AB  - Objectives Sutures are the most frequently used medical device for wound closure. They support tissue during the early phase of healing until it regains enough tensile strength. The aim of this study was to compare four different suture materials in terms of the influence on wound healing, microbial adherence, tissue reaction, and relevant clinical parameters which determine their clinical value. Materials and Methods Total number of 32 patients undergoing surgical extraction of four impacted third molars were involved in the study. Clinical parameters were estimated intraoperatively and during the control check-ups. Soft tissue healing around sutures were evaluated on the 3rd and 7th day postoperatively. Microbial colonization was assessed by means of qPCR. Also, histological analysis was done to assess inflammatory reaction. Results Significantly better soft tissue healing was found around monofilament and synthetic sutures compared to multifilament and natural ones respectively. Soft tissue healing was significantly better around all sutures on the 7th day than on the 3rd day postoperatively. Conclusions Non-resorbable polypropylene suture showed superior clinical characteristics among all sutures. Moreover, the best healing of soft tissue and the least inflammatory reaction was found around this thread. The poorest soft tissue healing was found around non-resorbable silk suture. This suture elicited strongest inflammatory reaction and showed the greatest microbial adherence affinity compared to alternative sutures.

AB  - Introduction/Objective The purpose of this study was to compare polypropylene and silk suture materials in terms of bacterial adherence and clinical features including the impact on soft tissue healing. Methods Ten healthy patients were included in this study. Unilateral upper and lower wisdom teeth were extracted at the same time and wounds were sutured with different threads (one monofilament - polypropylene - and one multifilament - silk suture). Stitches were removed seven days postoperatively. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to analyze bacterial adherence. Intraoperative handling and ease of removal were assessed with the help of Visual Analogue Scale. Landry healing index was used for evaluation of soft tissue healing. Results Significantly more pronounced bacterial adherence was found on silk compared to polypropylene sutures (p = 0.005). Superior intraoperative handling properties were registered suturing with polypropylene compared to silk (p = 0.005). Soft tissue healing was significantly better around polypropylene sutures, both on the third and the seventh postoperative day (p = 0.016). Patient discomfort was slightly higher for polypropylene sutures, but without statistical significance. Conclusion Polypropylene suture material showed significantly lower bacterial adherence and superior clinical features compared to silk, including better soft tissue healing.
AB  - Uvod/Cilj Cilj ove studije bio je poređenje svilenog (SK) i polipropilenskog konca (PPK) u pogledu prijemčivosti za bakterije i kliničkih karakteristika, uključujući uticaj na zarastanje mekog tkiva u usnoj duplji. Metode U studiju je uključeno deset zdravih ispitanika kod kojih su hirurški izvađeni gornji i donji umnjak sa jedne strane istovremeno, a rane su ušivene različitim koncima (jedan monofilamentni - PPK i jedan polifilamentni - SK). Kvantifikacija bakterija na uzorcima konaca koji su uklonjeni sedam dana posle operacije urađena je metodom lančane reakcije polimeraze u realnom vremenu. Oralni hirurg je uz pomoć Vizuelne analogne skale ocenjivao lakoću intraoperativnog rukovanja, kao i lakoću uklanjanja konaca. Za procenu kvaliteta zarastanja mekog tkiva korišćen je indeks po Landriju. Rezultati Statistički značajno više bakterija nađeno je na svim uzorcima SK u poređenju sa PPK (p = 0,005). PPK se pokazao značajno lakšim za intraoperativno rukovanje u odnosu na SK (p = 0,005). Takođe, zarastanje mekog tkiva, 3. i 7. dana postoperativno, bilo je značajno uspešnije oko PPK nego oko SK (p = 0,016). Neprijatnost zbog prisustva konaca bila je veća kod primene PPK u odnosu na SK, ali bez statistički značajne razlike. Zaključak Polipropilenski konac je u odnosu na svileni konac pokazao značajno manju prijemčivost za bakterije i bolje kliničke karakteristike, uključujući i bolje zarastanje mekog tkiva.

AB  - Decoronation is a surgical procedure based on idea of sectioning tooth crown and maintaining the root in situ with intention to preclude occurrence of severe deformities of bone and soft tissue which may aggravate later rehabilitation of patient. The aim of this report is to present the use of decoronation in a young adult patient as a solution in order to preserve sufficient amount of bone for delayed implant placement and decrease volume of grafting material to a minimum. Obtained results showed this procedure may greatly improve anatomical conditions for implant placement while reducing invasiveness and required financial means.
AB  - Dekoronizacija je hirurška procedura koja ima za cilj uklanjanje krunice zuba i zadržavanja korena u alveoli radi sprečavanja nastanka značajnijih promena i poremećaja u koštanom i mekotkivnom kompleksu, koje mogu otežati kasniju protetsku rehabilitaciju pacijenta. U ovom radu je prikazana dekoronizacija kod odrasle mlade pacijentkinje radi prezervacije (alveolarnog grebena) i stvaranja mekog tkiva za postavljanje implantata uz upotrebu minimalnih količina veštačkih materijala. Ostvareni rezultati pokazali su da ova procedura može doprineti poboljšanju anatomskih uslova za ugradnju implantata uz značajnu redukciju invazivnosti, kao i finansijskih sredstava neophodnih za sprovođenje tehnike.
