Among these, the critical assessment of the peri-implant soft tissues and subsequent therapeutical interventions are considered key factors. -
Implantation with Simultaneous Augmentation
Grunder, UeliProcedure: - Case evaluation - Incision technique - Implant placement - Membrane adjustment and fixation - Introduction of replacement material - Flap mobilization - Suture technique Contents: Implantation was desired for replacement of a missing upper canine tooth and the adjacent lateral incisor tooth. The initial case evaluation revealed a relatively narrow gap between these two teeth in addition to extensive hard and soft-tissue defects. We selected an incision technique that made it possible to do the augmentation work yet subsequently achieve a tension-free flap closure. Since the bony defect was large while the available space was limited, we had to go for the best possible compromise in regard to implant insertion. After the implants had been inserted, augmentation was carried out using a non-absorbable, titanium-reinforced membrane, bone replacement material, and an absorbable membrane. Extreme flap mobilization was needed to achieve flap closure. An optimal suture technique was used to complete the surgery. -

REAL-TIME NAVIGATION: THE BEGINNING OF A NEW ERA IN GUIDED IMPLANT SURGERY
Objectives: To demonstrate that dynamic guided surgery is as predictable as conventional surgery. Methods: Partially edentulous patients requiring a fixed rehabilitation were selected for this pilot study. No specific contraindications were established, and smokers were not excluded. An impression was taken pre-operatively using an irreversible hydrocolloid (Cavex CA37®) to fabricate a diagnostic cast for moulding the surgical stent (NaviStent®). Afterwards, a standard cone-beam CT (CBCT) scan was made with the NaviStent® in place using a Planmeca Promax 3-D Max®. Images were converted into DICOM files and transformed into a 3-D virtual model using the Navident® software. The potential implant locations were planned in a prosthesis-driven way. For preparing the osteotomy, the drilling axis of the handpiece and the twist drills were calibrated. The osteotomies were prepared at low speed using a high level of cooling. The navigation software guided the drilling procedure in real time. Before installing implants, an extra calibration procedure was performed for tracking the implant. The aim of this pilot study was to determine the clinical outcome up to 12 months post-operatively for implants installed using the Navident® guided surgery system. Results: Partially edentulous men (n = 6) and women (n = 7) were included in this pilot study (mean age 52.15 years; range 20–75). Out of these 13 patients, two were current smokers of more than 10 cigarettes per day. Twenty implants were inserted. No mechanical or biological complications occurred during the surgical procedure, and no major complaints were reported, such as hemorrhage, sinus pathology or severe post-operative pain. No implants were lost up to 1 year after insertion, resulting in 100% implant survival. Conclusions: Based on the results of this pilot study, real-time navigation is a promising technique. However, there is not yet enough evidence to show that the method is as safe and predictable as conventional implant surgery. -
Cell-to-Cell Communication - Inflammatory Reactions
Stadlinger, Bernd / Terheyden, HendrikVisualizing the invisible while experiencing a fascination with science is the great challenge that Cell-to-Cell Communication, representing an all-new genre, has set out to meet. A spectacularly sophisticated computer animation in HD quality depicts the highly complex processes of intercellular interaction during an inflammatory periodontal reaction complete with the messenger molecules implicated. The various cell types constitute the main cast of the film, using a finely tuned communication process in their quest to destroy the bacterial invaders, with messenger molecules as supporting cast. A stunning didactic and dramatic experience! Outline: - Biofilm - Gingivitis and the Innate Immune Defense - Periodontitis and the Adaptive Immune Defense - Cleaning and Regeneration

Techniken der Sinusbodenaugmentation mit autogenem Kinnknochen
Schultze-Mosgau, Stefan / Neukam, Friedrich Wilhelm / Basting, GerdGliederung: - Indikationsspektrum zur Sinusbodenaugmentation - Operative Technik der lateralen Sinusbodenaugmentation - Operative Technik der krestalen, endoskopisch kontrollierten Sinusbodenaugmentation - Operative Technik der autogenen Kinnknochenentnahme. Im Oberkieferseitenzahnbereich kann bei einem vertikal reduzierten ortsständigen Knochenangebot von weniger als 5-7 mm vor einer kaufunktionelle Rehabilitation mit einem implantatgetragenen Zahnersatz eine Sinusbodenaugmentation zur Vergrößerung des vertikalen Knochenangebotes indiziert sein. Für eine einseitige Einlagerungsosteoplastik ist hierbei die Menge an autogenem Knochen aus der Kinnregion zumeist ausreichend. Demonstriert wird das operative Vorgehen einer einseitigen lateralen Sinusbodenaugmentation mit partikulärer Spongiosa und alternativ mit einem autogenen Blocktransplantat. Ebenfalls zeigt der Film die operative Vorgehensweise bei einer krestalen Sinusboden-augmentation mit Hilfe der endoskopisch kontrollierten Kondensationstechnik. Herausgearbeitet werden die Vor- und Nachteile der einzelnen Verfahren. Zusätzlich wird die Entnahmetechnik von Kinnknochentransplantaten an unterschiedlichen Fallbeispielen vorgestellt. -

EFFECT OF PERIODONTAL TREATMENT ON LEVELS OF PERIOSTIN IN GINGIVAL CREVICULAR FLUID (GCF) OF PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC PERIODONTITIS
Objectives: Periostin is an extracellular matrix protein that has a vital role in maintaining periodontal tissue integrity by forming a major part of the extracellular matrix (ECM). However, its role in vivo is yet to be elucidated. Hence this study was designed to assess the relationship between levels of periostin in the periodontium in healthy, diseased and healing humans. Methods: A total of 30 subjects were divided into two groups based on Russel’s Periodontal Disease Index (PDI) – healthy periodontium (group I; healthy) and chronic generalised periodontitis (group II; diseased). Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected using microcapillary pipettes from each participant at baseline, and at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after scaling root planing (SRP)in both groups, and at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after flap surgery in group II. Immunoblot assays were performed using a dot blot technique with appropriate antibodies. Spot densitometry analysis was performed with image analysis software. The correlation between periostin levels and various clinical parameters was analysed at baseline in both groups. Results: We found a mean level of periostin in the healthy group (I) as 423.6 ± 25.67, which was higher than that in the diseased group II (mean 148.07 ± 7.89). GCF levels of periostin correlated highly and positively (and statistically significantly) with PDI scores (p increased to 158.8 ± 10.93 at 2 weeks and to 170.2 ± 12.51 at 4 weeks post-SRP. These values further increased to 182.87 ± 12.41 at 2 weeks and 196.87 ± 19.01 ) at 4 weeks after flap surgery. All results were statistically significant (p Conclusion: These results confirm that periostin is highly expressed in healthy tissues and helps to maintain tissue homeostasis, and ;levels are downregulated during inflammation, as seen in the diseased group. Increasing levels of periostin after periodontal therapy indicate its role in wound healing. -
Surgical Techniques for Closure of Oro-Antral Communications
Schultze-Mosgau, Stefan / Neukam, Friedrich Wilhelm / Basting, GerdContent With a maxillary sinus recess reaching far into the alveolar process of the maxilla, the maxillary sinus can sometimes be opened when maxillary incisors are extracted. An oro-antral communication is determined by a nose-blowing test or by sounding out of the alveolus with blunt probes. After an inflamed, cystic, or tumorous maxillary sinus illness has been excluded, an oro-antral communication should be closed immediately with plastic surgery within the first 24 hours after extraction to prevent the germ-free maxillary sinus from being contaminated. Plastic covering by plastic surgery using a cheek flap with vestibular stem is demonstrated. After a mucoperiosteal flap with vestibular stem has been formed, the flap is lengthened by slitting the periosteum so that a tension-free sealing of the opened maxillary sinus will be possible without endangering the flap's blood flow at the same time. Outline: - Diagnostics of an oro-antral communication - Exclusion of inflammatory, cystic, or tumorous maxillary sinus illnesses - Cheek flap plastic surgery for plastic covering of an oro-antral communication - Cutting direction for the formation of a mucoperiosteal flap with vestibular stem - De-epithelalization of wound margins - Mobilization of the flap by slitting the periosteum - Periosteal holding stitches for tension -free closure of the oro-antral communication - Stitching technique for saliva-proof wound closure - Demonstration of buccal flap plastic surgery - Demonstration of bridge flap plastic surgery - Demonstration of palatal flap plastic surgery - Postoperative reaction measures -
HISTOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF TUNNEL β-TRICALCIUM PHOSPHATE (β-TCP) BLOCKS FOR RIDGE PRESERVATION AFTER TOOTH EXTRACTION WITH BUCCAL BONE DEFICIENCY
Objectives: Alveolar ridge resorption occurs as a consequence of tooth extraction, and bone grafting materials are recommended to reduce these volume changes. In this study, β-TCP blocks were manufactured from randomly organised β-TCP particles with a luminal structure to investigate the effect of these blocks on alveolar ridge preservation after extraction in cases of buccal bone plate deficiency. Methods: Tunnel β-TCP particles are cylindrical with an outer diameter of 500μm, a length of 1mm and a centre hole with an inside diameter of 300 μm. They were manufactured by gathering and fixing randomly organised particles, with a porosity of about 70%, and were shaped into 5 × 5 × 5mm blocks. Six beagle dogs were used. The first premolar of the maxilla was extracted after the buccal bone plate covering the root surface was removed. The extraction sockets with the buccal bone defect were trimmed to 4 ×4 ×5mm (mesiodistal width × buccopalatal width × depth). Bilateral bone defects were filled with tunnel β-TCP blocks at the test sites, and no graft materials were placed in control sites. After two months of healing, histologic and histometric evaluation in the region of interest (ROI) corresponding to the bone defect size was performed. The width and area of new bone formation was measured in the ROI, including bone marrow, basic multicellular units, woven bone formation, and residual TCP. Statistical analysis was performed using the Student’s t-test (p Results: There was no inflammation or wound dehiscence at either experimental or control sites. The new bone formation and residual ß-TCP ceramics were observed inside the tunnel β-TCP blocks at the test sites. Small amounts of new bone and large amounts of connective tissue were observed at control sites. The buccal width of new bone at the test sites was 3.2 ± 0.5, 3.6 ± 0.4 and 3.4 ± 0.2mm at the coronal, middle and apical positions, respectively. For the control sites, the corresponding widths were 1.2 ± 0.3, 2.0 ± 0.6 and 3.0 ± 0.6mm. The width of newly formed bone was significantly greater in the test group, compared to controls, at the coronal and middle positions. The woven bone at the test sites (62.4 ± 7.9%) was significantly higher than that of the controls (26.8 ± 5.3%). The amount of the bone marrow was 4.1 ± 2.2% at test sites and 16.0 ± 6.9% in controls, whereas the amount of connective tissue was 10.7 ± 5.7% at test sites and 38. 1±6. 2% in controls. In both outcome measures, the control sites were significantly higher than the test sites. In terms of the percentage of BMUs, there was no significant difference between the test and control sites (0.5 ± 0.1% and 0.6 ± 0.1%). Conclusion: We compared extraction alone with the use of tunnel β-TCP blocks for alveolar ridge preservation in extraction sockets with buccal bone defects. This is the first study to evaluate the effectiveness of this novel material on ridge preservation after tooth extraction. Clinical healing was uneventful and the material appears to be safe for use in extraction sockets. Histology revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups. The results suggest that ridge preservation using tunnel β-TCP blocks after extraction with deficient buccal bone was effective after two months, but more time is required for replacement by new bone.
