Summary: The study aims to evaluate the accuracy of static computer-assisted implant surgery (s-CAIS) in edentulous patients using two different evaluation techniques and investigate their comparability. The results showed that intraoral scanning (IOS) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) provided similar results in evaluating the accuracy of s-CAIS in edentulous patients, except for the angle. Hence, CBCT is still recommended for accurate evaluation of computer-assisted implant placement in fully edentulous patients.

Summary: This study evaluated the accuracy of dental implant placement using a dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery (dCAIS) system and a freehand approach, and compared the patients' perception and quality of life with the two approaches. The results showed that the dCAIS system significantly improved implant placement accuracy compared to the freehand approach, but it also increased the surgical time and did not improve patient satisfaction or reduce postoperative pain.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of different approaches for zygomatic implant (ZI) placement in patients with severe maxillary problems. The results showed that dynamic computer-aided surgery (d-CAIS) and modified static computer-aided surgery (s-CAIS) had clinically acceptable outcomes, while the conventional s-CAIS had the highest deviation values. Surgeons should be aware of potential deviations and complications regardless of the selected approach.

Summary: This study investigated the attitudes and competences of general dentists in maintaining dental implants. The results showed that while most dentists acknowledged the importance of implant maintenance and had positive attitudes, a significant proportion were unwilling to engage in this task and lacked essential competences. The main obstacles identified were insufficient knowledge and lack of a properly equipped clinical environment.

Summary: A retrospective cohort study found that endoscope-assisted medial orbital wall fracture repair via the retro-caruncular approach (rc-EAMOWFR) is more clinically useful than no surgery (NS) in the treatment of isolated medial orbital wall fractures (IMOWF). The surgery reduces the occurrence of late enophthalmos (LE), but may increase the risk of retrobulbar hemorrhage (RH).

Summary: Submental intubation (SI) has been used for almost four decades to avoid tracheostomy in facial trauma cases. This study aimed to estimate the frequency of complications and identify associated variables. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients with facial trauma and SI. The results showed that smoking, moderate to high gingival inflammation, and postoperative use of chlorhexidine mouthwash were associated with complications. These findings could contribute to the development of effective guidelines for preventing complications.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of oral-maxillofacial or craniofacial plastic surgery residents and trauma surgery residents in the treatment of craniomaxillofacial fractures using the coronal scalp approach. The results showed no significant differences between the two groups in terms of length of hospital stay and coronal flap-related complications. Therefore, trainees from any surgical specialties can achieve partial independence in the treatment of CMF fractures.

Summary: The aim of this study was to compare the stability of augmented bone using different ratios of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) with hydroxyapatite/beta-tricalcium phosphate. The results showed that the 70/30 BCP ratio was significantly better in maintaining facial thickness and stability of horizontal dimensions of the augmented site compared to the 60/40 BCP ratio. BCP grafts with both ratios showed comparable outcomes for contour augmentation simultaneously with implant placement.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the storage time and appropriate storage temperature of the CS/BCP/TSA scaffold. The results showed that different storage times and temperatures did not affect the properties of the scaffold, except for the loss of bioactivity at 25°C and 4°C after 3 and 7 days, respectively. Therefore, freezing conditions should be used to preserve the long-term stability of the TSA.

Summary: Recent research has found that the contour of the prosthesis and the vertical height of the peri-implant mucosa play important roles in the long-term health of the peri-implant tissue. Overcontouring of the prosthesis has been linked to a higher risk of peri-implantitis, while reduced soft tissue height can lead to bone loss and other complications. This study aims to establish the relationship between tissue vertical height and prosthesis contour, and suggests considering subcrestal placement of the implant in case of deficient vertical height.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the correlation between Mucosal Emergence Angle (MEA) and peri-implant tissue mucositis. Clinical and radiographic examinations were carried out on 103 posterior bone level implants in 47 patients. The results showed a significant correlation between MEA and Bleeding on Probing, with higher risks of bleeding when MEA angles were greater than or equal to 30 degrees. Therefore, it is advisable to maintain a narrow MEA angle whenever possible.

Summary: This systematic review examined the effectiveness of autogenous dentin block grafts for alveolar ridge augmentation. Dentin blocks showed similar vertical bone gain and significantly higher width gain compared to bone blocks. The resorption rates and occurrence of complications were similar between the two groups. Autogenous dentin blocks could be a possible alternative to established bone augmentation techniques, but further studies are needed to confirm its efficacy.

Summary: This scoping review aimed to evaluate the outcome measures used to assess the accuracy of Computer Assisted Implant Surgery (CAIS) and review the evidence supporting training and education using CAIS. The results showed that the accuracy of CAIS has been mainly assessed through surrogate measures. Recent meta-analyses suggest that dynamic CAIS may have an advantage in reducing angular deviation. The combination of static and dynamic CAIS may offer higher accuracy. Dynamic CAIS is suitable for novice surgeons and may have added value as an educational tool for implant surgery.
