Oral and maxillofacial surgery is correlated with a high risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission. To assist our colleagues under physical and psychological burden by using the current literature data and considering the recommendations of the Ministry of Health Science board decisions, -The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, American Dental Association and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, this literature review has been prepared in order to organize elective surgeries. Interventions should be planned after evaluating both the logistic conditions of the institution and the situation during the pandemic before per forming elective surgery. In order to save resources and to avoid unnecessary exposure to infected patients, there is the need to schedule interventions depending on their priority, In general, Emergency procedures do not allow any delay. In elective surgeries, risk assessments of both the patient and the surgical procedure is left to the surgeon. Inpatient and outpatient units have to he organized in such a way that the risk of cross-infection among patients is reduced to a minimum. Active Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) patients should he treated in the operating room with negative pressure, and aerosol formation must be reduced to a minimum, During reopening period, treatments may he applied in cans whew appropriate conditions arc provided and recommendations for patient and physician safety are taken.

Oral papillary lesions include a variety of reactive, developmental, and neoplastic conditions. Inflammatory papillary lesions almost involve the hard palate and are usually associated with the use of ill-fitting dentures and poor oral hygiene. Contrarily, perioral involvement of papillomatosis can also be found in neoplastic or syndromic conditions. This case report aimed to present a 44-yearold male patient with rarely encountered multifocal non-human papillomavirus (HPV) inflammatory papillary hyperplasia and evaluate the differential diagnosis that represents similar clinical and histopathological conditions. Multifocal papillary lesions on the lips, tongue, alveolar crest, and oral mucosa were surgically removed via scalpel and laser application. The histopathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of non-HPV inflammatory papillary hyperplasia. Complete recovery was achieved and the patient was rehabilitated with a new removable prosthesis. Surgical removal of the papillary lesions seems to be a reliable treatment option. In addition to HPV-induced lesions and poor oral hygiene, other etiologic factors should be eliminated with clinicopathologic consultation and genetic investigations.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of conducting this study was to evaluate the effect of zoledronic acid (ZA) on the new bone formation (NBF) after the insertion of a titanium dental implant, which is very popular treatment in dentistry. STUDY DESIGN: Twelve New Zealand white rabbits were used in this study. The rabbits were divided in two groups. ZA was systemically administered to the study group. Titanium implants were placed to the left and right tibias of the rabbits. RESULTS: The data from the ZA group revealed a statistically significant increase in the bone mineral content and the bone mineral density. A non-decalcified histomorphometric examination conducted on the study group revealed a significant increase of NBF and boneimplant contact (BIC) at 2 and 4 weeks. CONCLUSION: A single dose of systemic ZA administration increases the rate of NBF and augments the quality of the bone.
