Titanium implants and onlay bone graft to the atrophic edentulous maxilla: a 3-year longitudinal study.

Treatment of the atrophic maxilla using an onlay bone-grafting technique in combination with simultaneous insertion of endosteal implants (Branemark System) was performed in 17 patients. They were followed during a 3-year period. At the end of this period, 14 patients had stable bridges in use and one patient had an overdenture. Two patients had had to return to conventional dentures due to implant losses. The survival rate of the implants after 3 years use was 75%. It is concluded that, in spite of the implant losses, onlay bone grafting to the maxilla is a valuable method in cases of severe maxillary atrophy.

Osseointegration in maxillofacial prosthetics. Part II: Extraoral applications.

The application of osseointegrated fixtures to the cranial skeleton for facial prosthesis retention marks a revolutionary step in the search for the perfect soft tissue replacement. They allow present elastomer technology to be used to its greatest potential by protecting surface coloration, eliminating adhesive-induced base material degeneration, and allowing the long-term retention of fine, but weak peripheral margins. Although not all facial defect patients are candidates for this approach, the concept as applied in our present experience has proved to be a valuable replacement for available adhesive systems.

Osseointegration in maxillofacial prosthetics. Part I: Intraoral applications.

Osseointegrated implants can provide anchorage and promote prosthesis stability in a variety of oral defect situations. The application of proven TIP fixture principles and techniques to these patients has allowed high level of function to be attained with great promise for longevity.

Deformation of red blood cells in capillaries.

The shapes of red blood cells in capillary blood vessels are reinterpreted from observations of human red cells. The parachute or umbrella shape often observed is not an axisymmetric shape as formerly assumed, but is the basic biconcave disk shape of the red cell with the upstream end flattened by the pressure gradient.
