Focal cemento-osseous dysplasia in the maxilla mimicking periapical granuloma
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 1999)
A case of focal cemento-osseous dysplasia of the maxilla in a 19-year-old man is reported. Clinically, the lesion resembled periapical pathosis of odontogenic origin. The clinical and histopathologic features of cemento-osseous ...
Functional endoscopic sinus surgery as an adjunctive treatment for closure of oroantral fistulae: a retrospective analysis
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2010)
Objective. The objective of this study was to report results of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for treatment of chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin in a series of patients with oroantral fistulae (OAF). ...
An in vitro study of temperature changes in type 4 bone during implant placement: bone condensing versus bone drilling
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2011)
Objective. The aim of this study was to compare changes in temperature of the surrounding bone at various osteotomy depths during implant site preparation by bone condensing and by bone drilling as well as the dynamics of ...
Bacterial penetration of restored cavities
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2001)
The aim of this study was to assess the quality of the marginal seals of 7 restoratives by means of a bacterial penetration test in vitro. Sixty intact premolars and third molars that were scheduled for extraction were ...
The therapeutic use of botulinum toxin in cervical and maxillofacial conditions: an evidence-based review
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2007)
Introduction. The role of botulinum toxin as a therapeutic agent for several conditions is expanding. We sought to determine if botulinum toxin is safe and effective in treating patients with cervical dystonia and maxillofacial ...
Effects of radiation therapy on craniofacial and dental implants: a review of the literature
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2009)
Objectives. The theories of the effects of radiation therapy on craniofacial and dental implants have been challenged by new models. Animal and clinical studies differ on the importance of dose effect and implant location ...

Maxillary sinus floor augmentation: comparing osteotome with lateral window immediate and delayed implant placements. An interim report
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2008)
Objective. A retrospective study was performed to observe clinical outcomes of dental implants placed in augmented maxillary sinuses using an osteotome or a lateral approach technique with synchronous or delayed implant ...
The use of finite element analysis to model bone-implant contact with basal implants
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2008)
Objective. The purpose of this study was to develop a model that accurately represents the interface between bone and basal implants throughout the healing process. Study Design. The model was applied to the biological ...
