Editorial: Solidarity
Anita Wuttke, Editor-in-chief
We are living in precarious times. COVID-19, which has held the world in thrall since February 2020, is caused by a non-sentient virus. But the current war in Ukraine is human-induced, and it is close to laying waste to an entire country, just a few hours away from us by air. Unabated and undeterred, Vladimir Putin and his war machine are pressing ahead to subjugate Ukraine—mercilessly and seemingly unimpressed by the horror with which he is perceived outside Russia. “Day after day, the suffering inflicted by the invading Russian army on its cousins in Ukraine is growing”, as the German broadsheet Frankfurter Allgemeine put it. The more people are killed, lose their beloved ones, lose their homes, lose their livelihoods, have to flee, the further Russia is departing from this historically and ethnically close relationship, from the perceived commonality of the Soviet era. And Russia is increasingly isolating itself from the rest of the world...

Dentistry, oral implantology and Europe—Where we stand now
Christian Berger, Prof Roland Frankenberger, Prof Joachim E. Zöller, Prof Jörg Neugebauer, Dr Markus Tröltzsch, Dr Alfred Büttner, Peter Knüpper
On the occasion of the first 2022 issue, the editorial team of EDI Journal takes a closer look at our current situation. What is the status quo in oral implantology? And the status quo in dentistry as a whole? What keeps us preoccupied in terms of legal and accounting issues? But we will also be looking beyond the oral cavity. Where does dentistry stand in terms of sustainability? Let our experts explain.

A must—not only for beginners
Author
The BDIZ EDI Curriculum Implantology is a must for beginners—but not only. BDIZ EDI regularly offers profound basic training in oral implantology in cooperation with the University of Cologne, which stands out for the great emphasis it places on hands-on exercises. A special feature is that training modules that were not acquired at BDIZ EDI can be integrated into the BDIZ EDI Curriculum Implantology if their scientific character is recognized.

Tie-in transactions with prescriptions? Medicinal product advertising law and sweepstakes campaigns by mail-order pharmacies
Inken Huschke
The pharmaceutical market is booming. For quite some time now, this market has no longer been strictly controlled and devoid of competition. At the same time, the national legislator is—understandably enough—interested in preventing any kind of improper influence on consumers when it comes to their individual health. German ideas of what the concept of controlled trade in pharmaceuticals should entail are far less liberal than those of some of its European neighbours. It is therefore not surprising that cross-border trade in medicines is a particularly sensitive area of competition law. The European Court of Justice (ECJ), in its judgment dated 24 July 2021 (C-190/20) had to decide whether a mail-order pharmacy can be legally prohibited from offering a sweepstakes to recruit customers where entering the sweepstakes is contingent on filling a prescription for a prescription-only medicine.

Solidarity with dental colleagues and all people in Ukraine
Dr Freddie Sloth-Lisbjerg President CED, Dr. Michael Frank President ERO
It is with great dismay and concern that dentists in Europe, represented by the Council of European Dentists (CED) and the European Regional Organization of the World Dental Federation (ERO), look at the events in Ukraine. After more than seven decades of peace and security, no one would have believed just a few days ago that they would have to witness a war of aggression in Europe. The images of the people tightly packed in the metro stations of the capital Kiev, seeking shelter from the bombings, painfully remind us all of how fragile and in need of protection even our long taken-for-granted state of peace really is. Russia's attack has turned the wheel of history far back. The fear of a third world war, perhaps even waged with nuclear weapons, has returned...

Minimally invasive implant placement with internal sinus floor elevationMahssa Arjmandi, Dr med dent, Mannheim, Germany
Mahssa Arjmandi, Dr med dent, Mannheim, Germany
The surgical oral rehabilitation of elderly patients with pre-existing conditions, sometimes exacerbated by an insufficient bone supply, requires a minimally invasive procedure that avoids inflicting strain on the patients. Even if the amount of available bone in the maxillary sinus region is limited, denture retention in senior patients can be significantly improved by a simple and uncomplicated procedure. MIMI—which stands for “minimally invasive method of implantation”—in combination with an internal direct maxillary sinus lift, shortens treatment times and causes virtually no postoperative discomfort. This article presents the MIMI procedure as exemplified by a case report.

Graft volumetric changes of collagenated xenograft
Dr Livio Lo Faro, Dr Francesco Giachi Carù & Prof Tiziano Testori, Italy
Placement of dental implants is an increasingly common approach to the replacement of missing teeth.1 Implant-supported prostheses can be used as an alternative to traditional bridgework or removable dentures in case of partially and completely edentulous patients. However, the posterior region of the maxilla is usually a challenge for surgeons owing to the bone resorption that occurs after tooth extraction.2–3 Moreover, the maxilla mainly consists of spongy bone, which is one of the least dense in the oral cavity.4 To compensate for atrophy and increase the bone volume available for the insertion of implants, various techniques have been developed.5 Maxillary sinus elevation is a predictable and well-documented method to increase bone volume for maxillary implant placement.6, 7 ...

Partial extraction therapy andimplant treatment in the maxilla
Dr Snježana Pohl, Dr Mijo Golemac, Dr Daniela Grgic Miljanic , Dr Pantelis Petrakakis & Prof Jelena Tomac, Croatia & Germany
Various techniques and methods based either on grafting of the fresh extraction socket (ridge preservation) with different materials and delayed implant placement or on immediate implantation with grafting of the gap between implant and socket wall have been applied in order to prevent ridge alterations after tooth extraction. However, insights concerning superiority of the type of grafting technique or material are scarce.1, 2 Partial extraction therapy, leaving either the whole root (root submergence therapy) or the buccal part of the root (socket shield technique) of hopeless teeth inside the extraction socket, may have clinical significance as an alternative to conventional preservation procedures. These techniques are based on the observation, made already 80 years ago, that resorption of the bundle bone within the extraction socket may be reduced by leaving the root or a root fragment inside the socket, attached by a healthy periodontal ligament to the buccal socket wall, providing good blood supply to the hard and soft tissue.3–5
