ORAL & Implantology Anno I N. 3-4/2008 137 The gingival recession is clinically defined as the apical movement of the gingival margin to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) (1). Histologically it is characterised by the loss of connective fibres of the periodontal tissue and alveolar bone (2). This clinical condition is frequently noticed in the population and particularly among patients with high...

UNLABELLED The aim of this retrospective study was a quantitative analysis of the effect of graded inferior oblique recessions (8 mm, 10 mm or maximal) in strabismus sursoadductorius. METHOD 234 patients (2-81 years of age) with unilateral strabismus sursoadductorius and stereopsis were operated between 1990 and 1999. Maximal recession (14.6 mm) included an anteroposition to the lateral aspec...

OBJECTIVES Gingival recession can lead to root exposure and discomfort for patients. There are various techniques for root coverage. The aim of this study was to compare the use of gingival unit graft (palatal graft including the marginal gingiva and papillae) with free gingival graft for treatment of localized gingival recession. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this randomized controlled clinical t...

2. Inflation and Unemployment during Recessions (mean change from beginning of recession, quarterly data) Despite large rises in unemployment during the Great Recession, inflation has been remarkably stable in almost all advanced economies. This is different from the recessions in the 1970s and 1980s, when inflation fell much more when unemployment rose. Figure 3.1. The Behavior of Inflation Ha...

sharply in the Great Recession and increased slowly in the recovery so that in 2015, six years into the recovery, the employmentpopulation ratio was 3.6 points lower than in 2007.1 How did the U.S. labor market, widely viewed as the most marketdriven and flexible among advanced countries, weather the Great Recession and ensuing recovery? The preceding decades’ ballyhoo about the great American ...

In a sharp turnaround from their fortunes in the 1990-91 recession, banks came through the 2001 recession reasonably well. A look at industry and economy-wide developments in the intervening years suggests that banks fared better largely because of more effective risk management. In addition, they benefited from a decline in short-term interest rates and the relative mildness of the 2001 downturn.

AIM This prospective study compares the results of bilateral medial rectus recession versus (vs) Y-split recession of medial recti techniques for surgical management of essential infantile esotropia. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty patients were included in this study and had preoperative infantile esotropia with large angles (ie, >30 prism diopters [PD]). Patients were divided into Group A, whic...

AIM: This case report presents one such case which has been successfully treated using inversely placed periosteal pedicle graft. BACKGROUND: Various periodontal surgical procedures have evolved over time for obtaining complete root coverage of isolated single tooth miller’s class I and class II gingival recession defects. CASE DESCRIPTION: inversely placed Periosteal pedicle graft is a latest ...

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Obtaining root coverage has become an important part of periodontal therapy. The aims of this studyare to evaluate the clinical efficacy of acellular dermal matrix graft in the coverage of denuded roots and also to examine the change in the width of keratinized gingiva. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 20 sites with more than or equal to 2 mm of recession depth were taken ...

AIM To review evidence for the treatments of gingival recession and root caries in older populations. MATERIALS & METHODS A systematic approach was adopted to identify reviews and articles to allow us to evaluate the treatments for gingival recession and root caries. Searches were performed in PubMed, Medline and Embase, the Cochrane trials register and bibliographies of European and World Wo...
