Abstract: The presence of oral epithelial dysplasia cannot be established by clinical examination of suspicious lesions, and, therefore relies on biopsy followed by histopathological examination of the tissues.
Since biopsy is an invasive method, the existence of other diagnostic techniques, less invasive but at the same time as accurate as histopathologic examination, are of value.
Toluidine blue has been used in the detection of neoplastic and pre-neoplastic lesions for the past few decades and its diagnostic value still remains uncertain, especially in what concerns to the detection of mild and moderate dysplastic lesions.
The purpose of this article is to review the available literature on the use of toluidine blue in order to assess its relevance in the non-invasive diagnosis of oral malignancy and pre-malignancy.

Aumentos Ósseos em Implantodontia – Capítulo 15
A filosofia de tratamento do nosso grupo é totalmente favorável à realização de reconstruções teciduais (tanto óssea quanto tecido mole), para posterior reabilitação implantossuportada dos pacientes com atrofia severa nos maxilares. No entanto, entendemos que o implantodontista deve conhecer e estar apto a praticar (ou pelo menos a diagnosticar e encaminhar) alternativas de tratamento que também podem beneficiar o paciente.
Aumentos Ósseos em Implantodontia – Capítulo 11
A forma tradicional/clássica de tratamento dos rebordos atróficos é por meio do uso de blocos ósseos autógenos, através dos quais é possível obter bons resultados. No entanto, essa modalidade de tratamento é associada a um maior índice de exposição do enxerto ao meio bucal (principalmente nos caos de defeitos verticais), dificuldade de adaptação do enxerto ao leito recetor (em casos de rebordos irregulares), maior morbidade e maior dificuldade no posicionamento/fixação desses blocos ao nível da crista óssea, o que por vezes não proporciona um resultado homogéneo do rebordo, dificultando a implantação.
