The simplified SPS suture engages only the CTG and stabilizes it to the tooth in the coronal-most position, inside the subperiosteal tunnel, independent of the overlying gingival tissue. The simplified SPS suture differs from the original SPS suture in that it engages the CTG first, and the needle and tail of the suture are knotted before the suture is introduced into the subperiosteal tunnel. This allows the needle to pass through the subperiosteal tunnel only once from the vestibular access to the intended gingi- val sulcus. When multiple teeth are treated, only one simplified SPS suture traverses the vestibular access at a time, as the CTG is incrementally advanced into the tunnel. This prevents suture entan- glement and improves the practical application of the technique.</p>","PeriodicalId":54948,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10203273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 96 implants were placed in 57 patients and loaded with a final restoration after at least 3 months of healing: 15 implants were immediately placed into fresh extraction sockets, and 81 were placed in healed ridges. Marginal bone loss around implants was determined radiographically at 12 to 24 months postloading. The effects on marginal bone loss of the site (mandible vs maxilla), location (anterior vs posterior), immediate vs delayed implant, smoking habit, sex, implant length and diameter, prosthesis type (screw-retained/cemented), and the machined collar position were evaluated. The implant survival rate was 98.96% at 1 year. The mean MBL decreased significantly (0.238 mm) between baseline and loading (P < .001; post hoc test) and decreased by 0.154 mm between loading and 1 year, but this was not significant (P = .085; post hoc tests). After 2 years, the mean MBL decreased significantly (0.263 mm) between baseline and loading (P < .001) and decreased by 0.111 mm between loading and 1 year and by 0.199 mm between loading and 2 years, but these were not significant (P > .05; post hoc tests). The mean bone loss after 1 and 2 years was not significantly associated with implant type or site, smoking habit, or type of implant surgery (P = .792).

This article presents the vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (VISTA) approach for periodontal regeneration in the anterior region. A subperiosteal tunnel prepared from a single vertical vestibular incision adjacent to the defect is used for debridement, application of enamel matrix derivative, defect grafting with corticocancellous tuberosity bone, and insertion of the connective tissue graft. Evaluation of six cases with up to 6 years of follow-up showed improvements in all clinical parameters.

The papillae were stable at all sites, with an average distance of 4.8 mm from the incisal edge to the papilla tip.

Fifteen patients underwent tooth extractions and ridge preservation procedures performed with FDBA and a collagen membrane. Bone biopsy samples were harvested after 3 months at the time of implant placement for histologic and histomorphometric analysis. Two areas of concern (ROI1 and ROI2) with different histologic features were identified within the biopsy samples; ROI1, ROI2, and commercially available particles were analyzed and compared. The following parameters were analyzed: newly formed bone, marrow space, residual graft particles, perimeter and area of FDBA particles, and BBC. The histomorphometric analysis showed 35.22% ± 10.79% newly formed bone, 52.55% ± 16.06% marrow spaces, and 12.41% ± 7.87% residual graft particles. Moreover, the histologic data from ROI1 and ROI2 showed that (1) the mean percentage of BBC was 64.61% ± 27.14%; (2) the newly formed bone was significantly higher in ROI1 than in ROI2; (3) the marrow space was significantly lower in ROI1 than in ROI2; and (4) the FDBA particles in ROI1 sites showed significantly lower area and perimeter when compared to commercially available FDBA particles.
