Injerto óseo simultáneo a la colocación de implantes: a propósito de un caso
2005
Los defectos óseos a nivel de la cresta alveolar mandibular dificultan la colocación de los implantes dentales en el lugar idóneo. La reconstrucción quirúrgica mediante injertos de hueso autólogo es una opción que permite la fijación de los implantes de manera estética y funcional. Presentamos un paciente con grandes pérdidas óseas mandibulares, secundarias a procesos inflamatorios periodontales. Se realizó la reconstrucción del proceso alveolar mandibular, empleando injertos en bloque, tipo onlay, tomados de la mandíbula. Los injertos fueron estabilizados al colocar los implantes a través de ellos, consiguiéndose además una buena fijación primaria de los mismos. Tras dos años de seguimient…
Results of a dental care protocol for mentally handicapped patients set in a primary health care area in Spain
2007
Objective: Disabled people have the same right as other people to receive the health care they need, but they sometimes have difficulties to achieve it. In Castilla y Leon it has come into effect a law to guarantee Primary and Secondary Care coordination to provide dental treatment under sedation or anaesthesia to mentally disabled people who need it. Our aim is to evaluate the results of the implementation of such a law through a specific protocol in our health setting. Study design: Descriptive, made in a Health Area over a year, on mentally disabled people who were sent to hospital for treatment under anaesthesia after Primary Dental Care Units assessment. It has been studied the age, ge…
Regional odontodysplasia of the deciduous and permanent teeth associated with eruption disorders: A case report
2008
WOS: 000259667500007 PubMed: 18758400 Regional odontodysplasia (RO) is an unusual, non-hereditary anomaly of the dental hard tissues with characteristic clinical, radiographic and histological findings. Clinically, RO affects the primary and permanent dentition in the maxilla and mandible or both jaws. Radiographically, there is a lack of contrast between the enamel dentin, both of which are less radiopaque than unaffected counterparts. Additionally, enamel and dentin layers are thin, giving the teeth a "ghost-like" appearance. Histologically, areas of hypocalcified enamel are visible and enamel prisms appear irregular in direction. Coronal dentin is fibrous, consisting of clefts and a redu…
Cirugia de revisión en la lumbociatica
1987
The author presents eleven personal cases in which it has been necessary a revrsion surgery of the previous intervention for lumbar disk hernia, in order to have relapsed symptoms after the free assymptomatic interval. The common finding at surgery was a membrane flavectomy with or without a disk hernia.
Graft-versus-host disease, an eight case report and literature review.
2006
Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a common complication in bone marrow transplant (BMT) patients. It is characterized by systemic and oral cavity alterations. Depending on the timing of lesions, GVHD is classified as acute or chronic. Alterations in the oral cavity are lichenoid reticular lesions, erythema, ulcerations, and xerostomia. Sporadically, mucocele and pyogenic granulomas can be present. Aim: To describe GVHD oral manifestations in eight allogenic BMT patients, and discuss GVHD and drug-immunosuppresion associated lesions diagnosis and treatment. Study design: For a year, we examined the oral mucosa of eight consecutive allogenic BMT patients attending the Dermatology outpatient…
Uso de las coronas telescópicas en el tratamiento de un paciente adulto con fisura labiopalatina: Puesta al día de la etiología y el tratamiento
2006
La fisura labiopalatina es una de las malformaciones congénitas craneofaciales más importantes a tener en cuenta por el odontólogo general debido a su alta incidencia y a su elevada repercusión en la cavidad oral. Sus causas se deben a factores genéticos y predominantemente a factores ambientales, haciendo su aparición ya en el período embrionario. El sexo masculino se encuentra más afectado, en una relación de 7:3. La asociación más frecuente es el labio leporino unilateral total con fisura palatina, que es el caso que nos atañe. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 20 años que acude a nuestra consulta demandando una solución estética a su situación dental. El tratamiento efectuado al pacien…
Evaluation of the indication for surgical extraction of third molars according to the oral surgeon and the primary care dentist : Experience in the M…
2008
Introduction. Third molar extraction is the most frequent procedure in oral surgery. The present study evaluates the indication of third molar extraction as established by the primary care dentist (PCD) and the oral surgeon, and compares the justification for extraction with the principal reason for patient consultation. Patients and method. A descriptive study was made of 319 patients subjected to surgical removal of a third molar in the context of the Master of Oral Surgery and Implantology (Barcelona University Dental School, Barcelona, Spain) between July 2004 and March 2005. The following parameters were evaluated: sex, age, molar, type of impaction, position according to the classific…
Prostatic adenocarcinoma with mandibular metastatic lesion : case report
2007
Metastatic lesions of primary tumors, which originate in different parts of the body, comprise almost 1 % of different types of oral cancers. These lesions can affect either bones or soft tissues in the maxillofacial region. Whenever the maxillofacial area is affected, the most common location is in the molar region of the mandible. The clinical presentation of mandibular metastasis follows a clinical pattern characterized by irradiated dental pain in the third molar region. The most frequent sign is parethesia of the area innervated by the mandibular alveolar dental nerve. Differential diagnosis and treatment of these patients can be extremely difficult because there a number of pathologic…
Mandibular odontogenic myxoma : reconstructive considerations by means of the vascularized fibular free flap
2006
The odontogenic myxoma is a rare entity located in mandible and upper maxilla. Due to its local aggressiveness, wide surgical excision is mandatory. Several surgical techniques have been described for the reconstruction of segmental mandibular defects. In comparison with other free flaps, the vascularized free fibular flap (VFFF) supports the longest amount of bone and, due to the nature of the vascular supply a complete freedom in location of the osteotomy is present. A precise mandibular arc can be performed following bone resection. We suggest the performance of the ?in situ? VFFF technique in order to recreate mandibular contour by means of several osteotomies, while the pedicle is stil…
Stem cells from human dental pulp and apical papilla: Morphological and synchrotron radiation analysis
2021
Background Dental Mesenchymal stem cells has prompted great for cell-based therapeutics. But no one knows for sure what the true potential of these cells, since most of the studies were done in isolation, using as source, different donors or different cell processing conditions. Material and Methods An enriched population of cells positive for CD146, STRO-1, and CD90 was isolated of third molars teeth indicated for extraction of patient with of 16 years old. Analysis of cell kinetics, and subcellular tests were performed to assess the presence of minor and trace elements by using synchrotron radiation x-ray fluorescence microscopy. Results In the cell kinetics assays, the enriched populatio…
