Does the presence of an unerupted lower third molar influence the risk of mandibular angle and condylar fractures?
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2016)
It has been suggested that unerupted lower third molars (M3) increase the fragility of the mandibular angle and simultaneously decrease the risk of condylar fracture. However, it is unknown whether this applies regardless ...
Cancer genes alterations and HPV infection in oral squamous cell carcinoma
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2010)
The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of cancer genes contributing to oral squamous cell (OSCC) development and progression and correlate genetic changes to clinical parameters. Human papilloma virus ...
Proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha) and chemokines (IL-8 and MIP-1 alpha as markers of pen-implant tissue condition
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2010)
Analysis of pen-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) offers a non-invasive means of studying the host response in pen-implant disease and may provide an early indication of patients at risk for active disease. This study examined ...
Mandibular nerve block at the oval foramen using reliable landmarks: refinement of a previously described procedure
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2002)
The aim of this study was to improve the injection technique when blocking the mandibular nerve at the oval foramen by using consistent landmarks. The lower lateral orbital angle (LLOA) and the junction of the external ...
Anatomical study of the pterygopalatine fossa pertinent to the maxillary nerve block at the foramen rotundum
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2010)
The anatomy of the pterygopalatine fossa pertinent to the technique of maxillary nerve block at the foramen rotundum was investigated and the ability of inexperienced surgeons to apply the required angles of the injection ...
Maxillary infiltration anaesthesia by ropivacaine for upper third molar surgery
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2010)
The main purpose of this Study was to assess the clinical efficacy and haemodynamic effects of ropivacaine for infiltration anaesthesia in patients undergoing surgical removal of upper third molars. The safety profile of ...
Prevalence of human cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus in subgingival plaque at peri-implantitis, mucositis and healthy sites. A pilot study
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2011)
This study evaluated the prevalence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in peri-implantitis and mucositis sites and the correlation between herpesvirus and clinical parameters. Fifty-six dental ...
Lidocaine plus clonidine for maxillary infiltration anaesthesia: parameters of anaesthesia and vascular effects
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2008)
The local anaesthetic and haemodynamic parameters achieved by lidocaine with clonidine or epinephrine, administered for maxillary infiltration anaesthesia, were studied in 40 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists, ...
Genetic and epigenetic alterations in the tumour, tumour margins, and normal buccal mucosa of patients with oral cancer
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2018)
Despite adequate surgical resection, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) shows a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, which could be explained by the presence of molecular alterations in seemingly normal tumour margins ...
Effectiveness of dexamethasone and low-power laser in minimizing oedema after third molar surgery: a clinical trial
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2007)
Postoperative oedema is common following removal of impacted lower third molars. Several types of drug therapy (corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, enzymes) have been tried. The aim of this study was ...
