Platelet-rich plasma and resorbable membrane for prevention of periodontal defects after deeply impacted lower third molar extraction.

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: The extraction of deeply included third molars may cause multiple periodontal defects at the distal root of the second molar. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a material containing autologous growth factors, which may be used in repairing and ... Read more...

Influence of different suturing techniques on periodontal health of the adjacent second molars after extraction of impacted mandibular third molars.

30 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to compare the effects of different suturing techniques (simple loop suture vs. anchor suture) on the periodontal health of the adjacent second molars after impacted mandibular third ... Read more...

Type 1 diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease: relationship to different clinical variables.

30 Mar 2009 OBJECTIVE: This study is designed to evaluate the frequency of periodontal disease in a group of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and how this relates with diabetes metabolic control, duration of diabetes, and presence of diabetic ... Read more...
