Deproteinized cancellous bovine bone (Bio-Oss) was placed as a grafting material for sinus floor elevation in the right posterior maxilla. After 6 months of healing, 3 cylindrical titanium-plasma coated implants were inserted. Six months later at the abutment connection, it was realized that 1 of the implants could not be reconstructed due to unfavorable positioning. This implant was removed along with a small portion of the surrounding peri-implant tissues. The specimen was processed according to standard techniques for hard tissue histology. In both the grafted area and the previously existing area of the sinus floor the bone was primarily of lamellar structure. Intimate contact between newly formed bone and the particles of the graft was present. No overt signs of resorption of the graft particles were visible. Histomorphometric analysis revealed 63% of implant-bone contact in the zone of pre-existing bone, and 73% in the grafted zone. The area density of bone amounted to 27% in the non-grafted as compared to 28% in the grafted area. In conclusion, this case report documented that deproteinized bovine bone, when used as a grafting material for augmentation of the sinus floor, may lead to proper osseointegration of a dental implant.
Objectives
The aim of this study was to translate the FACE‐Q "Rhinoplasty" module into French and validate its use for the French‐speaking population.
Design
"Satisfaction with the nose" and "Satisfaction with nostrils" questionnaires were used and translated.
Settings
We were granted permission to use the FACE‐Q rhinoplasty module by the development team. These two questionnaires constitute the rhinoplasty module of the FACE‐Q questionnaire. ISPOR and WHO recommendations were used to complete the translation process from English into French in six steps.
Main outcome measurement
Our goal was to obtain, not a literal translation, but rather a translation of the idea or concept.
Results
Each step allowed us to make changes to achieve a conceptual translation equivalent to the original version.
Conclusion
The FACE‐Q questionnaire is a reference in the field of cosmetic surgery outcome evaluation. The use of two validated translation recommendations, with a six‐step translation‐back translation process, leads to a French version corresponding to the original. This version is usable in a French‐speaking population.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
