bacterial meningitis after spinal and epidural anesthesia is a very rare but serious complication. we report a case of meningitis developing a number of hours after a spinal block for caesarean section. no organism was grown but the csf pattern was suggestive of bacterial meningitis. severe neurological sequelae were present after three months of hospitalization. meningitis is a serious complic...

Background : To compare crestal bone changes after placement of immediate versus delayed dental implant
 Aim and Objective Comparative evaluation in palcement implant: A clinico-radiographical study.
 Methods coparative study was conducted total 20 implant sites patients within the age group 20-60 years comprising both male female visiting Out-patient Department Periodontology Implant...

background: the success of dental implants depends on the manner in which stresses are transferred to the surrounding bone. an important consideration is to design an implant with a geometry that will minimize the peak bone stresses caused by standard loading. the aim of this study was to assess the infl uence of implant thread geometry on biomechanical load transfer and to compare the differen...

The first report in the literature to quantify early crestal bone loss was a 15-year retrospective study that evaluated implants placed in edentulous jaws. In this study, Adell et al. reported an average of 1.2 mm marginal bone loss from the first thread during healing and the first year after loading. In contrast with the bone loss during the first year, there was an average of only 0.1 mm bon...
