We report a 39-yr-old man with neuro-Behçet's disease (NBD) in remission who developed left-sided ataxia with a sensory deficit about 10 days after tooth extraction. Several years ago, he experienced a similar episode of relapse after tooth extraction. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a newly developed right thalamic lesion. In cerebrospinal fluid, lymphocyte-dominant pleocytosis and mil...

This study compared the effects of tooth extractions under novel painless single tooth anesthesia (STA) and conventional anesthesia on elderly patients with periodontal diseases, and the impact of painless STA on clinical indicators of the patients. Elderly patients (n=116) with periodontal diseases who were treated in Jinan Central Hospital were selected to undergo extraction operation on loos...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the principal reason for primary tooth extraction and the tooth type most frequently extracted in children aged 3-13 years. METHODS The patients selected for this retrospective study were identified by analyzing dental records of children receiving treatment at Franciscan Children's Hospital & Rehabilitation Center, Boston, MA (FCH & RC). I...

Objectives: Extraction of a tooth leads to a series of healing events that are intimately associated with dimensional changes in the alveolar ridge that typically result in a net volume loss. Previous studies have evaluated the extent and pattern of those resorptive changes, however it remains challenging to predict the degree of change that will occur, as numerous local and systemic factors ma...

introduction : preservation of bone volume immediately after tooth removal might be necessary to optimize the success of implant placement. the aim of this study was to compare bone dimensional changes following tooth extraction without bio-oss and with bio-oss and a collagen membrane in the dental socket. materials and methods: in this experimental interventional study, thirty subjects who req...

INTRODUCTION Tooth autotransplantation is a treatment option that has the potential to restore masticatory function and esthetics to edentulous spaces resulting from extracted teeth. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic factors and clinical outcomes for autotransplanted teeth with complete root formation. METHODS Patients who had received tooth autotransplantation in th...

A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown,bridge,denture,facial prosthesis or even can act as an orthodontic anchor.A variable amount of healing time is required for osseointegration before either the dental prosthetic (a tooth, bridge or denture) is attached to the implant or an abutment is placed w...
