    Abstract Stafne's bone defect is a developmental anatomic bone defect in the lingual side of the mandible in the area of the mandibular angle that is filled with proliferation or translocation of adjacent structures such as salivary gland tissue. The etiology is still undefined, and two hypotheses are proposed: one is the glandular related to the submandibular or sublingual glands and the second is ischemic that affects the vascularization of the mandibular lingual. Usually, Stafne's bone defect is accidentally detected on panoramic radiographs during dental treatments as a well-limited radiolucency image with a clear peripheral regular condensation border, located below the mandibular canal. The differential diagnosis includes traumatic bone cyst, odontogenic and nonodontogenic cystic lesions, nonossifying fibroma, focal osteoporotic bone marrow defect, and other lesions. A case of Stafne's bone defect on a 60-year-old male patient extending in the lingual posterior part of the mandibular region was presented. The panoramic radiograph revealed a well-limited radiolucency image with a clear peripheral regular condensation border, located below the mandibular canal. The lesion was discovered in a routine radiographic exam: the cone beam computed tomography gave us more details about the localization, the shape and size, and the relation with the mandibular canal, and the magnetic resonance imaging identifies the nature of the inside soft tissue. The final diagnosis was a Stafne's bone defect resulting of a depression of the lingual cortical plate filled with expansion of the submandibular gland.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate retrospectively at 10 years the marginal bone levels around implants located in healed ridges or in extraction sockets and loaded immediately with provisional crowns fixed in prefabricated abutments.
    Materials and methods: Forty-two implants were placed in 36 patients needing single tooth replacement. Implants were inserted either in healed ridges (group 1) or in extraction sockets (group 2) and loaded immediately with prefabricated abutments. Two implants were lost during the healing period from group 2. The bone level around the implant shoulder was calculated mesially and distally on each implant using intraoral radiographs after crown cementation and 1, 3, 5, and 10 years following loading.
    Results: On the 10-year follow-up report, 36 implants were available for the clinical and radiologic evaluation. Besides the two implants lost during the osseointegration period, no implant loss was documented over the 5- to 10-year observation period. The average bone loss after implant and crown cementation was 0.266 ± 0.176 mm for 1 year, 0.194 ± 0.172 mm for 5 years, and 0.198 ± 0.165 mm for 10 years in healed ridges and 0.267 ± 0.161 mm for 1 year, 0.213 ± 0.185 mm for 5 years, and 0.287 ± 0.194 mm for 10 years in extraction sockets. Three crowns (in group 1) and one crown (in group 2) were replaced for esthetic reasons.
    Conclusion: The outcome of this study revealed that in both groups, the responses of marginal bone were similar. Immediate placement of the definitive prefabricated abutment in an immediate loading protocol appears to conserve marginal bone around the implant neck.

    Abstract Aim: The objective of this study was to assess marginal bone level around single implants inserted in fresh extraction sockets in the anterior maxillary region and instantly restored with computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing customized temporary crowns cemented on the final abutment.
    Materials and methods: A total of 20 patients (15 females and 5 males, with a mean age of 30 years), where 20 were placed in fresh extraction sockets. After raising a full-thickness flap, atraumatic extraction was performed the implant site was prepared and fixtures were stabilized on the palatal bone wall. The implant location was immediately transmitted to the prepared master model using the pick-up impression coping seated in the surgical guide template. Prefabricated abutments were used as the final abutment on the master model, scanned and the crown was planned using computer-aided manufacturing customized software. Later on 8th weeks, abutments were torqued as per the manufacturer's recommendation, and the final crowns were cemented. Using personalized intraoral radiographs marginal bone level was evaluated mesially and distally to the implant shoulder as a reference at implant placement, 8 weeks, 1, 3, 5, and 10 years after loading.
    Results: Wholly implants were osteo-integrated positively after 10 years of practical loading, but only 18 were available for clinical and radiological follow-up, and 2 patients with two implants were excluded from the study due to relocation abroad without any implant failure. The average marginal bone loss (MBL) in the current report was 0.16 ± 0.167 mm at crown cementation, 0.275 ± 0.171 mm after 1 year, 0.265 ± 0.171 mm after 3 years, 0.213 ± 0.185 mm after 5 years, and 0.217 ± 0.194 mm at 10 years.
    Conclusion: The strategy of inserting and not removing the final abutment at the time of implant placement facilitates the establishment of adequate attachment of both soft and hard tissues to the abutment surface, ensuring uninterrupted organization of tissue architecture and offers advantages in helping maintain soft tissue maturation and preventing marginal bone level.
    Clinical significance: Immediately loaded implants in freshly extracted sockets lead to a significant reduction in marginal ridge resorption. The use of a temporary crown on a prefabricated abutment, exclusive of successive abutment manipulation, proved effective in preserving the primarily founding blood clot and served as a prototype for shaping the soft tissue around the previously wounded gum.

    Abstract In 2017, the World Health Organization classified the odontogenic keratocyst as a developmental odontogenic cyst. The posterior parts of the mandible, especially the angle and the ramus, are the most involved sites. Due to their high recurrence rate, keratocysts are managed surgically with careful complete excision. Additionally, chemical solutions such as Carnoy's solution, modified Carnoy's solution, and 5-Fluorouracil have been associated with surgical treatment. Diode lasers generate diverse wavelengths that have photothermal and photochemical special properties and could have some effects on the lining epithelium remnants of the cyst. In this paper, we discuss a case of mandibular recurrent odontogenic keratocyst treated with 5-Fluorouracil topical application after enucleation and diode laser application with 18 years follow-up and teeth replacement with dental implant. 5-Fluorouracil and diode laser have been found to be very effective in the treatment of keratocysts.

    Abstract Among developmental odontogenic cysts, the dentigerous type is the second most prevailing one. It is a benign intraosseous lesion commonly affecting the mandibular region. Dentigerous cysts present a high prevalence in children as they can be caused by the eruption of permanent teeth or the infection of deciduous ones. The adopted treatment modalities include enucleation (cystectomy), marsupialization, and decompression. Decompression maintains communication between the cyst and the oral medium through a sutured fixed device, namely an acrylic stent or a pretrimmed disposable suction tube. In the mixed dentition, the extraction of the affected primary teeth and the decompression approach is recommended, especially since children and parents are more tolerant of conservative treatments. We report in this study, a case of a 9-year-old boy complaining of a painful swelling in the left mandibular region. Intraoral and radiological examination revealed an expansion of the buccal and lingual cortical plates associated with teeth #73, #74, and #75 and a well-limited, unilocular radiolucent image extending from the distal aspect of tooth #31 to the mesial aspect of tooth #36 involving the crowns of the unerupted teeth #33, #34, and #35. The preliminary diagnosis was in favor of a dentigerous cyst. The treatment was to extract the deciduous teeth and to use a sterile tube for decompression. The patient was followed up for 5 years, a complete remission of the cyst was observed and the teeth #33, #34, and #35 re-erupted normally on the mandibular arch.

    Abstract Is to measure the peripheral and internal gap at the implant-abutment interface of an implant system connected to its original or compatible non-original abutments. Twenty implants were assembled with four different types of abutments having the same conical internal interface. All abutments were considered compatible with Tx Astra Tech Implant SystemTM. Four groups were created and each group of five implants was connected to a different abutment; Ti DesignTM abutments (group A), DualTM abutments (group B), Natea plusTM abutments (group C) and ImplanetTM abutments (group D). The peripheral gaps between implant and abutment were observed in three points facing the flat surface of the abutment. The implant-abutment assemblies were then embedded in resin and grinded in the mesio-distal direction of the scalloped abutment margin using a diamond disk at very low speed and under water-cooling. The inner aspect of the implant abutment interface was observed in three different points, on the coronal border of the connection, in the middle area and on the apical border of the implant-abutment interface. The mean gap width was 0.543 ± 0.09 μm for group A and, respectively, 0.708 ± 0.1232 μm, 0.726 ± 0.0891 μm and 0.818 ± 0.0851 μm for groups B, C and D. When comparing group, A to B and C, a highly significant difference in numbers was obvious while an even higher variation was observed with group D. External and internal fit of components is better when using original components.

    Abstract Benign mesenchymal odontogenic tumors are lesions derived from the mesenchymal components of the tooth-forming apparatus and are consequently found within the jawbone. Benign fibro-osseous tumors are part of this category of lesions in which normal bone is substituted, initially by fibrous tissue and within time become infiltrated by osteoid and cementoid elements. They are asymptomatic, slow-growing lesions and remain undiagnosed until swelling of the face becomes prominent and they share similar radiological characteristics. Herein, we report three cases of ossifying fibroma, cemento-osseous fibroma and periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia and analyze all the correlating factors, clinical history, radiological and histological features, intraoperative appearance, and treatment with a 3-year follow-up period. Despite the advances in the identification of these pathologies, clinicians still face difficulties in their classification and the diagnosis due to overlap in both histological and radiographic findings. An accurate final diagnosis is essential for appropriate treatment and an informative prognosis.

    Abstract Sinus lift augmentation techniques, lateral or crestal approaches, have been well documented, with bone substitute graft, or without bone material, with immediate or delayed implant placement as a treatment option for the atrophic maxilla in the posterior area. However, the sinus lift procedures performed in the presence of cysts, mucoceles, mucous retention cysts (MRCs), and antral pseudo-cysts could mainly decrease the sinus cavity volume and could increase the possibility of ostium obstruction and might lead to infection followed by failure of the grafting procedure. A radiological assessment should be made with computerized tomography (CT) or cone-beam CT to evaluate the remaining bone volume and to detect any pathology in the sinus. Different techniques were described in the literature for sinus lifting and bone grafting in patients with cysts. For some authors, cysts should be treated before sinus grafting and six months later, the procedure could be performed. For others, sinus lifting can be performed without lesion removal. At this time, controversy exists regarding the decision on whether lesions must be removed/aspirated or not before sinus grafting. In this study, we report a case where an MRC was aspirated and instantaneously, the sinus membrane was lifted and grafted, and implants were installed with 1-year follow-up after loading. Identifying lesions in the maxillary sinus is essential before planning any type of sinus augmentation and implant placement.

    Abstract Aim: This paper aims to present an alveolar ridge preservation technique, using an autologous punch formed of hard and soft tissues harvested from the tuberosity area.
    Materials and methods: Ten residual sockets in the anterior maxilla were filled with a punch of hard and soft tissues harvested from the tuberosity area. Clinical and radiographical data were collected at the surgical extraction time 0 (T0) and 5 months during implant placement (T1), from clinical and radiological measurements using cone-beam computed tomography scans and periapical radiographs. Core biopsy was harvested during implant placement for histological and histomorphometrical analysis.
    Results: Clinically, the alveolar ridge presented a mean width of 10.3 mm before extraction which decreased to 8.85 mm at T1, where the mean horizontal loss is 1.45 mm (standard deviation [SD] 1.03 mm). The initial ridge mean height was 11.25 mm and increased to 12.85 mm after 5 months, where the mean vertical gain is 1.6 mm (SD 0.65 mm). The radiological evaluation shows a reduction in the horizontal dimension with a mean of 1 mm; however, the sockets show stability in the vertical dimensions. Histology showed a new lamellar bone formation with some areas of woven bone. Histomorphometric analysis showed that the percentage of new bone formed was 42.44 ± 5.54% and 48.62 ± 8.66% of the connective tissue and 8.94 ± 5.28% of the residual autogenous bone.
    Conclusion: At T1, the extraction sockets showed significantly lower vertical and horizontal bone changes, compared to T0. The described preservation punch technique resulted in greater stability in the horizontal and vertical dimensions after 5 months.
    Clinical significance: Clinical and radiological results show that the punch of hard and soft tissue graft reduces hard and soft tissue dimensional alteration after tooth extraction. In addition, using autogenous bone showed histological new bone formation.

    Abstract Injectable dermal fillers are widely used for facial rejuvenation; they help reshape the facial contours by treating volume loss due to aging changes. Facial fillers may become infected following a dental infection. In this report, we present a case of a 44-year-old female patient who presented with a swelling in her upper right buccal region following dental treatment of her second maxillary right premolar. After a thorough history, clinical, and radiological examinations, the diagnosis of infected dermal filler was made. The lesion was treated by association of two antibiotics (ciprofloxacin IM and clindamycin tablets 300 mg), and a complete healing was observed two months after the end of the dental treatments.
