Introduction: The marginal bone change of 1 year loading was evaluated in the non-microthread collar and platform switching structured INNO® dental implant of which the surface is treated with the RBM sandblasting, hyper-thermal acid etching and alkali solution cleaning process for hydrophilic macroand micro-porosity. Material and Methods: A total of 144 implants were placed in the healed ridge...

BACKGROUND Draining cutaneous sinus tract in chin area may be caused by chronic periapical dental infections. Misdiagnosis of these lesions usually leads to destructive invasive treatment of the sinus tract that is not correct and curative. CASE REPORT A 31-year-old male patient referred to us with a chronically draining lesion on his chin. The lesion previously was misdiagnosed by medical do...

This case report describes management a patient who reported prolonged, persistent, and increasing pain on an upper filled central incisor with extruded material. A 28-year-old female came chief complaint tenderness left incisor. The was mostly triggered by mastication. Upon examination investigation, ...

Endodontic surgery aims at the resolution of a periapical inflammatory process by surgical access followed by enucleation of the lesion and root-end filling to curb any potentially noxious agent within the physical confines of the affected root. Guided bone regeneration could be associated to endodontic surgery aiming to enhance periradicular tissue regeneration. The objective of this paper was...

The purpose of this case report is to describe the successful endodontic treatment and surgical management of a unesthetic geminated permanent maxillary lateral incisor tooth. Geminated maxillary incisor clinically revealed bifid crown with coronal groove and intraoral periapical radiograph showing radiolucent lesion with sclerotic border. orthograde root canal treatment was performed. surgery ...

This case report presents an analysis of the clinical, radiographic, and histological features of a peri-implant lesion around an implant placed immediately after extraction of a tooth with a periapical lesion. A 52-year-old man received an immediate implant (3.75 x 11.5 mm2) placed in the anterior region of the maxilla. Three years after implant placement, the patient presented with swelling i...

T he clinician is often confronted with the problem of treating an extensive periapical lesion which may be cystic as a result of pulpal pathosis. Surgical management by curettement and/or apical resection has usually been the accepted procedure for such lesions. However, in cases in which extensive periapical lesions are visualized on the roentgenograms, a surgical approach can create complica...

This study describes the treatment of an immature permanent tooth with periapical lesion which was treated with regenerative approach using platelet rich plasma (PRP). The root canal of immature human permanent tooth with periapical lesion was gently debrided of necrotic tissue and disinfected with 2.5% NaOCl, and then medicated with triple antibiotic paste comprised of ciprofloxacin, metronida...

D entists are repeatedly confronted with the problem of diagnosing and treating periapical lesions. Ordinarily, a nonsurgical cndodontic approach is used in treating lesions that are thnnght to be periapicul granulomas, whereas surgical therapy often is used if the lesion is believed to bc cyst,ic. Thus, choice of treatment usually depends on the clinical assessment of the lesion. Accurate difl...
