Objectives: This study sought to investigate the positioning of the posterior superior alveolar artery in relation to the performance of the maxillary sinus bone graft procedure in a Korean population. Materials and Methods: We identified the position of the posterior superior alveolar artery relative to 93 maxillary sinuses in 58 patients and determined the distance from the inferior border of the artery in the premolar and molar areas to the alveolar ridge and sinus floor. Results: The mean distance from the alveolar ridge to the posterior superior alveolar artery in the dentate group ($20.62{\pm}3.05mm$ in the premolar region, $17.50{\pm}2.84mm$ in the molar region) was greater than as compared to the edentulous group ($18.83{\pm}2.79mm$ in the premolar region, $15.50{\pm}1.64mm$ in the molar region), and this difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In contrast, there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) between the mean distance from the sinus floor to the posterior superior alveolar artery in the dentate group ($8.21{\pm}2.79mm$ in the premolar region, $7.52{\pm}2.07mm$ in the molar region) or in the edentulous group ($7.75{\pm}3.31mm$ in the premolar region, $7.97{\pm}2.31mm$ in the molar region). Conclusion: Prior to surgery, it is important to evaluate the position of the posterior superior maxillary artery by using computed tomography scans. The premolar area is safer than the molar area for performing the maxillary sinus bone graft without bleeding.

Purpose: In the anterior maxilla, hard and soft tissue augmentations are sometimes required to meet esthetic and functional demands. In such cases, primary soft tissue closure after bone grafting procedures is indispensable for a successful outcome. This report describes a simple method for soft tissue coverage of a guided bone regeneration (GBR) site using the double-rotated palatal subepithelial connective tissue graft (RPSCTG) technique for a maxillary anterior defect. Methods: We present a 60-year-old man with a defect in the anterior maxilla requiring hard and soft tissue augmentations. The bone graft materials were filled above the alveolar defect and a titanium-reinforced nonresorbable membrane was placed to cover the graft materials. We used the RPSCTG technique to achieve primary soft tissue closure over the graft materials and the barrier membrane. Additional soft tissue augmentation using a contralateral RPSCTG and membrane removal were simultaneously performed 7 weeks after the stage 1 surgery to establish more abundant soft tissue architecture. Results: Flap necrosis occurred after the stage 1 surgery. Signs of infection or suppuration were not observed in the donor or recipient sites after the stage 2 surgery. These procedures enhanced the alveolar ridge volume, increased the amount of keratinized tissue, and improved the esthetic profile for restorative treatment. Conclusions: The use of RPSCTG could assist the soft tissue closure of the GBR sites because it provides sufficient soft tissue thickness, an ample vascular supply, protection of anatomical structures, and patient comfort. The treatment outcome was acceptable, despite membrane exposure, and the RPSCTG allowed for vitalization and harmonization with the recipient tissue.

연구 목적: 이 연구의 목적은 골형성단백질 (recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2; rhBMP-2)이 코팅된 임플란트가 치조골 증대에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 6마리의 비글견이 실험에 사용되었다. 6개의 8 mm 길이의 임플란트가 발치 후 6개월 이상의 충분한 치유기간이 경과한 비글견의 치조골에 5 mm 깊이로 식립되었다. 각각의 동물에 좌측과 우측의 악궁-분할형으로 임의추출하여 한쪽에는 1.5 ml/mg 농도의 rhBMP-2가 코팅된 임플란트를, 반대편에는 코팅되지 않은 대조군 임플란트를 식립하고 임플란트 주변 골에 round bur를 이용하여 피질골 천공을 시행하였다. 점막골막판막에 이완절개를 시행하여 판막을 접합시키고 봉합하여 임플란트가 피개되도록 하였다. 방사선 사진 촬영은 수술 직후 (기준치), 수술 4주후, 수술 8주 후에 시행하였다. 측정은 각 방사선 사진의 임플란트 덮개나사 최상방에서 변연골까지의 거리를 측정하여 골 형성량을 계산하였다. 수술 직후와 수술 8주 후에 임플란트 안정도 (Implant Stability Quotient value; ISQ value)를 측정하였다. 통계분석을 위해 SPSS software를 사용하여 Man-Whitney ranksum test와 Wilcoxon signed ranksum test를 시행하였다. 통계적 유의수준은P=.05를 기준으로 하였다. 결과: 골형성단백질이 코팅된 임플란트에서 수직 결손부 상방으로 약 0.6 mm의 골 형성이 관찰되었다. 대조군에서는 제한된 양의 골 형성 혹은 골 소실이 일어났다. 각 시기에 따른 실험군과 대조군간의 골 형성량에 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). ISQ value는 수술 직후에는 실험군과 대조군의 유의한 차이가 없었지만 수술 8주 후에는 실험군에서 대조군 보다 유의하게 높게 증가되었다 (P<.05). 결론: 골형성단백질이 코팅된 임플란트는 완전히 치유된 치조골에서 임상적으로 유의한 골 증대 효과가 있는 것으로 보인다.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to measure the distance of the intraosseous vascular anastomosis in the anterolateral wall of the maxillary sinus from different reference points, and to correlate the location of the intraosseous vascular anastomosis with the tooth position and the residual bone height of the maxilla. Methods: Computed tomography (CT) images were taken from 283 patients undergoing dental implants placement in the posterior maxilla. Three horizontal lines were drawn at the ridge crest, maxillary sinus floor, and the position of the anastomosis. A vertical second line at the center of each tooth was drawn perpendicular to the horizontal lines. The distance from the ridge crest to the maxillary sinus floor and the distance from the maxillary sinus floor to the bony canal were measured from the intersections of the horizontal and vertical lines. The residual alveolar bone height was used to categorize three groups: group 1,<4 mm; group 2, between 4 and 8 mm; and group 3, >8 mm. Results: The residual bone height values of different tooth positions were significantly different (P=0.0002). The distance from the maxillary sinus floor to the intraosseous vascular anastomosis was significantly different between groups 1 and 3 (P=0.0039). At the molar sites, a moderate negative correlation was found between the residual bone height and the distance from the maxillary sinus floor to the intraosseous anastomosis. The distances of the alveolar ridge crest and the maxillary sinus from the intraosseous vascular anastomosis were not significantly different between sexes. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, sites with a higher residual bone height in the molar regions were at a relatively high risk of artery damage during window osteotomy preparation; therefore, we recommend taking more precautions when using a lateral approach for sinus elevation.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of different compressive forces on deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) particles covered by native bilayer collagen membrane (NBCM) during alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in the molar area, and to identify any histomorphometric and clinical differences according to the compressive force applied. Methods: Sockets were filled with DBBM after tooth extraction, and different compressive forces (30 N and 5 N, respectively) were applied to the graft material in the test (30 N) and control (5 N) groups. The DBBM in both groups was covered with NBCM in a double-layered fashion. A crossed horizontal mattress suture (hidden X) was then made. A core biopsy was performed using a trephine bur without flap elevation at the implant placement site for histomorphometric evaluations after 4 months. The change of the marginal bone level was measured using radiography. Results: Twelve patients completed the study. The histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that the mean ratios of the areas of new bone, residual graft material, and soft tissue and the implant stability quotient did not differ significantly between the groups (P>0.05). However, the mean size of the residual graft material showed a significant intergroup difference (P<0.05). Conclusions: The application of 2 compressive forces (5 N, 30 N) on particulate DBBM grafts during open-healing ARP in the posterior area led to comparable new bone formation, implant feasibility and peri-implant bone level.

Objectives: Distraction osteogenesis has recently evolved a challenging technique to overcome the limitations of conventional augmentation procedures. The aim of this report was to evaluate the clinical result of alveolar distraction osteogenesis for implant installation. Methods: Twenty five patients with alveolar ridge deficiencies were treated with vertical alveolar distraction osteogenesis by intraoral device (total 27 devices: 25 extraosseous and 2 intraosseous devices). After the latency periods of 5-7 days, activation of the device was started. The distraction rhythm and rate was 0.75-1.0 mm a day with 2 or 3 times a day. After 3-4 months, dental implants were placed with removing the distractor simultaneously. Results: On average, a vertical gain of $9.8{\pm}3.4\;mm$ was obtained by distraction osteogenesis. Total 84 implants were installed. Average follow up period was $13.5{\pm}7.5$ months. No implant was removed during the follow up period. Three patients showed infection during the distraction osteogenesis. Three devices were broken and 2 devices among them were replaced with new one. Conclusion: Relatively larger amount of alveolar bone augmentation could be obtained with distraction osteogenesis. For the ideal anatomically and functionally ideal regeneration of alveolar bone to install dental implant, the complication of distraction should be controlled.

상악 구치부는 치조제 골 흡수와 상악동 함기화로 인해 가용골의 양은 제한되고 골질도 좋지 않은 경우가 대부분으로 상악동저의 거상 후 가용골의 증대와 취약한 골에서 임플란트의 견고한 초기 고정을 획득하는 것이 중요하다. 심하게 위축된 치조제의 경우 임플란트의 적절한 초기 고정 획득을 위해 측방접근법을 통한 상악동 골이식술이나 지연 임플란트 식립법이 추천되나 본 연구에서는 수직적 잔존골 높이가 3 mm 이하인 상악 구치부 세 증례를 통해 수직 골 소실이 심한 상악 구치부에서 전통적인 개념과는 달리 최소침습적 수술법으로 치조정 접근을 통한 상악동 골이식과 동시에 임플란트 식립을 시행하여 합병증 없이 충분한 길이의 임플란트 식립이 가능함을 제안한다.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to evaluate the long-term success of horizontal alveolar crest augmentation of the retromolar region of the mandible with particulated bone, as well as factors affecting subsequent peri-implant bone loss. Methods: A total of 109 patients (68 female, 41 male) suffering from alveolar ridge deficiencies of the maxilla and mandible were included in this study. All patients were treated with particulated retromolar bone grafts from the mandible prior to the insertion of endosseous dental implants. Mesial and distal peri-implant crestal bone changes were assessed at six time points. Several parameters, including implant survival and the influence of age, gender, localisation of the implant, diameter, covering procedures, and time points of implant placement, were analysed to identify associations with bone level changes using the Mann-Whitney U-test, the Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman's rank-order correlation coefficient. Results: A total of 164 dental implants were placed in the maxilla (n=97) and in the mandible (n=67). The mean observation period was $105.26{\pm}21.58$ months after implantation. The overall survival rate was 97.6% after 10 years. Overall, peri-implant bone loss was highest during the first year, but decreased over time. The mean amount of bone loss after 10 years was 2.47 mm mesially and 2.50 mm distally. Bone loss was significantly influenced by implant type and primary stability. Conclusions: The use of particulated autologous retromolar bone grafts is a reliable technique for the horizontal reconstruction of local alveolar ridge deficiencies. Our results demonstrate that implants placed in augmented bone demonstrated similar bone level changes compared to implants inserted in non-augmented regions.

Purpose: Autogenous tooth bone graft is proven to be efficient. We evaluated the bone healing effect and clinical capabilities of autogenous tooth bone materials as a scaffold when growth factor is used together with this material. Materials and Methods: Subjects were those who needed implant placement and bone graft because of missing tooth or alveolar bone defect and who kept their autogenous tooth or needed extraction of other tooth. Group I included autogenous tooth bone graft with growth factor, whereas Group II had only autogenous tooth bone graft. We investigated the bone healing state through computed tomography taken just before surgery and 3 to 4 months after surgery to evaluate the effectiveness of bone graft. Group I had 9 patients, whereas Group II had 5 patients. We compared the pre- and post-operative increase of the Hounsfield unit and bone height by analyzing the computed tomography images. Result: Sinus bone grafts numbered 8 cases, and vertical ridge augmentation was performed together with 3 cases of these. Vertical ridge augmentation was performed in 2 cases, and horizontal ridge augmentation in 1 case alone. Socket graft was done in 3 cases. The post-operative mean value of the Hounsfield unit was 960 in Group I and 836.7 in Group II, but the increase was almost similar, i.e., 636.9 in Group I and 634.7 in Group II on the average. Increase of bone height was 7.6 mm in Group I and 11.1 mm in Group II on the average. This difference was attributable to the fact that most of the cases were sinus bone graft in Group II. Conclusion: In this study, we suggest the possibility of autogenous tooth bone graft materials as a scaffold besides their bone healing ability.
