A cirurgia ortognática no tratamento da Apneia Obstrutiva do Sono: Uma revisão integrativa da literatura

The aim of this review is to survey the most recent scientific evidence on the effectiveness oforthognathic surgery in the treatment of OSA. The guiding question was: "What are the mostrecent scientific documents on the effectiveness of orthognathic surgery in the treatment ofOSA in adult patients?". Thus, the eligibility criteria consisted of only original articles relatedto the guiding question, available in full for free in any language in the last five years. Theselection of articles was carried out from searches in the PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Webof Science databases. A combination of four descriptors was used: (Orthognathic Surgery) AND(Obstructive Sleep Apnea) AND (Maxillomandibular Advancement) AND (Treatment). TheMMA is a safe effective treatment option for cases of AOS. Being the main alternative to longterm treatments for severe cases of OSA.O objetivo desta revisão é fazer um levantamento das evidências científicas mais recentes sobrea eficácia da cirurgia ortognática no tratamento da AOS.

Applications of platelet- and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Introduction: Oral and maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in the reconstruction and restoration of facial structures, seeking to improve both aesthetics and function. The use of platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) represents a notable advance, accelerating healing and improving surgical outcomes. Materials and Methods: This review covers 710 studies from various electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct and Google Scholar). The aim is to thoroughly investigate the applications of platelet- and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology. Results: The analysis reveals that L-PRF stands out as an effective autologous therapy in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Its application shows remarkable potential for accelerating the healing process, contributing significantly to the effectiveness of procedures. Discussion: L-PRF has emerged as an excellent choice in oral and maxillofacial surgery and traumatology, improving both the aesthetic and functional aspects of facial reconstructions. This highlights the relevance of this autologous therapy and its benefits in surgical practice. Conclusion: The applications of platelet and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology are fundamental and promising. This advance represents not only a means of accelerating healing, but also a significant contribution to better aesthetic and functional results in surgical procedures in this area.Introduction: Oral and maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in the reconstruction and restoration of facial structures, seeking to improve both aesthetics and function.
