Effects of diode laser irradiation and fibroblast growth factor on periodontal healing of replanted teeth after extended extra ‐oral dry time
ConclusionsDL, with or without FGF, reduced the occurrence of external root resorption and ankylosis. Periodontal healing was favored and some fiber reinsertion occurred only when FGF was used.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (Source: Dental Traumatology)

Drill ‐related root injury caused by intraoperative intermaxillary fixation. An analysis of 1067 screw‐applications
ConclusionIntermaxillary fixation with pre‐drilled transgingival screws is a safe way to manage mandibular fractures. The incidence of tooth root injury is not uncommon, but the adverse side effects are rare and the health of the affected teeth is mostly not compromised.This article is protected by copyright.

Bone regeneration in mandibular fractures after the application of autologous mesenchymal stem cells, a randomized clinical trial
ConclusionSimilar ossification values were obtained after 4 weeks when the use of AMSCs was compared to simple fracture reduction. However, after 12 weeks, the AMSCs group had a 36.48% higher ossification rate.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (Source: Dental Traumatology)

Appropriate fabrication method for vacuum ‐formed mouthguard
ConclusionsHeating the mouthguard sheet until the temperature reached 120°C was the best fabrication method to maintain the thickness and to obtain proper fit. It is important to control the heating temperature when fabricating vacuum‐formed mouthguards.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (Source: Dental Traumatology)

Impalement of an unusual foreign body on the temporomandibular joint causing severe trismus
Abstract A penetrating injury by a foreign body is comparatively common in the oral and maxillofacial region. On the other hand, injury to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) by a foreign object is very rare. The TMJ is an anatomically narrow space surrounded by hard bony processes. An unusual case of trauma with severe trismus caused by a foreign body that impaled the TMJ is reported. A 55‐year‐old man presented with a 5 × 1‐cm laceration to the right cheek caused by a flying object propelled during the use of a lawn mower. The edge of the foreign body had a metallic wire, which became imbedded in the wound. His jaw ...

Blood concentration of prilocaine and lidocaine after the use of topical anesthesia (Oraqix ®) in lacerated wounds
ConclusionWhen Oraqix® was applied directly into the skin laceration, the plasma concentration of lidocaine and prilocaine was significantly increased as compared to when applied on intact skin. The present study, albeit in mice, indicates that the plasma levels of lidocaine and prilocaine can reach very high levels when the thermosetting gel Oraqix® is placed directly in wounds.
