Mandibular Bone Block Graft For Localised Ridge Augmentation- A Case Report, Teena Selvaraj

Annual Research Symposium

Dental implants in the anterior mandible is a challenge for clinicians because of patients exacting esthetic demands and difficult pre-existing anatomy. The placement of endosteal implants requires adequate bone volume for successful osseointegration. When themorphology of the bone does not allow proper implant placement, there are various bone augmentation procedures like bone grafts, which may be autografts, xenografts, allografts or alloplasts aids in reconstruction of the residual alveolar ridge for ideal implant placement. Among various bone grafts, the autogenous bone graft is still the “gold standard” for bone augmentation procedures. The symphysis region can act as an excellent source of …

Estrogen Level, Osteopenia/Osteoporosis And Periodontal Status In Post Menopausal Women – A Comparative Evaluation, Dr Sanupa S. Madhavan, Dr Anjhana Narayanan

Annual Research Symposium

Osteopenia, Osteoporosis and periodontitis are diseases, which affect a large number of populations across the country and world. Both are silent diseases” which cause bone loss mediated by local and systemic factors. These two diseases also share some risk factors that may interfere with healing.. Estrogen deficiency is the dominant pathogenic factor for osteoporosis in women .Various reports also have linked estrogen deficiency and osteopenia/osteoporosis to increased oral bone resorption , attachment loss and tooth loss .The objective of the study is to analyse and evaluate the condition of periodontal status of twenty five osteopenic/osteoporotic postmenopausal women and their estrogen …

Root Analogue Implants- The New Route, Subhashini Balaguru

Annual Research Symposium

Dental implants are an excellent option for replacing missing teeth. Traditional implants have a cylindrical or tapered geometry with threads along the screw length. The lack of proper congruency between the implant and the socket bone can eventually lead to implant failure due to stability loss and failure in osseointegration. To overcome this problem, novel approaches are being evaluated to manufacture customized root implants. This is expected to reduce the bone and soft-tissue trauma and promote a better primary stability. They do not require bone drilling, sinus lifting, bone augmentation or other traumatic procedures.

Relationship Between Periodontal Disease And Coronary Heart Disease: A Bibliometric Analysis, Xiaowen Bo, Wenpeng Song

Annual Research Symposium

Periodontal disease (PD) and coronary heart disease (CHD) are both prevalent diseases worldwide and cause patients physical and mental suffering and a global burden. Recent studies have suggested a link between PD and CHD, but there is less research in this field from the perspective of bibliometrics. This study aimed to quantitatively analyze the literature on PD and CHD to summarize intellectual bases, research hotspots, and emerging trends and pave the way for future research.

Interplay Of Periodontal Bacterial Metabolites In The Progression Of Coronary Artery Disease: A System Biological Approach, Janakiraman V

Annual Research Symposium

Purpose:

The purpose of this study is to investigate the intricate relationship between periodontal disease (PD) and coronary artery disease (CAD), as evidenced by epidemiological associations. Metalloproteinase inhibitor (TIMP1) plays a pivotal role in cellular signaling, differentiation, cell death, and migration by binding to target metalloproteinases, forming complexes with other molecules (collagenases) to inactivate them. However, the expression of TIMP1 is reduced in both PD and CAD, leading to an upregulation of other metalloproteinases. This research explores the hypothesis that metabolites released from (Porphyromonas gingivalis), a prevalent bacterium in atherosclerotic patients, may inhibit TIMP1, thereby influencing CAD progression. …

Diagnostic Detail: Understanding The Impact Of Tooth Rotation In Correcting Mucogingival Defects, Trevor Simmonds Dds, Stephanie M. Chu Dmd, Mike Roig Dmd, Kristian T. Poventud Dmd

The New York State Dental Journal

Introduction: The subepithelial connective tissue graft (S-CTG) is the gold standard in achieving root coverage but is not without limitations. The Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM) is an alternative source that can compensate for the S-CTG’s limitations. Body: Severe recession type 1 (RT1) defects were treated with a combined approach of autogenous and allogeneic soft tissue grafting, optimizing the benefits of both types of materials, in order to achieve maximum root coverage (MRC). Conclusion: Identifying the anatomical limitations of gingival recession as it relates to tooth rotation and its impact on vascular supply will best prepare both the clinician and patient …

Protein Expression Of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Transfected On Green Fluorescent Protein Mrna And Collagen-Coated Titanium Disk, Wasamon Swangvong

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

New strategies for surface modification have been explored to promote osseointegration and osteogenesis, which are crucial factors for the success of titanium dental implants. Coating the titanium surface with mRNA encoding therapeutic growth factors may achieve these objectives. In our pilot study, we employed green fluorescent protein (GFP) mRNA as a model. Our investigation focused on determining whether titanium disks coated with GFP mRNA encapsulated with lipid nanoparticles and collagen Type I (GFP mRNA-Col) could enhance transfection in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), in comparison to titanium disks coated with GFP mRNA alone, without collagen. We tested various …

Influence Of Scaling And Root Planing With Minocycline Microspheres On Clinical Outcomes Of Patients With Periodontitis, Nupoor Sandeep Kulkarni

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Background: Scaling and root planning (SRP) has been established as a “gold-standard” non-surgical initial treatment for periodontitis. Along with SRP, some systemic adjuncts like systemic antibiotics were used in the past to gain maximum benefits of SRP by reducing the need for further periodontal surgeries. Due to some drawbacks of systemic antibiotic use, like “transient antibiotic resistance”, “non-adherence” and “insufficient concentrations in the periodontal pockets to be clinically effective”, there was a shift towards the use of local antibiotic adjuncts to SRP like minocycline, tetracycline, chlorhexidine etc. Minocycline is a semi-synthetic tetracycline derivative which is available in a powder form, …
