Introduction: Recently, bone graft materials prepared from permanent teeth have come into focus, and clinical and histological outcomes of this material have been confirmed by some studies. The aim of present study is to evaluate the characteristics of autogenous tooth graft material to use as a bone graft.
Material And Methods: Extracted teeth were taken into consideration with the informed consent from the patients. Immediately after extraction, teeth were processed with a novel technique to prepare the graft. Characteristics of this tooth graft material were then compared with those of DFDBA graft with the use of SEM and EXD study.
Result: SEM and EXD studies have shown the similarity in surface characteristics and elemental composition when compared to novel DFDBA graft.
Conclusion: Autogenous tooth graft should can be a good alternative to other graft materials.

Few reports exist in dentistry about the use of general anesthesia in children after liver transplant. In this paper, we report our experience utilizing general anesthesia for oral surgery in a 9-year-old girl who had undergone living donor liver transplantation. She was diagnosed with hepatoblastoma at 4 months of age and underwent a living donor liver transplant at 7 months of age.

Aim: Prickle planar cell polarity (PCP) protein 2 (Prickle2) encodes a homologue of Drosophila prickle and is involved in the non-canonical Wnt/PCP signalling pathway. However, its exact role in dentinogenesis remains unclear. Dentinogenesis, a key process in tooth morphogenesis, involves the patterned arrangement of odontoblasts and the formation of dentine matrix along the pulp cavity.

Severe periapical cysts frequently result in tooth loss with concomitant severe alveolar bone destruction, precluding immediate implant placement. Autogenous tooth transplantation (ATT), which involves transplanting the patient's own tooth to the recipient site, offers a biological approach to reconstruct both the dentition and supporting bone structures. This report presents a 25-year-old female with a mobile, discolored maxillary right lateral incisor (#12) exhibiting grade 3 mobility due to a large periapical cyst (extending to #14 on CBCT) with root developmental arrest, secondary to Oehlers type II dens invaginatus.

Introduction And Aims: Free gingival grafting (FGG) is a common procedure in periodontal and implant therapy to augment keratinized tissue and improve esthetic outcomes. However, the effects of graft dimensions and residual tissue thickness (RTT) on palatal donor site healing remain poorly characterized, lacking standardized 3-dimensional analysis. This study aimed to quantify how these factors influence 3-dimensional tissue recovery over 6 months, with thickness recovery rate as the primary outcome.

Objective: The study aims to evaluate the course of implant treatment for congenitally missing lower -second premolars in patients referred to publicly funded specialist care over an 11-year period.
Material And Methods: This retrospective, register-based cohort study selected patient data on dental implant treatment in the lower second premolar region from 2009 to 2019 (n = 146). After applying exclusion criteria, the final sample included 74 patients.
