Varied factors, whether intrinsic or extrinsic, may lead to a decrease in the bone volume of the jaws. Trauma and pathology can be listed as examples of such factors. The aim of this study is to present the osteogenic ...

Mandibular reconstructions are complex clinical pictures that require careful planning for functional and aesthetic outcomes. Virtual surgical planning and 3D printing are ideal to achieve a predictable result. Through ...

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a neoplasia characterized by the proliferation of plasmacytoid cells, which produce abnormal immunoglobulins. It frequently creates local and systemic complications such as pathologic fractures and ...

This paper describes 3 patients of off-label use of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) in the reconstruction of mandibular continuity defects. In the first patient, rhBMP-2 was associated with iliac crest bone graft ...

Atrophic mandible fractures are frequently a challenge to stabilize. This study evaluated, through mechanical testing in vitro, the number of locking screws that is sufficient to withstand loading when applied with a locking ...
