Surgical Research in Implant Dentistry A comprehensive overview of surgical research in implant dentistry, focusing extensively on preclinical studies using various animal models such as rats, mice, rabbits, swine, canines, sheep, and goats, detailing their anatomical considerations and surgical procedures. The text also explores the biomechanics of implants, including material properties like titanium and zirconia, and standardized testing methods like the ISO 14801 protocol. Furthermore, it addresses clinical investigation methodologies, contrasting randomized controlled trials with observational cohort and case-control studies, and discusses the challenges of translating basic science to clinical practice. Finally, the sources examine different imaging techniques like CBCT and the use of bone grafting materials and membranes, including the biological responses involving macrophages and giant cells in osseointegration.

Surgical Approaches to the Facial Skeleton Focusing on detailed anatomical and technical descriptions of various procedures for accessing the bones of the face. The text, authored by Edward Ellis III and Michael F. Zide, covers numerous surgical techniques, including transcutaneous and transconjunctival approaches to the periorbital region, the coronal approach for the upper and mid-face, and transoral and transfacial methods for the maxilla and mandible. Emphasis is placed on esthetic outcomes and minimizing complications like nerve damage or conspicuous scarring by carefully navigating the facial anatomy, such as placing incisions in lines of minimal tension or within the oral cavity. The material is intended to serve as a resource for practitioners and especially for surgical trainees in maxillofacial and craniofacial specialties.
