Abstract:
Purpose: The aim of this report was to evaluate clinically, histologically and histomorphometrically a new highly porous porcine cancellous xenograft.
Case Report: This paper will present a case report of a 63-year-old male patient, caucasian, attended the Oral-Maxillofacial Surgery consultation at Clitrofa – Centro Médico, Dentário e Cirúrgico, in Trofa – Portugal, to evaluate a white lesion in the left jugal mucosa. The treatment plan was based on anatomopathological report indicative of leukoplakia. It was decided to carry out surgical treatment of the lesion using LightWalker® Er:YAG laser from Fotona. Local anaesthetic was infiltrated into the soft tissue surrounding the lesion (Lidocaine/ Epinephrine 20 mg/ml + 0.0125 mg/ml solution for injection EFG). The Er:YAG handpiece R16 was used, 3.6 J/cm2 Energy, 10 Hz Frequency, 13.8 W Power, LP Mode.
Conclusion: After a 12-month follow-up period, the patient is pain free and the lesion has no signs of recurrence. Er:YAG laser may be considered a successful treatment modality for oral leukoplakia.

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.
