The alveolar ridge, the bony structure that supports dental implants, often requires augmentation prior to implant insertion. Contemporary techniques have focused on the expansion of a deficient ...

A new study published in the journal of Medicine showed that the immediate implant placement (IIP) protocol demonstrated a ...

As dental implants have become common procedures, so has preimplant preparation of the bone. Accordingly, the ridge-split procedure to widen and augment the alveolar ridge is finding renewed interest.

As more general dentists are undertaking implant placement, a new study finds that careful treatment planning with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is critical for the success of immediate implant ...

Prophylactic treatment of NF-κB decoy ODN-loaded PLGA nanospheres local administration prevents alveolar bone loss and promotes wound healing after tooth extraction. PLGA-NfD demonstrates inhibitory ...
