Item The clinical safety and possibility of immediate implant placement in aggressive periodontitis patients in maxillary esthetic zone: An empty systematic review(Churchill Livingstone, 2018) Yussif N.M.A.; Rahman A.R.A.; Darhous M.; Oral Medicine and Periodontology Department; Faculty of Dentistry; October University for Modern Sciences and Arts; Egypt; Oral Medicine and Periodontology Department; Faculty of Dentistry; Cairo University Diagnosis; Egypt; MSC Oral Medicine and Periodontology Department October University for Modern Sciences and Arts (MSA University); Nermin Mohammed Ahmed Yussif; EgyptPurpose. To determine the clinical possibility and success of immediate implantation in aggressive periodontitis patients. Methods. In August 2017, Pubmed, Cochrane central database, web of sciences, Lilacs and hand search were searched with no restrictions for language, publication date or follow-up period. All types of prospective studies reporting the prognosis of immediate implant placement were included. Outcomes were implant survival rate, complications during placement and postoperatively and marginal bone loss around implants. Results. After screening of the titles, abstracts and full text of the reported studies, none of those met the a priori inclusion criteria. Conclusion. There was no sufficient evidence regarding the survival rate of immediately placed dental implants in aggressive periodontitis. Long-term prospective double armed clinical studies are recommended. � 2018 CIC Edizioni Internazionali s.r.l..

Lip repositioning presents a simple method for the treatment of gummy smile. The aim of this randomized clinical trial (RCT) was to assess lip repositioning, compared to lip repositioning with muscle severance for efficacy in treatment of EGD and resultant stability. Methods: A single-blinded, controlled, parallel-group RCT was performed. Twenty patients with EGD were enrolled in the study, treated with lip repositioning with and without muscle severance. Participants were assessed for EGD reduction, changes in lip length and result stability at 3, 6 and 12 months. Additionally, pain, swelling and satisfaction, were assessed. Results: Classic lip repositioning was found capable of reducing EGD by 2.73 mm (SD 1.281), while lip repositioning with muscle severance offered an improved reduction in EGD with a mean reduction of 3.57mm (SD 1.62). Lip length, swelling and pain scores were found comparable between the two techniques. Conclusion: Lip repositioning is an effective method for treating EGD, however, muscle severance provides a more stable result at 12 months when compared to the classical technique. More studies are necessary to fully assess this procedure. 2018 American Academy of Periodontology.
