The treatment of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) with an anterior open bite (AOB) is a challenge for the clinician and often requires a multidisciplinary team of specialists. Most often, patients suffering from these conditions are young and a good functional and esthetic long-term result must be aspired. This clinical report illustrates the orthodontic, maxillofacial, restorative, and prosthodontic rehabilitation of a 20-year-old woman with a hypoplastic form of AI and an AOB malocclusion, having received treatment for the last 6 years. It included adhesive resin composite restorations, orthodontical and maxillofacial surgery with a one-piece Le Fort I osteotomy, and a genioplasty. Subsequent prosthodontic therapy consisted of 28 all-ceramic crowns whereby a solid interdigitation, a canine guidance, and consistent and regular contacts between tooth crowns could be achieved to assure a good functional and esthetic oral situation. The tooth preparation techniques guaranteed minimally invasive treatment. The patient was affected very positively. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This article describes an interdisciplinary approach to the successful treatment of a patient with a hypoplastic form of amelogenesis imperfecta over a period of 6 years. It starts with a discussion of the conservative steps taken during adolescence and concludes with the final prosthetic rehabilitation with all-ceramic crowns after reaching adulthood.

Background: Distraction of the periosteum results in the formation of new bone in the gap between the periosteum and the original bone. We postulate that the use of a barrier membrane would be beneficial for new bone formation in periosteal distraction. Methods: To selectively influence the contribution of the periosteum, a distraction plate with perforations was used alone or covered by a collagen barrier membrane. All animals were subjected to a 7-day latency period and a 10-day distraction period with a rate of 0.1 mm/day. Four animals per group with or without a barrier membrane were sacrificed at 2, 4, and 6 weeks after the end of the distraction. The height of new bone generated relative to the areas bound by the parent bone and the periosteum was determined by histomorphometric methods. Results: New bone was found in all groups. At the periphery of the distraction plate, significant differences in bone height were found between the hinge and the distraction screw for the group without barrier membrane at 2 weeks (0.39 ± 0.19 mm) compared to 4 weeks (0.84 ± 0.44 mm; P = 0.002) and 6 weeks (1.06 ± 0.39 mm; P = 0.004). Differences in maximum bone height with and without a barrier membrane were observed laterally to the distraction plate at 2 weeks (1.22 ± 0.64 versus 0.55 ± 0.14 mm; P = 0.019) and 6 weeks (1.61 ± 0.56 versus 0.73 ± 0.33 mm; P = 0.003) of the consolidation period. Conclusion: Within the limitations of the present study, the application of a barrier membrane may be considered beneficial for new bone formation induced by periosteal distraction.

Background: The relative contributions of different, potential factors to new bone formation in periosteal distraction osteogenesis are unknown. Purpose: The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of original bone and periosteum on bone formation during periosteal distraction osteogenesis in a rat calvarial model by means of histology and histomorphometry. Methods: A total of 48 rats were used for the experiment. The contribution of the periosteum was assessed by either intact or incised periosteum or an occlusive versus a perforated distraction plate. The cortical bone was either left intact or perforated. Animals were divided in eight experimental groups considering the three possible treatment modalities. All animals were subjected to a 7-day latency period, a 10-day distraction period and a 7-day consolidation period. The newly formed bone was analyzed histologically and histomorphometrically. Results: New, mainly woven bone was found in all groups. Differences in the maximum height of new bone were observed and depended on location. Under the distraction plate, statistically significant differences in maximum bone height were found between the group with perforations in both cortical bone and distraction plate and the group without such perforations. Conclusions: If the marrow cavities were not opened, the contribution to new bone formation was dominant from the periosteum. If the bone perforations opened the marrow cavities, a significant contribution to new bone formation originated from the native bone.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this prospective study on humans were to evaluate (a) the clinical outcome of alveolar distraction osteogenesis for the correction of vertically deficient edentulous mandibular ridges, (b) the clinical outcome of dental implants placed in the distracted areas, and (c) the quality and quantity of the bone that had formed in the distraction gap. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seven patients presenting vertically deficient edentulous ridges were treated by means of distraction osteogenesis with an intraoral alveolar distractor. Approximately 3 months after consolidation of the distracted segments, 20 ITI solid screw SLA implants were placed in the distracted areas. Three to 4 months later, abutments were connected and prosthetic loading of the implants started. During implant site preparation, bone biopsies were taken at the implant sites with trephine burrs for histologic and histometric analyses. RESULTS: The mean follow-up after the initial prosthetic loading was 18 months (range 12-24 months). The mean bone gain obtained at the end of distraction was 7 mm (range 5-9 mm). The cumulative success rate of implants 2 years after the onset of prosthetic loading was 95%, whereas the survival rate of implants was 100%. The newly formed bone consisted of woven bone reinforced by parallel-fibered bone with bone marrow spaces between the bone trabeculae. The bone area fraction in the distraction region ranged from 21.6% to 57.8% (38.5+/-11.7%). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: Results from this study showed that (a) distraction osteogenesis is a reliable technique for the correction of vertically deficient edentulous ridges, (b) the regenerated bone withstood the functional demands of implant loading, (c) survival and success rates of implants placed in the distracted areas were consistent with those of implants placed in native bone, and (d) there is sufficient bone volume and maturity in the distracted region for primary stability of the implant.

This literature review was performed to analyse the outcomes of clinical studies of alveolar distraction osteogenesis (DO) listed by PUBMED between January 1996 and December 2006. A PUBMED search identified 128 articles on alveolar DO. Twenty articles covering 209 cases were analysed, considering location, device and procedural parameters, rate of augmentation, aspect of final implant placement and follow up. The mean latency period was 7.26+/-2.31 days, distraction rate 0.71+/-0.27 mm/day, rate of augmentation 6.88+/-2.52 mm and consolidation period 12.22+/-5.58 weeks. A total of 469 implants were placed and followed post loading for an average of 14.19+/-11.03 months, with a survival rate of 97%. Of the different procedural parameters, only the difference between mean consolidation period for failed (8.10+/-2.51 weeks) and successful (12.43+/-5.62 weeks) implants was statistically significant (P=0.01). Use of DO may be advantageous in terms of the success rate of implants placed in augmented sites, but there is still a lack of sufficient data based on long-term follow up. Future experimental studies should evaluate the application of different methods with a view to shortening the overall treatment period and improving the performance of implants placed in distracted alveolar ridges.

Despite its growing popularity, alveolar distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a technically challenging operation. The purpose of this review is to estimate the types and frequencies of complications in alveolar DO and to identify factors associated with them. 26 reports of alveolar DO found in the PubMed database that met the criteria for inclusion were studied. 256 patients underwent 270 DO procedures; 109 complications arose in 77 patients (30%) with 77 distractions (29%). In 27/77 patients, more than 1 complication occurred. 20 complications (7%) were a consequence of surgery, 32 (12%) occurred during distraction, 22 (8%) during the consolidation period and 35 (13%) post-distraction. The most common complications were insufficient bone formation following the consolidation period (22 cases, 8%), regression of distraction distance (18 cases, 7%) and problems related to the distractor device (16 cases, 6%). The most severe complications occurred in 4 cases (2%). The type of device used and an augmentation rate of more than 0.5 mm/24 h were significantly related to insufficient bone formation and evidence of complications. This review indicates that complications in alveolar DO are frequent, but rarely cause severe problems or clinical decline. Appropriate treatment selection, surgical technique and adjusted protocol should decrease the number of complications.

Correction of complex deformities is a challenging procedure. Long-term wearing of a fixator after correction and lengthening are inconvenient and has a high rate of complication. The goals of the surgical treatment in the presented case were: (1) correction of the deformity and lengthening of the left leg by the Taylor spatial frame (TSF, Smith and Nephew, Marl, Germany); (2) reduction in the time the patient wears the TSF by changing the fixation system to a plate (lengthening then plating-LTP) and using a locking compression plate in conjunction with the 5.0 dynamic locking screws in order to accelerate bone healing.

The regenerative pathways during periosteal distraction osteogenesis may be influenced by the local environment composed by cells, growth factors, nutrition and mechanical load. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of two protocols of periosteal distraction on bone formation. Custom made distraction devices were surgically fixed onto the calvariae of 60 rabbits. After an initial healing period of 7 days, two groups of animals were submitted to distraction rates of 0.25 and 0.5 mm/24 h for 10 days, respectively. Six animals per group were sacrificed 10 (mid-distraction), 17 (end-distraction), 24 (1-week consolidation), 31 (2-week consolidation) and 77 days (2-month consolidation) after surgery. Newly formed bone was assessed by means of micro-CT and histologically. Expression of transcripts encoding tissue-specific genes (BMP-2, RUNX2, ACP5, SPARC, collagen I α1, collagen II α1 and SOX9) was analyzed by quantitative PCR. Two patterns of bone formation were observed, originating from the old bone surface in Group I and from the periosteum in Group II. Bone volume (BV) and bone mineral density (BMD) significantly increased up to the 2-month consolidation period within the groups (p < 0.05). Significantly more bone was observed in Group II compared to Group I at the 2-month consolidation period (p < 0.001). Expression of transcripts encoding osteogenic genes in bone depended on the time-point of observation (p < 0.05). Low level of transcripts reveals an indirect role of periosteum in the osteogenic process. Two protocols of periosteal distraction in the present model resulted in moderate differences in terms of bone formation.
