RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Non-perforated Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes are effectively utilized in guided bone regeneration (GBR) but may hinder cell migration due to limited interaction with the periosteum. This study compared bone regeneration using occlusive or perforated membranes combined with acellular collagen sponge (ACS) and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in a canine mandibular model. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Male beagle dogs (n=3) received two mandibular defects each to compare ACS/rhBMP-2 with experimental (perforated group) and control (non-perforated group) membranes (n=3 defects/group). Tissue healing was assessed histomorphologically, histomorphometrically and through volumetric reconstruction using microcomputed tomography. RESULTS: The perforated group showed increased bone formation and reduced soft tissue formation compared to the non-perforated group. For the primary outcome, histomorphometric analysis revealed significantly greater total regenerated bone in the perforated group (67.08 ± 6.86%) relative to the nonperforated group (25.18 ± 22.44%) (p = 0.036). Perforated membranes had less soft tissue infiltration (32.91 ± 6.86%) compared to non-perforated membranes (74.82 ± 22.44%) (p = 0.036). CONCLUSION: The increased permeability of membranes in the perforated group potentially enabled periosteal precursor cells greater accessibility to rhBMP-2. The availability may have accelerated their differentiation into mature bone-forming cells, contributing to the stimulation of new bone production, relative to the non-perforated group.
RESUMEN
This systematic review addressed the implant success rate after mandible reconstruction with vascularized fibula bone graft. Therefore, preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis guidelines were used to perform the systematic review, and the search included following databases: PubMed, Lilacs, Google Scholar, Open Gray, Science Direct and Cochrane. A search of medical subject headings (MeSH) and related terms (fibula) OR (vascularized) OR (microvascularized) AND (implant) OR (rehabilitation) OR (osseointegrated) AND (mandible) OR (jaw) OR (maxillofacial), without any language or time restrictions until October 2017 was carried out. The eligible studies primarily consisted of clinical cohorts designed to evaluate the feasibility of mandible reconstruction using vascularized fibula bone grafts and implant-supported rehabilitations, with a minimum observation period of 12 months. After screening, 13 eligible cohort studies for this review were selected (3 retrospective and 10 prospective). Of 285 vascularized fibular reconstructions, only 6 failures were reported with a success rate of approximately 98% after a mean follow-up period of 40 months. In total, 910 implants were placed in vascularized fibular grafts with a success rate of 92.6% (range, 82%-100%) after 40 months. Also, similar success rates for primary (95%; range, 93%-100%) and secondary (91%; range, 83%-100%) implant surgeries have been demonstrated. Considering risk factors, implant survival in irradiated patients was usually lower (76%; range, 38%-88%) than nonirradiated patients (90%; range, 83%-94%); however, it was significantly different in only 1 study. Alcohol and tobacco use has shown no significant association with implant failure in any study. Hence, implant placement in vascularized fibula bone graft presented similar success rates relative to native mandible bone rehabilitations.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo performance of two different deproteinized bovine bone (DBB) grafting materials: DBBB (Bio-Oss®) and DBBL (Laddec®), for the regeneration of critically sized (8 mm) defects in rabbit's calvaria. Three round-shaped defects were surgically created in the calvaria of 13 New Zealand White rabbits proximal to the coronal suture in the parietal bone. Two of the defects were filled with one of the grafting materials while a third was left empty to serve as a negative control. Bone regeneration properties were evaluated at 4- and 8-weeks after implantation by means of histological and histomorphometrical analyses. Statistical analyses were performed through a mixed model analysis with fixed factors of time and material. Histological evaluation of the control group evidenced a lack of bridging bone formation across the defect sites at both evaluation time points. For the experimental groups, new bone formation was observed around the defect periphery and to progress radially inwards to the center of the defect site, regardless of the grafting material. Histomorphometric analyses at 4 weeks demonstrated higher amount of bone formation through the defect for DBBB group. However, at 8 weeks, DBBL and DBBB demonstrated osteoconductivity and low resorption rates with evidence of statistically similar bone regeneration through the complete boney defect. Finally, DBBB presented lower soft tissue migration within the defect when compared to DBBL at both evaluation time points. DBBB and DBBL presented similar bone regeneration performance and slow resorption rates. Although both materials promoted bone regeneration through the complete defect, DBBB presented lower soft tissue migration within the defects at 4- and 8-weeks.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to appraise the diagnostic performance of periapical (PR) and panoramic (PANO) radiographs and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in detecting artificial circumferential gaps simulating osseointegration failure around dental implants in ex vivo studies. STUDY DESIGN: Seven electronic databases and three gray literature sources were searched. Studies reporting diagnostic performance measures or data allowing calculation of those measures compared with the reference standard of in situ direct measurements were considered eligible. Either the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve or accuracy was chosen to summarize findings, with diagnostic performance interpreted as poor, acceptable, excellent, or outstanding. Risk of bias (RoB) was also assessed. RESULTS: The ten included studies mostly suggested overall excellent to outstanding diagnostic capability with PR and CBCT. Various enhancement filters, CBCT voxel sizes, and/or fields of view were associated with acceptable to outstanding efficacy. PANO had the poorest results, with most research demonstrating acceptable to excellent discrimination. The RoB was high for seven studies, moderate for two, and low for -one. CONCLUSIONS: PR and CBCT images were generally superior to PANO for the detection of artificial bone gaps. Results should be interpreted with caution because most studies had a high RoB.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical outcomes, histological parameters, and bone nanomechanical properties around implants retrieved from healthy and metabolic syndrome (MS) patients. METHODS: Twenty-four patients with edentulous mandibles (12/condition), received four implants between the mental foramina. An additional implant prototype was placed for retrieval histology. The following clinical outcomes were evaluated: insertion torque (IT), implant stability quotient (ISQ) values at baseline and after 60 days of healing, and implant survival. The prototype was retrieved after the healing and histologically processed for bone morphometric evaluation of bone-to-implant contact (%BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (%BAFO), and bone nanoindentation to determine the elastic modulus (Em) and hardness (H). Descriptive statistical procedures and survival tests were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: The final study population was comprised of 10 women and 11 men (â¼64 years). A total of 105 implants were placed, 21 retrieved for histology. Implant survival rates were similar between groups (>99 %). Similarly, IT and ISQ analyses showed no significant association with systemic condition (pâ¯>â¯0.216). Histological micrographs depicted similar bone morphology, woven bone, for both conditions. While MS (33⯱â¯5.3 %) and healthy (39⯱â¯6.5 %) individuals showed no significant difference for %BIC (pâ¯=â¯0.116), significantly higher %BAFO was observed for healthy (45⯱â¯4.6 %) relative to MS (30⯱â¯3.8 %) (pâ¯<â¯0.001). No significant differences on bone nanomechanical properties was observed (pâ¯>â¯0.804). CONCLUSIONS: Although no significant influence on clinical parameters and bone nanomechanical properties was observed, MS significantly reduced bone formation in the peri-implant area in the short-term. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: A lower amount of bone formation in the peri-implant area was observed in comparison to healthy patients, although the other short-term clinical outcomes were not significantly different. Considering the escalating prevalence of MS patients in need for implant treatment, it becomes crucial to understand bone-to-implant response to determine the ideal loading time in this population.

Bone graft augmentation in the anterior maxilla has a high successful rate. However, suture dehiscence and consequent bone graft exposure can compromise and fail this procedure. Therefore, this article presents a new strategy of closure technique to guarantee the bone graft augmentation. The sutures occur in muscular and mucous planes to avoid suture tension, thus decreasing complications of bone graft augmentation in the anterior maxilla.

This study evaluated the effect of alumina-blasted/acid-etched (AB/AE) or microabrasive blasting (C3-Microblasted) surface treatment on the osseointegration of commercially-pure Ti (grade II) and Ti-6Al-4V alloy (grade V) implants compared to as-machined surfaces. Surface characterization was performed by scanning electron microscopy and optical interferometry (IFM) to determine roughness parameters (Sa and Sq, nâ¯=â¯3 per group). One-hundred forty-four implants were placed in the radii of 12 beagle dogs, for histological (nâ¯=â¯72, bone-to-implant contact - BIC and bone-area-fraction occupancy -BAFO) and torque to interface failure test at 3 and 6 weeks (nâ¯=â¯72). SEM and IFM revealed a significant increase in surface texture for AB/AE and C3-Microblasted surfaces compared to machined surface, regardless of titanium substrate. Torque-to-interface failure test showed significant increase in values from as-machined to AB/AE and to C3-Microblasted. Considering time in vivo, alloy grade, and surface treatment, the C3-microblasted presented higher mean BIC values relative to AB/AE and machined surfaces for both alloy types. BAFO levels were significantly higher for both textured surfaces groups relative to the machined group at 3 weeks, but differences were not significant between the three surfaces for each alloy type at 6 weeks. Surface treatment resulted in roughness that improved osseointegration in Grade II and V titanium substrates.

Periodontal furcation defects are usually addressed by the placement of a physical barrier which may limit the regenerative potential of periodontal wounds. This study morphometrically quantified the regenerative effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in furcation defects in a non-human primate model. Grade II furcation defects (with and without induced inflammation prior to surgery) were created on the first and second molars of eight non-human primates. Defects were treated with open flap debridement and subsequently filled with either: Group A; BDNF (500 µg mL-1 ) in high-molecular weight-hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA), Group B; BDNF (50 µg mL-1 ) in HMW-HA, Group C; HMW-HA acid only, Group D; unfilled defect, or Group E; BDNF (500 µg mL-1 ) in saline. Periodontal wound healing was observed every 2 weeks by computed-tomography. At 11 weeks all animals were sacrificed and maxillary and mandibular block biopsies were referred for nondecalcified histology. Linear measurements of new cementum (cellular and acellular) and periodontal ligament (PDL) formation were performed. Computerized-tomography reconstruction and software quantification demonstrated successful bone fill for all groups. However, histometric assessment demonstrated significantly higher level of total periodontal regeneration for the 500 µg mL-1 BDNF HMW-HA relative to all other groups. No significant differences in cementogenesis were observed among groups. Significantly higher acellular cementum formation was observed for sites where inflammation was not induced prior to surgical procedures. While all groups experienced similar bone fill and cementogenesis, the 500 µg mL-1 BDNF HMW-HA appeared to most effectively repair PDL (minimum increase of â¼22% relative to all groups; over 200% relative to unfilled defects). © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The mandibular coronoid hyperplasia can be classified as a congenital or development change of the temporomandibular joint. This condition occurs due to a no-neoplasic growth of the coronoid process to the infratemporal fossa. Thus, this part of the bone impacts in the posterior face of the zygomatic bone causing limitation of the mouth opening. The aim of this paper is to report a clinical case of a 43-year-old male with mouth-opening limitation 28 years ago. After clinical and computed tomographic examinations, he was diagnosed with bilateral mandibular coronoid hyperplasia. The treatment proposed was a bilateral coronoidectomy by intraoral approach. In a 1-month postoperative period, the patient reported improvement of the painful complaints and mouth opening. After 1 year, the patient recovered the mouth opening improving his quality of life and there were no more complaints.

PURPOSE: This study investigated the effect of the osteotomy diameter for implant placement torque and its effect on the osseointegration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eight male beagle dogs received 48 implants (3.75 mm × 10 mm) in their right and left radius, 3 implants per side and allowed to heal for 3 weeks. Three experimental groups were evaluated. Group 1: implant with an undersized osteotomy of 3.0 mm; group 2: osteotomy of 3.25 mm, and group 3: osteotomy of 3.5 mm. The insertion torque was recorded for all implants. Histological sectioning and histometric analysis were performed evaluating bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO). RESULTS: Implants of group 1 presented statistically higher insertion torque than those of groups 2 and 3 (P < 0.01). No differences in BIC or BAFO were observed between the groups. From a morphologic standpoint, substantial deviations in healing mode were observed between groups. CONCLUSION: Based on the present methodology, the experimental alterations of surgical technic can be clinically used with no detrimental effect over the osseointegration process.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the bone response to grade IV commercially pure titanium (G4) relative to Ti-6Al-4V (G5). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Implant surface topography was characterized by optical interferometry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Thirty-six implants (Signo Vinces, n = 18 per group) were installed in the radius of 18 dogs. The animals were killed at 1, 3, and 6 weeks, resulting in 6 implants per group and time in vivo for bone morphology, bone-to-implant contact (BIC), and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) evaluation. RESULTS: SEM depicted a more uniform topography of G4 than G5. Surfaces were statistically homogeneous for Sa, Sq, and Sdr. At 1 week, new bone formation was observed within the healing connective tissue in contact with the implant surface. At 3 weeks, new bone in direct contact with the implant surface was observed at all bone regions. At 6 weeks, the healing chambers filled with woven bone depicted an onset of replacement by lamellar bone. No significant effect of substrate was detected. Time presented an effect on BIC and BAFO (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Both titanium substrates were biocompatible and osseoconductive at the bone tissue level.

The aim of this study was to measure the thickness of the mandible from the external cortical plate to the teeth roots on premolar and molar regions using CT scan to determine the safety margin for the application of monocortical screws for internal rigid fixation. Thirty-one patients underwent CT-scan imaging for surgical planning. The images were used to measure bilaterally the distance from the external cortex of the mandible to the roots of teeth on premolar and molar region by means of Dental Slice software (Bioparts Prototipagem Biomedica, Brasília, DF, Brazil). Mean, median, standard deviation, one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey's test were used for statistical analysis. No statistical differences for thickness were found between right and left side (p = 0.1652). The mean thickness for the left side was 4.17 ± 1.68 mm and for right side 3.93 ± 1.49 mm. Increase in mandibular thickness from anterior to posterior regions in both sides was observed and statistical difference was found among the different groups according to the measured region (p < 0.05). The present results can predict the safety zone for the use of monocortical screws in the mandible, but the use of CT scan is imperative and individual analysis is desired owing to anatomical variations. Further studies with larger samples are necessary to confirm these data and should include other anatomic structures, different regions of mandible/maxilla, as well as other ethnic groups.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the histomorphometric and histological bone response to laser-sintered implants followed by resorbable-blasting media (RBM) process relative to standard machined/RBM surface treated implants. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Six male sheep (n=6) received 2 Ti-6Al-4V implants (1 per surface) in each side of the mandible for 6 weeks in vivo. The histomorphometric parameters bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) were evaluated. RESULTS: Optical interferometry revealed higher Sa and Sq values for the laser-sintered/RBM surface in relation to standard/RBM implants. No significant differences in BIC were observed between the two groups (p>0.2), but significantly higher BAFO was observed for standard/RBM implants (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrated that both surfaces were biocompatible and osseoconductive, and the combination of laser sintering and RBM has no advantage over the standard machined implants with subsequent RBM.

Healing chambers present at the interface between implant and bone have become a target for improving osseointegration. The objective of the present study was to compare osseointegration of several implant healing chamber configurations at early time points and regions of interest within bone using an in vivo animal femur model. Six implants, each with a different healing chamber configuration, were surgically implanted into each femur of six skeletally mature beagle dogs (n = 12 implants per dog, total n = 72). The implants were harvested at 3 and 5 weeks post-implantation, non-decalcified processed to slides, and underwent histomorphometry with measurement of bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupied (BAFO) within healing chambers at both cortical and trabecular bone sites. Microscopy demonstrated predominantly woven bone at 3 weeks and initial replacement of woven bone by lamellar bone by 5 weeks. BIC and BAFO were both significantly increased by 5 weeks (p < 0.001), and significantly higher in cortical than trabecular bone (p < 0.001). The trapezoidal healing chamber design demonstrated a higher BIC than other configurations. Overall, a strong temporal and region-specific dependence of implant osseointegration in femurs was noted. Moreover, the findings suggest that a trapezoidal healing chamber configuration may facilitate the best osseointegration. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Surface topography modifications have become a key strategy for hastening the host-to-implant response to implantable materials. The present study evaluated the effect of three different carefully controlled surface texture patterns achieved through microrobotized blasting (controlled to high, medium and low roughness) relative to a larger scale blasting procedure (control) in early osseointegration in a canine model. Four commercially pure grade 2 titanium alloy implants (one of each surface) were bilaterally placed in the radii of six beagle dogs and allowed end points of 1 and 6 weeks in vivo. Following sacrifice, implants in bone were non-decalcified processed for bone morphologic and histometric (bone-to-implant contact; bone area fraction occupancy) evaluation. Surface topography was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and optical interferometry. Results showed initial osteogenic tissue interaction at one week and new bone in intimate contact with all implant surfaces at 6 weeks. At 1 and 6 weeks in vivo, higher bone-to-implant and bone area fraction occupancy were observed for the high texture pattern microrobotized blasted surface relative to others.

Endosteal dental implants have been utilized as anchors for dental and orthopedic rehabilitations for decades with one of the highest treatment success rates in medicine. Such success is due to the phenomenon of osseointegration where after the implant surgical placement, bone healing results into an intimate contact between bone and implant surface. While osseointegration is an established phenomenon, the route which osseointegration occurs around endosteal implants is related to various implant design factors including surgical instrumentation and implant macro, micro, and nanometer scale geometry. In an implant system where void spaces (healing chambers) are present between the implant and bone immediately after placement, its inherent bone healing pathway results in unique opportunities to accelerate the osseointegration phenomenon at the short-term and its maintenance on the long-term through a haversian-like bone morphology and mechanical properties.

This study assessed the osseointegrative effects of atmospheric pressure plasma (APP) surface treatment for implants in a canine model. Control surfaces were untreated textured titanium (Ti) and calcium phosphate (CaP). Experimental surfaces were their 80-second air-based APP-treated counterparts. Physicochemical characterization was performed to assess topography, surface energy, and chemical composition. One implant from each control and experimental group (four in total) was placed in one radius of each of the seven male beagles for three weeks, and one implant from each group was placed in the contralateral radius for six weeks. After sacrifice, bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) were assessed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed decreased surface levels of carbon and increased Ti and oxygen, and calcium and oxygen, posttreatment for Ti and CaP surfaces, respectively. There was a significant (P < 0.001) increase in BIC for APP-treated textured Ti surfaces at six weeks but not at three weeks or for CaP surfaces. There were no significant (P = 0.57) differences for BAFO between treated and untreated surfaces for either material at either time point. This suggests that air-based APP surface treatment may improve osseointegration of textured Ti surfaces but not CaP surfaces. Studies optimizing APP parameters and applications are warranted.

PURPOSE: Dual acid-etching is widely used to modify dental implant topography and enhance early bone healing. This study evaluated the histomorphometric, biomechanical, and histological bone response to acid-etched (AA) in comparison with grit-blasted/acid-etched (GB) and machined control (C) implants within sites of relatively low-bone remodeling rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Implant surface topography was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and optical interferometry (IFM). Six adult male sheep (n = 6) received 72 Ti-6Al-4V implants (n = 24 per surface) in both ilium (n = 12 per bone bilaterally). The implants remained for 3 and 6 weeks in vivo. The histomorphometric parameters bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) were evaluated. Biomechanical analysis consisted of torque-to-interface failure. RESULTS: IFM analysis showed the highest average surface roughness for GB and the highest density of summits and developed surface area percentage (P < 0.01) for AA. No difference was observed in BAFO for all groups in 3 and 6 weeks. Increased BIC and torque resistance were observed for AA implants at both time points after implantation. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, improved bone-to-implant response was observed for the AA implant surface.

Although preclinical and sparse human histology retrieval studies have shown that the interface between implant and bone is constantly remodeling, no human retrieval database has been developed to determine the effect of functional loading time and other clinical/implant design variables on osseointegration. The present study tested the hypothesis that bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) increase over functional loading time around dental implants. Due to prosthetic retreatment reasons, 93 human implant retrievals from the same manufacturer (Bicon LLC, Boston, MA, USA) were obtained over a period of approximately 15 years. The retrieved implants were under functional loading from 120 days to â¼18 years and were histomorphologic/metrically evaluated. BIC/BAFO were assessed as a function of multiple independent variables: implant surface type, diameter, length, jaw (maxilla/mandible), region (anterior/posterior), and time of functional loading. The results showed that both BIC and BAFO increased over time independently of implant design/clinical variables, supporting the postulated hypothesis.

This study investigated whether the use of a dual-layer polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/porcine-derived bioresorbable pericardium membrane enhances the osseointegration around implants compared to a single-layer porcine-derived bioresorbable pericardium membrane and a no-membrane control group. Endosseous implants were placed in the fresh extraction sockets of beagles. At 6 weeks, bone loss and apical soft tissue migration occurred in the control group, whereas bone successfully formed to the neck of the implant for the single-layer porcine-derived bioresorbable pericardium membrane group. The dual-layer PTFE/ porcine-derived bioresorbable pericardium membrane showed bone growth coronal to the neck of the implant. Bone-to-implant contact and buccal bone loss were respectively higher and lower relative to the single-layer but not statistically different.
