- Comparison of bite force evaluation for mandibular angle fracture fixation by conventional miniplates versus new design miniplates: a clinical studyon 23/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose To evaluate postoperative masticatory efficacy of a new design non-compression titanium miniplate compared to conventional non-compression titanium miniplate on the basis of bite force for treatment of mandibular angle fractures. Methodology The prospective study included 20 patients with mandibular angle fractures randomly categorized into 2 groups: Group I, fixation of angle fractures by conventional miniplates, and Group II, fixation of angle fractures by new design miniplates. Evaluation was done for clinical outcome, primarily bite force; radiological outcome; and associated postoperative morbidities at different time intervals. Results The results showed to be highly significant in terms of mean operating time for plate adaptation and fixation and bite force adaptation (p = 0.003 at follow-up of 6 months) for the newer miniplate compared to the conventional miniplate. No statistically significant difference was seen for postoperative paresthesia, malunion, non-union, occlusal discrepancy, or hardware failure. Conclusion Within the limits of the study, it appears that the single, monocortical, non-compression, superior border new design miniplate proved to be a successful procedure for treating non-comminuted mandibular angle fractures specifically in terms of enhanced postoperative masticatory efficiency as compared to conventional miniplates. Further clinical studies with larger sample size can derive a more comprehensive conclusion.
- Does orthognathic surgery affect mandibular condyle position? A retrospective studyon 23/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study is to analyze mandibular condyle position changes after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) and bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in patients operated at a single department by two surgeons in 2013–2022. Compared were groups of mandibular advancement vs setback and bimaxillary vs BSSO. Methods Ninety-nine subjects were included. Inclusion criteria were patients who underwent one of the BSSO or bimaxillary surgery and had CT scans performed before and after surgery. Preoperative CT scans were performed 1 day before surgery and postoperative CT scans 6–12 months afterwards. Changes in mandibular condyle position were measured in axial and sagittal planes. Results CT condylar position measurements indicated significant postoperative changes in AB angle bilaterally (p = < 0.001). In mandibular advancement and setback comparison, values were significantly lower in ABL angle values in the setback group (p = 0.011326) and significantly higher in FDR in the advancement group (p = 0.005795). There were no statistically significant changes found in BSSO and bimaxillary group comparison. Conclusion Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that orthognathic surgery does have a moderate effect on position of the condyles, especially condylar rotation in transversal axis.
- Can growing patients with end-stage TMJ pathology be successfully treated with alloplastic temporomandibular joint reconstruction? – A systematic reviewon 21/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Introduction The use of alloplastic total temporomandibular joint reconstruction (TMJR) in growing patients is controversial, mainly due to immature elements of the craniomaxillofacial skeleton. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the use of alloplastic TMJR in growing patients, focusing on the patient’s clinical presentation, surgical and medical history and efficacy of alloplastic TMJR implantation. Materials and methods The literature search strategy was based on the Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcomes and Study type (PICOS) framework. We searched Pubmed, Google Scholar, Dimension, Web of Science, X-mol, Semantic Scholar and Embase to January 2023, without any restriction on the type of publication reporting alloplastic TMJR in growing patients (age ≤ 18 years for boys and age ≤ 15 years for girls). Results A total of 15 studies (case reports: 09, case series: 02, cohort studies: 04) met the inclusion criteria, documenting 73 patients of growing age from 07 countries. Thirty-eight (~ 52%) cases were female. The mean ± SD (range) age and follow-up of patients in all studies was 13.1 ± 3.2 (0–17) years and 34.3 ± 21.5 (7–96) months, respectively. A total of 22 (30%) patients were implanted with bilateral alloplastic TMJR. Over half of the studies (n = 10) were published in the last 3 years. All patients underwent multiple surgeries prior to implantation of alloplastic TMJR. In extreme cases, patients underwent a total of 17 surgeries. Different types of studies reporting inconsistent variables restricted our ability to perform quality assessment measures for evidence building. Conclusions Clinical experience with alloplastic TMJR in growing patients is limited to cases showing poor prognosis with other types of reconstruction. Nevertheless, studies show promising results for the use of alloplastic TMJR in growing patients, highlighting the need for well-controlled prospective studies with long-term follow-up.
- Mineralization and morphology of peri-implant bone around loaded and unloaded dental implants retrieved from the human mandibleon 04/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose Limited data is reported regarding the bone mineralization around dental implants in the first months from insertion. The study analyzed the peri-implant bone around loaded and unloaded implants retrieved from human mandible after 4 months from placement. Method The composition and mineralization of human bone were analyzed through an innovative protocol technique using Environmental-Scanning-Electron-Microscopy connected with Energy-Dispersive-X-Ray-Spectroscopy (ESEM/EDX). Two regions of interest (ROIs, approximately 750×500 μm) for each bone implant sample were analyzed at the cortical (Cortical ROI) and apical (Apical ROI) implant threads. Calcium, phosphorus, and nitrogen (atomic%) were determined using EDX, and the specific ratios (Ca/N, P/N, and Ca/P) were calculated as mineralization indices. Results Eighteen implant biopsies from ten patients were analyzed (unloaded implants, n=10; loaded implants, n=8). For each ROI, four bone areas (defined bones 1–4) were detected. These areas were characterized by different mineralization degree, varied Ca, P and N content, and different ratios, and by specific grayscale intensity detectable by ESEM images. Bony tissue in contact with loaded implants at the cortical ROI showed a higher percentage of low mineralized bone (bone 1) and a lower percentage of remodeling bone (bone 2) when compared to unloaded implants. The percentage of highly mineralized bone (bone 3) was similar in all groups. Conclusion Cortical and apical ROIs resulted in a puzzle of different bone “islands” characterized by various rates of mineralization. Only the loaded implants showed a high rate of mineralization in the cortical ROI.
- Influence of dental implant/mini-implant design on stress distribution in overdentures: a systematic reviewon 04/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose Critically evaluate the existing literature and answer the question, “Does the dental implant/mini-implant design influence the stress distribution in prosthetic overdentures according to finite element analysis?”. Methods This systematic review was registered in the Open Science Framework (osf.io/2bquj) and followed the PRISMA protocols. The custom search strategy was applied to 4 databases. In vitro experimental studies that evaluated the influence of dental implant/mini-implant design on stress distribution in overdentures by FEM, without time and language restrictions, were included. The selection process was carried out in two stages by two reviewers independently. Risk of bias analysis was performed by a checklist of important parameters. Results Sixty articles were evaluated by their title and abstract, four were selected for full reading, three were relevant, and nine were included by additional search. The 12 studies have a low risk of bias. The meta-analysis could not be performed due to the heterogeneity of the data (implant type, design variation, load intensity, and direction). Conclusion It can be inferred from the evaluated literature that design modifications influence the stress distribution, but as the FEM presents limitations inherent to the in vitro study, clinical trials are necessary to infer the effectiveness of the modifications. It should be noted that there is no consensus on which is the best thread design and that implants with a very narrow diameter are subject to the highest stress concentration.
- Pronounced mediastinal emphysema after restorative treatment of the lower left molar—a case report and a systematic review of the literatureon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract This case report presents an iatrogenic induced mediastinal emphysema after restorative treatment of the lower left second molar, aimed to highlight the potential life-threatening consequences, and providing diagnostics and treatment concepts of complicated dental induced emphysema based on literature review. A 74-year-old female patient was admitted to the emergency department due to a fall on her shoulder. Additional finding was a significant swelling of the face and neck. In the computer tomography of the head, neck, and thorax, a humerus fracture and pronounced soft tissue emphysema from the infraorbital region to the mediastinum was detected. The patient reported that she had been treated by her dentist 4 days earlier. The treatment had to be discontinued after beginning of a pronounced swelling. Other reasons for the emphysema could be excluded out on an interdisciplinary teamwork. The patient was monitored as an inpatient for 5 days and received intravenous antibiotic therapy. This case report shows the rare complication of pronounced mediastinal emphysema after root canal treatment. Emphysema should always be a differential diagnosis of soft tissue swelling and, in case of doubt, a general medical presentation should be made.
- A rare case of bilateral pseudoaneurysm secondary to mandibular condyle fracture—a case report with review of literatureon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract This paper aims to present a rare case report of bilateral pseudoaneurysm secondary to condylar fracture and its management with a brief review of literature. A patient of age 19 years with alleged history of road traffic accident presented 6 weeks lately to our department with slow growing swelling in right preauricular area. History revealed bilateral condylar fracture with right parasymphysis fracture of mandible for which patient underwent maxillomandibular fixation for 4 weeks. The diffuse swelling in preauricular region showed positive signs of pulsation and audible bruit. Ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced computed tomography suggested the bilateral presence of vascular anamoly from the terminal branches of external carotid artery. Diagnostic angiography confirmed presence of pseudoaneurysm at the bifurcation of the internal maxillary artery and superficial temporal artery (STA) on right side whereas on the left side it was at proximal STA. Bilateral endovascular coil and gel foam embolization was done and thrombosis was confirmed with high frequency ultrasound on fourth postintervention day. The swelling completely resolved in a period of 1 month with no evidence of recurrence in the following 2-year follow-up period. Routine investigation revealed presence of pseudoaneurysm on left side which was completely without any clinical signs as repoterd by many cases of condylar fracture in the literature review. Pseudoaneurysm may remain silent and are exposed intraoperatively with massive bleeding which causes significant morbidity. Hence, prompt diagnosis and management is essential to avoid unexpected complication perioperatively.
- Mid-facial soft tissue re-suspension following skeletal fixation after maxillofacial trauma—a prospective case series studyon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is used for reduction and stabilization of facial fractures. Despite perfect anatomic skeletal reduction, subtle asymmetries are seen in facial appearance as mid-facial soft tissue often reattaches to the respective facial bones in an aberrant, mostly lower in position. Thus, the present study evaluates the effectiveness of mid-facial soft tissue re-suspension procedure to prevent changes in mid-facial soft tissue profile after ORIF of maxillo-facial fractures. Methods Fifteen patients with maxillo-facial fractures requiring ORIF were included. After ORIF, mid-facial soft tissue resuspension (STRP) was done by suspending the soft tissue and periosteum over cheek region from temporal fascia by polydioxanone suture material. The results were analyzed by patient satisfaction survey and doctor perspective form on photographs by three surgeons 6 months postoperatively. Results All patients were male in the age range of 18–60 years. STRP was done unilaterally in 7 cases and bilaterally in 8 cases, with average time ranging from 10.6 to 20.5 min. The patient satisfaction survey revealed that 86.6% were pleased with their appearance and 93% said that there was no abnormal change in the esthetics postoperatively. The doctor perception form revealed almost 80% agreement, that there was minimal change in the appearance of cheek mound, nasolabial fold, corner of the mouth, and lateral canthus postoperatively. Conclusion STRP is a simple technique to perform with fewer complications, and helps in restoring facial esthetics, same as prior to facial trauma; as it prevents soft tissue sagging after degloving incisions for fracture reduction and fixation.
- Patterns and characteristics of maxillofacial fractures in womenon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose Facial trauma in women is complex with physical, psychosocial, and cultural influences impacting clinical presentations. Although multifactorial, assaults and falls are principally reported as the main causes. Methods A retrospective review was conducted from January 2012 to January 2017 at the Women and Children’s Hospital and Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide. All maxillofacial fractures in women that attended or were referred to the unit were included in this study. The primary objective was to analyse epidemiological trends of facial fractures and clinical outcomes in the South Australian female population. Results There is a bimodal distribution of facial fractures at 25–35 years and 65 + years. Indigenous females were 19.5 years younger than non-indigenous females (30.5 vs 49.9, P < 0.001). Approximately half the cohort had a fall-related facial fracture, followed by assault (26.2%), and sports (10.3%). There was a higher proportion of non-alcohol-related trauma from assaults than alcohol-related assaults (72.5% vs 27.5%, P < 0.001). Over half (58.0%) of the cohort had a midface fracture. The elderly had increased odds of 1.9 fold for facial fractures in winter, largely from falls, compared to younger women. Associated injuries were present in almost half the elderly women with 2.6 times the risk compared to younger women. Younger women had higher incidences of surgical intervention (52.6% vs 14.3%, P < 0.05). Conclusions Young women disproportionately experience larger incidences of non-alcohol-related assaults requiring operative intervention of the mandible, whereas elderly women principally suffer fall-related facial fractures with higher rates of associated injuries.
- Histologic features of bone regenerated by means of negative pressure in the context of odontogenic keratocyston 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose The objective of the present research is to describe the histologic features of the bone regenerated by means of negative pressure (sugosteogenesis) in a group of patients diagnosed with odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) who underwent active decompression and distraction sugosteogenesis (ADDS) at our institution. Materials and methods The authors designed a retrospective case series study. The population included patients with a histologic diagnosis of odontogenic keratocyst in whom active decompression and distraction sugosteogenesis followed by enucleation was performed. All patients were seen and followed from July 2019 to January 2021. The investigation was approved by the Institutional Review Board, and it observed the Declaration of Helsinki on medical protocol. Variables of this study included age, gender, anatomic location (mandible or maxilla), and histologic characteristics of the bone regenerated by means of negative pressure. Histologic features were defined as being consistent or inconsistent with viable mature bone. Results Bone biopsies of 6 patients were considered. In total, 83.33% of patients were males and 16.66% females. One hundred percent of the bone samples subjected to negative pressure showed features of viable mature bone. Conclusions In this study, the histological features of the bone subjected to negative pressure demonstrated the normal characteristics of the mature, normal bone.
- The global reach of social media in oral and maxillofacial surgeryon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose Social media use among oral and maxillofacial surgeons (OMSs) has grown in recent years, serving as an important resource for the dissemination of medical/surgical knowledge, research, education, diplomacy, and advocacy. However, no studies have attempted to characterize the global reach of social media in OMS. Methods This study examined the profile activity, content performance, and demographic characteristics of followers from a single OMS-related Instagram account. Variables assessed include the total number of followers since the account’s inception, profile views over the selected time period, and unique media content posts, as well as likes, comments, saves, impressions, and reach for all media content posts. The top 45 countries, cities, and languages based on each follower’s geolocation and user settings were also included. Results There were 9569 followers of which 6208 (64.9%) were listed as public accounts. Of the 6208 followers with public accounts, 2496 (40.2%) were female. The countries with the most followers included the United States (31.7%), India (12.5%), Malaysia (5.3%), Mexico (4.0%), and Pakistan (3.6%). The cities with the most followers included New York, New York (8.9%), Boston, Massachusetts (5.2%), Cairo, Egypt (4.3%), Santiago, Chile (3.7%), and Karachi, Pakistan (3.5%). Conclusion OMS-related social media is uniquely positioned to facilitate global collaboration and augment the dissemination of surgical knowledge and expertise. This information is critical in understanding the distribution and demographics of the OMS workforce, trainees, and affiliates around the world.
- Efficacy of fibrin-rich platelets and leukocytes (L-PRF) in tissue repair in surgical oral procedures in patients using zoledronic acid—case–control studyon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Introduction Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) is a complication that develops in patients who use or have used antiresorptive or antiangiogenic medications for the treatment of bone metabolic disease and bone metastases. Clinically, MRONJ is characterized by the appearance of an inflammation in soft tissues and exposure of necrotic bone tissue in mandible or maxilla, for a period of 8 weeks, in patients with no history of head and neck radiotherapy that were being or are being treated with antiresorptive and/or antiangiogenic agents. The fibrin-rich platelets and leukocytes (L-PRF) membrane has been used as an alternative for MRONJ prevention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of L-PRF in prevention and treatment of bone necrosis. Material and Methods The patients included had MRONJ diagnosis confirmed after clinical and radiographic examination and patients whose only therapeutic option was dental extraction. Results Twenty patients were included in the study and were divided in three groups. Two patients were removed from the study due to previous history of pentoxifylline and tocopherol use. The result of surgical treatment was successful in 57% in group 1 (control/MRONJ prevention), 100% in group 2 (MRONJ prevention), and 80% in group 3 (MRONJ treatment). Conclusion L-PRF is an autologous biomaterial that allows the release of growth factors for a prolonged time, resulting in a better healing, reducing the risk contamination, edema, and postoperative pain, being a great ally in the prevention and treatment of MRONJ because it returns to these patients, mainly quality of life, reducing pain, and recurrent infections commonly seen in the processes of bone necrosis of the jaws.

- 5-fluorouacil in the treatment of odontogenic keratocysts—incidence of recurrence and inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia: a systematic reviewon 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the recurrence rate of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) after treatment with 5-fluoracil as an adjunctive therapy and to evaluate, as well, the efficacy of this medication in reducing the incidence of inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia associated with other chemotherapeutic agents. Material and methods The research question (developed according to the patient/population, intervention, comparison, and outcomes [PICO] method) addressed was “Does the use of 5-fluorouracil as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of OKC reduce both the recurrence rate and the incidence of inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia as compared with other chemotherapeutic agents?” A systematic review was performed by searching 4 databases: PubMed, EBSCO, Portal Evidencia, and Cochrane Reviews. Each search was conducted twice. Two independent reviewers evaluated the data. For each database, a search strategy was developed that included the following generic terms: Fluorouracil, 5-Fluorouracil, or liquid nitrogen and odontogenic cyst or odontogenic keratocyst. Three filters were applied to the searches, as well, consisting of the terms clinical trials, English papers, and Spanish papers. Results Of the 74 papers retrieved. The titles and abstracts of the selected papers were reviewed to determine whether those papers were relevant to our research question; only 3 papers were selected for this systematic review: 2 retrospective cohort studies and 1 clinical trial. Assessments risk bias and the quality of evidence were performed. Conclusions The risk of bias and quality of evidence in this systematic review are moderate due to the study’s design, although the clinical results were excellent with respect to the reduction of both OKC recurrence and paresthesia associated with this kind of cyst.
- Traumatic brain injuries and maxillofacial fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysison 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) associated with maxillofacial fractures (MFFs) are a public health concern worldwide, especially among adult-aged males. There is an urgent need for early detection of associated TBIs in patients with MFFs during the initial assessment and treatment stage to reduce morbidity and mortality. The objective of the present study was to systematically review the literature to determine specific MFF situations associated with TBIs and to identify the factors associated with TBIs in patients with MFFs. The protocol was developed in accord with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) and was registered to the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) under the registration number CRD42020155912. Overall, of 26,774 patients recorded, 13,667 patients (51.04%) sustained MFFs with an associated TBI. The male to female ratio was 4.8:1. RTA was the most common cause. The most common TBIs were concussions, contusions, and closed brain injuries. Within the limits of this study, it was concluded that TBI-related MFFs should be suspected whenever maxillary or mandibular bone fractures occur, especially among adults, males, and people with injuries caused by RTAs and assaults. There is a need to increase the awareness of maxillofacial surgeons on the possible associations of combined maxillofacial trauma and brain injuries.
- Evaluation of bony changes observed in mandibular osteotomy lines and mandibular condyles following bilateral sagittal ramus osteotomy by fractal analysison 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the surgically impacted trabecular changes in mandibular osteotomy lines and mandibular condyles after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy using the fractal analysis method. Materials and method The study population consisted of 30 patients (9 male, 21 female) diagnosed with mandibular prognathism and operated with bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy under general anesthesia. Fractal analyses observed the alterations on the trabecular structure of osteotomy lines, and mandibular condyles on panoramic radiographs obtained preoperatively, postoperatively, 1st week, 6th month, and 12th month. The box-counting method was used to evaluate the changes in trabecular structure by fractal analysis. P-values of less than 0.05 were considered significant. Results The fractal dimension values in both osteotomy lines and mandibular condyles were significantly decreased on postoperative 1st week regarding preoperative values. However, fractal dimension values commenced increasing in the following postoperative period. The fractal dimension values of the horizontal and vertical osteotomy lines reached their preoperative values on postoperative 6th and 12th month, respectively. The decreased fractal dimension values observed in the early postoperative period in the right and left condyles reached their preoperative values at the 6th postoperative month. Conclusion Fractal analyses performed postoperatively can provide information about trabecular changes and bone healing of structures such as osteotomy lines directly affected by bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy and indirectly affected mandibular condyles. The results support that fractal analysis can be used together with clinical data in the evaluation of bone healing process.
- Efficacy of simvastatin in bone regeneration after surgical removal of mandibular third molarson 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of simvastatin in bone regeneration in extraction sockets of mandibular third molars using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) at 6th post-operative month. Methods This is a prospective randomized split-mouth study involving 15 patients who underwent surgical extraction of bilaterally impacted mandibular third molars with similar morphology on the same day. The efficacy of drug was analyzed by implanting 10 mg of simvastatin into the socket (study site) and observations were made over 6 months to compare the healing with the control site. Results The study results demonstrated a statistically significant difference in bone regeneration: mean gray value of 429.133 in study site compared with mean gray value of 310.153 in the control site. Conclusion These values demonstrate significant change in bone regeneration in simvastatin site as compared to that of control site.
- Observational and descriptive analysis of broken dental needles: a case serieson 01/09/2023 at 12:00 am
Abstract Purpose To discuss potential causes of broken dental needles during dental anesthesia and features of this complication, including the anatomical location of fragments in tissues, symptoms, complications, and therapeutic approaches. Methods Twelve cases of broken dental needles occurring during dental anesthesia and subsequently referred to Hospital de Base do Distrito Federal, Brazil, between 1992 and 2019 were selected. In addition, similar cases reported in the literature over the past 50 years were reviewed. Results Needle fractures occur most frequently during inferior alveolar nerve blocks and in younger patients. The leading cause is unexpected patient movement during the anesthetic procedure. The needle fragment is most commonly found in the pterygomandibular space or the deep spaces of the head and neck region. Needle migration is a particular concern; although rare, it is unpredictable and potentially life-threatening. Conclusions Needle fracture is an intraoperative complication which has the potential to cause severe patient damage. It is essential that practitioners have knowledge of this possible complication and understand the technical considerations for its prevention. The existing literature and the results of this case series analysis suggest that removal of the fractured needle fragment should be attempted as soon as possible.
