Fabrication Of Implant Supported Hybrid Denture Using Multi-Unit Abutments In A Patient With Generalised Aggressive Periodontitis, Anupama Aradya, Raghavendra Swamy K N, Chandan S N, Prashanth M B

International Journal of Health and Allied Sciences

This case report describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of a geriatric patient with generalized aggressive periodontitis. The patient was advised to for full extraction. An implant supported hybrid prosthesis with multi-unit abutments was fabricated for the patient who chose a fixed kind of prosthesis. Implants were placed in the maxillary & mandibular arch. Frameworks were waxed, plastic castable abutments were used for casting, denture teeth were waxed to the hybrid framework and a final wax try-in to check and adjust the maxilla-mandibular relationships before processing, the prosthesis was placed. The clinical and radiologic results met expectations.

New Orleans Dental Association News

Dengue Fever, caused by the DENV virus, is a growing health concern, especially in arid regions. The disease presents oral symptoms that dentists must recognize for timely diagnosis. Dental professionals should exercise caution during surgical procedures due to potential hemorrhagic complications. Early identification and management of oral manifestations can prevent severe outcomes.

A Novel Model Of Autologous Tooth Transplantation For The Study Of Nerve Recruitment, Teresa E. Fowler, Doan T. Bloomquist, Caroline Glessner, Poonam Patel, Jeffrey N. James, Kathryn Bollinger, Lynnette P. Mccluskey, Ryan F. Bloomquist

School of Dentistry Faculty Publications

Background: Limited treatment options exist for damaged nerves and despite impressive advances in tissue engineering, scientists and clinicians have yet to fully replicate nerve development and recruitment. Innervation is a critical feature for normal organ function. While most organs are innervated prior to birth, a rare example of postnatal nerve recruitment occurs in the natural development of secondary teeth during adolescence. Many animals undergo postnatal shedding of deciduous teeth with development and eruption of secondary teeth, a process requiring recruitment of nerve and vasculature to each tooth pulp for viability. Here, the investigators created a novel model for the study …

Esthetic Management Of Maxillary Anteriors With Complicated And Uncomplicated Fractures Using Different Fragment Reattachment Approaches, Lavanya A, Rajendra Kumar Tewari, Sharique Alam

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

Appropriate management of anterior tooth fracture restores the function and aesthetics and provides a positive psychological impact for the patient. One of the most conservative approaches for such a restoration is reattachment; if a fracture fragment remains attached to the tooth and is available, as in young patients, immediate reporting helps preserve the vitality and long-term defense mechanism. Objective: This case report provides two cases with varied approaches for the management of complicated and uncomplicated crown fractures using reattachment procedures. Case report: During the clinical examination, the first case described the management of an uncomplicated fracture using the …

Peripheral Ameloblastoma Of Palatal Mucosa: A Rare Case Report And Literature Review, Filiz Namdar Pekiner, Suay Yağmur Ünal, Hakan Yülek, Gaye Keser

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

Peripheral ameloblastoma (PA), an uncommon and unique form of odontogenic tumor, accounts for around 2-10% of all ameloblastomas. The extraosseous position is the distinguishing aspect of this form of tumor, which is otherwise comparable to a typical ameloblastoma. As late recurrence is also recorded, continuous follow-up is required. A case of peripheral ameloblastoma in a 23-year-old male that affected the right posterior palatal mucosa was presented in this case study. A 23-year-old male patient had an exophytic mass located at the junction of the hard and soft palate, in the palatal neighborhood of the tooth number 18. An excisional biopsy …

Future Dental Journal

Abstract

Objective: To assess the accuracy of Dolphin Imaging software in predicting upper jaw profile changes in class II patients treated by extraction and non-extraction.

Methods: The records of 60 Class II div 1 patients were selected; 30 patients treated by extraction of upper first premolar and 30 patients treated by non-extraction. The Pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalometric x-rays of each patient were traced using Dolphin software. The actual hard tissue changes due to treatment were calculated and installed into the prediction module to generate the predicted profile. The soft tissue measurements of the actual post-treatment and predicted profiles were …

Identifying Temporomandibular Disorder Morphological Risk Factors Via Explainable Deep Learning And Multiscale Biomechanical Modeling, Shuchun Sun

All Dissertations

Clarifying multifactorial musculoskeletal disorder etiologies supports risk analysis and development of targeted prevention and treatment modalities. Deep learning enables comprehensive risk factor identification through systematic analysis of disease datasets but does not provide sufficient context for mechanistic understanding, limiting clinical applicability for etiological investigations. Conversely, multiscale biomechanical modeling can evaluate mechanistic etiology within the relevant biomechanical and physiological context. We propose a hybrid approach combining 3D explainable deep learning and multiscale biomechanical modeling; we applied this approach to investigate temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder etiology by systematically identifying risk factors and elucidating mechanistic relationships between risk factors and TMJ biomechanics and …

Effect Of Taper And Pitch On Nickle-Titanium File With Variable Cross Section To Its Cyclic Fatigue (In Silico Study), Yustika Chrysandra, Tunjung Nugraheni, Wignyo Hadriyanto

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

The geometric design of an endodontic file includes cross-sectional shape, taper, and pitch. NiTi endodontic files of OneCurve (MicroMega) are made of two variations of cross-sectional shape, that is, double-s shaped and triple helix. Various kinds of modifications were made to increase the resistance of the NiTi endodontic files from fracture. Cyclic fatigue is the most common factor that causes a fracture of the endodontic file. Objective: The purpose of this study was to obtain a NiTi endodontic file design that has the best cyclic resistance value based on its taper size and number of pitch. Methods: This …

Guiding Our Implants: Using Dynamic Surgical Guidance To Maximize Predictability, Shane Endres Dds, Ma, Ryan Schure Dds, Msc, Frcd

The New York State Dental Journal

Dynamic surgical guidance (DSG) is a recent advance in implant dentistry, used in an effort to maximize the efficiency and predictability of implant surgeries. A study, conducted by Navigate Surgical Technologies using the Inliant system, was undertaken in Toronto, Canada to analyze the success and accuracy of this technology. Twenty-three implants placed in twenty-two subjects were examined. The results showed that implant placement using Inliant was extremely accurate when compared to the pre-surgical plan. Additionally, there were no significant errors or deviations in implant placement. The study concluded with the Food and Drug Administration of the United States granting safety …
