Clinical Outcomes Of Implantoplasty In The Treatment Of Peri-Implantitis: A Systematic Review, Jonghann Chai

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Peri-implantitis is a biological complication that possibly occur following the placement of titanium dental implants. Treatments include both non-surgical and surgical modalities. During surgical procedure, several techniques have been introduced to decontaminate the infected implant surface. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of the implantoplasty technique in the treatment of peri-implantitis, by investigating the changes in the clinical and radiographic parameters of peri-implant tissues after treatment and assessing both the short and long-term implant survival following the implantoplasty. A systematic review was conducted by searching electronic online (PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE) databases, published between January 2000 …

Influence Of Preparation Type And Tooth Geometry On The Accuracy Of Different Intraoral Scanners, Ahmed Sabet

Dentistry

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of preparation design and tooth geometry on the accuracy of scans obtained from three different intraoral scanners (IOS). Materials and Methods: Full coverage crown and inlay preparations with known axial wall tapers (6ᵒ and 12ᵒ) were performed on typodont teeth using a computer numerical control machine. Reference models were scanned with a highly accurate reference scanner (Ineos X5) and saved in standard tessellation language (STL) format then each IOS (Omnicam, Trios, and i500) scanned each model 10 times. The STL files obtained from the intraoral scanners were compared to the reference models (trueness) and within …

The Effect Of Smoking On Clinical Presentation And Expression Of Tlr-2 And Cd34 In Oral Lichen Planus Patients: Clinical And Immunohistochemical Study, Enji Ahmed Mahmoud, Nermin Yousif, Nermin Raouf

Dentistry

Background: Oral lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory disease which is considered as a potential precancerous condition. Numerous studies have confirmed that inflammation is a strong risk factor for cancer development. Smoking is associated with potentially malignant disorders of the oral and oropharyngeal mucosa. The adverse consequences of smoking in various pathologies are mediated by its effects on the immune-inflammatory system. Little is known about the influence of cigarette smoke content on the course of OLP and inflammatory response. Methods: Twenty oral lichen planus smoker patients, 20 oral lichen planus non-smoker patients and 20 control patients were included in this …
