The iliac crest flap is the only flap that allows reconstruction of the previous dimensions of the mandible. [...] Materials and Methods: This report describes a reconstructive technique used in 12 patients who underwent segmental mandibulectomy because of soft tissue defects resulting from tumor resection. The technique involves reconstruction of the mandible using an iliac crest flap combined with a nasolabial flap to enable subsequent reconstruction of the intraoral soft tissue and immediate placement of osseointegrated implants. 8 Solutions nº 15, June 2013-May 2014 Posters Changes in General and Oral Health-Related Quality of Life in Immediate or Conventionally Loaded Dental Implants: A Nonrandomized Clinical Trial Javiel Dolz, Francisco J.

JOMI. 2014; Vol. 29, Issue 2: 341-401 Purpose: To evaluate changes in the general and oral healthrelated quality of life (using the European Quality of Life indicator and the Oral Health Impact Profile-49 [OHIP-49], respectively) of patients treated with conventionally or immediately loaded implants. Materials and Methods: This clinical trial consisted of a clinical oral examination and a questionnaire-based interview carried out before and after both surgery and definitive prosthetic rehabilitation in a consecutive sample of patients requiring dental implants.

Materials and Methods: In all, 3,786 implants placed from June 2007 to January 2013 were retrospectively evaluated. A total of 20 implants (in 20 patients) placed in pristine bone were found to have failed before loading. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were extracted from these 20 implants at baseline (immediate) and 4 months after placement (delayed). Simple linear regression, logistic regression, and two-way contingency tables were used to test for the relationships between ISQ values and early implant failure.
