Aim: The positioning of dental implants simultaneous to the elevation of the maxillary sinus in ridges with severe bone resorption (≤4mm) is a surgical technique that reduces operative times. However, it is considered sensitive, being dependent on the operator, and in the absence of appropriate handling, complications can occur. This study aimed to provide a review of the literature on the survival of dental implants and intra- and post-operative complications in maxillary sinus lift procedures with the simultaneous placement of a dental implant in ridges with severe bone resorption. Materials and methods: A bibliographic search of the literature published in the last 10 years in the Medline-Pubmed, EBSCO HOST and SCOPUS databases was carried out from May to June 2019. This was complemented with a manual search in journals specialized in Periodontology and Oral Surgery Q1, positioned i...

The mandibular torus is a bony exophytic growth located in the lingual area of the mandible. While this growth is generally bilateral, it can be associated with temporomandibular disorders. I It affects pronunciation, produces halitosis, interferes with swallowing, and causes pain in themucosa under poorly designed prostheses. Normally, treatment is not necessary, except in cases with prosthetic needs, functional problems, food retention, phonetic disorders or if it is to be used as an autologous bone graft. The aim of this study was to perform a bilateral mandibular torusexcision in a systemically compromised patient for subsequent rehabilitation with a removable partial denture. A 66-year-old female presenting a bilateral mandibular torus attended our dental clinic. After achieving the diagnosis and analyzing the scientific evidence available, the bilateralmandibular torus was atraumat...

Introduction: Bone defects hinder implant positioning. Vertical bone deficiency is the most challenging clinical treatment due to the technique's high sensitivity and frequent Intra and postoperative complications. Alternative therapy for vertical defects is guided bone regeneration with simultaneous implantation; however, few studies have evaluated its effectiveness over time. Objective: To evaluate peri-implant tissue stability in a dental implant simultaneouslypositioned in an aesthetic zone of an area of zone vertical bone regeneration 3 years after functional load. Case Presentation: A 62-year-old male presented with the absence of the right lateral incisor and a vertical bone defect of 3mm. His initial condition affected the relation of zenith points, causing disharmony. After case evaluation, vertical guided bone regeneration and simultaneous dental implants were performed to obta...
