The applications of regenerative medicine in sinus lift procedures: A systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Findings in regenerative medicine applied to the sinus lift procedures. PURPOSE: Evaluate the effectiveness of regenerative medicine in sinus lift. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An extensive search for manuscripts were performed by using different combinations of keywords and MeSH terms (Pub-med; Embase; Scopus; Web of Science Core Collection; Medline; Current Contents Connect; Derwent Innovations Index; Scielo Citation Index; Cochrane library). The full text selected articles are written in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, German, or French, and published until 28 of November 2016. Inclusion criteria were: implant osteointegration, radiographic, histologic, and/or histomorphometric analysis, clinical studies in humans using of regenerative medicine. This systematic review was performed by selecting only randomized controlled clinical trials and controlled clinical trials. RESULTS: Eighteen published studies (11 CT and 7 RCT) were considered eligible for inclusion in the present systematic review. These studies demonstrated considerable variation of biomaterial and cell technics used, study design, sinus lift technic, outcomes, follow-up, and results. CONCLUSION: Only few studies have demonstrated potential of regenerative medicine in sinus lift; further randomized clinical trials are needed to achieve more accurate results.

The 1st Baltic Osseointegration Academy and Lithuanian University of Health Sciences Consensus Conference 2016. Summary and Consensus Statements: Group III - Peri-Implantitis Treatment.

INTRODUCTION: The task of Group 3 was to review and update the existing data concerning non-surgical, surgical non-regenerative and surgical regenerative treatment of peri-implantitis. Special interest was paid to the preventive and supporting therapy in case of peri-implantitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The main areas of interest were as follows: effect of smoking and history of periodontitis, prosthetic treatment mistakes, excess cement, overloading, general diseases influence on peri-implantitis development. The systematic review and/or meta-analysis were registered in PROSPERO, an international prospective register of systematic reviews: http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/. The literature in the corresponding areas of interest was searched and reported using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) Statement: http://www.prisma-statement.org/. The method of preparation of systematic reviews of the literature based on comprehensive search strategies was discussed and standardized. The summary of the materials and methods employed by the authors in preparing the systematic review and/or meta-analysis is presented in Preface chapter. RESULTS: The results and conclusions of the review process are presented in the respective papers. The group's general commentaries, consensus statements, clinical recommendations and implications for research are presented in this article.

Taxa de sobrevivência dos implantes dentários em pacientes com história de doença periodontal / Survival rate of dental implants in patients with a history of periodontal disease

Objetivo: O objetivo principal desta revisão bibliográfica foi determinar quais as taxas de sobrevivência dos implantes dentários em pacientes com história de doença periodontal. Materiais e Métodos: A pesquisa foi realizada na base de dados Pubmed e Cochrane Library, utilizando-se um total de 17 artigos, datados dos anos 1998 a 2011 com as palavras chaves: Dental Implants"[MeSH] AND "Periodontal Diseases" [MeSH] AND "Survival Rate" [MeSH]; "periodontal disease AND oral implants survival"; "implant survival AND periodontal patients"; "short implants AND periodontal patients"; "narrow implants AND periodontal patient". Conclusão: A colocação de implantes dentários em pacientes periodontais parece ser uma opção viável e segura. O tratamento da doença periodontal deverá ser anterior à colocação do implante e um controle posterior desse implante deverá ser mantido. Mais estudos são necessários, com avaliações de pelo menos 10 anos, para se definir as reais taxas de sobrevivências e de sucesso dos implantes em pacientes com história de doença periodontal.(AU)

Aim: The main aim of this literature review was to determine the survival rates of dental implants in patients with a history of periodontal disease. Materials and Methods: The present research was conducted based on data from the Pubmed database and the Cochrane Library, using a total of 17 articles published from 1998 to 2011 and searching for the keywords "Dental Implants" [Mesh] AND "Periodontal Diseases" [Mesh] AND "Survival Rate" [Mesh]; "periodontal disease and oral implants survival "; "implant survival in periodontal patients"; "short implants and periodontal patients"; "narrow implants and periodontal patient". Conclusion: Dental implants in periodontal patients appears to be a viable and safe procedure. The treatment of the disease should be performed prior to implant placement, and a subsequent control of the implant should be maintained. More studies with follow-up periods of no less than 10 years are needed to determine the true survival and success rates of dental implants in patients with a history of periodontal disease.(AU)
