However, complications in the interforaminal region may occur due to the presence of the mandibular incisive nerve. This scoping review aims to describe the mandibular incisive nerve anatomy related to the potential interference in implant therapy. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in the following databases: MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science, and Scopus. This scoping review was structured according to the Joanna Briggs Institute method. Thirteen studies were included in the review. All of the studies were observational cohort anatomical studies, carried out mainly by CBCT and on cadavers. A total of 1,471 patients/cadavers were studied. The mandibular incisive nerve was present in 87% to 100% of cases, with an average length of 9.97 mm and an average diameter of 1.97 mm. The mandibular incisive nerve may be damaged during drilling and implant placement, especially when using implant lengths > 12 mm. Damage to the mandibular incisive nerve due to implant placement could be present, but it is necessary to conduct more studies focusing on assessing mandibular incisive nerve damage to understand the clinical relevance of this nerve and its associated morbidities, such as neurosensorial alterations. Due to the different anatomical characteristics of this nerve, CBCT analysis is recommended for implant therapy in the anterior mandible to prevent the described complications.</p>","PeriodicalId":94231,"journal":{"name":"The International journal of periodontics & restorative dentistry","volume":"0 0","pages":"709-719"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139418884","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 restoration facial emergence angle and the implant depth were determined using images at the midfacial cross section. Simple logistic and linear regression models were used to analyze the interrelation between the emergence angle, depth, and retention methods. The average facial emergence angle for all restorations in this study was 34.4 degrees. A significant difference in emergence angle was found between screw-retained and cement-retained groups, with averages of 37.3 degrees and 27.9 degrees, respectively. There was no difference in the mean depth between the two groups. A strong negative linear relationship between depth and emergence angle was seen for the screw-retained group. Overall, implant positioning in the anterior maxilla has a significant influence on emergence angle. Facial emergence angle is significantly greater for implants in a screw-retained position.

There is a specific lack of evidence for alveolar ridge reconstruction at molar and premolar sites with severe bone resorption. This randomized controlled trial used 3D and linear analyses to evaluate volumetric changes of the alveolar bone following alveolar ridge reconstruction (ARR) at molar and premolar sites with severe bone resorption as compared to unassisted socket healing before implant placement. A total of 31 patients (15 men, 16 women) with > 50% hard tissue loss in one or more socket walls were recruited and randomized into either a test group (postextraction ARR using deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen [DBBM-C] and platelet-rich fibrin [PRF] with a resorbable collagen membrane) or a control group (natural healing after extraction). The clinical, linear, and volumetric implant-related and patient-reported outcomes were analyzed after 4 months of healing. Linear bone assessments revealed significantly greater ridge width gains in the test group (25% in the mesial, midfacial, and distal aspects) and less reduction of vertical bone ridge than in the control group (P < .05). Further, volumetric bone remodeling was significantly higher in the test group (35.1% ± 34.9% for ARR, 14.2% ± 12.8% for control; P < .05). Patient-reported discomfort and keratinized mucosal changes were comparable between groups. ARR with a combination of DBBM-C, PRF, and a resorbable membrane at posterior sites with a severe socket wall deficiency (> 50% bone loss) is a safe and more capable therapeutic method when compared to natural healing and unassisted sockets.

All cases were treated with apicoectomy in conjunction with a connective tissue graft (CTG), and the first steps of each case were as follows: endodontic therapy with root-end resection and retrograde filling, then regenerative surgical therapy. However, slightly different regenerative treatment methods were used during the operation according to the different patient conditions. In Case 1, gingival fenestration in the mandibular left first premolar was treated using a xenograft and CTG. In Case 2, gingival fenestration in the maxillary left lateral incisor was treated using advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) and CTG. In Case 3, gingival fenestration in the mandibular left second premolar was treated using CTG. Endodontic treatment was combined with periodontal surgery to achieve predictable results. After 13 to 25 months of follow-up, all cases showed well-healed gingival fenestrations and no discomfort.

Numerous techniques have been explored to reconstruct and regenerate interdental papillae, but consistent success remains challenging. This article presents a novel surgical approach that applies the principles of the Connective Tissue Graft (CTG) wall technique to enhance papilla volume when interdental clinical attachment loss is present in the aesthetic zone. The case of a 35-year-old woman with an RT3 recession defect associated with loss of interdental hard and soft tissues is discussed. The patient underwent a procedure involving palatal incisions, application of amelogenins, and a trapezoidal shape CTG fixed at the base of the papilla under a coronally advanced flap. This approach aimed to stabilize the blood clot and prevent soft tissue collapse into the defect area, enhancing the position and volume of the interdental papilla. Results at 6- and 12-months follow-up indicated significant improvement in papilla appearance and complete root coverage. This case suggests that the modified CTG wall technique can effectively treat buccal and interdental gingival recessions associated with horizontal or infrabony defects.
