Conclusions: In implant rehabilitation, in cases where there are insufficient hard and soft tissues in the esthetic zone, a combined peri-implant plastic surgery approach not only enables the ideal implant position where both function and esthetics are ensured but also provides effective protection of peri-implant tissue health.

Tricks to Saving Your Teeth and Your Wallet in the End
Dear Nurse Katz, I just graduated and I am trying to stay healthy and avoid going into medical debt. I was thinking about cutting out my dental care, but I have been told that it is just as important than seeing your primary car doctor, but insurance does not seem to cover a lot when it comes to dental care, and every time I go to the dentist, I come out with a huge bill. I want to keep my teeth until I am at least 70. What should I do? Matt Kansas City, MO Good for you for thinking ahead Matt! You should not cut out oral care all together due to the expense. Keep in mind that bad oral care today could potentially lead to expensive dentures when you are 70. In addition, many times, the condition of the mouth mimics the condition of the body as a whole. Some reports have indicated that ther…

Taking evidence-based advice
Tension exists today between those who tout autonomy of thought and action as the highest good and those who seek to impose population-wide solutions to problems based on evidence from rigorous scientific investigation. Studies show that older Americans treated aggressively to control blood pressure to 120 mm Hg or less have a diminished risk of stroke and heart attack with no adverse risk of injury from falls caused by medication compared to those whose target blood pressure is 140 mm Hg. As a result, a lower blood pressure goal is appropriate for the majority of the population over age 50 years based on scientific evidence. (Source: Dental Abstracts)

Keep the ones you’ve got
Teeth lost to disease, injury, or congenital tooth agenesis are often replaced by dental implants, with this option widely incorporated into everyday dental practice. As a result, patients have enjoyed major improvements in oral health, better function, better esthetics, and improved phonetics compared to previous outcomes. However, gathering research is exposing the adverse outcomes associated with implants. Among these are biological complications and the unpredictability of implant therapy. Is it time to revisit saving teeth as a viable option rather than simply placing implants? (Source: Dental Abstracts)
