Chi-square test, its degrees of freedom was used for the analysis of variables.Results: The main reason for refusing immediate implant placement is a periapical lesion greater than 5 mm, reported by 91.7% of oral surgeons and 96.9% of periodontists. Good aesthetics and preservation of anatomical structures are identified as an advantage by 99.2% of oral surgeons and 92.3% of periodontists. In the aesthetic zone, for periodontists, the main criterion for choosing a method is the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the soft tissue of the extraction socket 96.9%, and for oral surgeons - the morphology of the bone walls of the socket 87.6%. Only 43.1% of periodontists and 33.9% of oral surgeons are familiar with and use extraction socket morphology assessment classifications for immediate dental implant placement.Conclusions: Taking into account study's results, it is recommended to adjust the teaching programs at Universities and to increase the knowledge of specialists performing dental implantation procedures, by carrying out continuous educational programs.","PeriodicalId":53254,"journal":{"name":"eJournal of Oral Maxillofacial Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11318660/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141977209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review focused on patients 18 years and older who undergone MSFA before the dental implant placement. It systematically examined five studies, encompassing randomized controlled trials, and reported on 112 MSFA procedures conducted in 84 patients.Results: The meta-analysis reveals a marginal significance in new bone formation with PRF, suggesting a trend towards beneficial outcomes that were not statistically significant. No significant impact on bone height was observed. However, a notable improvement in implant stability quotient (ISQ) was recorded, indicating enhanced implant stability with PRF. The Schneiderian membrane thickness did not show significant changes post-treatment with PRF.Conclusions: While platelet-rich fibrin shows promise in enhancing implant stability, its effects on new bone formation and Schneiderian membrane thickness are inconclusive, highlighting the need for further research. Platelet-rich fibrin did not significantly affect bone height. The findings support platelet-rich fibrin's potential as a beneficial adjunct in maxillary sinus floor augmentation, particularly for implant stability.","PeriodicalId":53254,"journal":{"name":"eJournal of Oral Maxillofacial Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11318657/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141977171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nuclear and/or cytoplasmic staining was evaluated as \"positive\". Cell staining rate (%) and cell staining intensity were determined, and a staining intensity distribution (SID) score was calculated for each sample. Cases were considered \"negative\" if they showed no staining for CAPRIN-1 antibodies, thus were given a SID score of zero.

Any clinical study on patients with an autoimmune disease in whom implant therapy was performed was eligible. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. For each autoimmune disease group, data synthesis was divided into three groups: 1) overall results of the autoimmune disease, 2) overall results of corresponding control groups and 3) overall results of the autoimmune disease with a concomitant autoimmune disease (a subgroup of group 1). Descriptive statistics were used.Results: Of 4,865 identified articles, 67 could be included and mainly comprising case reports and retrospective studies with an overall low quality. Implant survival rate was 50 to 100% on patient and implant level after a weighted mean follow-up of 17.7 to 68.1 months. Implant success was sporadically reported. Data on immunosuppressive medication were too heterogeneously reported to allow detailed analysis.Conclusions: Overall, a high implant survival rate was reported in patients with autoimmune diseases. However, the identified studies were characterized by a low quality.
