Oral focal mucinosis is a rare lesion with less than 60 cases reported in English literature so far, to the best of our knowledge. It is considered to be the oral counterpart of cutaneous focal mucinosis and/or cutaneous myxoid cyst. Histopathologically, Oral focal mucinosis is demonsterates a well-circumscribed area of myxomatous connective tissue containing mucinous material, surrounded by denser collagenous connective tissue. We present a case of Oral focal mucinosis occurring on the buccal gingiva of the lower jaw.

Inflammatory Responses Of Peri-Implant Crevicular Fluid On Different Dental Implant Abutment Materials After 6-Months Functional Loading: A Randomized Clinical Controlled Trial, Penkamol Wongrattanapasson
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Different abutment materials induce different immune responses in peri-implant soft tissues. Previous study showed that Ti base abutments without loading demonstrated comparable soft tissue-reaction to titanium abutments (Sampatanukul et al., 2018). Inflammatory responses after functional loading had not been elucidated in the previous study. This study investigates the inflammatory responses of peri-implant crevicular fluid around two abutment materials; titanium and titanium base (Ti base) after 6-months functional loading and identifies suitable abutment material which can induce stable inflammatory response in the peri-implant soft tissue. Sixteen implants of either Neodent or Straumann single implants were placed in sixteen patients in anterior …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Objectives: To evaluate effects of surface treatments on the color stability (ΔE) and translucency parameter (TP) of Gradient Multilayered yttria-stabilized Zirconia (GMZ), Ultra-translucent multilayered Zirconia (UTML) and lithium disilicate glass ceramic (LD) under coffee thermocycling. Methods: 27 samples from each material were classified into 3 groups (polished, glazed, and glazed+pumice). A dental spectrophotometer was utilized to measure the color coordinates before and after thermocycling. The color and translucency differences (ΔE and ΔTP) measurements were determined using the CIELAB formula, and their corresponding 50%:50% perceptibility and acceptability thresholds (PT and AT) were used for analysis. One-way ANOVA and Two-way ANOVA was …

Testing The Strength Of Thin Feather-Edge Monolithic Multilayered Zirconia Crowns: A Pilot Study With A Novel Acoustic Test, Estelle Saab, Camille Haddad, Maher Abboud, Maha Daou, Amine Zoghbi
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Introduction: Limited research has explored the mechanical characteristics of recently introduced multilayered monolithic zirconia (MZC) crowns with feather-edge margins design. Moreover, most of the conventional techniques for evaluating the mechanical behavior of brittle dental ceramics rely on destructive tests, making it impossible to precisely evaluate real strength values due to premature crack initiation detection failure.
Objectives: The main objective of the study was to assess the load capacity of translucent multilayered monolithic zirconia crowns with feather-edge margin thicknesses of 0.4 mm and 0.5 mm. Additionally, the research introduced a novel non-destructive acoustic emission testing (AET) technique in the …

Aesthetic Rehabilitation Of A Complex Crown-Root Fracture By Fragment Reattachment With A Fiber-Reinforced Post: A Case Report, Sarra Saidi, Meriem Fejjeri, Mahdi Tlili, Sabra Jaafoura, Nadia Frih
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Complex crown-root fractures are characterized by the involvement of both crown and root with pulp exposure. They pose aesthetic, functional, and psychological problems for the patient. Furthermore, they can pose technical difficulties for the practitioner. The purpose of this case report is to describe the management of a complex crown-root fracture of the right upper central incisor with subgingival limit by reattaching the tooth fragment with fiber-reinforced post. We considered a coronal elongation (gingivectomy and osteoplasty) to recreate the biological space and to expose the limit of the fracture line to guarantee the quality of the bond.

Universal adhesives (UAs) often exhibit comparable or even superior bond strength to traditional adhesive systems, ensuring reliable and long-lasting adhesion between the resin composite and the tooth structure. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the clinical performance of UAs compared to other adhesive systems in direct resin composite restorations through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Two reviewers executed a literature search in five electronic databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, and Scielo. Clinical trials comparing the clinical evaluation of resin composite restorations in Class I, Class II, or Class V cavities placed with an universal adhesive (UA) system against …
