Objetivo: En este estudio prospectivo a corto plazo se evaluaron los resultados clinicos que se obtuvieron con implantes no ferulizados que soportaban protesis mandibulares con conexiones magneticas en pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 compensada. Materiales y metodos: Siguiendo un protocolo quirurgico estandarizado en dos fases, se coloco un total de 56 implantes (dos por paciente) en la region canina mandibular de 28 pacientes completamente edentulos (18 varones y 1O mujeres) con diabetes mellitus de tipo 2 compensada. Todos los pacientes se quejaban de la retencion insuficiente de su dentadura mandibular. Se confeccionaron nuevas protesis maxilares completas y nuevas protesis soportadas mandibulares. Las protesis se conectaron a los implantes mediante conexiones magneticas. Cada implante se evaluo en el momento de la carga protesica, asi como 6, 12 y 24 meses despues. La evaluacion clinica se efectuo utilizando el indice gingival (IG), el indice de placa (IP), la profundidad de sonda...

Aim of Study: was to compare both clinically and radiographically between the three-dimensional plates, 2.4 reconstruction plates and superior border Champy's single miniplate fixation in the treatment of mandibular angle fractures. Materials and Methods: The study enrolled patients who suffered from mandibular angle fractures, presented to the outpatient clinic of the oral and maxillofacial surgery department, faculty of dentistry, October 6 University as well as to the emergency unit of October 6 University Hospital. Patients were divided into 3 equal groups; Group I where open reduction and internal rigid fixation (ORIF) was performed by using 3 Dimensional miniplates through an intra-oral approach assisted by transbuccal trocar. Group II where ORIF was performed by 2.4 reconstruction plate through an extra-oral Risdon approach. Group III where ORIF was performed using single superior border Champy's miniplate through an intra-oral approach. Follow up were scheduled 1 wee...

Background: A retrospective study was done to evaluate the success rate of immediate reconstruction by split rib bundle bone grafting after segmental resection of Aggressive Pediatric mandibular tumors. Materials and Patients: The present study enrolled sixty-one pediatric patients with aggressive mandibular tumors that had been treated during the period from January 2008 to December 2018. All patients were examined clinically and radiographically by Orthopantomograms, CTs and CBCTs. Radical segmental resection with resultant mandibular continuity defects were thus created followed by immediate reconstruction with non-vascularized Split Rib Bundle Bone Graft (SRBBG). Patients were then rehabilitated by osseointegrated implants with fixed or removable partial dentures. Success of reconstruction was assessed by the percentage of complications, interincisal opening and patient satisfaction. Assessment was performed at 1,3,6 and 12 months postoperatively. All patients were followed up f...

Background The normal bony insertion of the medial canthal tendon can be disrupted after trauma, as a result of ablative surgery or as a consequence of subperiosteal detachment during a craniofacial surgical procedure. Medial canthoplasty is required to avoid telecanthus following these events. Several surgical techniques have been described to reattach the tendon to the posterior lacrimal crest. The techniques of transnasal wiring has been used widely to reconstruct medial canthal tendon. However, some surgeons have preferred the use of ipsilateral techniques that include the nylon anchor suture, the stainless-steel screw and/or miniplates. Aim of the study This study aims to present a technique for Canthopexy and Medial canthal ligament reconstitution secondary to posttraumatic medial canthal degloving injuries using miniscrews and/or microplates to obtain a consistent and definitive reinforcement of the Medial Canthal ligament and its continuity to the postero-superior surface of...

This short-term prospective study evaluated the clinical outcome of unsplinted implants retaining a mandibular overdenture with magnetic attachments in controlled type 2 diabetic patients. Twenty-eight completely edentulous patients (18 men and 10 women) with controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus received a total of 56 implants (two per patient) in the canine region of the mandible using the standardized two-stage surgical protocol. All patients complained of insufficient retention of their mandibular denture. New maxillary complete dentures and mandibular overdentures were fabricated. Overdentures were connected to the implants with magnetic attachments. Each implant was evaluated at the time of prosthetic loading, and 6, 12, and 24 months thereafter. Clinical evaluation was performed using Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index (PI), probing depth (PD), implant stability (ISQ), and vertical bone loss (VBLO). Cumulative success and survival rates were calculated using life table analysis....
