Predicting Death in Patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Tongue
2019
Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) accounts for 40% of all squamous cell carcinoma involving the mucosal surface of the oral cavity. TSCC is highly invasive and aggressive and, nowadays, TNM staging system is considered the gold standard in predicting patients’ outcomes. [...]
Development of a Prognostic Model for Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma

One of the objectives of current researches is to be able to customize the treatment of cancer patients. This can be possible only by better stratifying patients based on the most significant prognostic factors [1]. [...]
Post-orthodontic position of lower incisors and gingival recession: A retrospective study
2017
Background To evaluate if changes in lower incisor position following orthodontic treatment are correlated with development of gingival recessions. Material and methods Pre- and post-treatment digital models and lateral cephalograms of 22 subjects were collected retrospectively. The clinical crown length, gingival scallop, and papilla height of the central lower incisor were measured along with the cephalometric incisor's inclination, the distance from the mandibular plane, and the distance between the Infradentale and Menton points. Statistical correlations between gingival and cephalometric variables were studied. In addition, two groups were defined based on the post-treatment incisor in…

The Association between Tooth Loss and Alzheimer's Disease: a Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis of Case Control Studies.
2019
Alzheimer’s disease is classified as a neurodegenerative condition, a heterogeneous group of illnesses characterized by the slow and progressive loss of one or more functions of the nervous system. Its incidence tends to increase gradually from 65 years of age, up to a prevalence of 4% at age 75. The loss of dental elements is more prevalent in this population and might negatively affect the masticatory capacity, quality of life, and pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. This study investigated problems related to oral health and the loss of dental elements in elderly patients suffering from Alzheimer’s and considered whether local inflammatory processes could affect the et…
Determinants of maxillary canine impaction : retrospective clinical and radiographic study
2017
Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate determinants of maxillary canine impaction taking into account both canine position related variables and the pattern of facial growth. Material and Methods: A retrospective clinical and radiographic analysis was carried out on 109 patients aged between 9 and 10 years at the time of first evaluation. At baseline, SN-GoMe angle, the interincisal angle, the canine angle a and the canine distance d were used to characterize canine location and vertical facial growth. At the end of a two years follow up period the eruption state of each canine of each patient was recorded and accordingly classified as erupted or impacted on a clinical and radiogr…
