Abstract
Horizontal platelet-rich fibrin (H-PRF) contains a variety of bioactive growth factors and cytokines that play a key role in the process of tissue healing and regeneration. The blood collection tubes used to produce Solid-PRF (plasmatrix (PM) tubes) have previously been shown to have a great impact on the morphology, strength and composition of the final H-PRF clot. Therefore, modification to PM tubes is an important step toward the future optimization of PRF. To this end, we innovatively modified the inner wall surface of the PM tubes with plasma and adjusted the gas environment inside the PM tubes to prepare super-hydrophilic anaerobic plasmatrix tubes (SHAP tubes). It was made anaerobic for the preparation of H-PRF with the aim of improving mechanical strength and bioactivity. The findings demonstrated that an anaerobic environment stimulated platelet activation within the PRF tubes. After compression, the prepared H-PRF membrane formed a fibrous cross-linked network with high fracture strength, ideal degradation characteristics, in addition to a significant increase in size. Thereafter, the H-PRF membranes prepared by the SHAP tubes significantly promoted collagen synthesis of gingival fibroblast and the mineralization of osteoblasts while maintaining excellent biocompatibility, and advantageous antibacterial properties. In conclusion, the newly modified PRF tubes had better platelet activation properties leading to better mechanical strength, a longer degradation period, and better regenerative properties in oral cell types including gingival fibroblast and alveolar osteoblasts. It also improves the success rate of H-PRF preparation in patients with coagulation dysfunction and expands the clinical application scenario.

Tooth Autotransplantation, Autogenous Dentin Graft, and Growth Factors Application: A Method for Preserving the Alveolar Ridge in Cases of Severe Infraocclusion-A Case Report and Literature Review. J Clin Med 2024; 13:3902. [PMID: 38999468 PMCID: PMC11242798 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13133902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Tooth infraocclusion is a process in which a completely or partially erupted tooth gradually moves away from the occlusal plane. Submerged teeth can lead to serious complications. Treating teeth with infraocclusion is very challenging. One of the procedures allowing for the replacement of a missing tooth is autotransplantation. The aim of this paper is to review the literature on teeth autotransplantation, supported by a case report involving the autotransplantation of a third mandibular molar into the site of an extracted infraoccluded first mandibular molar, as well as the utilization of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) alongside autogenous dentin grafts for bone tissue regeneration. Methods: A severely infraoccluded first permanent right mandibular molar was extracted and then ground to obtain the dentin graft. A-PRF clots (collected from the patient's peripheral blood) were added to the autogenous dentin graft, to create the A-PRF membrane. An atraumatic extraction of the lower left third molar was performed and then it was transplanted into the socket of tooth no. 46. Immediately after transplantation, tooth no. 38 was stabilized with orthodontic bracket splints for 3 months. The patient attended regular follow-up visits within 12 months. Results: After one year, the patient did not report any pain. In the clinical examination, the tooth and surrounding tissues did not show any signs of infection. However, radiographically, cervical inflammatory resorption, unchanged pulp canal dimensions, absent root growth, periapical radiolucency, and lack of apical and marginal healing were observed. Reconstruction of the bone defect was obtained and the alveolar ridge of the mandible was preserved. Due to poor stability of the tooth and severe resorption, the tooth needed to be extracted. Conclusions: This study is designed to critically evaluate the efficacy of autotransplantation, the application of growth factors, and the integration of autogenous dentin grafts in remedying dental deficiencies resulting from reinclusion. We aim to point out the possible causes of treatment failure.

Abstract
The survival of an organism relies on its ability to repair the damage caused by trauma, toxic agents, and inflammation. This process involving cell proliferation and differentiation is driven by several growth factors and is critically dependent on the organization of the extracellular matrix. Since autologous platelet concentrates (APCs) are fibrin matrices in which cells, growth factors, and cytokines are trapped and delivered over time, they are able to influence that response at different levels. The present review thoroughly describes the molecular components present in one of these APCs, leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF), and summarizes the level of evidence regarding the influence of L-PRF on anti-inflammatory reactions, analgesia, hemostasis, antimicrobial capacity, and its biological mechanisms on bone/soft tissue regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was designed to estimate the effect of sticky bone combined with concentrated growth factor (CGF) on anterior alveolar horizontal augmentation during implantation. METHODS Twenty-eight patients were randomly assigned to either the test group (Group 1, n = 14) or the control group (Group 2, n = 14). Patients in Group 1 and Group 2 underwent GBR using sticky bone combined with CGF and bone powders mixed with saline, respectively. On postoperative Day 7, the patients completed the visual analogue scale (VAS). Three-dimensional models of maxillary alveolar bone were reconstructed from CBCT data at different periods, and the bone volume conversion rate was calculated with the assistance of a measurement marker guide. Labial bone thickness before and after trauma closure and bone density at six months postoperatively were also measured. RESULTS The mean bone volume conversion rate for Group 1 (72.09 ± 12.18%) was greater than that for Group 2 (57.47 ± 9.62%, P = 0.002). The VAS score was lower for Group 1 than for Group 2 (P = 0.032). At six months postoperatively, greater bone density was found in patients in Group 1 than in those in Group 2, although the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The change in the thickness of the labial bone graft material in Group 1 was smaller than that in Group 2 (P = 0.025). CONCLUSION Sticky bone combined with CGF was able to achieve better bone augmentation than conventional GBR. With excellent mechanical properties and the capacity to release growth factors, sticky bone is an ideal material for bone grafting. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry on 10/04/2022 (Identification number: ChiCTR2200058500).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Lateral ridge augmentation (LRA) is a surgical technique to gain bone prior to implant placement. Performing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) pre- and post-surgery allows for quantitative comparison of the buccal-lingual width and the vertical height of the edentulous ridges. This study used CBCT images to evaluate the bone regeneration following surgery. METHODS A total of 30 cases from adult patients who underwent LRA and had high-quality CBCT images taken pre- and post-surgery from the same CBCT scanner were available for the retrospective study. Study data included linear measurements of the bone ridge width and height obtained from the middle of the edentulous ridge and a volumetric measurement of bone growth at the edentulous site observed on the CBCT scan. RESULTS The reliability of the measurements was excellent as indicated by Intra-Class Coefficient values of 0.974 or higher. There was a significant mean bone increase from pre-surgery compared to post-surgery for both the linear and volumetric measurements. The linear bone gain ranged from 1.5 to 2.5 mm and volumetric gain from 250 to 750 mm3 . However, two patients did not gain any bone. Multivariate regression showed the strongest predictors of bone gain post-surgery were the pre-surgery bone volume and a surgical site being in the mandible. For maxillary surgical sites, particularly anterior areas, the LRA surgeries were the least successful. CONCLUSIONS LRA before implant placement helped to increase bone for the majority of patients, particularly for surgical sites in the mandible. The quantitative analyses in the CBCT images showed excellent intra-examiner agreement.

Abstract
Many patients require edentulous ridge augmentation for dental implant placement. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the results of maxillary edentulous ridge augmentation exclusively with xenograft materials with and without simultaneous sinus floor elevation. This study reports the data retrieved from the records of 16 patients. The treatment outcome was assessed at least 6 months, postoperatively. Paired samples t-test or Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used to compare the pre-and postoperative ridge dimensions. Dental implants were placed simultaneously in 7 patients, while 9 patients underwent delayed implant placement. In total, 68 implants were placed, and 12 patients also underwent maxillary sinus floor augmentation. A significant bone gain was achieved in both horizontal and vertical dimensions of edentulous maxillary ridges (P < 0.001). Ridge width increased by an average of 4.35 ± 1.90 mm (95% CI: 3.84 to 4.85 mm) while ridge height in areas of sinus floor augmentation increased by 8.19 ± 2.91 mm (95% CI: 7.33 to 9.05 mm). Within the study limitations, it appears that maxillary ridge augmentation according to the guided bone regeneration (GBR) protocols with exclusive use of xenograft particulate materials can provide optimal bone quantity for dental implant placement.

Abstract
Biomimetic dental implants are regarded as one of the recent clinical advancements in implant surface modification. Coatings with varying thicknesses and roughness may affect the dental implant surface's chemical inertness, cell adhesion, and antibacterial characteristics. Different surface coatings and mechanical surface changes have been studied to improve osseointegration and decrease peri-implantitis. The surface medication increases surface energy, leading to enhanced cell proliferation and growth factors, and, consequently, to a rise in the osseointegration process. This review provides a comprehensive update on the numerous biomimetic coatings used to improve the surface characteristics of dental implants and their applications in two main categories: coating to improve osseointegration, including the hydroxyapatite layer and nanocomposites, growth factors (BMPs, PDGF, FGF), and extracellular matrix (collagen, elastin, fibronectin, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronan, and other proteoglycans), and coatings for anti-bacterial performance, covering drug-coated dental implants (antibiotic, statin, and bisphosphonate), antimicrobial peptide coating (GL13K and human beta defensins), polysaccharide antibacterial coatings (natural chitosan and its coupling agents) and metal elements (silver, zinc, and copper).

Abstract
RATIONALE Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), one of the commonly used anti-anxiety drugs, may have impacts on bone metabolism and potentially lead to drug-induced osteoporosis. The traditional approach of oral implantation in individuals with both anxiety disorder and drug-induced osteoporosis poses a significant challenge. To address this issue, concentrated growth factor (CGF) has been utilized in patients undergoing concurrent alveolar ridge augmentation during oral implantation, resulting in favorable clinical outcomes. Consequently, combining CGF with guided bone regeneration (GBR) in alveolar bone increment may represent a promising new surgical approach for such patients. In this report, we present a case study of a 25-year-old male with anxiety disorder and drug-induced osteoporosis, in who CGF combined with GBR was employed in alveolar bone increment. PATIENT CONCERNS This article reports the case of a 25-year-old male who underwent cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) due to the absence of his right lower second molar for a period of six months. The CBCT scan revealed significant bone defects, which were attributed to the tooth loss and prolonged use of anti-anxiety drugs. Consequently, the patient sought medical assistance from our department. DIAGNOSES Based on the patient's self-report, he was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. Additionally, the CBCT scan confirmed the loss of the right mandibular second molar and revealed the presence of dental irregularity and an alveolar bone defect. INTERVENTIONS During the patient's course of treatment with anti-anxiety medication, a combination of CGF and GBR was employed for the simultaneous implantation of the missing right mandibular second molar, along with bone augmentation. OUTCOMES The patient had a follow-up visit two weeks after the surgical procedure, and the wound in the operation area had healed satisfactorily. Six months later, CBCT images revealed excellent osseointegration. The buccal and lingual width of the alveolar bone measured 6.95mm, which was an increase of 1.35mm compared to the pre-implantation stage. LESSONS This article presents a case study in which CGF combined with GBR were utilized to address alveolar bone augmentation during the implantation phase in patients taking anti-anxiety medication. The results demonstrated that CGF combined with GBR, as a cutting-edge platelet concentrate technique, could effectively stimulate bone tissue proliferation in individuals who have been on long-term anti-anxiety medication, specifically in oral implant areas. This approach can help prevent poor osseointegration, promote higher osseointegration rates, and facilitate wound healing.

[PMID: 37217911 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-02991-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous clinical variables may influence early marginal bone loss (EMBL), including surgical, prosthetic and host-related factors. Among them, bone crest width plays a crucial role: an adequate peri-implant bone envelope has a protective effect against the influence of the aforementioned factors on marginal bone stability. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of buccal and palatal bone thickness at the time of implant placement on EMBL during the submerged healing period. METHODS Patients presenting a single edentulism in the upper premolar area and requiring implant-supported rehabilitation were enrolled following inclusion and exclusion criteria. Internal connection implants (Twinfit, Dentaurum, Ispringen, Germany) were inserted after piezoelectric implant site preparation. Mid-facial and mid-palatal thickness and height of the peri-implant bone were measured immediately after implant placement (T0) with a periodontal probe and recorded to the nearest 0.5 mm. After 3 months of submerged healing (T1), implants were uncovered and measurements were repeated with the same protocol. Kruskal-Wallis test for independent samples was used to compare bone changes from T0 to T1. Multivariate linear regression models were built to assess the influence of different variables on buccal and palatal EMBL. RESULTS Ninety patients (50 females, 40 males, mean age 42.9 ± 15.1 years), treated with the insertion of 90 implants in maxillary premolar area, were included in the final analysis. Mean buccal and palatal bone thickness at T0 were 2.42 ± 0.64 mm and 1.31 ± 0.38 mm, respectively. Mean buccal and palatal bone thickness at T1 were 1.92 ± 0.71 mm and 0.87 ± 0.49 mm, respectively. Changes in both buccal and palatal thickness from T0 to T1 resulted statistically significant (p = 0.000). Changes in vertical bone levels from T0 to T1 resulted not significant both on buccal (mean vertical resorption 0.04 ± 0.14 mm; p = 0.479) and palatal side (mean vertical resorption 0.03 ± 0.11 mm; p = 0.737). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed a significant negative correlation between vertical bone resorption and bone thickness at T0 on both buccal and palatal side. CONCLUSION The present findings suggest that a bone envelope > 2 mm on the buccal side and > 1 mm on the palatal side may effectively prevent peri-implant vertical bone resorption following surgical trauma. TRIAL REGISTRATION The present study was retrospectively recorded in a public register of clinical trials ( www. CLINICALTRIALS gov - NCT05632172) on 30/11/2022.

Abstract
Platelet concentrates (PCs) are easily obtained from autogenous whole blood after centrifugation and have evolved through three generations of development to include platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin, and concentrated growth factor. Currently, PCs are widely used for sinus floor elevation, alveolar ridge preservation, periodontal bone defects, guided bone regeneration, and treatment of gingival recession. More recently, PCs have been leveraged for tissue regeneration to promote oral soft and hard tissue regeneration in implant dentistry and regenerative periodontology. PCs are ideal for this purpose because they have a high concentration of platelets, growth factors, and cytokines. Platelets have been shown to release extracellular vesicles (P-EVs), which are thought to be essential for PC-induced tissue regeneration. This study reviewed the clinical application of PCs and P-EVs for implant surgery and periodontal tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Nowadays, implant dentistry is strongly interconnected to bone augmentation procedures. Lateral ridge augmentation is often an imperative treatment stage for successful, prosthetic-driven implant placement. This study aimed to comparatively analyze the immediate postoperative complications of two horizontal bone grafting procedures: sticky bone and bone shell technique. Records of patients with lateral ridge augmentation were analyzed to identify immediate postoperative complications. The study group included 80 patients divided into 40 control (bone-shell technique - BS) and 40 tests (sticky bone -SB). More patients reported moderate and severe pain in the BS - group (11 patients - 27.5%) than in the SB group (6 patients - 15%). In the BS group, the incidence of severe and moderate trismus, neurosensory disturbances, and important hematoma was higher. There was an increased inflammatory response following the bone shell technique, while the sticky bone technique proved reduced surgical morbidity. There was no difference between the two groups in the risk of dehiscence or infection.
