ABSTRACT
@#The high incidence and untreated rate of root caries, a common and frequently occurring oral disease with challenging treatment in elderly individuals, is the main cause of tooth loss among elderly people, as rapid development results in pulpitis and periapical periodontitis or residual crown and root, which has been regarded as one of the common chronic oral diseases seriously affecting the quality of life of elderly people. Thus, early intervention and prevention are important. Traditional dental materials for preventing root caries have been widely used in clinical practice; however, they have the disadvantages of tooth coloring, remineralization and low sterilization efficiency. A series of new dental materials for preventing root caries have gradually become a research hotspot recently, which have the advantages of promoting the mineralization of deep dental tissue, prolonging the action time and enhancing adhesion. Future caries prevention materials should be designed according to the characteristics of root surface caries and the application population and should be developed toward simplicity, high efficiency and low toxicity. This review describes current research regarding anti-caries prevention material application, serving as a theoretical underpinning for the research of root caries prevention materials, which is important for both promotion in the effective prevention of root caries and improvement in the status of oral health and the quality of life among old people.
ABSTRACT
37 free second molar residual crowns were repaired by glass fiber post and resin core(GF group),and another 37 by cobalt chromium alloy casting post and core(CCA group).The success rate of 1 ~5 years of GF group was 1 00%,1 00%,91 .9%,86.5% and 81 .1 %;that of CCA group 97.3%,91 .9%,83.8%,81 .1 % and 73.0%,respectively(P >0.05).
ABSTRACT
Objective:To presents a new way of constructing post crowns for the anterior maxillary teeth which had the subginginval crown fracture more than 3 mm.To discusse the difficulties in the restoration of the subgingival residual roots and residual crowns of anterior maxillary teeth,and to explore the principles of the new restoration by the casting post-core and the porcelain fused mental crowns with wings. Methods: 23 patients(26 teeth) which had crown fracture more than 3 mm under the gingival were enrolled in this study.After those residual roots and crowns were endodontically treated following the conventional root canal therapy,the casting post-core and the porcelain fused mental crowns with wings were applied to reconstructing those missing crowns. Results: After 3 months to 5 years clinic observation,restored crowns were still stable with good retention and fracture resistance. Conclusion: Those residual roots and crowns can be preserved by this innovative way and can also acquire satisfactory effects in esthetics and functions.
ABSTRACT
Discussed how to use column split-core crown to repair the indications of the residual crown and root of posterior teeth,as well as its clinical results.Root canal treatment of the residual root,repaired the residual crown and root of posterior teeth with column split-core crown,and then used it as a fixed bridge abutment.No loose,no pain,no loss and jaw bite was in a good recovery compare to the standard after 1-2 years follow-up.It is a good method to use column split-core crown to repair the residual crown and root of posterior teeth under certain conditions.
ABSTRACT
Based on the properties of the zirconia all-ceramic material,this report presented a clinical application with the zirconia all-ceramic crown/bridge for restoration of multiple residual roots and crowns.
ABSTRACT
The residual crown and root has very important physiological significances,but there are many problems in the clinical treatment,such as overtreatment and defensive treatment,etc.This article analyze the background and causes of these problems,and provids some corresponding ways to solve them.
