RESUMEN
The importance of augmenting the peri-implant soft- and hard-tissue architecture is now widely accepted. However, while most contemporary research supports this premise, clinicians are encountering peri-implant soft tissue defects with increasing frequency, which they are therefore required to reconstruct. These complications can result from the difficulty of establishing an appropriate diagnosis and treatment plan or from suboptimal clinical situations (implant malposition, insufficient vestibular alveolar bone thickness or inadequate mucosal thickness). In this context, it is the peri-implant soft-tissue phenotype that most influences esthetic and health-related results in the short and long term. This article describes two clinical cases in which a modification of the apical access technique is presented that may be useful in clinical scenarios requiring large gains in mucosal thickness. Use of the modified bilaminar apical access with de-epithelialized free gingival graft technique showed promising results, with a significant increase in mucosal thickness and satisfactory outcomes in esthetics and peri-implant health.
RESUMEN
Aggressive ossifying fibroma is a benign fibro-osseous disorder characterized by its aggressive behavior, which complicates its management. In this article, we present a case involving the recurrence of this condition in the maxillary region, with orbital and dental involvement, in a patient who had previously undergone surgery and reconstruction with a microvascularized free fibula flap. A multidisciplinary approach involving maxillofacial surgery and dentistry was employed to deliver a customized and entirely satisfactory solution for the patient. The use of 3D surgery was integral to our approach, encompassing pre-surgical digital planning and the transfer of this planning to the operating room via navigation software. Customized surgical cutting guides facilitated precise resection, while a personalized polyether ether ketone (PEEK) prosthesis was utilized for reconstruction of the malar and infraorbital region. Pre-prosthetic computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) surgery, along with dental rehabilitation using transepithelial abutments and dental prostheses on a titanium framework, were employed for dental restoration. During the postoperative period, mobility in the reconstructed maxilla was observed due to the loss of support from the initial reconstruction plate. This was addressed by replacing the plate with a custom-made titanium plate, designed to accommodate the location of the transepithelial abutments and prevent disruption of the dental rehabilitation. This case demonstrates the potential of new technologies when applied within the collaborative framework of maxillofacial surgeons and dentists, enabling effective and definitive solutions in complex reconstruction cases. Key words:Aggressive ossifying fibroma; 3D surgery; customized reconstruction; complex dental reconstruction.
RESUMEN
Introduction: To describe a clinical case on cancer patient with ablative tumor surgery, from treatment planning, surgical resection and subsequent implantological rehabilitation. Case Report: A 61-year-old male, diagnosed with a squamous cell carcinoma in the maxilla, requires the removal of the lesion and corresponding oral rehabilitation. However, two surgeries were necessary to rehabilitate the upper jaw. A custom-made prosthesis was fabricated. It was made from sintered titanium using machined subperiosteal implants with a universal external connection. Finally, a milled cobalt- chrome structure was produced and a feldspar ceramic covering was subsequently applied. Conclusions: Rehabilitation using subperiosteal implants may be an alternative tool for complex surgery involving large atrophies or cancer patients who have undergone highly ablative surgery. Key words:Oral rehabilitation, oral cancer, subperiostal implants.
RESUMEN
Maxillectomies cause malocclusion, masticatory disorders, swallowing disorders and poor nasolabial projection, with consequent esthetic and functional sequelae. Reconstruction can be achieved with conventional approaches, such as closure of the maxillary defect by microvascular free flap surgery or prosthetic obturation. Four patients with segmental maxillary defects that had been reconstructed with customized subperiosteal titanium maxillary implants (CSTMI) through virtual surgical planning (VSP), STL models and CAD/CAM titanium mesh were included. The smallest maxillary defect was 4.1 cm and the largest defect was 9.6 cm, with an average of 7.1 cm. The reconstructed maxillary vertical dimension ranged from 9.3 mm to 17.4 mm, with a mean of 13.17 mm. The transverse dimension of the maxilla at the crestal level was attempted to be reconstructed based on the pre-excision CT scan, and these measurements ranged from 6.5 mm in the premaxilla area to 14.6 mm at the posterior level. All patients were rehabilitated with a fixed prosthesis on subperiosteal implants with good esthetic and functional results. In conclusion, we believe that customized subperiosteal titanium maxillary implants (CSTMI) are a safe alternative for maxillary defects reconstruction, allowing for simultaneous dental rehabilitation while restoring midface projection. Nonetheless, prospective and randomized trials are required with long-term follow-up, to assess its long-term performance and safety.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: To describe a clinical case of a cancer patient who underwent ablative tumor surgery, including treatment planning, surgical resection and subsequent implant rehabilitation. CASE REPORT: A 61-year-old patient with a diagnosis of multicystic follicular ameloblastoma in the maxilla, in which it was necessary a multidisciplinary approach and two surgical steps. In the first surgical intervention osseointegrated implants (OII) were placed in the fibula, until their osseointegration period of 8 weeks was complete. Afterwards, in the second surgery, the micro-vascularized free fibular flap bearing the implants was transplanted into the oral cavity, in order to perform simultaneous reconstruction and early rehabilitation. The final prosthetic rehabilitation consisted in a hybrid prosthesis fabricated using CAD CAM technology. RESULTS: The latest advances in medical research have improved our understanding of the oral cavity's regenerative capacity after oncological treatment. This, aided by the advances in digital 3D technologies, has allowed meticulous treatment planning prior surgery. CONCLUSIONS: The functional and esthetic reconstructions described in these two case reports were made possible by coordinating multidisciplinary approaches involving dentists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons. Advances in medicine have improved understanding of the regenerative capacity of the oral region following oncologic treatment, facilitating meticulous advance planning, while advances in digital 3D technologies for planning make it possible to reduce the number of surgical sessions and the time taken for the patient to recover both the esthetics and function of the stomatognathic system. Key words:Oral rehabilitation, oral cancer, oral surgery.
RESUMEN
Background: Oral mucositis (OM) is a painful lesion that takes place in the mucosa of the oral cavity, usually itsetiology is associated with drug therapies in cancer patients. It is presented as well-defined ulcers whose painfulsymptomatology sometimes implies the suspension of oncological treatment or parenteral feeding, being there-fore an important adverse effect, marking the evolution of these types of therapies against cancer. The presentwork aim is to know the prevalence of oral mucositis in oral cancer immunotherapy compared to its prevalencein standard therapy.Material and Methods: A protocol was developed for a systematic review following PRISMA® guidelines and afocused question (PICO) was constructed. A comprehensive literature search was conducted on electronic data-bases including PubMed, the SCOPUS database, the Cochrane library and the Web of Science (WOS).Results: Six clinical trials were included that met the different inclusion criteria. In these articles, a discrepancybetween the prevalence of OM in patients treated with chemotherapy and patients treated with immunotherapyrelated to the immune checkpoint PD-1/PD-L1 (Nivolumab and Pembrolizumab) was observed. Conclusions: The prevalence of oral mucositis is lower in new immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies againstoral cancer than drugs used so far (chemotherapy drugs [methotrexate, cisplatin] as well as cetuximab). However,more studies should be carried out to confirm these data.(AU)

El tratamiento de recesiones gingivales utilizando procedimientos de cirugía plástica periodontal es habitualmente requerido en la odontología moderna. El objetivo final de estos procedimientos es la cobertura completa de la raíz y los resultados estéticos agradables. La literatura muestra que el colgajo de avance coronal + injerto de tejido conectivo podría ser considerado como el "gold standard" para el tratamiento de recesiones gingivales unitarias. Sin embargo, en la arcada inferior podemos encontrarnos con limitaciones anatómicas que nos impidan realizar las técnicas convencionales de cirugía mucogingival. En este trabajo se presenta y describe el tratamiento de recesiones gingivales unitarias y múltiples que afectan a la zona anteroinferior, las cuales se trataron mediante la técnica de Edlan-Mejchar modificada. La utilización de la técnica de Edlan-Mejchar modificada muestra resultados positivos para tratar recesiones gingivales en el sector anteroinferior
Treatment of gingival recessions using periodontal plastic surgery procedures is routinely required in modern dentistry. The ultimate goal of these procedures is complete root coverage and pleasing aesthetic results. The literature shows that the coronal advancement flap + connective tissue graft could be considered as the "gold standard" for the treatment of single gingival recessions. However, in the lower arch we can find anatomical limitations that prevent us from performing conventional mucogingival surgery techniques. In this work we present and describe the treatment of single and multiple gingival recessions that affect the lower anterior zone, which were treated using the modified Edlan-Mejchar technique. The use of the modified Edlan-Mejchar technique shows positive results to treat gingival recessions in the mandibular anterior area

Background: The aim of the present study was to describe and compare the oral and dental health status of two groups, one diagnosed with eating disorders (EDs), and another group without this pathology, assessing the fol-lowing oral manifestations: dental alterations, periodontal disorders, soft tissue disorders, non-stimulated salivary flow, and oral pH. Material and Methods: This comparative transversal epidemiological study included 179 participants, of whom 59 were diagnosed with EDs (Eating Disorder Group: EDG) and 120 had no antecedents of EDs (No Eating Disor-der Group: NEDG). All patients fulfilled the following inclusion criteria: women aged over 18 years, diagnosed with an ED by a specialist, patients who had undergone at least 1 year monitoring by the Clinical Nutrition Unit, and had not received any periodontal treatment during the previous 6 months. Both groups were homogeneous in terms of sex, age, education, and socioeconomic level. Oral exploration was performed, registering clinical variables, as well as sociodemographic and socioeconomic data, oral hygiene habits, and smoking. Statistical significance was established as p<0.05 (confidence level > 95%).Results: The dental erosion (DE) was the most significative feature of dental alterations. The degree of DE was significantly greater in the EDG (p<0.001). A significant association between soft tissue lesions and EDs was found (p<0.001) A notable difference in non-stimulated salivary flow was found between the groups (p<0.001) No significant differences between the groups were found for periodontal status, dental caries, or oral hygiene prac-tices. Conclusions: On the basis of the results obtained, it is necessary to carry out oral/dental examination as soon as an ED is diagnosed with regular check-ups thereafter
