Use of Transalveolar Sutures to Maintain Vestibular Depth and Manipulate Keratinized Tissue Following Alveolar Ridge Reduction and Implant Placement for Mandibular Prosthesis

George R. Deeb; Janina Golob Deeb; Vickas Agarwal; Daniel M. Laskin

Reconstruction of the totally edentulous patient with dental implants has become routine treatment with predictable outcomes. Firm keratinized tissue surrounding the implants and adequate vestibular depth are among the determining factors for long-term implant success. In the staged approach of mandibular implant reconstruction, adequate vestibular depth and attached gingiva surrounding the implants can be readily established at the time of implant placement or when the implants are uncovered. However, when extractions and necessary mandibular ridge reduction to create adequate width are performed immediately before implant placement, maintaining adequate keratinized tissue around the implants and preventing prolapse of the vestibule can present a challenging situation. This report presents a technique that allows the surgeon to stabilize vestibular depth and at the same time position the flaps around the implants and preserve the attached gingiva.

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between burnout, depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation in dental and dental hygiene students and to evaluate the influence of gender, programme type and year of study. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Third- and fourth-year dental (DS) and first- and second-year hygiene students (DHS) completed the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and an abbreviated Maslach Burnout Inventory online as measures of depressive symptoms/suicidality and burnout, respectively. The statistical analyses included summary statistics and tests for intergroup comparisons (chi-square) to evaluate the influence of gender, programme type (DHS or DS) and year of study. Correlations between depression, suicidality and burnout were also conducted. RESULTS A total of 32 dental hygiene and 119 dental students participated. 40% of the dental and 38% of the hygiene students met criteria for burnout. No differences were found between years or between programmes. Nine per cent of both dental and hygiene students were above the cut-off for moderate depressive symptoms, but there were no statistical differences between the third- and fourth-year dental and the first- and second-year hygiene students. Six per cent of the dental and 9% of the dental hygiene students were above the cut-off for clinically significant suicidal ideation, but there were no statistical differences between dental and hygiene students. There were no differences noted in the dental students based on gender for any of the measures. Depression was significantly associated with all three subscales of burnout. Suicidal ideation was only significantly related to the lack of personal accomplishment subscale of burnout. DISCUSSION These findings suggest the need for introducing preventive measures for such affective states in dental and dental hygiene training programmes.

INTRODUCTION The popularity of adventure recreation in wilderness areas across the world continues to increase. Nevertheless, the risk of injury and illness remains significant. The purpose of this study is to analyze the mountain rescue operations performed in Slovenia between 2011 and 2015. METHODS This retrospective study reports mountain rescue operations documented by the Slovenian National Mountain Rescue Association. The annual number of ground-based and helicopter-based rescues were identified and compared. For 2015, the indication for rescue and the severity of injury were also analyzed, specifically for interventions requiring the use of a helicopter. RESULTS From 2011 through 2015, the number of rescues remained consistent with an annual average of 413 (SD ±15; range, 393-434) rescues. However, the percentage of ground-based rescues varied significantly year by year (P=0.016), with highest rate in 2014 (68%) and the lowest in 2015 (56%). In 2015, 434 mountain rescue operations were reported in Slovenia. Injury accounted for 44%, illness for 10%, and fatality for 9% of the rescues. In 37%, no illness or injury was reported. Helicopter rescue was used in 190 (44%) of all interventions. Among the 190 helicopter rescues, 49% of patients had nonfatal injuries, 29% required no medical treatment, 15% had illness, and 7% had fatal injuries. CONCLUSIONS A significant number of mountain rescue operations were conducted in Slovenia from 2011 through 2015. Most of these were needed for injured, ill, or deceased persons. A notable number of rescues in 2015 required a helicopter.

Cirrhosis is associated with a systemic proinflammatory milieu, endotoxemia, and gut dysbiosis. The oral cavity could be an additional source of inflammation. We aimed to determine the effect of periodontal therapy in cirrhosis through evaluating endotoxemia, inflammation, cognition, and quality of life (QOL). Age-matched cirrhotic and noncirrhotic subjects exhibiting chronic gingivitis and/or mild or moderate periodontitis underwent periodontal therapy with follow-up at 30 days. Saliva/stool for microbial composition and serum for Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score, endotoxin and lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) and immune-inflammatory markers (IL-1β; IL-6; histatins 1, 3, 5; and lysozyme) were collected at baseline and day 30. The cognitive function and QOL were also evaluated similarly. A separate group of cirrhotic patients were followed for the same duration without periodontal therapy. Cirrhotics, especially those with hepatic encephalopathy (HE), demonstrated improved dysbiosis in stool and saliva, and improved endotoxin, LBP, and salivary and serum inflammatory mediators following periodontal therapy. These parameters, which were higher in HE at baseline, became statistically similar posttherapy. Pretherapy vs. posttherapy QOL and cognition also improved in HE patients following oral interventions. On the other hand, LBP and endotoxin increased over time in cirrhotic patients not receiving therapy, but the rest of the parameters, including microbiota remained similar over time in the no-therapy group. This proof-of-concept study demonstrates that periodontal therapy in cirrhosis, especially in those with HE, is associated with improved oral and gut dysbiosis, systemic inflammation, MELD score, and cognitive function, which was not observed in those who did not receive therapy over the same time period. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Systematic periodontal therapy in cirrhotic outpatients improved endotoxemia, as well as systemic and local inflammation, and modulated salivary and stool microbial dysbiosis over 30 days. This was associated with improved quality of life and cognition in patients with prior hepatic encephalopathy. In a cirrhotic group that was not provided periodontal therapy, there was an increase in endotoxin and lipopolysaccharide binding protein in the same duration. The oral cavity could be an important underdefined source of inflammation in cirrhosis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a three-hour hands-on workshop for medical students and residents on their pre- and postcourse knowledge and confidence in managing dental emergencies. A 1-hour lecture followed by four 20-minute “hands-on” skill stations on dental mannequins was administered to a group of 30 medical students and residents. Pre- and postworkshop questionnaire surveys were conducted. There was a significant increase in the percent of attendees who responded correctly to three of the four knowledge questions following the workshop (P-value < 0.005). Confidence, as expressed in various statements, about treating dental emergencies was significantly improved after the lecture for eight of the nine statements. These findings indicate that dental knowledge is generally not provided during medical training. Our interactive workshop appeared to be effective in increasing this knowledge and self-reported confidence in handling dental emergencies. These findings clearly indicate the need for additional dental education during medical school. The use of a hands-on workshop may be one model for achieving this goal.

Soft Tissue Grafting Around Teeth and Implants.

George R. Deeb; Janina Golob Deeb

The presence of healthy attached tissue at the tooth and implant soft tissue interface correlates with long-term success and stability in function and esthetics. There are several soft tissue grafting procedures that increase the volume of keratinized tissue and provide coverage on both teeth and implants. Many of these techniques can be used in conjunction with implant placement, or after placement as a means of salvage. This article describes the techniques for augmentation of keratinized tissue as well as root and implant coverage. These tools should be in the armamentarium of oral and maxillofacial surgeons providing implant services.
