Therefore, the aim of study was to assess the prevalence of AAA presence evaluate its characteristics using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). One hundred maxillary sinuses were evaluated from 70 CBCT scans. The antero-posterior dimension of each sinus was divided into four equal quarters. Artery presence was noted for each section (the main artery). Arterial diameter as well as distance to sinus floor and to alveolar ridge were measured, and the position of the main artery according to its location relative to the lateral sinus wall was determined. In cases where additional arteries were detected, diameter and position were also determined. Artery prevalence was at 87.0%. In 42% and 8% of the cases respectively, a second and third artery were visualized. No significant association was found between the prevalence of the arteries and age. However, the prevalence of secondary artery among men (56.4%) was significantly higher than in women (32.8%) ( p = 0.02). Moreover, the main artery diameter was significantly different between sections ( p = 0.014), as was its position. AAA was radiolographically detectable in the majority of studied sinuses. In some cases, two, even three arteries were visible. Arteries with a diameter ≥ 2mm were not frequent. However, arteries exceeding this diameter must be factored in when choosing surgical technique.","PeriodicalId":77634,"journal":{"name":"The International journal of oral implantology : implantologist","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78730105","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}

The bioactive dermal matrix has the capability to promote natural revascularization, cell repopulation, and undergo tissue remodeling as it contains elastin, collagen, bioactive proteins, and blood vessel channels. Recently, ADM materials have successfully been used as grafts in numerous surgical procedures to increase the size of the attached gingiva surrounding the teeth and implants, to fill in gingival recession defects to enhance root coverage, to manage soft tissue ridge deformities, and to repair oronasal fistulae.

Such complications have serious consequences, and the removal of fractured abutments or screws is difficult. There are various methods to remove fractured abutment screws in implants with screwed-in connections. However, no approach has been reported to retrieve solid abutments in implants with a locking-taper implant-abutment connection, which are rarely observed in clinical settings. This study presents the case of a 62-year-old male patient with a fractured abutment in an upper-right second premolar implant. Abutment fracture is a common mechanical complication after dental implantation. Parafunctional habits and occlusal overloading may generate excessive occlusal forces, which increase the risk of mechanical complications. This report presents a series of emergency procedures for removing a fractured solid abutment and fabricating a new prosthesis to restore the edentulous area. In this retrospective analysis, the author deeply considers the whole treatment, through which the deficiencies of the treatment are noted and corresponding future directions are discussed. This case report presents a convenient approach to remove a solid abutment in a sudden emergency, discusses the possible reasons for solid abutment fractures, designs a new rescue kit for easy retrieval of such abutments and summarizes a valid solution for removing fractured solid abutments.","PeriodicalId":77634,"journal":{"name":"The International journal of oral implantology : implantologist","volume":"45 13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82739388","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}

Von Mises stress values on six groups of each screw-type, including short and narrow screw, short abutment; short and wide screw, short abutment; long and wide screw, short abutment; short and narrow screw, long abutment; short and wide screw, long abutment; and long and wide screw, long abutment, were compared under a cantilever loading of 200 N that was applied on farther posterior to the position of the connection between the distal implant and the metal framework. Posterior prosthetic screws showed higher stress values than anterior prosthetic screws. The stress values in posterior prosthetic screws decreased as the length and diameter increased. In conclusion, the long and wide screw design offers advantages in stress distribution when compared to the short and narrow design.","PeriodicalId":77634,"journal":{"name":"The International journal of oral implantology : implantologist","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82459710","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}
