Factors Affecting Residual Ridge Resorption: a Literature Review
Abstract: Residual ridge is a term used to define the shape of the alveolar ridge after healing of bone and soft tissue after tooth extraction. Patients suffering from long-standing edentulism commonly suffer from this incapacitating problem, especially in the mandible. As it causes physiologic, physical, and economic problems to patients, the cause of ridge resorption needs to be identified. Residual Ridge Resorption is a progressive, irreversible disease, as a result of …

Residual Nonunion in a Case of Two and-a-half Year Old Child Congenital Pseudarthrosis of Ipsilateral Tibia and Fibula Treated by Intramedullary Fixation with K-Wire and Allogenic Cancellous Strut Graft: A Case Report
Abstract: The pseudarthrosis usually develops during the first two years of life; however, there are reports of cases in which fractures developed before birth and reports of late-onset pseudarthrosis. There is a strong association between congenital pseudarthrosis (CPT) and Type I neurofibromatosis. CPT develops in about 5.7% of patients with NF-I and 40% of patients with pseudarthrosis were found to have NF-I. Main pathology is hyperplasia of fibroblasts with the formation …

A Review on Current Status of Biodegradable Surgical Implant Materials
Abstract: Since many years, inert metals such as stainless steel, cobalt-chromium and titanium alloys have been the primary biomaterials used for load bearing applications. In order to these metallic implants such as pins, screws and plates for repairing the defects have to be removed by secondary surgery once the bone tissue is healed, which will increase the morbidity, pain and cost. Hence conventional metallic biomaterials are biocompatible but not biodegradable. At …

Menstrual Blood Banking: A Future Need and Scope
Abstract: Stem cells abundant in menstrual blood possess the capacity to develop and differentiate into various cell types. The regenerative capacity of these stem cells derived from menstrual blood is comparable to that observed in stem cells present in umbilical cord blood and bone marrow. Every healthy woman experiences menstruation on average once every 28 to 30 days from the time of menstruation till menopausal. Menstrual blood banking involves storing menstrual …

Bone Grafting in Dentistry: From Biological Principles to Contemporary Regenerative Applications
Abstract: Bone grafting plays a pivotal role in contemporary regenerative dentistry by enabling predictable reconstruction of alveolar bone defects resulting from periodontal disease, tooth extraction, trauma, or pathology. Adequate bone volume and quality are essential prerequisites for successful implant placement, periodontal regeneration, and long-term functional and esthetic outcomes. Bone graft materials act as biological or synthetic scaffolds that facilitate new bone formation through the primary mechanisms of osteogenesis, osteoinduction, osteoconduction, and …

Concern for Public Health: Periodontitis
Abstract: Periodontitis, a severe form of gum disease, erodes the bone that supports teeth and results in tooth loss. It is caused by bacterial infection and inflammation of the soft tissues around the teeth. About 70% of people 65 years of age and older are affected, on average. Red, bleeding, sensitive gums, foul breath, and receding gums are hallmark indications. Depending on the severity, a full dental examination, the insertion of …

REPEATED MOPs VS DUAL APPROACH IN ACCELERATED ORTHODONTICS
Abstract: In contemporary orthodontics, there is a pressing need to minimize treatment duration, which is often a concern for both orthodontic specialists and patients. Prolonged treatment periods not only pose logistical challenges but also increase the risks of various dental issues such as cavities, periodontal problems, chronic discomfort, and root resorption. Accelerated orthodontics has emerged as a promising solution to address these challenges. Numerous efforts have been undertaken to expedite orthodontic …

Evaluation of Lakshadi Guggulu, Tiktadi Oil Matra Basti and Tiktadi Ksheer Basti in Asthikshaya w.s.r. to Osteoporosis
Abstract: Osteoporosis has become a public health problem worldwide. In Osteoporosis the bone loses their peak bone mass and becomes weak, fragile and susceptible to fractures at minimum stress. Osteoporosis can be compared with Asthikshaya. Asthis and vata are having direct relationship with each other and reciprocal to each other i.e., if vata increases then it will decrease the bone mass. Basti is supposed to be best treatment for balancing vata …

Socket Preservation: Review
Abstract: The removal of a tooth results in remodeling and absorption not only within the socket but also in the surrounding alveolar bone. Alterations in the bone ridge following extraction are unavoidable, influenced by the initial size of the socket, with wider sockets requiring more time to heal completely. Both the height and width of the bone undergo dimensional changes subsequent to tooth extraction.The volumetric bone reduction changes occur after tooth …

The Implant-Bone Interface: Biologic and Biomechanical Perspectives
Abstract: Tissue integration at the interface of healed functioning dental implants occurs in three possible modes. Before examining mainstream step-by-step treatment, it is important to know what these three modes are, and how they differ. The practitioner determines and controls the mode of tissue integration. This article carefully examines the physiology, biomechanics, and clinical considerations associated with each of the three modes of tissue integration. Keywords: Osseointegration, Osteopreservation, Osteoconduction, Distance Osteogenesis, …

An Overview on the Characterization and Investigation of Polymerized Bio-Ceramics for Bone Regenerative Applications
Abstract: Many osseous faults resulting from fracture offer inherent capacity of the body to overhaul and activate the bone grafts for recovery process. In the early development, nonautologous bone grafts made of Titanium and stainless steel were suitable because of their mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, biocompatibility and durability. Biodegradable polymers belonging to the family of polymers and bioceramics also, play a major role in orthopaedics. The polymers, poly glycolic acid, poly …

Pathways of Periodontal Disease and Alveolar Bone Loss in Type II Diabetes
Abstract: or poorly-controlled type II diabetes often exhibits a high morbidity of periodontal pathology. Food impaction in defective restorations or open proximal contacts often leads to infection, carious lesions, periodontitis, alveolar bone loss and often tooth loss. An iatrogenic injury occurs when restorations are defective, fractures, or have open proximal contacts and are not planned to be repaired or replaced. In addition to having poor therapeutic outcomes, defective restorations or open …

Endodontic Considerations: Physiology of the Accessory Canals of the Dental Pulp
Abstract: Access to endodontic therapy by the general population is often limited by the high expense of these procedures (i.e., sometimes requiring the expertise of a dental specialist in Endodontics). The segments of the endodontic apparatus (i.e., periapical complex, accessory canals, and root canal space) with their unique qualities as to spacial relationships, composition of microbial flora, immunological considerations, and host factors, function together leading to the success of initial endodontic …
