Surgical strategy for long-standing dislocation of the temporomandibular joint: experience with 16 medically compromised patients
We evaluated the surgical outcomes in 16 patients with long-standing dislocation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ): eight men and eight women, mean (range) age 72 (21-94) years. They all had multiple underlying diseases, either dementia or a mental disorder, and the joint had been dislocated for four weeks or longer. Manual reduction had been ineffective. They were operated on after assessments by the Department of Geriatric Medicine. The procedures were successful in 14 of the 16 patients: eminectomy...

Wavelength-dependent light transmittance in resin composites: practical implications for curing units with different emission spectra
Abstract Objectives To evaluate light transmittance as a function of wavelength for eight composite materials and compare the transmittance for blue light produced from two curing units with different emission spectra. Materials and methods Light transmittance through 2- and 4-mm-thick composite specimens was recorded in real time during 30 s of curing using...

Is there a role for pentoxifylline tocopherol in the management of advanced osteoradionecrosis of the jaws with pathological fractures? Case reports review of the literature
Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is an infrequent but serious complication of radiotherapy, especially in the head and neck region. It is a slowly progressive condition, with management in the early stages focused on symptom control, and surgery usually reserved for advanced ORN. However, established ORN is difficult to treat. The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy has recently been contested. The use of pentoxifylline in the management of ORN was first described by Delanian in 2004, but its benefits have...
