The synthesis route was based on calcium phosphate composition and the incorporation of glycolic acid as a pore former, giving a material composed of 97% <em>β</em>-TCP and 3% calcium orthophosphates (CaPO<sub>4</sub>). An<em> i</em><em></em><span></span><em>n </em><em>vitro</em> study of the purity, microstructure, crystalline domain, and pores size for the material obtained was performed by SEM analysis as well as full structural characterization. The region of interest related to the surface was determined by the specific surface area measured with the BET method. <em>In vivo</em> evaluation of bone response was performed by implanting the new low-cost biphasic manufacturing material synthesized in this work, which was compared with a biphasic material of similar chemical and microstructural composition existing in the commercial market and with higher cost called Synergy Odontit<sup><span style="white-space:nowrap;">®</span></sup> <em>β</em>-TCP. The materials were implanted separately into 5 mm diameter defects in the tibias of New Zealand White rabbits at 30, 60, and 90 days. The results obtained showed that the host tissue well accepted the new biphasic material;the presence of new bone formation was observed. A more complete resorption was observed for the new microcrystalline biphasic material compared to for a commercial <em>β</em>-TCP material.展开更多

Radiographically, the multilocular lesion involved the left lower first molar and was 30 mm long by 20 mm high. Dental extraction of the molar involved with forceps and exeresis in toto of the tumor were performed using a Volkmann cutting curette. The tumor made up of 90% vascular tissue produced intra-surgical bleeding that made visibility difficult. The bone bed curettage was aggressive except for its base in direct contact with the inferior dental nerve. Subsequently, to avoid recurrence, the surgical protocol includes a double irrigation with Carnoy’s solution, (fixative composed of 60% ethanol, 30% chloroform and 10% glacial acetic acid 98%) for 5 minutes that produces chemical cauterization. Finally, it was washed with physiological solution and the cavity was filled with iodoformed gauze. The gauze was exchanged and removed gradually over three weeks for second intention healing. This case is presented to demonstrate that inexpensive chemical treatment can be safely used for outpatient surgery under local anesthesia. Because Carnoy’s solution achieved control of intraoperative bleeding, allowed bone healing and prevented recurrence of the lesion in clinical radiographic follow-up for 15 years.展开更多

The patient comes to the consultation for mobility of the central incisor. Clinically, tooth mobility was confirmed with tooth crowding and persistence of the temporary canine. Cone beam tomography (CBCT) observed the atypical position of the permanent canine that caused root resorption of the ipsilateral central incisor and the need to extract both teeth. The conservative treatment of the bone structures during the dental enucleation of the impacted canine carried out by odontosection and the immediate bone grafting of the defect projected an acceptable regeneration of the bone volume for the insertion of the implant. The orthodontic treatment managed to correct the bite, position the upper premolar in the place of the canine tooth and maintain the space to place the implant in the central incisor. The three-year follow-up shows maintenance of the peri-implant crestal bone level, the success of orthodontic treatment with recovery of the patient’s function and aesthetics.展开更多
