    Combined use of alveolar distraction osteogenesis and segmental osteotomy in anterior vertical ridge augmentation
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2015) Oncu, Elif; Isik, Kubilay; Alaaddinoglu, E. Emine; Uckan, Sina
    INTRODUCTION: Vertical defects of the anterioral veolar ridge are challenging cases in implant dentistry. Various techniques, such as onlay bone grafting, segmental osteotomy (SO) oral veolar distraction osteogenesis (ADO), have been suggested to manage those situations. ADO has an advantage of being capable of enhancing both hard and soft tissue simultaneously. PRESENTATION OF CASE: One of the possible complications of ADO is rotation ortilting the transport segment (TS). In this report, we present a 30-year old woman who had a severe anterior vertical deficiency. ADO was started to manage the case, but advancement of the TS lagged on the left side and the segment rotated. A SO was planned and the lagged side was corrected. Two years after the surgery, hard and soft tissue gains were found to be preserved. DISCUSSION: Vertical alveolar bone deficiencies are challenging cases for dental implantology. Alveolar DO promotes soft tissue along with hard tissue, and the bone regeneration process and shows lower infection rates and greater stability over the long term. However, the technique has some disadvantages and can lead to complications, such as breaking of the distraction device, nerve injury or paresthesia, fracture of transport bone, hematoma, wound dehiscence, severe bleeding, and even jaw fractures. Deviation of the TS from the distraction path is another undesired situation. The rigidity of the device, the width of the mucosa, the volume of the transport and anchor segments, and the amount of augmentation can affect vector deviation. CONCLUSION: We suggest that SO can be used in similar cases in which TS could not be distracted on a straight vector line. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier Ltd. on behalf of Surgical Associates Ltd.

    The Effect of Platelet-Rich Fibrin on Implant Stability
    (Quintessence Publishing Co Inc, 2015) Oncu, Elif; Alaaddinoglu, E. Emine
    Purpose: Achieving accelerated implant osseointegration could make immediate or early loading of implants more predictable. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is frequently used to accelerate soft and hard tissue healing. The activated platelets in PRF release growth factors, resulting in cellular proliferation, collagen synthesis, and osteoid production. The aim of this study was to compare the stability of dental implants inserted in a one-stage surgical protocol with or without PRF application. Materials and Methods: Twenty healthy patients with adequate alveolar bone and two or more adjacent missing teeth extracted at least 6 months previously were included in this study. A minimum of two tapered implants (Ankylos, Dentsply/Friadent) were placed in each patient. After surgical preparation of the implant sockets, PRF that had been prepared preoperatively was placed randomly into one of the sockets (PRF+). The acellular plasma portion of PRF was used to wet the implant placed into the PRF-coated socket. Resonance frequency measurements were made after implant placement and at 1 week and 1 month postoperatively. Results: Mean implant stability quotients (ISQs) of the PRF+ implants was 69.3 +/- 10.5, and mean ISQs for the PRF-implants was 64.5 +/- 12.2 at the end of the first week. The mean ISQs at 4 weeks postoperatively were 77.1 +/- 7.1 for the PRF+ group and 70.5 +/- 7.7 for the PRF-group. Conclusion: In this study, PRF application increased implant stability during the early healing period, as evidenced by higher ISQ values. Simple application of this material seems to provide faster osseointegration.
