Assist. Prof. Dr. Uday Mahmoud, a lecturer from the Maxillofacial Surgery Branch at the college of dentistry has published two papers in Scopus Q2 journals, the first one is entitled (Evaluation of crestal sinus floor elevations using versah burs with simultaneous implant placement at residual bone height ≥ 2.0 _ < 6.0 mm: A prospective clinical study). It dealt with a future clinical study including the evaluation of the lifting of the nasal sinus in the upper jaw by bone condensation with the placement of a direct dental implant. The study was carried out based upon 17 references with follow-up cases for 6 months and it concluded the effectiveness of this method of raising the nasal sinus with the implantation of the tooth at the same time in the upper jawbone of severe atrophy. It was published in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, issued by Springer on 14/5/2022.
The second research is entitled (Differences between impression stone pouring and digital pouring in fully guided dental implant surgery: a prospective clinical study) that included a future clinical study that included a comparison between the induction method and the complete digital method of producing the surgical guide used in dental implants and by means of three-dimensional digital printing. This study was conducted based on 14 references including implanting 40 dental implants in the upper or lower jawbone of each patient. At the conclusion of the study, it was found that there were no significant differences in the accuracy of implant placement by the surgical guide for both methods, and this shows the effectiveness and accuracy of digital printing in the manufacture of the surgical guide used to place dental implants. This clinical study was published on 20/8/2022 in the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery.
