This case series evaluated the facial gingival stability following single immediate tooth replacement in conjunction with subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). Implant success rate and peri-implant tissue response were also reported. Ten patients (6 male, 4 female), with a mean age of 52.1 (range  =  22.7 to 67.1) years, underwent immediate implant placement and provisionalization with SCTG and were evaluated clinically and radiographically at presurgery (T0), at the time of immediate tooth replacement and SCTG (T1), and 3 months (T2), 6 months (T3), and 12 months (T4) after surgery. Data were analyzed using the Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-ranks tests at the significance level of α  =  .05. At 1 year, 9 of 10 implants remained osseointegrated with the overall mean marginal bone change of −0.31 mm and a mean facial gingival level change of −0.05 mm. The modified plaque index scores showed that patients were able to maintain a good level of hygiene throughout the study. The papilla index score indicated that at T4, more than 50% of the papilla fill was observed in 89% of all sites. When proper 3-dimensional implant position is achieved and bone graft is placed into the implant-socket gap, favorable success rate and peri-implant tissue response of platform switching implants can be achieved following immediate tooth replacement in conjunction with subepithelial connective tissue graft.

Talon cusp is a rare dental anomaly that appears as a cusp-like projection on anterior teeth. Although numerous articles considering this anomaly have been published, this report has displayed a unique presentation of talon cusp. This case series is the first report in literature on which talon cusp has been presented in multiple siblings which highlights the genetic/familial component of the etiology. The report has also displayed unfamiliar morphological appearance (heart shape) of the talon cusp. Furthermore, talon cusp has shown an association with taurodontism in this report. Taurodontism has never been mentioned in the previous literature among the odontogenic variations that may associate talon cusp. A 25-year-old male has presented with talon cusps on the palatal surface of anterior teeth. Family history revealed four of his siblings had the same anomaly on anterior teeth. Talon cusps in the five cases cause clinical problems like occlusal interference, displacement and proclination of the anterior tooth, caries in the grooves delineating talon cusp, or pulp necrosis. Free dental treatment has been offered in the university clinic. However, they live in remote rural areas making it difficult to follow up with treatment.

Introducción: El tratamiento de la hendidura alveolar, del paciente fisurado, permite un adecuado crecimiento facial. Los injertos óseos han sido el tratamiento ideal. Sin embargo la técnica de distracción osteogénica mediante transporte óseo alveolar intraoral ha demostrado ser muy predecible. Objetivo: Describir los resultados del cierre de la Hendidura alveolar, con la técnica de transporte óseo alveolar intraoral bifocal y trifocal en pacientes labio fisurados. Diseño: Estudio retrospectivo de serie de casos. Materiales y métodos: Fueron tratados 4 pacientes con hendidura alveolar unilateral, manejados con la técnica de transporte óseo alveolar intraoral bifocal y trifocal en el año 2008 al 2009, con un seguimiento hasta el año 2014. Todos los pacientes fueron tratados con un aparato Hyrax® (Dentaurum, Alemania) modificado. Resultados: El promedio de distancia del transporte óseo requerido fue de 9,75mm (rango de 15 mm a 9 mm). Se colocaron 5 implantes dentales rehabilitados con prótesis dental fija. Conclusión: El estudio de los casos clínicos demuestra una predictibilidadelevada así como un rango de éxito alto, en los individuos tratados conesta técnica. Por tal motivo el transporte óseo alveolar intraoral es una alternativa eficaz para el tratamiento de hendiduras alveolares extensas.Introduction: The management of alveolar cleft patients, allows an adequate facial growth in cleft lip and palate patients. Bone grafts have been the gold standard treatment. However, the technique of osteogenic distraction by intraoral alveolar bone transportation has proven to be highly predictable. Objective: To describe the results of alveolar cleft management with the intraoral bifocal and trifocal alveolar bone transportation technique in cleft palate patients. Design of study: Retrospective case series study. Materials and methods: 4 patients with unilateral alveolar cleft were treated with the bifocal and trifocal intraoral alveolar bone transportation technique from 2008 to 2009. The cases were followed up until 2014. All patients were treated with a modified Hyrax® (Dentaurum, Germany) device. Results: The average distance of bone transportation required was 9.75mm (range from 15mm to 9mm). 5 dental implants with fixed dental prosthesis were placed. Conclusion: Clinical cases study demonstrated a high predictability, as well as a high success ratein individuals treated with this technique. Therefore, intraoral alveolar bone transportation is an effective alternative for the management of extensive alveolar clefts.
