Correction of periodontal abnormalities as a preliminary phase of oral rehabilitation.

The elimination of etiological factors and the correction of periodontal abnormalities are often a necessary preliminary phase of oral reconstruction. The development of optimal gingival and bony qualities using the surgical procedures outlined when indicated improves the prognosis of prospective abutment teeth and additionally may improve esthetics, retention, and maintenance of a fixed restoration.

[Dean's alveolotomy for the correction of maxillary protrusion with periodontal disease].

The method of intraseptal alveolotomy which was introduced by Dean and has meanwhile been further improved, enables us to correct maxillary protrusion when teeth cannot be retained. The various phases of the operation are described on the basis of our own experience. In many cases an additional excision of the labial frenulum with partial extension of the vestibulum appears to be indicated. This should, however, be performed in a second operation. Special attention is called to the simultaneous correction of a deep bite in the lower anteriors which is frequently the cause of periodontal damage of the maxillary teeth.

Ridge augmentation: an evaluation and follow-up report.

An evaluation was made of results of follow-up studies, ranging from nine months to about 3 1/2 years, of six patients who had mandibular ridge augmentations at the University of Minnesota Hospitals. Clinical observations, patients' subjective feelings, and measurements of vertical loss of the original graft were the main considerations in the studies. Although there was almost continual resorption of the bone grafts after surgery patients were satisfied with the procedure and the current dental function.

[The prosthetic care of the mandible after absolute raising of the alveolar crest by means of visor-osteotomy].

An operative method for raising the alveolar ridge of the mandible is described. In connection with vestibuloplasty and lowering of the floor of the mouth, it provides a significantly improved base for dentures without involving the risks of free bone transplantation. In prosthetic treatment the temporarily disturbed sensitivity should be borne in mind. Follow-ups repeated after short intervals are necessary. Data on long-term experience is not yet available.

Inferior-border rib grafting for augmentation of the atrophic edentulous mandible.

Use of inferior-border grafting eliminates many of the problems associated with transoral onlay graft procedures. With an inferior-border graft, the graft does not bear the direct pressure of a prosthesis and allows for increase in mandibular height without as much loss of vestibule as in a transoral graft. A skin-graft vestibuloplasty is performed 6 to 12 months after rib grafting but the patient can wear a denture in the interim.

One-stage interpositional bone grafting and vestibuloplasty of the atrophic maxilla.

A technique of one-stage autogenous bone grafting and submucous vestibuloplasty for reconstruction of the atrophic maxillary alveolar ridge has been presented. The advantages are described. Use of this procedure has currently been limited; however, initial success indicates this may be a valuable technique for use in the atrophic maxilla.
