Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to point out the value of OPG exam in pre and postoperative diagnosis assessment of maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions with the very full appreciation of surgical solutions and local integration of heterolog membranes and materials together with metallic implants used to repair the osseous defects and rehabilitate the dental status. There were statistically retrospective evaluated the pre and postoperative results of OPG exams of 47 patients with maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions clinically and biologically assessed, treated and dental rehabilitated by metallic implants at ESTETIQDENT, a dental medicine practice from Petrosani. In all cases we proceeded to surgical extraction of the non-vital teeth and ultrasonic plaques remove. In the presence of inflammatory radicular cysts, surgical radicular cysts removement and curettage of the periradicular granuloma were the elected choice together with heterolog membranes and materials repair of the osseous defects. When it was necessary, the existent prosthesis works were removed and in order to obtain the bone support, internal or external sinus lift and regional bone addition were performed for dental status rehabilitation through metallic implants. The OPG preoperative exams clearly showed the extent, the morphological characteristics and the topoanatomic reports, in all cases of maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions together with regional endodontic status. The postoperative OPG revealed the very local results of surgery procedures and the integration of heterolog membranes and materials used to repair the osseous defects and the dental status rehabilitation by metallic implants. The OPG exam is the imaging method of choice in pre and postoperative diagnosis assessment of maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions with the full appreciation of surgical solutions and local integration of heterolog membranes and materials together with metallic implants used to repair the osseous defects and rehabilitate the dental status, due to highly specific abilities in bone tissue evaluation of all maxillary skeletal and dental segments.

Summary

Introduction

The purpose of this paper is to point out the value of OPG exam in pre and postoperative diagnosis assessment of maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions with the very full appreciation of surgical solutions and local integration of heterolog membranes and materials together with metallic implants used to repair the osseous defects and rehabilitate the dental status. The OPG exam is the imaging method of choice in pre and postoperative diagnosis assessment of maxillary inflammatory and atrophic lesions with the full appreciation of surgical solutions and local integration of heterolog membranes and materials together with metallic implants used to repair the osseous defects and rehabilitate the dental status, due to highly specific abilities in bone tissue evaluation of all maxillary skeletal and dental segments. The biocompatible materials used to repair the maxillary skeletal defects are natural - autogenic (autologous bone), allogenic (bone substitute from bone bank: demineralised freeze-dried bone allograft and demineralised bone matrix) or xenogenic (bone graft from bovine, equine, porcine or the exoskeleton of coral which are chemically deproteinised but with intact mineral structure) and totally synthetic or alloplastic divided into: polymers, ceramics, metallic and composites [6]
