Ti is also encountered in tissues adjacent to dental Ti implants, although not as extensive and fretting maybe one of the underlying mechanisms [ 30].
Morphological data on mouse odontogenesis in the upper jaw suggest an active expansion (bulging) of the adjacent non-dental mesenchyme towards the oral cavity that can end up with a passive infolding of the whole sheet of the thickened dental epithelium 14, 114 (Fig. 8g h; compare with Fig. 12a b).
The internal surface of the PDL adjacent to the dental alveolar bone is shifted along the normal to the surface of the tooth root.
In some cases, however, the hard palate mucosa adjacent to amalgam dental fillings develops blue grey macules, termed the "amalgam tattoo".
Therefore, this experiment was designed to assess the influence of PRP used as an adjunct combined with bovine-derived xenograft for the repair of bone defects adjacent to titanium dental implants in rabbits.
The aim of this study was to examine the influence of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) used as an adjunct to Bio-Oss for the repair of bone defects adjacent to titanium dental implants.
As no differences were found in the measurement between the lower CEJ and the corresponding bone peak between T1 and T2 in the study group, it appears that in these cases, bone remodelling occurs mainly adjacent to the dental roots, while the bone peak tends towards less resorption, remaining almost stable, in particular in the lower arch.
Patients as well as dentists' preferences regarding treatment options depend on several factors such as rejection to surgical procedures, treatment duration, cost, conditions of adjacent teeth or dental phobia.
In radiotherapy including the oral cavity, gingivitis is frequently observed adjacent to fixed metal dental restorations because they cause significant dose enhancement around them [12].
Of these, in particular, damaged dental root adjacent to the surgical site may be fully prevented by the operator, so care must be taken.
