Résumé
Forensic dentistry is finding increased application in identifying deceased individuals. Incorporating patient identification system in dentures is one of the measures taken in this regard. There are several denture identification measures, each having their own merits and demerits. This article describes a new denture identification system using Quick Response Code incorporated in dentures. This identification system can be very cost-effective, store lot of patient-related information and be easily accessible to the dentist...
A identificação de indivíduos falecidos é uma demanda crescente em Odontologia. A incorporação de sistemas de identificação na prótese total de pacientes é um procedimento de possível. Existem vários sistemas de identificação em próteses totais, cada um com seus próprios méritos e deméritos. Este artigo descreve um novo sistema de identificação de dentadura utilizando o código QR incorporado em próteses totais. Este sistema de identificação é de baixo custo, armazena grande quantidade de informações relacionadas ao paciente e é de fácil acesso ao dentista...

The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the published data concerning zirconia dental implants from various aspects. To identify relevant literature an electronic search was performed of PubMed. Titles and abstracts were screened and articles that fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected for a full-text reading. Articles were divided into four groups: 1) studies evaluating the mechanical properties of zirconia implants, 2) studies on osseointegration of zirconia, 3) studies on peri-implant tissue response to zirconia implant, and 4) studies on plaque accumulation with zirconia. Review of the selected articles showed that zirconia implants are reliable for placement in the jaw bone. Furthermore, zirconia implants present a material surface that is compatible with the peri-implant tissue and relatively less attractive to plaque. Based on the reviewed literature, it appears that zirconia has the potential to become the dental implant material of choice, especially for aesthetic restorations; however, some issues need to be studied further.
