants appeared as an alternative for the rehabilitation of maxilectomized patients, due to the excision of tumors, bone losses due to infections or trauma and cases of severe bone atrophy, as approached in the case in question, in which the patient had total maxillary edentulism and would no longer like to use the conventional prosthesis, opting for the implant prosthesis. Final considerations: rehabilitation with zygomatic implants may present complications, such as poor placement of implants, compromising rehabilitation; however, despite the limitations of the technique, the literature shows that zygomatic implants, when well indicated, represent a good alternative for the rehabilitation of severely atrophied maxilla.(AU)

Preservación alveolar post extracción en zona estética: decisiones clinicas predecibles en sitio severamente afectado / Alveolar ridge preservation in the esthesic zone: predictable decisions in a severly affected site

INTRODUCCIÓN: La valoración particular de sitios severamente comprometidos, involucra considerar los tiempos necesarios de cicatrización, así como evidencia actual en términos de biomateriales y técnicas quirúrgicas con el fin de lograr un tratamiento exitoso. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Paciente sexo femenino, 28 años, asiste por dolor e infección en diente 2.1 al Postítulo de Periodoncia UDD. Se observa defecto extenso y lesión que compromete tanto las tablas óseas vestibular como palatina. El tratamiento consistió en: exodoncia y regeneración ósea, instalación del implante 6 meses después de la exodoncia y cirugía de conexión 7 meses después más injerto de tejidos blandos. RESULTADOS: El tratamiento de defectos combinados (tejidos duros y blandos), asociados a procesos infecciosos de larga data, mediante rehabilitación implanto soportada puede ser muy predecible y exitoso en la medida que se respeten los tiempos de regeneración de diferentes estructuras.

INTRODUCTION: The specific assessment of a severely compromised sites involves: the consideration of healing time according to the different kinds of tissues involved and the knowledge of the evidence available concerning biomaterials and surgical techniques. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Female patient attends the postgraduate school of periodontics, UDD University in Santiago de Chile, because of pain and chronic infection compromising tooth 2.1. At clinical evaluation, the site has an extensive defect, with active fistula that compromises the buccal and palatal bone plates. The treatment consisted of exodontia and guided bone regeneration, implantation six months after initial exodontia and abutment connection surgery seven months after implant insertion. RESULTS: the treatment of combined defects associated with a long-standing infectious process can be very predictable and successful, only if the measures of time and tissue handling are considered and applied.

Survival of short dental implants in atrophied jaw: a systematic review

AIM: Short implants are manufactured for use in atrophic regions of the jaw. Therefore, the current does not sufficiently reveal a direct correlation between the impact of implant length on implant survival. The purpose of this systematic review was to compile the evidence of short implant survival in atrophied jaws. METHODS: Electronic and manual literature searches were performed by two independent reviewers in several databases, including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register, for articles up to September 2015 using the following terms in some combinations: "short implant", "mandible/atrophied jaws", and "implant survival/ survival rate/ survival analysis". RESULTS: The 19 included studies present in average 5.5 years (range 1.0-20.0 years) follow-up and 96.1% (range 73.4-100.0 percent) survival rate of the short implants in atrophied mandibular. CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review found evidences regarding to safety of short implant placement in atrophied jaws although stronger evidence is essential to confirm this finding.

Effects of restraint stress and high-fat diet on osseointegration of titanium implants: an experimental study

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effects of chronic restraint stress (RS) and a high-fat diet (HFD) on the osseointegration of titanium implants in a rat model. After the surgical insertion of titanium implants into the metaphysis of the tibial bone, the rats were randomly divided into four equal groups (n = 8 each): control (CNT), restraint stress (RS), high-fat diet (HFD), and restraint stress plus high fat diet (RS-HFD). CNT: Rats received no further treatment during the 92-day experimental period. RS: Stress was applied to the rats beginning from two days after the implant surgery for one hour per day for the first 30 days, two hours per day for the next 30 days, and three hours per day for the last 30 days. HFD: Rats were fed a HFD for the following 90 days starting two days after surgery. RS-HFD: Rats were fed a HFD and RS was applied to rats for the following 90 days, starting two days after surgery. At the end of the experimental period, the rats were euthanized, and the implants and surrounding bone tissues were removed for histological analysis. Statistical analysis was performed by one way ANOVA and Bonferrroni tests. There were no significant differences in the bone-implant connection levels between the groups (p > 0.05), but in the HFD and RS-HFD groups, the bone filling ratios were found to be lower compared with the controls (p < 0.05) The data analyzed in this study suggest that an HFD with or without chronic RS adversely affected bone tissue in the rats during the 90-day osseointegration period.
