Zygomatic implants in intra-sinus versus extra-maxillary approaches for prosthetic rehabilitation in severely atrophic maxillae: finite element analysis / Implantes cigomáticos en abordajes intra sinusal versus extra maxilar para rehabilitación protésica en maxilares severamente atróficos: análisis de elementos finitos

Objetive: To compare the stresses and deformations generated on the surrounding bone of the zygomatic implants when using an intra sinusal and extra-maxillary approach, through the finite element method. Material and Methods: Computer aided designs (CADs) were constructed using SolidWorks Software of a skull with bone resorption to be rehabilitated through a fixed hybrid prosthesis using two zygomatic and two conventional straight implants. For the boundary conditions (load conditions), symmetry in the sagittal plane was assumed and that all the materials were isotropic, homogeneous and linearly elastic. Two zygomatic implantation techniques were simulated: intra sinusal (Is) and extra maxillary (Em). Vertical and lateral loads of 150 N and 50 N were applied to the finite element models to obtain Von Mises equivalent stress and strain (displacement). Results: The average measurement of the Von Mises stress (MPa) recorded were as follows: Approach of the implant body (Is: 0.24- Em: 0.28,) effort of implant body with vertical load: Is: 0.69 - Em: 0.96; effort of peri-implant surface under horizontal load: Is: 2.11 - Em: 0.94. Average displacement under vertical load of peri-implant surface Is: 0.35 - Em: 0.40, and of implant body Is: 1.34 - Em: 2.04. Average total deformation in approach Is: 2.23 mm - Em: 0.80mm, and average total deformation in the implant body under horizontal load was Is: 0.14 - Em: 0.21. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that despite the differences that occurred in both stress and strain (displacement) between the intra-sinus and extra-maxillary approaches, the static strength of the bone, which is approximately 150 MPa in tension and 250 MPa in compression was not exceeded. Considering the limitations of finite element analysis, there seems to be no biomechanical reason to choose one approach over the other.

Objetivo: Comparar por el método de elementos finitos los esfuerzos y deformaciones generados sobre el hueso circundante de implantes cigomáticos tratados con un abordaje intra sinusal y extra maxilar. Material y Métodos: Se construyeron los diseños asistidos por computadora (CAD) utilizando el Software SolidWorks de un cráneo con una reabsorción ósea para ser rehabilitado, a través de una prótesis híbrida fija, mediante dos implantes cigomáticos y dos rectos convencionales. Para las condiciones de frontera (condiciones de carga) se asumió simetría en el plano sagital y que todos los materiales eran isotrópicos, homogéneos y linealmente elásticos. Se simularon dos técnicas de implantación cigomática: una intra sinusal (Is) y otra extra maxilar (Em). Se aplicaron cargas verticales y laterales de 150 N y 50 N a los modelos de elementos finitos para obtener el esfuerzo equivalente de Von mises y la deformación (desplazamiento). Resultados: La medición promedio del esfuerzo de Von Mises (MPa) registró: abordaje del cuerpo de implante (Is: 0.24-Em: 0.28) esfuerzo del cuerpo de implante con carga vertical: (Is:0.69 ­ Em: 0.96); esfuerzo de la superficie peri implantar ante carga horizontal (lateral):( Is:2.11 ­ Em:0.94). Desplazamiento promedio ante carga vertical de la superficie peri implantar (Is:0.35 ­ Em:0.40) y del cuerpo del implante (Is:1.34 ­ Em:2.04). Deformación total promedio en mm en abordaje (Is: 2.23 ­ Em:0.80) y deformación total promedio en el cuerpo del implante ante carga horizontal (Is:0.14 ­ Em:0.21). Conclusión: Los resultados de este estudio indican que a pesar de las diferencias que se presentaron tanto en el esfuerzo como en la deformación (desplazamiento) entre los abordajes intra sinusal y extra maxilar, la resistencia estática del hueso, que es de aproximadamente 150 MPa en tensión y 250 MPa en compresión no se superó. Considerando las limitaciones de los AEF, parece no haber razones biomecánicas para elegir uno u otro enfoque.

Rehabilitation of atrophic posterior partial edentulous maxilla with TTPHIL ALL TILT® technique: 3 year follow-up case report / Reabilitação de maxila atrófica posterior parcialmente desdentada com técnica TTPHIL ALL TILT®: relato de caso de acompanhamento de 3 anos

Maxillary sinus pneumatisation pose a grave clinical challenge for implant fixed rehabilitation in posterior maxilla owing to diminished bone volume. This necessitates sinus lift and grafting which increase the duration and cost and possible surgical complications. Pterygoid implant has a greater short term osseointegration and is a proven treatment method for rehabilitation of highly resorbed posterior maxilla. To overcome the limitations of sinus grafting techniques, the current case report describes the use of flapless, tilted and pterygoid implant for restoration of partially edentulous atrophic maxilla eliminating grafting (AU).

A pneumatização do seio maxilar representa um grande desafio clínico para a reabilitação fixa por implante na região posterior da maxila devido ao volume ósseo diminuído. Isso requer elevação do seio e enxerto, fatores que aumentam a duração, o custo e as possíveis complicações cirúrgicas. O implante pterigóide tem uma osseointegração maior em curto prazo e é um método de tratamento comprovado para reabilitação de maxila posterior altamente reabsorvida. Para superar as limitações das técnicas de enxerto de seio, o relato de caso atual descreve o uso de implante sem retalho, inclinado e pterigóide para restauração de maxila atrófica parcialmente edêntula eliminando o enxerto.(AU)

Tipo de edentulismo parcial bimaxilar y su asociación con el nivel socioeconómico-cultural / Type of bimaxillary partial edentulism and its association with socioeconomic cultural level

Introducción: El edentulismo parcial es una condición final a la presencia de caries dental relacionado con diversos factores sociales, demográficos y culturales. Actualmente, existen escasos estudios que valoren el estado de edentulismo parcial y su asociación con el nivel socioeconómico-cultural. Objetivo: Determinar la frecuencia del tipo de edentulismo parcial bimaxilar según la Clase de Kennedy y su posible asociación con el nivel socioeconómico-cultural en los pacientes de la clínica de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos del año 2016. Material y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, observacional y transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 100 pacientes adultos edéntulos parciales seleccionados aleatoriamente que fueron evaluados mediante una encuesta y un examen clínico oral. La encuesta estuvo conformada por los datos sobre el nivel socioeconómico-cultural. El examen clínico se evaluó con un odontograma para determinar el tipo de edentulismo según la clasificación de Kennedy. Resultados: El tipo de edentulismo parcial más frecuente fue la Clase III de Kennedy en la arcada maxilar (50 por ciento) y en la mandibular (49 por ciento), los portadores pertenecían en gran medida al nivel socioeconómico-cultural medio (83 por ciento). No se evidenció una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre el nivel socioeconómico-cultural y el tipo de edentulismo parcial según la Clase de Kennedy en ambas arcadas dentarias. Conclusiones: En la población estudiada existe una mayor frecuencia de edentulismo parcial bimaxilar Clase III de Kennedy y una preponderancia del nivel socioeconómico-cultural medio. Sin embargo, no existe asociación entre el tipo de edentulismo parcial según la Clase de Kennedy y el nivel socioeconómico-cultural(AU)

Introduction: Partial edentulism is a final condition to the presence of dental caries related to various social, demographic and cultural factors. Currently, there are few studies that assess the state of partial edentulism and its association with the socioeconomic cultural level. Objective: To determine the frequency of the type of bimaxillary partial edentulism according to Kennedy´s Class and its possible association with the socioeconomic cultural level in patients treated in the clinic of the Faculty of Dentistry of the National University of San Marcos in 2016. Material and methods: A descriptive, observational and cross-sectional study was conducted. The sample consisted of 100 randomly selected partial edentulous adult patients who were evaluated by means of a survey and an oral clinical examination. The survey was made up of the data that relate socioeconomic cultural level. The clinical examination was evaluated with an odontogram to determine the type of edentulism according to Kennedy´s classification. Results: The most frequent type of partial edentulism was Kennedy's Class III in the maxillary arch (50 percent) and in the mandible (49 percent), which was mainly present in patients that belonged to the average socioeconomic cultural level (83 percent). There was no statistically significant association between the socioeconomic cultural level and the type of partial edentulism according to Kennedy´s Class in both dental arches. Conclusions: In the studied population, there is a greater frequency of partial bimaxilar edentulism according to Kennedy's Class III and a preponderance of the socioeconomic cultural level. However, there is no association between the type of partial edentulism according to Kennedy´s Class and the socioeconomic cultural level(AU)

Dimensional accuracy of different impression techniques of partially edentulous mandibular arch / Precisão dimensional de diferentes técnicas de moldagem de uma mandíbula parcialmente edêntulo

ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess and compare the dimensional accuracy of three impression techniques: 1-step putty/light-body, 2-step putty/light-body, and the monophase technique. Methods: A partially edentulous standard stainless steel mandibular arch cast with reference points on the teeth was used to make the impressions. The anteroposterior and transverse distances were measured. All impressions were made with a polyvinyl siloxane using stock metallic (1- and 2-step putty/light-body techniques) or acrylic resin (monophase technique) trays. The monophase impressions were made using a light-body material and the 1- and 2-step putty/light-body impressions with putty and light-body materials. After impression procedures, the accuracy of each technique was assessed measuring the stone casts (n = 5) poured from the impressions using a microscope at 30x magnification and at 0.5 µm accuracy. The data were analyzed statistically using 2-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p<0.05). Results: Stone casts made by all techniques had significantly negative linear changes (shrinkage). The anteroposterior distances showed more dimensional changes than the transverse distances. The edentulous side showed more shrinkage than the anteroposterior side. Conclusion: No differences between the impression techniques were found, but significant dimensional changes were observed.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar e comparar a precisão dimensional de três técnicas de moldagem: dupla mistura, reembasamento e moldeira individual. Métodos: Um modelo metálico inferior parcialmente edêntulo foi fabricado com pontos de referência nos dentes e usado para fazer as moldagens. As distâncias ântero-posteriores e transversais foram medidas. Todas as moldagens foram feitas com um silicone por adição utilizando moldeiras metálicas (técnicas da dupla mistura e reembasamento) ou de resina acrílica (técnica da moldeira individual). Na técnica da moldeira individual foi utilizado apenas o elastômero de viscosidade leve e nas técnicas da dupla mistura e reembasamento foram usados os elastômeros nas viscosidades denso e leve. Após os procedimentos de moldagem, a precisão dimensional de cada técnica de moldagem foi avaliada aferindo os modelos de gesso (n = 5) em um microscópio comparador com 30x de aumento e 0,5 µm de precisão. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente por ANOVA dois fatores e teste de Tukey (p<0,05). Resultados: Os modelos de gesso feitos com todas as técnicas de moldagem apresentaram alterações lineares negativas (contração). As distâncias ântero-posteriores apresentaram maiores alterações dimensionais que as distâncias transversais. O lado parcialmente edêntulo teve maior contração que o lado ântero-posterior oposto. Conclusão: Não foram encontradas diferenças entre as técnicas de moldagem, mas foram observadas significantes alterações dimensionais.
