Vertical alveolar bone loss can occur over a long period after tooth loss. When the amount of alveolar bone is insufficient, installing implants of appropriate length becomes difficult. To solve...
If the volume of the horizontal alveolar bone is insufficient during the implant procedure, it is difficult to establish a fixture of the required diameter without surgical procedures such as...
There are a variety of prosthetic methods for restoring edentulous patients. Among them, the dental implant is a stable and easily applicable option. When the remaining bone is insufficient for...
Bone augmentation should be performed to recover a sufficient amount of bone before implant placement at the site where a bone defect occurs due to bone resorption caused by tooth...
Edentulism following extraction of existing teeth due to dental caries, severe periodontal disease, or surgical damage can be treated with implants using complete dentures, implant-supported overdentures, or fixed implant-supported prostheses....
No study has examined the effectiveness of backboards and air deflation for achieving adequate chest compression (CC) depth on air mattresses with the typical configurations seen in intensive care units....
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between removable dentures and swallowing and describe risks.
METHODS: Twenty-four patients with removable dentures who were referred for videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) were enrolled. We evaluated...
PURPOSE: During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), chest compression (CC) depth is influenced by the surface on which the patient is placed. We hypothesized that training healthcare providers to perform a CC...
