Summary: The study found that iliac bone graft undergoes rapid resorption when used as an onlay graft before implant insertion, while the resorption for sinus lifting is relatively lower. This is crucial in determining the optimal time for implant insertion after graft healing to improve implant survival.

Summary: This systematic review analyzed the use of titanium meshes in bone regeneration, showing an average bone gain of 4.3 mm, high survival and success rates of implants, but a significant risk of mesh exposure.

Summary: This study developed prediction models based on CBCT to estimate the bone graft volume needed for sinus floor elevation (SFE) based on the augmentation site, elevation height, and sinus width. The prediction models showed high consistency with the measured values.

Summary: This study investigates the application of additive manufacturing techniques in dental implant bone augmentation, using selective laser melting titanium mesh plates. Through surgical simulation on 14 patients, it was found that the SLM titanium mesh plate showed good adaptation with bone occupancy greater than 90%. The technique was considered useful in achieving successful bone augmentation.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of using bone-block substitute materials with or without recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) on new bone formation. The results showed that rhBMP-2 enhanced new bone formation in all experimental groups, with DBBM blocks resulting in greater new bone area compared to synthetic blocks at 2 weeks. However, there was no significant difference in new bone formation between DBBM and synthetic blocks with rhBMP-2 at 12 weeks.

Summary: CBCT provides advantages for evaluating acute small bone and joint trauma by reliably detecting and excluding extremity fractures and related findings. Additional findings change therapy in one third of patients, suggesting substantial clinical impact.

Summary: The study found that L- and I-shaped DBBM-C were more beneficial in terms of horizontal augmentation stability compared to DBBM after a 5-month healing period in peri-implant dehiscence defects. Early postoperative discomfort, wound healing outcomes, and periotest values did not differ significantly between the different groups.

Summary: The study evaluated a porous titanium implant prepared using EBM technology with a composite scaffold containing temperature-sensitive collagen and rhBMP9 to enhance osteogenesis in rabbit femoral defects. In vitro experiments demonstrated cell proliferation, release of temperature-sensitive collagen to rhBMP9, and osteogenesis-inducing effect on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, while in vivo evaluation showed good biocompatibility and enhanced osteogenesis around the porous scaffolds.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the radiographic outcomes of equine-derived collagenated xenogeneic bone blocks (CXBB) and autogenous bone blocks (ABB) used for lateral alveolar ridge augmentation. Results showed significant gains in bone thickness with both methods, but CXBB led to vertical bone loss while ABB resulted in vertical bone gain.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the correlation between Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) techniques through a systematic review. The results show a strong correlation between DEXA and CBCT values, indicating that CBCT scans can be used to assess bone density and fracture risk.

Summary: This study found that extraction of the first premolar in female adult patients tends to increase the size of the oropharynx and cause posterior movement of the hyoid bone. However, for patients with a narrow oropharynx who have skeletal class II and hyperdivergent patterns, premolar extraction does not negatively affect oropharyngeal size or hyoid bone position. The differences in oropharyngeal changes between moderate retraction and maximum retraction patients were not significant.

Summary: The study demonstrated that primary bone augmentation using xenograft blocks infused with BMP-2 or autogenous bone blocks led to similar results regarding implant survival and 3D marginal soft tissue contours. Both groups showed excellent implant survival rates and stable marginal hard tissue levels at 3 years. The clinical stability of both soft and hard tissues was also observed in both groups.
