Methods about removal of intramedullary nail in complicated cases were reported in some literatures but there are no reports about nail removal in the ulna. The authors would like to report such a case and the technique. We removed bone of the inlet site and created another bony window using an osteotome to expose the interlocking screw holes. Only a bony window the size of 2 inter-interlocking...

The osteotome technique has been utilized for many years as a viable approach to expand atrophic ridges. Despite its effectiveness, the mechanical impact from the surgical mallet is not well tolerated by patients. Additionally, reports in the literature describe postoperative complications that include concussions and benign paroxysmal vertigo. These conditions can be alarming for the patient a...

Dental implants are considered the first choice to replace lost or non-restorable teeth. However, posterior maxilla remains a challenge in its management because of quality bone maxilla. Osseo densification (OD) concept has been proposed literature improve primary implant stability, which is an important aspect osseointegration. Densah bur novel drills specially designed enhance density by dens...

PURPOSE The aim of this clinical study was to compare electrical versus hand mallet in osteotome-assisted surgery for maxillary bone condensing in immediately loaded implant procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS Edentulous patients in maxillary premolar and molar regions with type III or IV bone were enrolled in this prospective clinical study. The patients were randomly divided in two groups: in ...

BACKGROUND Nowadays, short dental implants are being increasingly applied in extremely resorbed posterior regions. The recent studies have indicated that short implants present a similar success rate to conventional implants. It is assumed that short implants can avoid additional surgical morbidity and are less technically demanding. However, high-quality evidence (≥ Ib: evidence from at least ...

This article describes a unilateral extracranial dentigerous cyst containing five dental structures in 3-year-old Warmblood filly that caused drainage from below the left pinna and behavioural changes due to pain. Initial diagnosis was made using radiographs further diagnostic imaging form of computed tomography used for effective surgical planning. highlighted proximity calvarium. All were sur...

OBJECTIVES 1) To evaluate and compare the stability of two types of implants in an animal model after preparing the implant bed with various sequences of osteotomes in bone type IV. 2) To evaluate the hypothesis of whether or not the sequence of using osteotomes influences the primary implant stability. MATERIAL AND METHOD We selected bone from cow ribs, which in its cross section (the most m...
