Filter by:This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Ultherapy for the treatment of facial acne.
The 3F Applicator (A3F) is indicated for use in dermatological procedures requiring ablation and resurfacing of the skin, and for the treatment of facial wrinkles. This study was designed in order to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the A3F for treatment of facial wrinkles.
The purpose of this investigator-initiated study is to evaluate the facial gingival profile following immediate implant placement and provisionalization in conjunction with connective tissue graft with or without bone graft
Objective: Microbiologic etiologies of facial palsy in children were investigated. Study design: Prospective clinical study. Methods: Forty-six children aged 0-16 years with facial palsy comprised the study group. Paired serum samples and cerebrospinal fluid were tested to find indications (antibodies, growth of the microbe, or nucleic acids) of microbes putatively associated with facial palsy. The microbes tested were herpes simplex virus-1 and -2, varicella-zoster virus, human herpesvirus-6, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Borrelia burgdorferi, influenza A and B-, picorna-, cytomegalo-, parainfluenza-, respiratory syncytial-, coxsackie B5-, adeno-, and enteroviruses, Chlamydia psittaci, and Toxoplasma gondii. Besides the routine tests in clinical practice, serum and cerebrospinal fluid samples were tested with a highly sensitive microarray assay for DNA of herpes simplex virus-1 and -2, human herpesvirus-6A , -6B, -7, Epstein-Barr-, cytomegalo-, and varicella-zoster viruses.
Injuries resulting in facial trauma are common, and can have devastating consequences on your quality of life. While the facial bones can often be reconstructed, physicians strive to find better ways to accurately restore injured facial features. In this clinical trial funded by the Department of Defense, the investigators are evaluating how effectively fat grafting can restore facial features, and how the filling effect of the fat graft lasts over time in participants with visible facial injuries. All procedures for this research study will be performed at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
- The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Neuro Occlusal Rehabilitation (RNO) in patients with peripheral facial palsy (PFP) disease, noting the decrease in symptoms of masticatory dysfunction. - According to Carvalho (2009) patients with PFP have chronic unilateral masticatory preference. Santos et al. (2009) in the same year noted that these conditions can lead to problems with temporomandibular disorder. - Hypothesis- known that performing occlusal adjustment in these patients with chronic PFP, ensuring a maximum of dental contacts and a final stop of the masticatory cycle stable, providing a balanced occlusion. - dental cleaning was performed in two groups for the blind study - visual analog scale -To assess the quality of the oral functions of these patients, the investigators applied the visual analog scale(VAS) and statistically evaluated the degree of satisfaction regarding the functions of oro facial in relation to mastication and temporomandibular dysfunction. - gnathostatic models were made in the treatment group in the first and last query. - occlusal adjustment in treatment group.In the group treated occlusal adjustment was made in the teeth and applied a new (VAS) before and after treatment. The RNO, is defined as a part of medicine that operates in stomatology occlusal plane as a guide to a harmonious development of the face, chewing facilitating bilateral and alternating. (Planas, 1997). It works through selective grinding on the occlusal platform, providing an increased number of dental contacts.
This study compares the safety and efficacy of single therapy versus double therapy using the Pellevé™ Wrinkle Treatment System for the treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles in Fitzpatrick Skin Types I - IV. Safety is assessed by analysis of adverse events. Efficacy is assessed by change in Fitzpatrick score for facial wrinkles.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate chewing side preference, and lateral asymmetry of occlusal contact area and bite force of individuals with different craniofacial patterns
Face transplantation surgery is the transfer of face tissue from a deceased human donor to a patient with a severe facial deformity. Face transplantation is an innovative reconstructive procedure that has the potential to significantly improve the lives of patients with severe facial injuries. The purpose of this study is to develop the best practices for facial transplantation that will improve the outcomes of future face transplant recipients.
The purpose of this study is to apply human facial allograft transplant to the subjects with severe facial deformities or disfigurements in order to provide adequate coverage, aesthetic appearance and functional outcome.
