Introduction: The post-exodontic alveolar atrophy requires quality bone regeneration techniques, and therefore, it is necessary to apply platelet concentrates, which are bioactive agents in the process of preserving the alveolar bone. The use of platelet concentrates proved to be an excellent　osteoinducer since it leads to three important effects for maintaining bone structure. Objective:　To analyze the use of platelet concentrates in post-exodontic bone regeneration. Materials and　methods: A descriptive, explanatory study. A narrative review in which data was collected from 26 scientific articles published in scientific databases such as PubMed, Redalyc, ScienceDirect, and　Ovid between 2012 and 2022. Conclusions: Platelet concentrates are physiological materials that　speed up the healing time of post-extraction wounds. They are autologous since they are taken　from the p...

The odontogenic keratocystic tumor (OKT) or also currently known as odontogenic keratocyst (OK) is a benign pathology derived from the remains of the dental lamina characteristic for possessing variable amounts of desquamated keratin. It usually rises as solitary or with the presence of satellite cysts, the appearance of these satellite cysts is frequently related to the possible recurrence of OK, according to the literature, this recurrence can vary between 0 - 50%. As for the treatment stage of (OKT), it can be mentioned that at present there is a well-defined histological and clinical criterion, which facilitates its recognition and therefore its treatment. According to the literature, there are several treatment procedures that can be classified into non-conservative or radical treatments and conservative treatments accompanied by adjuvant methods. Within the nonconservative or radic...

Introducción: Los pacientes con virus de inmunodeficiencia humana son aquellos que presentan inmunodepresión debido al retrovirus tipo C, el cual puede ocasionar diversas patologías en el sistema estomatológico debido a la deficiencia en la inmunidad que presenta el huésped. Esta inmunosupresión origina que los microorganismos oportunos causen alteraciones dentro de la cavidad oral, lo que causa enfermedades periodontales, candidiasis, sarcoma de Kaposi, etc. Metodología: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica integral, basada en la identificación de información relevante disponible entre 2018 y 2024. Objetivo: El objetivo de la investigación es describir cómo la inmunosupresión del sistema inmunológico del paciente con VIH genera manifestaciones orales. Conclusión: La inmunodeficiencia causa la pérdida de integridad de la mucosa oral y daño a nivel de los tejidos perio...

Objectives: The objective of this study was to relate the CPOD index and limitation of brushing teeth in 12-year-old schoolchildren of the El Sagrario parish in 2016. Materials and Methods: The present study has a quantitative, descriptive, retrospective relational approach. The sample consisted of 155 observation files consisting of: registration number, age, sex, parish, CPOD index and limitation to brush teeth. Results: It was represented by tables and bar graphs; used the statistical analysis of Tau_b Kendall. Both sexes presented a very low level with respect to the DMFT index, in terms of impact and severity in brushing their teeth, the male sex presented a limitation with a lower percentage than the female sex. Conclusion: There was a very low correlation between the study variables.
