Tomographic study of Jaw bone changes in patients with bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis
2020
Background Bisphosphonates (BP) are synthetic pyrophosphate-like substances with antiresorptive properties and specifically affect osteoclastic activity. In 2007, the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) defined diagnostic criteria for Osteonecrosis of the Jaws Associated with Bisphosponates (BRONJ). BRONJ is mainly diagnosed by clinical features, but the detection of early bone changes by imaging may help prevent and better understand the disease. The objective of this study was to evaluate maxillary changes in CBCT in patients using BP. Material and methods All included patients were diagnosed with osteonecrosis and received bisphosphonate drugs in the last ten …
Two-dimensional radiographs versus cone-beam computed tomography in planning mini-implant placement: A systematic review
2022
This study aimed to compare two-dimensional radiographs and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images for mini-implant planning.A search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar electronic databases according to PIRD strategy, on September 11, 2021. In vivo studies that compared two-dimensional imaging with CBCT for mini-implant planning were selected. The methodological quality of each study was assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool.The initial search identified 441 papers. Five studies were added following a manual research. Of the total 446 studies, 40 were selected after title evaluation, 29 remained after abstract evaluation, and 11 were left af…
