Filter by:This prospective cohort study aims to investigate the relationship between mandibular canal trajectory and the duration of postoperative paresthesia in patients undergoing inferior alveolar nerve lateralization. The study will assess mandibular canal trajectory using anatomic factors and evaluate nerve sensory function using subjective and objective tests. Implant success criteria will also be assessed. The study will be conducted on patients who underwent IANL due to mandibular atrophy and were unable to receive standard or short implant placement. Data will be collected at regular follow-up visits up to 1-year post-surgery.
The bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) of the mandible is one of the most used surgical techniques to achieve a harmonious jaw relation in the context of orthognathic surgery. Nevertheless, one of its main complications is neurosensory damage to the inferior alveolar nerve, which can cause severe impact in the quality of life on patients who suffer from it permanently. The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to provide rigorous scientific evidence of the pharmacological effect of 1) Melatonin, 2) combination uridine triphosphate (UTP), cytidine monophosphate (CMP), and hydroxycobalamin (UTP/CMP/hydroxycobalamin) and 3) hydroxycobalamin regarding neurosensory disturbances incidence and persistence after BSSO.
Sagittal split osteotomy (SSO) is a common operation done to move the mandible to correct dentofacial deformities and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury and associated paresthesia is a well-known negative outcome following SSO, causing temporary or sometimes, permanent numbness in the chin and/or lip. There are limited methods to decrease the occurrence and duration of neurosensory dysfunction. Recent research has shown that platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) aids neurosensory recovery after SSO. Another method to minimize nerve injury is proximal segment grooving (PSG) to create space for the nerve to rest. This grooving method has never been formerly reported. The purpose of this study is to answer the following question: Among patients undergoing bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) for dentofacial deformity or OSA, do those who receive PRF with or without PSG, compared to those who do not, have shorter times to functional sensory recovery (FSR) of the IAN? The null hypothesis is that there is no difference among 4 treatment groups and neurosensory outcomes. The specific aims of this proposal are to 1) enroll and randomize subjects who will undergo BSSO for correction of dentofacial deformity or OSA into 4 different treatment groups (PSG with PRF, PSG alone, PRF alone, neither PSG or PRF), 2) measure objective and subjective post-operative nerve function at fixed intervals post-operatively for up to 1 year, 3) compare differences in neurosensory outcomes among treatment groups, and 4) identify other variables that might be associated with differences in neurosensory outcomes.

In many cases the bone of the edentulous posterior mandibular regions is atrophied such that sufficiently long fixtures cannot be placed without encroaching on the inferior alveolar nerve so rehabilitation of these regions with severe ridge atrophy represents anatomical, surgical, and biological difficulties, and provides a challenge to the dental surgeon. Several surgical techniques have been employed in an attempt to allow implant placement in these regions. one of these techniques is inferior alveolar nerve transposition or lateralization. The lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve has the advantages of that it allow placement of longer implants which gives better stability,but this technique has the disadvantage of high risk of temporary or permanent inferior alveolar nerve dysfunction. In most of the cases of inferior alveolar nerve lateralization it is directly repositioned on the implant surface or a bone graft is placed in between them. In a previous study on dogs found that presence of a resorbable membrane between the inferior alveolar nerve and the implant surface lead to the formation of a soft tissue zone between them while in the group where no membrane was used there was intimate contact between them.This intimate contact may lead to the dysfunction symptoms,also the intimate contact between the implant threads and the nerve act as a source of chronic irritation. Platelet rich fibrin membrane is a platelet concentrate which allow slow and sustained release of high quantities of growth factors over long period of time thus improves healing of hard and soft tissue and optimizing wound healing. in this study we will assess the effect of platelet rich fibrin membrane on the improvement of the neurosensory disturbances which occur after inferior alveolar nerve lateralization which considered as the main disadvantage of this technique.
Patients who have mandibular deformity and will undergo bilateral sagittal split osteotomy will be included in the study.One side of the osteotomies randomly will be considered as study group and another side as a control group.In the study group , platelet rich fibrin will be placed after osteotomy and before rigid fixation.In the control group, fixation will be done without Platelet-rich Fibrin (PRF).Neurosensory disturbance will be evaluated 6 and 12 months after surgeries.
