Öğe The contribution to success of various methods of treatment of temporomandibular joint ankylosis (a statistical study containing 24 cases)(2005) Tanrikulu R.; Erol B.; Görgün B.; Söker M.Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis is an important joint disorder which, in addition to emerging through trauma, can also arise as a result of local and systemic infections. TMJ ankylosis which develops in childhood in particular has its own characteristics. Despite the existence of different views on the treatment of TMJ ankylosis, various techniques have been defined, and three basic techniques are currently employed: gap arthroplasty, interpositional arthroplasty and joint reconstruction. Our study is intended as a statistical inquiry into the contribution to the operation success of the three different methods of treatment. Moreover, the effect on treatment outcome of unilateral or bilateral ankylosis is also statistically evaluated. In our study, eight cases were treated with gap arthroplasty, nine with interpositional arthroplasty and seven with joint reconstruction performed by costochondral graft. As a result of our statistical evaluation, it was determined that the effect of interpositional arthroplasty on post-operative maximal interincisal mouth opening was greater than that observed with the other methods.Öğe Effects of systemic zoledronic acid administration on osseointegration of hydroxyapatite-coated and resorbable blast material surface implants in rabbit models(2012) Yaman F.; Ağaçayak S.; Atilgan S.; Benlidayi E.; Ucan M.C.; Erol B.; Kaya B.Purpose: It is unknown whether zoledronic acid (ZA) interferes with initial bone healing at implant sites. The goal of this study was to examine the effects of systemic zoledronic acid administration on osseintegration of hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated and resorbable blast material surface (RBM) implants in rabbit models. Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight male New Zealand rabbits (aged 6 to 12 months) were used in this study. Rabbits were randomly assigned to four groups. In group A, HA-coated implants were placed in the right tibia of seven rabbits. In group B, RBM-surface implants were placed in the right tibia of seven rabbits. In group C, HA-coated implants were placed in seven rabbits with intravenous (IV) administration of ZA. Finally, in group D, RBM-surface implants were placed in seven rabbits with IV administration of ZA. For groups C and D, IV zoledronic acid (0.1 mg/kg) was performed monthly during the entire osseointegration period. All of the rabbits were sacrificed 12 weeks after the implantation, and tibial specimens were harvested. Histomorphometric boneto- implant contact (BIC) analysis and the data were statistically analyzed. Results: The highest BIC percentage was detected in group D, with a mean value of 56.73% ± 1.85%, as compared with 45.80% ± 3.77% in group C, 35.11% ± 0.76% in group B, and 31.14% ± 1.04% in group A. Conclusions: Histomorphometric analyses showed significant improvement in the osseointegration of implants in the RBM-surface ZA group compared with the HA-coated ZA group. The results of this study suggest that systemic ZA administration may improve osseointegration of titanium implants in bone. © 2012 by Quintessence Publishing Co Inc.Öğe Radiological assessment of elongated styloid process and ossified stylohyoid ligament.(1996) Erol B.In this study a radiological assessment of elongated styloid processes and ossified stylohyoid ligaments was performed on 900 panoramic radiographs of 900 patients. The styloid process(s) were found to be longer than 30 mm in 12 cases; in 8 of these cases elongation was bilateral, and in 4 cases it was unilateral, making a total of 20 elongated processes out of a possible 1800--an incidence of 1.1%. The mean length of the elongated processes was 48.15 mm. Symptoms were present in one case of bilateral elongation.Öğe Tumors of the maxillofacial region in children: Retrospective analysis and long-term follow-up outcomes of 90 patients(2004) Tanrikulu R.; Erol B.; Haspolat K.The aim of this study was to carry out a retrospective analysis of maxillofacial Tumors in children and to present the lnog-term follow-up results. Our study was performed with a retrospective analysis of 90 patients under the age of 15 years with maxillofacial tumor treated in our clinic between 1985-2002. In addition, treatment modalities and long-term follow-up results of these patients were evaluated. According to our results, it was established that maxillofacial tumors were mostly observed in the 11-15 age group (39 cases, 43.3%) and on the mandible (48 cases, 53.3%). There were 21 (23.3%) odontogenic, 63 (70%) benign non-odontogenic and 6 (6.7%) malignant non-odontogenic. Mixed tumors were the most common type of the odontogenic tumors, and mesenchymal tumors were the most common non-odontogenic tumors. Surgical excision, curettage or en bloc resection were adequate for treatment of these tumors.
