Attenuation of orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption by using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound as a therapeutic modality- a systematic review

Ultrasound is an effective tool for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. As an imaging tool, ultrasound has mostly been used for real-time noninvasive diagnostic imaging. As ultrasound propagates through a material, a reflected radio-frequency (RF) signal is generated when encountering a mismatch in acoustic impedance. While traditionally recognized for its diagnostic imaging capabilities, the application of ultrasound has broadened to encompass therapeutic interventions, most notably in the form of Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS). Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) is a form of mechanical energy transmitted transcutaneously by high-frequency acoustic pressure waves. The intensity of LIPUS (30 mW/cm2) is within the range of ultrasound intensities used for diagnostic purposes (1–50 mW/cm2) and is regarded as non-thermal, non-destructive, permeating living tissues and triggering a cascade of biochemical responses at the cellular level. The LIPUS device produces a 200 µs burst of 1.5 MHz acoustic sine waves, that repeats at a modulation frequency of 1 kHz and provides a peak pressure of 30 mW/cm2. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) forms one of the currently available non-invasive healing-enhancing devices besides electro-stimulation (pulsed electro-magnetic field, PEMF). This modality has been leveraged to enhance drug delivery, expedite injury recovery, improve muscle mobility, alleviate joint stiffness and muscle pain, and enhance bone fracture healing. Although LIPUS has been embraced within various medical disciplines, its integration into standard dental practices is still in its nascent stages, signifying an unexplored frontier with potentially transformative implications. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has emerged as an attractive adjuvant therapy in various dental procedures, such as orthodontic treatment and maxillary sinus augmentation. Its appeal lies in its simplicity and non-invasive nature, positioning LIPUS as a promising avenue for clinical innovation. One particular area of interest is orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR), an oftenunavoidable outcome of the orthodontic intervention, resulting in the permanent loss of root structure. Notably, OIIRR is the second most common form of root resorption (RR), surpassed only by root resorption related to pulpal infection. Given the high prevalence and potential long-term consequences of OIIRR, this literature review seeks to evaluate the efficacy of LIPUS as a therapeutic approach, with an emphasis on assessing its capacity to reduce the severity of OIIRR to a level of clinical significance. To conduct this systematic review, a comprehensive automated literature search was executed across multiple databases, including MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Web of Knowledge, Scopus, CINAHL, LILACS, SciELO, Cochrane, PubMed, trials registries, 3ie, and Google Scholar. Both forward and backward citation tracking was employed, encompassing studies published from database inception through January 2009 to April 2023. The review focused on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that specifically evaluated the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound therapy on orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR), without restrictions of publication date. A stringent selection criterion was applied, and only studies demonstrating high levels of statistical significance were included. Ultimately, fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were subjected to further analysis. The overall quality of the included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was rigorously assessed utilizing the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. This analysis revealed certain methodological limitations that posed challenges in drawing definitive conclusions from the available evidence. Despite these constraints, the review offers invaluable insights that can inform and guide future research. Specifically, it delineates recommendations for targeted populations, necessary interventions, appropriate outcome measures, suitable study designs, and essential infrastructure to facilitate further investigations. The synthesis of these insights aims to enhance the development and application of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound therapy within the field of dentistry, thereby contributing to improved patient outcomes.

Correlation Analysis of the Anatomical Structures Related to Maxillary Sinus Augmentation

Aims: Preoperative evaluation of maxillary sinus anatomy is crucial to minimize procedural complications. The aim of this study was to assess the anatomical structures associated with sinus augmentation and investigate the correlation between these structures. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included cone-beam computed tomography scans of patients referred for the reconstruction of the posterior maxilla with dental implants. The intraosseous anastomosis (PIA) and septa were evaluated on the images. Lateral wall thickness (LWT), the diameter of the PIA (DIA), the vertical distance of the PIA to the sinus floor (DSF), and sinus floor angle (SFA) were also measured. Results: A total of 250 sinuses were examined. PIA was detected in 46.8% of the sinuses. The mean SFA value was 77.11° ±11.11° (range 48.25°–112.33°). The LWT ranged from 0.63 to 10.23 mm with a mean value of 1.35 ± 0.79 mm. Of 250 sinuses, 82 (32.8%) showed septa. A strong negative correlation was found between SFA and PIA detection (r = 0.98, P = 0.008), SFA and DSF (r = 0.99, P = 0.000), and SFA and septa (r = 0.98, P = 0.000). LWT showed a positive correlation with DIA (r = 0.72, P = 0.082), although not statistically significant. Conclusions: The relationships highlight the combined effect of the structures on membrane perforation. As this makes the lateral window approach more problematic, the surgeon may seek minimally invasive approaches. Moreover, the strong correlation of SFA-PIA-DSF may significantly affect graft vascularization and needs to be evaluated with clinical studies.

Pilot study of fractal dimension analysis of osteogenesis for bone substitute materials of Bio-Oss in lateral sinus augmentation.

Fractal dimension (FD) analysis has been proposed and validated in osseointegration-related research. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of FD analysis in the osteogenesis detection of bone substitute materials (BSMs) of Bio-Oss in maxillary lateral sinus augmentation. Patients who received lateral maxillary sinus augmentation and underwent grafting with BSMs (Bio-Oss) were included in the study. The cross sections of the BSMs under cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) at mesial, distal, and sagittal directions were obtained immediately after the graft (T0) and 6 months later (T1), and the obtained images were cropped to include only the BSMs. The FD analysis was performed, and the FD value was obtained by the method of box-counting. Paired t-tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used, and p-values <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Twelve participants with 22 implants, which were inserted simultaneously after sinus augmentation, were included in this study. A total of 22 mesial, 22 distal, and 14 sagittal images were obtained after FD analysis. The mean FD value and standard deviation at T0 was 1.2860 ± 0.0896, while at T1, it was 1.2508±0.1023; thus, significant differences were detected (p = 0.022). However, the increasing or decreasing trend of FD value was not stable, and no significant difference was detected for FD values of mesial, distal, and sagittal images between T0 and T1. ANOVA indicated that no significant difference was detected among the FD values of mesial, distal, and sagittal images at any timepoint. Differences in FD values between the sexes were not significant either. Since the FD analysis for the osteogenesis detection of BSMs in maxillary sinus augmentation indicated unstable trends of change, its feasibility is not reliable. The initially rough surface, self-degradation, and volume change of the BSMs during osteogenesis may be the reason for the variation in FD values.

Prediction of the bone volume for sinus augmentation through 3-dimensional analysis

Background/purposeNo consensus has been established regarding the exact amount of bone grafting in maxillary sinus augmentation. The aim of this study was to estimate the minimum bone volume for sinus augmentation and to investigate the factors that influence the augmentation volume (AV). Materials and methodsThis study included patients with cone-beam computed tomography scanning. Dome-shaped sinus augmentation was performed virtually at vertical heights (VH) of 3, 5, 7, and 9 mm in Group A (without implantation) and Group B (with implantation). The augmentation angle (AA) and the sinus width (SW) were measured. The AV was measured using the three-dimensional image processing program 3D Slicer. Univariable and multivariable analyses were conducted. ResultsThis study included 30 patients (120 subjects). In Group A, the mean AVs were 0.062, 0.271, 0.642, and 1.287 cc at VHs of 3, 5, 7, and 9 mm, respectively, in Group B, the mean AVs were 0.037, 0.230, 0.594, and 1.230 cc. Univariable analysis indicated that factors significantly associated with the AV in both groups included SW, AA, and VH (P < 0.001). Multivariable analysis indicated that factors significantly associated with the AV in both groups included AA and VH (P < 0.01). ConclusionClinicians can predict the bone volume for sinus augmentation by measuring the augmentation height and angle.

Deep learning-based automatic segmentation of bone graft material after maxillary sinus augmentation.

To investigate the accuracy and reliability of deep learning in automatic graft material segmentation after maxillary sinus augmentation (SA) from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. One hundred paired CBCT scans (a preoperative scan and a postoperative scan) were collected and randomly allocated to training (n = 82) and testing (n = 18) subsets. The ground truths of graft materials were labeled by three observers together (two experienced surgeons and a computer engineer). A deep learning model including a 3D V-Net and a 3D Attention V-Net was developed. The overall performance of the model was assessed through the testing data set. The comparative accuracy and inference time consumption of the model-driven and manual segmentation (by two surgeons with 3 years of experience in dental implant surgery) were conducted on 10 CBCT scans from the test samples. The deep learning model had a Dice coefficient (Dice) of 90.36 ± 2.53%, a 95% Hausdorff distance (HD) of 1.59 ± 0.82 mm, and an average surface distance (ASD) of 0.38 ± 0.11 mm. The proposed model only needed 7.2 s, while the surgeon took 19.15 min on average to complete a segmentation task. The overall performances of the model were significantly superior to those of surgeons. The proposed deep learning model yielded a more accurate and efficient performance of automatic segmentation of graft material after SA than that of the two surgeons. The proposed model could facilitate a powerful system for volumetric change evaluation, dental implant planning, and digital dentistry.

Auto-dentin platelet-rich fibrin matrixis an alternative biomaterial for different augmentation procedures: A retrospective case series report.

Autologous dentin grafts derived from extracted teeth have shown promise as bone graft materials for promoting bone regeneration. This retrospective case series aimed to evaluate clinical, radiographic, and histologic outcomes of using autologous dentin matrices in various bone regeneration procedures. This case series included 26eligible patients and encompassed 4 socket preservation cases, 5 cases of guided tissue regeneration, 5 cases of guided bone regeneration (GBR), 10 cases of sinus augmentation procedures, 2 immediate placement implants, and 2 socket shields. Dentin grafts were prepared from extracted teeth, cleaned, and processed. These grafts were combined with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to create adhesive dentin matrices, then covered with collagen membranes for simultaneous guided bone augmentation cases. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were conducted before surgery and 4 months postoperatively to assess ridge dimensions. Histologic evaluation was performed through bone core biopsies for socket preservation cases at the 4-month mark. A total of 42implants were placed in 26 patients, with an average follow-up of 32 months. Notably, two implant failures occurred following lateral maxillary sinus augmentation. CBCT scans at the 4-month interval revealed bone coverage over implant platforms in the majority of cases. Histologic analysis from two cases of socket preservation demonstrated dentin granules enveloped by newly formed bone undergoing continuous remodeling. The quantitative histomorphometric assessment revealed a bone area of 42.8 ± 3.56%, a remaining graft area of 19.05 ± 4.58%, and a viable bone of 38.15 ± 7.84%. The utilization of autologous dentin particles mixed with PRF proved effective as an alternative to conventional bone graft materials in GBRand maxillary sinus augmentation procedures. Larger controlled clinical trials are recommended to further substantiate these findings.

Restoratively driven planning for implants in the posterior maxilla - Part 1: alveolar bone healing, bone assessment and clinical classifications

Sinus augmentation in conjunction with implant placement is widely considered to be a predictable and successful treatment option for the edentulous posterior maxilla. However, the anatomical changes of the posterior maxilla following tooth extraction (namely alveolar atrophy and pneumatisation of the maxillary sinus) creates unique challenges for implant and prosthodontic rehabilitation. A large volume of literature has been published regarding the surgical indications and treatment planning for implants in the posterior maxilla. In comparison, there is a relative paucity of literature regarding the prosthodontic challenges associated with implants placed in augmented maxillary sinuses. This article describes the scientific background of native and grafted alveolar bone healing in relation to implant rehabilitation. Furthermore, clinical classifications available to assist implant treatment planning are described.

Change in Maxillary Sinus Mucosal Thickness in Patients with Preoperative Maxillary Sinus Mucosal Thickening as Assessed by Otolaryngologists: A Retrospective Study.

Background and Objectives: Maxillary sinus pathologic conditions may increase the risk of complications during posterior maxillary sinus augmentation surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in participants with preoperative maxillary sinus mucosal thickening and to assess this factor as a preoperative risk indicator for sinusitis after maxillary dental implantation. Materials and Methods: We compared the preoperative and postoperative maxillary sinus mucosal thickness (MSMT), the distance between the maxillary sinus ostium and sinus floor (MOD), and the MSMT/MOD ratio. The participants were divided into three groups (sinus augmentation, bone grafting, and no grafting). Results: The mean preoperative MSMT was 4.3 ± 2.0 mm, and the mean MSMT/MOD ratio was 0.13 ± 0.05. No postoperative sinusitis was observed in these patients, including cases caused by anatomical variations. The mean postoperative MSMT was 4.5 ± 2.3 mm, and the mean postoperative MSMT/MOD ratio was 0.15 ± 0.06. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups at each time point (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The study found no significant change in MSMT at post-treatment evaluation, even when considering different subgroups. It underscores the importance of preoperative maxillary sinus radiographic assessments and collaboration between dentists and otolaryngologists for better outcomes in patients with preoperative maxillary sinus mucosal thickening.

The Effectiveness and Practicality of a Novel Barrier Membrane for the Open Window in Maxillary Sinus Augmentation with a Lateral Approach, with Risk Indicators for Bone Graft Displacement and Bone Height Decrease: A Prospective Study in Humans.

Maxillary sinus augmentation with a lateral approach (MSA) is a well-established treatment. In this prospective study, we evaluated risk factors for postoperative bone graft displacement and reported the clinical application of long-term resorbable L-lactic acid/-caprolactone (PLA/PCL) as a barrier membrane to cover the open window in the lateral wall in MSA. Twenty-four patients underwent MSA according to the relevant criteria; CT data obtained before and 1 week (1 w) and 5-6 months (5 m) post-MSA, bone height changes, bone height reduction rates at 1 w and 5 m post-MSA, bone graft displacement measurements, and risk factors were examined. All patients showed bone height increments (p < 0.005). However, no difference was observed between 1 w and 5 m post-MSA. Bone graft displacement was observed in eight patients; the reduction rate from 1 w to 5 m post-MSA was 8.38% ± 4.88%. Sex, septa, maxillary sinus floor-palatal bone distance, and maxillary sinus floor-maxillary ostium distance were associated with bone graft displacement (p < 0.05). The height from the maxillary sinus floor to the palatal bone and the sinus angle influenced the augmentation degree (p < 0.05). The PLA/PCL membrane is compared favorably with other membranes and may be useful as a barrier membrane for the MSA open window.

Minimally invasive maxillary sinus augmentation for single dental implant restoration: a case report

This clinical case aims to report a minimally invasive approach for maxillary sinus augmentation for first-molar replacement with a dental implant. A 61-year-old male presented to dental clinic with missing upper right first molar. Panoramic x-ray (OPG) showed insufficient posterior maxillary bone with a residual alveolar bone height&lt;4 mm. The patient underwent a minimally invasive sinus floor elevation and augmentation. Three months postoperatively, and a dental implant (⌀ 4.1×12 mm, bone level, straumann) was placed successfully. Thereafter, at 3-months post-implantation, the final restoration was accomplished. A 12-months follow-up demonstrated satisfactory clinical outcome. In conclusion, the present case-report demonstrates the advantages of the presented technique for sinus augmentation and dental implant restoration with high precision and promising result, in similar cases with a residual alveolar bone height &lt;5 mm.

How to Prevent and Manage Postoperative Complications in Maxillary Sinus Augmentation Using the Lateral Approach: A Review.

Maxillary sinus augmentation with a lateral approach is known to present more postoperative complications than other atrophic posterior maxilla treatment modalities because it is more invasive. These complications include infections that occur in the form of chronic or acute sinusitis. According to the literature, the frequency of these complications ranges from 3% to 5%. They can result from an inadequate management of intraoperative complications or from a poor evaluation of maxillary sinus particularities and pathology before the surgery. Therefore, the prevention of postoperative complications lies in the selection of cases that will allow for the identification and evaluation of infectious risk. Only a multidisciplinary approach that includes an implantologist, a rhinologist, and the treating physician will allow this. On the other hand, in infectious complication cases, the intervention of the otorhinolaryngologist (ENT) specialist is necessary. Based on the available literature and the author's experience, the methodology described in this article will allow for the prevention and management of postoperative complications related to this surgical technique.

Early tissue and healing responses after maxillary sinus augmentation using horizontal platelet rich fibrin bone blocks

BackgroundThe effects of horizontal platelet-rich fibrin (H-PRF) bone block on the healing and immune response during sinus augmentation have not been fully investigated histologically at early time points.MethodsEighteenth male New Zealand white rabbits underwent bilateral sinus augmentation and were divided into two groups: deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) alone and H-PRF + DBBM (H-PRF bone block) group. Maxilla samples were collected at 3, 7 and 14 days post sinus augmentation procedures and analyzed using histological staining for the number of inflammatory cells, new blood vessels and evidence for early osteoclast bone turnover/remodeling. Furthermore, the effects of H-PRF bone blocks on the migration of osteoblasts and THP-1 macrophages were evaluated using a Transwell assay in vitro.ResultsA higher number of immune cells were found in the H-PRF bone block group at 3 and 7 days post-surgery when compared to the DBBM alone group,most notably in the regions close to the mucosal lining and bone plates. Furthermore, a significantly greater number of new blood vessel formations and early signs of osteoclast development were found in the H-PRF bone block group at 14 days. The in vitro transwell assay further confirmed that culture medium from H-PRF bone block markedly promote the migration of osteoblasts and THP-1 macrophages.ConclusionsThe findings from this study have shown that H-PRF bone block is capable of increasing early immune cell infiltration leading to the acceleration of neovascularization and speeding the process of bone metabolism in vivo following maxillary sinus grafting with DBBM.

Clinical, radiographic, and histological/histomorphometric analysis of maxillary sinus grafting with deproteinized porcine or bovine bone mineral: A randomized clinical trial.

The present study aimed to compare histomorphometrically evaluated new bone formation, radiographically measured graft stability, and clinical implant outcome between maxillary sinus grafting with either deproteinized porcine bone mineral (DPBM) or deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM). Thirty maxillary sinuses were initially included and randomly assigned to the test group (TG; DPBM, n = 15) or control group (CG; DBBM, n = 15). After a healing period (6 months), axially retrieved bone biopsies of the molar region were used for histological/histomorphometric analysis of new bone formations. Additionally, radiographically measured graft stability and clinical implant outcome were assessed. Twenty-three sinus sites with 10 sinuses of the TG and 13 of the CG were ultimately available for data and statistical analysis. In the TG, a slightly, but yet significantly (p = .040) higher proportion of new bone formation (TG: 27.7 ± 5.6% vs. CG: 22.9 ± 5.1%) and a lesser (p = .019) amount of connective (non-mineralized) tissue (TG: 47.5 ± 9.5% vs. CG: 56.1 ± 9.5%) was found than in the CG. However, both xenografts showed comparable (n.s.) residual bone graft (TG: 23.7 ± 7.2% vs. CG: 21.1 ± 9.85.6%), bone-to-graft contacts (TG: 26.2 ± 9.8% vs. CG: 30.8 ± 13.8%), similar graft height reduction over time (TG: 12.9 ± 6.7% CG: 12.4 ± 5.8%) and implant survival/success rate (100%). At the 3-year post-loading evaluation, the peri-implant marginal bone loss (TG: 0.52 ± 0.19 mm; CG: 0.48 ± 0.15 mm) and the peri-implant health conditions (TG: 87.5%/CG: 81.2%) did not differ between implants inserted in both xenografts used. The use of DPBM or DBBM for maxillary sinus augmentation is associated with comparable bone formation providing stable graft dimension combined with healthy peri-implant conditions.

Comparison of osteogenesis and osseointegration following implant placement with simultaneous maxillary sinus augmentation using particulate and collagenated block types of deproteinized porcine bone mineral: a radiographic and histomorphometric analysis.

This study aimed to compare osseointegration and osteogenesis after single-stage maxillary sinus augmentation with the lateral window using particulate deproteinized porcine bone mineral (PDPBM) and collagenated block deproteinized porcine bone mineral (BDPBM). Bi-maxillary premolars of six beagle dogs were extracted. Eight weeks later, an implant was placed into each augmented sinus with PDPBM or BDPBM according to a split-mouth design. Eight weeks later, all specimens were harvested. Each specimen was separated into the region of interest with the implant (ROI-I) and region of interest with sinus augmented area (ROI-S) 5mm away from ROI-I. ROI-I and ROI-S were evaluated through micro-computed tomography and histomorphometry. Bone substitute insertion took longer for the PDPBM group than for the BDPBM group (P = 0.002). In ROI-I, three-dimensional bone-to-implant contact (BIC) did not show statistically significant differences between the groups. Two-dimensional BIC also showed comparable values for both groups. In ROI-S, the graft material volume/tissue volume, trabecular bone pattern factor, and structural model index were higher in the BDPBM group than in the PDPBM group (P < 0.05). The proportions of new bone, graft material, and connective tissue were not significantly statistically different between groups. Less new bone was found in the apical area than in the coronal or middle areas in the BCPBM group (P < 0.05). BDPBM may save time in inserting bone substitutes and provide comparable osteogenesis and osseointegration to PDPBM. When performing sinus augmentation, BDPBM might improve operator's convenience with comparable biological results compared to PDPBM.

SinusC-Net for automatic classification of surgical plans for maxillary sinus augmentation using a 3D distance-guided network

The objective of this study was to automatically classify surgical plans for maxillary sinus floor augmentation in implant placement at the maxillary posterior edentulous region using a 3D distance-guided network on CBCT images. We applied a modified ABC classification method consisting of five surgical approaches for the deep learning model. The proposed deep learning model (SinusC-Net) consisted of two stages of detection and classification according to the modified classification method. In detection, five landmarks on CBCT images were automatically detected using a volumetric regression network; in classification, the CBCT images were automatically classified as to the five surgical approaches using a 3D distance-guided network. The mean MRE for landmark detection was 0.87 mm, and SDR for 2 mm or lower, 95.47%. The mean accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC for classification by the SinusC-Net were 0.97, 0.92, 0.98, and 0.95, respectively. The deep learning model using 3D distance-guidance demonstrated accurate detection of 3D anatomical landmarks, and automatic and accurate classification of surgical approaches for sinus floor augmentation in implant placement at the maxillary posterior edentulous region.

Graftless Sinus Augmentation via Crestal Sinus Floor Elevation using Densah Burs with Simultaneous Implant Placement: A Clinical Report after Two Years in Service

Maxillary sinus floor elevation is a reliable surgical procedure to establish oral rehabilitation using implant prostheses in the atrophic maxilla. Both lateral sinus floor elevation (LSFE) and crestal sinus floor elevation (CSFE) are viable to augment inadequate alveolar bone height. Still, the results of post-surgical trauma, complications, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) vary. Furthermore, combining bone grafting for maxillary sinus augmentation (MSA) is suggested to increase the volume of the alveolar ridge, yet more researches have demonstrated outcomes of the graftless method. This clinical report describes a graftless sinus augmentation with simultaneous implant placement utilizing Densah burs implementing CSFE through the osseodensification method.
