Calvo-Guirado","doi":"10.4103/ijds.ijds_21_21","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4103/ijds.ijds_21_21","url":null,"abstract":"Provisional implants (PIs) can offer a total contribution to a patient's esthetic comfort and chew during the integration of standard implants. Although temporary implants are not intended for osseointegration and have to withdraw at there or 4 months, most of them begin to move during this process, and most of them had extracted before standard implants integration. Resin fixed prosthesis attached to temporary implant abutments gives the patient stability, gives esthetics, and gives protection to traditional implants, compared to removable prostheses, which more quickly leads to the loosening and loss of these temporary implants. Temporary implants could be used with cemented or screwed resin prosthesis or with titanium framework, depending on the patient's bite, bruxism, or clenching. All PIs are made in one piece, titanium grade 5, with V threads and a Bioetched surface (rough surface) to increase the insertion torque and bone to implant contact in soft and hard bone. Temporary upper fixed denture, relined with resin, is the easiest solution for protecting and reducing the risk of failure of some of the standard implants. The possible solution in such cases is the use of temporary implants as support for the fixed structure, acting as protection of traditional implants and bone grafts. Our clinical case was made with six temporary implants TR® 2.7 mm diameter by 13 mm length, grinding extracted teeth using smart dentin grinder, and fixed temporary denture for 3 months. At 4 months, a complete zirconium denture was screwed in standard implants.","PeriodicalId":56210,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"13 1","pages":"201 - 204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41597665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CRP causes activation of the classical complement pathway by binding to various autologous and extrinsic ligands exposed on membranes of injured, necrotic, or cells undergoing apoptosis. There is evolving evidence which strongly suggests that CRP is an inflammatory marker and is significantly elevated in patients diagnosed with tumors such as hepatocellular, pulmonary, and breast carcinomas. In addition, serum CRP level has been shown to be associated with size of tumor (T), clinic-pathological characteristics, and metastasis to lymph nodes. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare serum CRP levels in potentially malignant disorders and oral malignancies. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional prospective study was designed to study serum CRP levels in patients with oral potentially malignant disorders (leukoplakia and oral submucous fibrosis), patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma, and normal controls. Study participants were divided into four groups: (1) Group I comprising 40 patients with leukoplakia, (2) Group II comprising 40 patients with oral submucous fibrosis, (3) Group III comprising 40 patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma, and (4) Group IV comprising 40 controls. Five milliliters of venous blood was collected after venipuncture from the antecubital vein followed by centrifugation, and serum was separated. This separated serum was analyzed for CRP levels using SPINREACT kit and semi-automated biochemical analyzer (Kyoto, Japan). All obtained data were entered into Microsoft Excel Worksheet 2007, and tabulations were performed using SPSS 16 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) software (IBM Corporation, Chicago, IL, USA). P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Mean ± standard deviation values derived were 5.5 ± 4.8 mg/dl (Group I), 6.1 ± 4.9 mg/dl (Group II), 10.5 ± 2.4 mg/dl (Group III), and 2.1 ± 1.6 mg/dl (Group IV), respectively. On applying one-way analysis of variance for comparison of three groups, P < 0.003 was obtained. The results implied that an extremely significant statistical correlation existed between all studied groups when serum CRP levels were compared. Conclusion: Serum CRP levels are prognostic markers in oral potentially malignant disorders and oral malignancies.","PeriodicalId":56210,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"13 1","pages":"164 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44452948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fractures of the maxillofacial region often lead to considerable morbidity of esthetics and function. Aim: This study aims to establish the incidence and pattern of facial bone fractures as well as to present their etiology, frequency, and distribution among the cases reporting in the major trauma center of eastern Uttar Pradesh. Materials and Methods: The total number of patients included in this study was 575. The data were obtained from previous documented records. Proportions and relations of data are compared with the help of the Chi-square test. P < 0.05 suggests results are significant. Results: Of 575 patients, 376 patients had isolated fractures and 199 patients had mixed fractures. The mandible is the most commonly affected bone. The most commonly involved anatomical site was parasymphysis of the mandible (25.6% [202/790]), followed by zygomatic complex 14.9% (118/790). The mean age of patients was 28.92 years with a male predilection. The mean age for males and females was 29.44 years and 24.29 years, respectively. The most common age group involved in maxillofacial injury was 21–30. The correlation of anatomical sites of maxillofacial fractures according to age group was inferred to be statistically insignificant as P > 0.05. The most common mode of injury was inferred to be road traffic accidents (85.7% [493/575]). The correlation between anatomical site and mode of injuries was found to be statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: This study concludes that road traffic accident is the most common mode of injury and the most common bone involved is the mandible, with parasymphysis being the most affected anatomical site. The current study also demonstrates a significant correlation between the anatomical site of injury and the mode of injury.","PeriodicalId":56210,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"13 1","pages":"182 - 186"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44717242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
