[PMID: 38674309 PMCID: PMC11051762 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60040663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Background: Amniotic membrane (AM) holds significant promise in various medical fields due to its unique properties and minimal ethical concerns. This study aims to explore the diverse applications of the human amniotic membrane (HAM) in maxillofacial surgery. Methodology: A comprehensive search was conducted on databases, namely Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus, from January 1985 to March 2024. Articles in English, Polish, and Spanish were included, focusing on keywords related to amniotic membrane and oral surgery. Results: Various preservation methods for HAM were identified, namely fresh, decellularized, cryopreserved, lyophilized, and air-dried formats. Clinical studies demonstrated the efficacy of HAM in repairing oral mucosal defects, vestibuloplasty, oronasal fistula closure, cleft palate treatment, bone defect repair, and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Surgeon evaluations highlighted the ease of handling but noted challenges in suturing and stability during application. Conclusions: Amniotic membranes offer a versatile and effective option in maxillofacial surgery, promoting wound healing, reducing inflammation, and providing a scaffold for tissue regeneration. Further research, including randomized trials and comparative studies, is warranted to validate the efficacy and optimize the utilization of HAM in clinical practice.

Karas M, Gunpinar S. The use of low level laser therapy in conjunction with diode laser-assisted and conventional vestibuloplasty: Comparison of wound healing and vestibular depth gain. JOURNAL OF STOMATOLOGY, ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY 2023; 124:101476. [PMID: 37086896 DOI: 10.1016/j.jormas.2023.101476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to compare wound healing and vestibular depth gain in individuals undergoing vestibule deepening surgery using diode laser and conventional technique and to further investigate the possible wound healing effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT). MATERIAL AND METHODS 52 systemically healthy individuals with insufficient vestibular depth in the region of teeth 33-43 in the lower jaw were included. Following nonsurgical periodontal treatment, patients were divided into four groups as follows: a) diode laser (L); b) diode laser + LLLT; c) conventional surgery and d) conventional surgery + LLLT. Vestibular depth and horizontal wound size measurements of the individuals were recorded using digital calipers. Reepithelization was evaluated via an image analysis program. RESULTS Vestibular depth measurements were found to be higher in the conventional surgery groups compared to that of diode laser groups after the operation, while the results were not statistically different between groups (p >0.05). Reepithelization area did not differ between groups in the evaluated time periods (p >0,05). On the other hand, horizontal wound shrinkage was significantly higher in the conventional surgery group than that of diode laser. CONCLUSIONS Within the limits of this study, both methods yielded in vestibule depth gain. On the other hand, LLLT did not have an additional positive effect on mucosal wound healing. As a clinical relevance, the results are valuable for clinicians in terms of showing that suturing of the mucosal flap formed following vestibule deepening should not be necessary in laser assisted surgery for attaining more vestibule depth.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to present a case demonstrating the treatment of epulis
fissuratum due to a poorly adapted prosthesis using a single surgical procedure involving
conventional excision and free gingival graft. We, herein, present a case involving a
58-year-old patient with epulis fissuratum. Treatment of this case was essential due to
the masticatory problems. This technique can be effective to deepen the height of the
residual alveolar ridge and to increase the amount of keratinized tissue.

Comparison of Vestibular Depth Relapse and Wound Healing After Reconstructive Preprosthetic Surgery Using Cryopreserved Amniotic Membrane and Acellular Dermal Matrix - A Comparative Study. Ann Maxillofac Surg 2021; 11:12-16. [PMID: 34522647 PMCID: PMC8407648 DOI: 10.4103/ams.ams_322_20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2020] [Revised: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The significance of membranes as wound dressing in oral surgeries has been reported by previous studies. The aim of the present split-mouth randomized clinical study was to assess and compare the wound dressing properties of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and cryopreserved human amniotic membrane (AM) after reconstructive preprosthetic oral surgery. Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight patients with complete mandibular edentulism and resorbed alveolar bone were included. After taking mandibular impression, a clear acrylic splint with increased labial flange height was created. In each participant, labial vestibular depth was elevated using the Clark's technique. Subsequently, half of the exposed periosteum was covered with ADM while the other half was covered with cryopreserved human AM. Vestibule depth and relapse in the two sides were measured immediately after vestibuloplasty and at the end of the 1st week, 2nd week, 1st month, and 3rd months with graduations of 0.1 mm. Furthermore, after 3 and 7 days, samples were collected from graft material, and the macrophage population was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results: There was no significant difference in the relapse of vestibule depth between the two grafts at different time intervals. However, the frequency of wound-infiltrating macrophages (CD68+ cells) was significantly higher in areas covered by ADM after 3 and 7 days. Discussion: ADM is as effective as cryopreserved AM in terms of maintaining the postoperative vestibular depth. On the other hand, our results suggested that the onset of healing phase in ADM-covered areas occurs faster compared to the periosteum covered with cryopreserved human AM. This clinical trial showed significantly faster postoperative healing onset when ADM was used than when cryopreserved human AM was applied on the periosteum.

Abstract
Background The removal of maxillary carcinoma causes various types of tissue defects, which can be corrected by free flap reconstruction. In flap reconstruction after maxillary cancer resection, ensuring prosthesis stability is frequently difficult owing to the flap’s weight. Therefore, a second modification technique is required for improvement of configuration. This case where flap suspension and flap modifying surgery were performed using anchor system for the extensive complete maxillectomy case. Case presentation The patient was a 56-year-old male, who underwent an extensive total maxillectomy and flap reconstruction using the rectus abdominus muscles in May 2005. Postoperatively, due to the difficulties of wearing a maxillary denture, he was transferred to our department with the chief complaint of morphological improvement. The maxillary bone had already been removed from the midline with the rectus abdominus muscle flap sutured directly to the soft palate without oral vestibule, and the flap margin was moving together with the surrounding soft tissue. The flap size was 70 × 50 mm, which was sagging due to its own weight and was in contact with mandibular molars, reducing the volume of the oral cavity without a denture being worn. Flap reduction and lifting the flap were performed under general anesthesia using 3 Mitek anchors implanted in the zygomatic bone, and the anchor suture was placed through the subcutaneous tissue to lift the flap. Postoperatively, the prosthesis was stable. No recurrence of flap sagging or wound infection was seen 3 years after surgery. Conclusions The second modification technique after maxillary cancer resection is useful for ensuring prosthesis stability. This method can be used before prosthesis addition. We could obtain remarkable denture stability by flap suspension using anchor system and a flap-modifying operation for the patient who had undergone maxilloecotomy. The denture was stabilized by using anchors for the elevated flap and flap loss technique and by performing vestibuloplasty for support.

Abstract
Vestibuloplasty is the procedure for shallow vestibule, prior to the prosthesis. Usually, vestibuloplasty is carried out in patients with completely edentulous arches. There are multiple techniques of vestibuloplasty described in the review of literature. However, it has not been emphasized on isolated shallow vestibule. This article describes our experience in the isolated or localized vestibuloplasty for a partially edentulous individual with a shallow vestibule pertaining to a single missing tooth.

Oral crest lengthening for increasing removable denture retention by means of CO2 laser. ScientificWorldJournal 2014; 2014:738643. [PMID: 25383385 PMCID: PMC4212588 DOI: 10.1155/2014/738643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2014] [Revised: 08/18/2014] [Accepted: 08/19/2014] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The loss of teeth and their replacement by artificial denture is associated with many problems. The denture needs a certain amount of ridge height to give it retention and a long-term function. Crest lengthening procedures are performed to provide a better anatomic environment and to create proper supporting structures for more stability and retention of the denture. The purpose of our study is to describe and evaluate the effectiveness of CO2 laser-assisted surgery in patients treated for crest lengthening (vestibular deepening). There have been various surgical techniques described in order to restore alveolar ridge height by pushing muscles attaching of the jaws. Most of these techniques cause postoperative complications such as edemas, hemorrhage, pain, infection, slow healing, and rebound to initial position. Our clinical study describes the treatment planning and clinical steps for the crest lengthening with the use of CO2 laser beam (6–15 Watts in noncontact, energy density range: 84.92–212.31 J/cm2, focus, and continuous mode with a focal point diameter of 0.3 mm). At the end of each surgery, dentures were temporarily relined with a soft material. Patients were asked to mandatorily wear their relined denture for a minimum of 4–6 weeks and to remove it for hygienic purposes. At the end of each surgery, the deepest length of the vestibule was measured by the operator. No sutures were made and bloodless wounds healed in second intention without grafts. Results pointed out the efficiency of the procedure using CO2 laser. At 8 weeks of post-op, the mean of crest lengthening was stable without rebound. Only a loss of 15% was noticed. To conclude, the use of CO2 laser is an effective option for crest lengthening.
