ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Currently, the aesthetic requirements of patients are increasing and they have begun to request more conservative treatments. One alternative to achieve harmonious results is through the indication of ultra-thin veneers. This is considered a conservative technique but the evidence basis for it seems to be limited. The following review attempts to summarize the relevant literature to establish guidelines for clinicians based on scientific evidence regarding the use of ultra-thin veneers. Ultra-thin veneers seem to be a reliable alternative to achieve aesthetic and harmonious results; however, many factors must be considered to ensure correct diagnosis and treatment plan. In addition, the literature is scarce in relation to a consensus on tooth preparation and long-term studies evaluating the success of this type of treatment over time do not exist.


RESUMEN: Actualmente, los requisitos estéticos de los pacientes han aumentando y solicitan tratamientos más conservadores. Una alternativa para lograr resultados armónicos es mediante la indicación de carillas o laminados ultrafinos. Esta se considera una técnica conservadora, pero la base teórica parece ser limitada. La siguiente revisión intenta resumir la literatura relevante para establecer pautas para clínicas basadas en evidencia científica sobre el uso de carillas ultrafinas. Las carillas ultrafinas parecen ser una alternativa confiable para lograr resultados estéticos y armónicos; sin embargo, se deben considerar muchos factores para asegurar un diagnóstico y plan de tratamiento correcto. Además, la literatura es escasa en relación a un consenso sobre la preparación dental y no existen estudios a largo plazo que evalúen el éxito de este tipo de tratamiento a lo largo del tiempo.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this report was to endoscopically evaluate bone quality in vivo in the immediate installation of temporary small-diameter implants, and again after 6 months of function, through an attachments system for overdenture, in the atrophic mandible of a patient. We also histologically evaluated bone-implant interaction in these temporary small-diameter implants, once the success of the osseointegration of the submerged implants was guaranteed. A patient received a total of 6 implants in the atrophic mandible, two of which were immediately loaded with a provisional prosthesis, and four were left to heal in a submerged way. Further, an immersion endoscopic evaluation was performed during bone drilling, and this showed a compact bone structure with limited vascularization and predominantly cortical structure.This immediate loading protocol involving an overdenture retained by two small-diameter implants of 2.9 mm in the atrophic mandible proved to be successful after 6 months of loading. Clinical and histologic osseointegration was consistently achieved for both of the retrieved immediately loaded implants. This modality allows the patient to be restored with a stable, functional, and aesthetic prosthesis during the osseointegration period of submerged implants and soft-tissue healing, before the removal of the provisional implants. The histological evaluation of bone-implant contact found that the space between the implant threads closer to the surface was filled with woven bone and lamellar bone, but the tissue in contact with the cervical portion of the implants was compatible with cortical bone organization. Also, the newly formed bone has a regular cell distribution and characteristics of advanced maturation after 6 months of function in the atrophic mandible. Anchored overdentures in 2 to 4 small-diameter implants (2.9 mm) for edentulous patients with severe atrophy of the mandible with cortical bone would be a minimally invasive alternative.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: It is critical to know the precise location and configuration of the mandibular canal (MC) to avoid damages in the alveolar inferior nerve during an invasive dental treatment. The aim of this study was to provide anatomic relationships of the mandibular canal in its entire pathway related to cortical walls and dental roots to serve as basic knowledge for dental clinical procedures performed in this area. We analyzed 50 CBCT images assessing the specific location of MC at the retromolar space as related to inferior teeth roots. Data were analyzed by side using descriptive statistics (median: mean [M], standard deviation [SD], 95 % confidence interval: lower endpoint [IC] and upper endpoint [IC']). The MC length and pathway were measured from the mandibular foramen up to the mental foramen. MC was closer from lingual cortical than buccal at the retromolar space as well the distal root of the second molar and the root of the second premolar are closest to MC. A mean length for the MC of 70.8 (±5.3 mm) for the right side and 71 (±5.8 mm) for the left side were observed. In conclusion, it is critical for clinicians to know three-dimensionally the topographic relationships between the inferior teeth roots and the mandibular canal before proceeding to any invasive dental or surgical procedure at this region.


RESUMEN: Es crítico conocer la ubicación exacta y la configuración del canal mandibular (MC) para evitar daños en el nervio inferior alveolar durante un tratamiento dental invasivo. El objetivo de este estudio fue proporcionar relaciones anatómicas del MC en toda su trayectoria relacionada con paredes corticales y raíces dentales para servir como un conocimiento básico para los procedimientos clínicos dentales realizados en esta región. Se analizaron 50 imágenes CBCT evaluando la localización específica del MC en el espacio retromolar, así como las raíces de los dientes inferiores. Los datos se analizaron por lado, utilizando estadística descriptiva (mediana: media [M], desviación estándar [SD], 95 % intervalo de confianza: punto final inferior [IC] y extremo superior [IC]). La longitud y vía del conducto mandibular se midieron desde el foramen mandibular hasta el foramen mentoniano. El MC estaba más cerca de la cortical lingual que bucal en el espacio retromolar, así como la raíz distal del segundo molar y la raíz del segundo premolar están más cerca del MC. Se observó una longitud media para el MC de 70,8 (± 5,3 mm) para el lado derecho y de 71 (± 5,8 mm) para el lado izquierdo. En conclusión, es fundamental que el clínico conozca tridimensionalmente las relaciones topográficas entre las raíces de los dientes inferiores y el conducto mandibular antes de proceder a cualquier procedimiento invasivo dental o quirúrgico en esta región.

ABSTRACT

El propósito de este estudio fue relacionar la forma y proporción del incisivo central maxilar (ICM) derecho con la forma facial y ubicación de las líneas medianas dentarias y facial. Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal sobre una muestra por conveniencia constituida por 118 pacientes de ambos sexos, con una edad promedio de 25,09±7,71 años, escogidos según criterios de inclusión. En cada caso, fueron medidos el largo y ancho del ICM derecho, proporción dentaria resultante entre estas medidas, líneas medianas dentarias en relación a la línea mediana facial. Estas medidas se correlacionaron con las medidas faciales para forma y clase facial. Los resultados revelaron que la forma dentaria más frecuente encontrada fue la ovoide; las medidas promedio de largo y ancho para el ICM fueron de 10,28±0,91 mm y 8,69±0,57 mm, respectivamente. En mujeres fue 9,98 mm y 8,55 mm, y en hombres de 10,62 mm y 8,86 mm. La proporción dentaria fue de un 85%. Se encontraron coincidencias de las líneas medianas dentarias maxilar, mandibular y facial sólo en un 18% de los casos, y los tipos de contornos gingivales más frecuentes fueron de tipo estético (97%). No hubo relación entre medidas dentarias y faciales para las distintas clases faciales (análisis de varianza, y pruebas de comparaciones múltiples de Scheffe), sin embargo, encontramos que en todas las clases faciales de ambos sexos, predominó el tipo mesofacial y la clase I facial (57%). No se puede establecer una correlación entre forma dentaria y forma facial de manera significativa, por lo que otros parámetros también deben ser tomados en cuenta.


The purpose of this study was to relate the shape and proportion of the right maxillary central incisor with facial shape and location of dental and facial median lines. Cross-sectional study on a convenience sample consisting of 118 patients of both sexes was performed, with an average age of 25.09±7.71 years, selected according to inclusion criteria. In each case, were measured the length and width of right maxillary central incisor, tooth ratio resulting of these measures and medium tooth lines in relation to the midline. These measures were correlated with measures of facial shape and facial class. The results revealed that the most common tooth shape found was ovoid; average length and width for the maxillary central incisor were 10.28±0.91 mm and 8.69±0.57 mm, respectively; of 9.98 mm and 8.55 mm in women, and 10.62 mm and 8.86 mm in men. The dental proportion was 85%. Matches between the median lines of maxillary teeth, jaw and face were only found in 18% of cases, and the most common types of gingival contours were aesthetic (97%). There was no relationship between dental and facial for different facial types (analysis of variance and multiple comparison tests of Scheffe) measures, however, we found that all facial classes in both sexes, prevailed mesofacial and class I facial types (57%). Unable to establish a correlation between tooth shape and facial shape significantly, so other parameters should also be taken into account.

ABSTRACT

Hoy en día la implantología se ha convertido en una excelente alternativa frente a la pérdida o ausencia de piezas dentarias. Todo procedimiento quirúrgico invasivo prevé una bacteremia en la cual un número limitado de especies bacterianas resultan comúnmente implicadas en infecciones post operatorias. Por esta razón, parece imperante definir protocolos a seguir en cuanto al uso correcto de profilaxis antibiótica, ya que, actualmente, mucho de lo que se decide realizar, no se basa en la evidencia científica, sino en las declaraciones anecdóticas de cada uno de los profesionales que las realizan.


Today implantology has become an excellent alternative to the loss or absence of teeth. Any invasive surgical procedure provides a bacteremia in a limited number of bacterial species are commonly involved in post-operative infections. For this reason, it seems to follow prevailing define protocols regarding the proper use of prophylactic antibiotics, currently, much of what is decided, not based on scientific evidence, but anecdotal statements from each of the professionals who perform them.
