RESUMEN
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of customized allogeneic bone block (CABB) for ridge augmentation compared with autogenous bone block. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients (N = 24) in need of ridge augmentation were randomly assigned to one of two treatment modalities: CABBs (CABB group) and autogenous bone blocks (ABB group). The primary outcome of the present study was the horizontal bone gain at 1 mm below the alveolar ridge crest (HBG1 ). Secondary outcomes were the bone gain at other levels, bone resorption rate, ridge width, operative time, postoperative pain score, and histological results. The data obtained from the current study were analysed using a generalized linear mixed effects model, two-sample t-test, or a Mann-Whitney U-test. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients completed a 6-month follow-up. One patient in the CABB group exhibited block exposure. The CABB group had significantly more horizontal bone gain (HBG1 ) and less horizontal bone resorption (HBRR1 ) at 1 mm below the alveolar ridge crest when compared with those in the ABB group (HBG1 : CABB group [4.29 ± 1.48 mm] and ABB group [1.12 ± 3.25 mm]; HBRR0 : CABB group [42.15 ± 14.03%] and ABB group [92.52 ± 55.78%], p < .05). In addition, a longer operative time was reported in the ABB group compared with the CABB group (p < .05). The histological observation indicated a new bone formation in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of CABBs resulted in more horizontal bone gain and less horizontal bone resorption at 1 mm below the alveolar ridge crest at 6 months post-surgery compared with ABBs while reducing the operative time in the treatment of ridge augmentation.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide and there are few crucial regulators and druggable targets for early diagnosis. Therefore, the identification of biomarkers for the early diagnosis and druggable targets of OSCC is imminent. In this study, we integrated gene set enrichment analysis, differential gene expression analysis based on the negative binomial distribution, weighted correlation network analysis, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes into analyzing the OSCC cohort downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas, and found that cell cycle and related biologic processes are significantly enriched. Then, we constructed the core gene network of OSCC, which showed the connection of encode human Cyclin-A2 protein, encode RAD51-associated protein 1, encode human centromere-associated protein E (CENPE), encode humans centromere protein I (CENPI) and encode polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) to several cell cycle-related genes. Survival analysis further showed that low expression of these genes was associated with a better prognosis. Furthermore, we utilized a high-throughput virtual screening to find new CENPE and PLK1 inhibitors, and one of the CENPE inhibitor DB04517 suppressed the proliferation of OSCC cells by cell cycle arrest of cell cycle. Taken together, these candidate regulators could serve as the candidate diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for OSCC, and specific suppression of these genes may be a potential approach to prevent and treat OSCC with the candidate inhibitors.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Immediate implant-supported restorations have become a common treatment strategy in the esthetic zone; however, improvements are necessary in the techniques used to fabricate interim prostheses. PURPOSE: This clinical study evaluated an alternative method for the immediate restoration of anterior teeth by using a fully guided template. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-five participants were enrolled, and 30 implants were inserted by using fully guided templates. Eleven participants and 14 implant sites were treated with immediate implant placement. Fourteen participants and 16 implant sites were treated with delayed implant placement. The same method was used for immediate restoration in all the participants. A postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan was compared with the preoperative planning to measure the deviation between the placed and the planned implants. The independent t test was used for the comparison of immediate and delayed implant placement (α=.05). Any complications occurring in the following 3 months were also recorded. RESULTS: None of the interim prostheses needed significant adjustments and were successfully installed on implants after the surgery. The overall mean deviations in 3D coronal, buccolingual coronal, mesiodistal coronal, 3D apical, buccolingual apical, mesiodistal apical, depth, and angle were 0.6 ±0.3 mm, 0.4 ±0.2 mm, 0.2 ±0.1 mm, 1.0 ±0.4 mm, 0.7 ±0.4 mm, 0.3 ±0.2 mm, 0.4 ±0.3 mm, and 1.9 ±1.1 degrees, respectively. The linear and angular deviations exhibited no significant differences (P>.05) between immediate and delayed implant placement. No complications developed in the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: In the anterior esthetic zone, this alternative method appears to be suitable for immediate restoration. The accuracy of fully guided surgery was clinically acceptable for the prefabricated interim prostheses and helped reduce postoperative chairside time.

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, especially those with end stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis (HD), exhibit high prevalence of periodontitis. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the periodontal status of HD patients and its relationship with salivary microbiome. METHODS: One hundred eight HD patients and one hundred healthy control individuals were recruited. They were subjected to periodontal examination followed by saliva samples collection for 16S rRNA gene sequencing. RESULTS: The HD patients were with worse periodontal health status, and exhibited higher salivary microbial diversity and lower richness. The periodontal pathogens were significantly enriched in the HD patients. The inferred functional analyze showed microbes enriched in the HD patients were mainly related to metabolism. Despite the periodontal status and overall structure of the microbiome were not significantly altered as the HD duration prolonged, the abundance of Lachnospiraceae [G-2] sp. |HMT_096| is positively correlated with the duration of HD and the community periodontal index (CPI). Five OTUs (operational taxonomic units) belonging to the phyla Firmicutes were enriched as the duration prolonged, and four OTUs originated from the phyla Proteobacteria were negatively related with the CPI index. ESRD patients undergoing HD exhibited microbiota structural, compositional and functional differences compared with the healthy controls. And the species changed as the duration of hemodialysis prolonged. CONCLUSIONS: End stage renal disease changes salivary microbiome and is a risk factor for oral dysbiosis.

The International Associations for Dental Research (IADR) annual meeting is one of the most important dental meetings throughout the world, and researches about paediatric dentistry presented in this platform are often used to guide clinical work. To evaluate the publication outcomes of oral and poster paediatric proceedings, which were accepted by the International Associations for Dental Research (IADR), annual meetings from 2010 to 2016 and to analyse the possible factors influencing an abstract's progression to publication. Oral and poster abstracts were retrieved from the official website of IADR (2010-2016). Searching for subsequent publications was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar (up to March 2019). Two authors independently selected studies, collected, and analysed data. A total of 1396 abstracts were identified, including 275 oral presentations and 1121 poster presentations. Finally, 606 were published in peer-reviewed journals, with a publication rate of 43.41%. Abstracts were published earlier if it is from Europe, well funded, presented orally, or with large sample size. The high publication rate of the IADR proceedings supported the impact of IADR annual meetings on paediatric dentistry in the last 10 years.

BACKGROUND: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), a type of light therapy that uses the concept of photobiomodulation, is developed to promote bone healing. Clinical studies have been conducted to assess the influence of PBMT on dental implant stability and success rate. This is the first systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effect of PBMT and methodological quality of these studies on implants in human clinical trials. METHODS: An electronic search was performed in Pubmed, Embase, and the Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials (CENTRAL). RESULTS: Initially, 675 articles were identified, among which only 8 met the inclusion criteria. Four of the 8 studies presented a low risk of bias, whereas the other 4 were of moderate risk. Our review focused on implant success rates and implant stability measured at days 0 and 10, and at 3, 4, 6, and 12 weeks. No significant differences were observed between the PBMT group and the control group regarding implant stability or success rate. CONCLUSIONS: The existing clinical studies did not provide sufficient evidence to observe positive effects of PBMT on implants in patients. An increased number of high-quality clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are required to verify the data and to draw convincing conclusions.

Immunosuppressive agents have been recognized as a factor affecting bone metabolism. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of FK-506 administration on the healing of bone around titanium implants. Thirty-two male mice were randomly allocated to two groups: the FK-506 group (n = 16 mice), which received subcutaneous administration of FK-506 (1 mg kg-1 d-1 ); and the control group (n = 16 mice), which received saline solution by the same route of administration. After 2 wk, one titanium implant with sandblasted/acid-etched surface was placed in the femur. The therapy continued until the mice were killed 2 and 4 wk after surgery. The femurs with implants were evaluated by biomechanical testing and histologic analysis. The bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone volume (BV/TV) within a 100-µm-wide circumferential zone lateral to the implant surface were histomorphometrically analyzed. Compared with the control group, the FK-506 group showed significantly lower BIC and BV/TV at both 2 and 4 wk. Biomechanical tests showed that FK-506 significantly impaired the strength of bone-implant integration at both 2 and 4 wk postoperatively. Our data indicate that immunosuppressive therapy with FK-506 negatively affects the fixation of titanium implants.

AIM: To evaluate the microenvironment changes in the sockets substituted with bovine-derived xenografts during the early healing period. MATERIALS AND METHODS: After extraction of the right maxillary incisor of Sprague Dawley rats, 48 rats were randomly divided into 2 groups. The extraction sockets of the test group were filled with Bio-Oss, whereas the control group was allowed to heal without intervention. The bone quality of the extraction sockets was observed through micro-CT and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Micro-CT scanning showed that the bone mineral density in the test group was significantly higher than that in the control group during the early healing period, whereas immunohistochemistry showed that the bone formation-related factors were significantly different between the test and control groups. CONCLUSIONS: The bovine-derived xenografts may interfere with the healing process of the extraction socket in the early healing stage. Bone formation of the extraction socket was delayed after grafting with bone substitute.

BACKGROUND: The study aims to assess the residual alveolar bone volume in Chinese chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two hundred and eight HD patients and healthy controls were enrolled to undergo CBCT examination. To evaluate residual alveolar bone volume, bone height was measured from the alveolar crest (AC) to the maxillary sinus floor or the mandibular nerve canal, whereas bone width was measured at a depth of 1.0, 3.0, and 6.0 mm apical to the AC. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in demographics and the extent of tooth loss between HD patients and control group. Both groups showed abundant residual bone volume. However, the heights of residual alveolar bone at the upper premolars and first molar in HD patients were significantly lower than those of the control group (p < 0.05). No significant difference was observed for alveolar bone at the lower premolars and molars. The bone width showed statistical differences for HD patients' upper second molars, lower first premolars, and second molars (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: While the residual bone was sufficient for implant placement, HD patients exhibited with significantly lower residual bone height at the sites of the upper premolars and first molar and varied residual bone width depending on the location. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Owing to these changes, special cautions need to be taken for patients undergoing HD or with chronically impaired renal functions during implant treatment planning.

An implant was malpositioned and osseointegrated at the maxillary sinus floor with no complications. However, unexpected bone formation over the implant made the implant nonfunctional. Because the patient rejected the removal of the implant, it was left in place while another short implant was placed into the newly formed bone in approximately the same position as the old implant to restore the posterior maxillary tooth. Within 6 months, the new implant over the old asymptomatic implant was functional. Radiographs revealed osseointegration and stable periimplant marginal bone level with no signs of infection or inflammation.

OBJECTIVE: To formulate hydroxyapatite (HA)/polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) composites with improved cytocompatibility for provisional restoration. METHODS: Nanocomposites with 20 wt%, 30 wt%, 40 wt%, and 50 wt% HA/PMMA (H/P) were developed and examined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Human gingival fibroblasts were cultured on those HA/PMMA discs and investigated by fluorescent staining on 24 h and MTT assay at 1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 7 d. RESULTS: Chemical integration of HA/PMMA interface was confirmed by XPS. Typical fusiform cells with adhesion spots were detected on 40 wt% and 50 wt% H/P discs. MTT results showed insignificant differences in cell growth between 40 wt% H/P and pure titanium (Ti, P > 0.05), while the other H/P discs showed significantly lower cell growth than pure Ti (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: 40 wt% H/P might be a promising candidate for provisional dental implant restoration and for esthetic gingival contour.

Skin injuries and drug-resistant bacterial infections pose serious challenges to human health. It is essential to establish a novel multifunctional platform with good anti-infection and wound-healing abilities. In this study, a new MXene-doped composite microneedle (MN) patch with excellent mechanical strength and photothermal antibacterial and ROS removal properties has been developed for infected wound healing. When the MN tips carrying the MXene nanosheets are inserted into the cuticle of the skin, they will quickly dissolve and subsequently release the nanomaterials into the subcutaneous infection area. Under 808 nm NIR irradiation, the MXene, as a "nano-thermal knife", sterilizes and inhibits bacterial growth through synergistic effects of sharp edges and photothermal antibacterial activity. Furthermore, ROS caused by injury and infection can be cleared by MXene-doped MNs to avoid excessive inflammatory responses. Based on the synergistic antibacterial and antioxidant strategy, the MXene-doped MNs have demonstrated excellent wound-healing properties in an MRSA-infected wound model, such as promoting re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis and inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors. Therefore, the multifunctional MXene-doped MN patches provide an excellent alternative for clinical drug-resistant bacteria-infected wound management.

ABSTARCT: Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is a subtype of maxillary sinusitis (MS). It is actually inflammation of the maxillary sinus that secondary to adjacent infectious maxillary dental lesion. Due to the lack of unique clinical features, OMS is difficult to distinguish from other types of rhinosinusitis. Besides, the characteristic infectious pathogeny of OMS makes it is resistant to conventional therapies of rhinosinusitis. Its current diagnosis and treatment are thus facing great difficulties. The multi-disciplinary cooperation between otolaryngologists and dentists is absolutely urgent to settle these questions and to acquire standardized diagnostic and treatment regimen for OMS. However, this disease has actually received little attention and has been underrepresented by relatively low publication volume and quality. Based on systematically reviewed literature and practical experiences of expert members, our consensus focuses on characteristics, symptoms, classification and diagnosis of OMS, and further put forward multi-disciplinary treatment decisions for OMS, as well as the common treatment complications and relative managements. This consensus aims to increase attention to OMS, and optimize the clinical diagnosis and decision-making of OMS, which finally provides evidence-based options for OMS clinical management.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to establish the culture method of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) from alveolar bone marrow. METHODS: Alveolar bone marrow complex samples were obtained from 35 patients, 22 to 65 years of age, during the course of dental implant treatment by low-speed method. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were seeded and maintained in culture with 10% fetal bovine serum. The form of the cultured cells was observed under inverted microscope, and the cell proliferation capacity was detected. Cell cycle and the antigen expression of P3 BMSCs were measured with flow cytometry. RESULTS: From a small volume (about 0.1-0.2 mL) of bone marrow complex, alveolar BMSCs expanded at a success ratio of 29 (83%) of 35. There is dysmorphism in cultured cells, which mainly were long spindle, polygon, and triangle. Flow cytometry instrument test showed that the cells in G0/G1 phase were an average of 79.29% ± 1.70% and in S phase were an average of 11.09% ± 0.87%. For antibody expression rate: CD29 is 88.00% ± 1.56%, CD44 is 88.15% ± 1.64%, CD34 is 0.42% ± 0.10%, CD45 is 0.45% ± 0.12%, and CD11b is 0.45% ± 0.14%. CONCLUSION: The cells of the marrow complex obtained by low-speed method in implant site preparation cultured in vitro were identified as BMSCs through the morphological observation and the flow cytometry. It is a kind of feasible and simple culture method of human primary BMSCs.

Orthopedic implants provide an avascular surface for microbial attachment and biofilm formation, impeding the entry of immune cells and the diffusion of antibiotics. The above is an important cause of dental and orthopedic implant-associated infection (IAI). For the prevention and treatment of IAI, the drawbacks of antibiotic resistance and surgical treatment are increasingly apparent. Due to their outstanding biological properties such as biocompatibility, immunomodulatory effects, and antibacterial properties, graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have been applied to bone tissue engineering to deal with IAI, and in particular have great potential application in drug/gene carriers, multi-functional platforms, and coating forms. Here we review the latest research progress and achievements in GBNs for the prevention and treatment of IAI, mainly including their biomedical applications for antibacterial and immunomodulation effects, and for inducing osteogenesis. Furthermore, the biosafety of graphene family materials in bone tissue regeneration and the feasibility of clinical application are critically analyzed and discussed.

Rapid and effective bone defect repair remains a challenging issue for clinical treatment. Applying biomaterials with endogenous surface potential has been widely studied to enhance bone regeneration, but how to regulate the electric potential and surface morphology of the implanted materials precisely to achieve an optimal bioelectric microenvironment is still a major challenge. The aim of this study is to develop electroactive biomaterials that better mimic the extracellular microenvironment for bone regeneration. Hence, MXene/polyvinylidene fluoride (MXene/PVDF) ferroelectric nanocomposite membranes were prepared by electrospinning. Physicochemical characterization demonstrated that Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets were wrapped in PVDF shell layer and the surface morphology and potential were modulated by altering the content of MXene, where uniform distribution of fibers and enhanced electric potential can be obtained and precisely assembled into a natural extracellular matrix (ECM) in bone tissue. Consequently, the MXene/PVDF membranes facilitated cell adhesion, stretching, and growth, showing good biocompatibility; meanwhile, their intrinsic electric potential promoted the recruitment of osteogenic cells and accelerated the differentiation of osteoblast. Furthermore, 1 wt % MXene/PVDF membrane with a suitable surface potential and better topographical structure for bone regeneration qualitatively and quantitatively promoted bone tissue formation in a rat calvarial bone defect after 4 and 8 weeks of healing. The fabricated MXene/PVDF ferroelectric nanocomposite membranes show a biomimetic microenvironment with a sustainable electric potential and optimal 3D topographical structure, providing an innovative and well-suited strategy for application in bone regeneration.

Background: Two-dimensional(2D)MXenes have continued to receive increasing interest from researchers due to their graphene-like properties, in addition to their versatile properties for applications in electronic devices, power generation, sensors, drug delivery, and biomedicine. However, their construction and biological properties as titanium coatings to prevent peri-implantitis are still unclear. Materials and methods: In this work, few-layer Ti3C2Tx MXene coatings with different thicknesses at varied depositing voltages (30, 40, and 50 V) were constructed by anodic electrophoretic deposition without adding any electrolytic ions. In vitro cytocompatibility assay was performed on preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1) cell lines after the characterization of the coating. Meanwhile, the antibacterial activity against bacteria which are closely related to peri-implantitis including Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and its drug-resistant strain MRSA was further investigated. Results: MXene-coated titanium models with different thicknesses were successfully assembled by analyzing the results of characterization. The compounding of Ti3C2Tx could significantly improve the initial adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Moreover, the coating can effectively inhibit the adhesion and cell activity of S. aureus and MRSA, and MRSA expressed greater restricting behavior than S. aureus. The ability to promote antibacterial activity is proportional to the content of Ti3C2Tx. Its antioxidant capacity to reduce ROS in the culture environment and bacterial cells was first revealed. Conclusion: In summary, this work shows a new avenue for MXene-based nano-biomaterials under the clinical problem of multiple antibiotic resistance.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the accuracy of fully guided between dynamic and static computer-assisted implant surgery (CAIS) systems for immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone. METHODS: A total of 40 qualified patients requiring immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone were randomly and equally assigned to either static CAIS group (n = 20) or dynamic CAIS groups (n = 20). Global deviations at entry, apex, and angular deviation between placed and planned implant position were measured and compared as primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes were the deviation of implant placement at mesial-distal, labial-palatal, and coronal-apical directions. RESULTS: For the immediate implant placement, the mean global entry deviations in static and dynamic CAIS groups were 0.99 ± 0.63 mm and 1.06 ± 0.55 mm (p = 0.659), while the mean global apex deviations were 1.50 ± 0.75 mm and 1.18 ± 0.53 mm (p = 0.231), respectively. The angular deviation in the static and dynamic CAIS group was 3.07 ± 2.18 degrees and 3.23 ± 1.67 degrees (p = 0.547). No significant differences were observed for the accuracy parameters of immediate implant placement between static and dynamic CAIS systems, except the deviation of the implant at entry in the labial-palatal direction in the dynamic CAIS group was significantly more labial than of the static CAIS (p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that clinically acceptable accuracy of immediate implant placement could be achieved using static and dynamic CAIS systems.

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Graft bone maturation and remodeling in the maxillary sinus require adequate angiogenesis and osteoprogenitor cells migration from the surrounding bony walls and Schneiderian membrane. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of anatomical factors related to maxillary sinus on the outcomes of transcrestal sinus floor elevation using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-five patients (63 elevated sites) were included in this study. CBCT were obtained preoperatively, immediately and 6 months after surgery. The anatomical features of residual bone height, maxillary sinus width, maxillary sinus angle and Schneiderian membrane thickness were measured on preoperative CBCT. Descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were conducted to evaluate the influence of anatomical factors on outcome parameters, including sinus lift height, graft bone resorption and marginal bone loss. RESULTS: The results showed that there was a positive correlation between sinus width and graft bone resorption. A significantly positive correlation between sinus angle and graft bone resorption was also found. CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that the anatomical factors of maxillary sinus (sinus width and sinus angle) have influence on the linear change of bone grafts after transcrestal sinus floor elevation.
RESUMEN
This article describes a case with a full digital procedure to prefabricate an implant-supported interim restoration based on the preoperative digital implant planning. A fully guided surgical template is designed and printed, and then an interim restoration is fabricated based on the planned implant position through a dental computer-aided design (CAD) software. Once the implant was placed at the predetermined position through the fully guided surgical guide, the prefabricated interim restoration could be inserted immediately after the surgery, which can guide the healing of the soft tissue and enhance the esthetic outcomes. This novel technique eliminates the conventional impression making to insert an implant-supported interim restoration immediately after the implant placement surgery, which can guide the healing of the soft tissue, minimize the chairside time and optimize the clinical workflow.
