Effect of captopril pretreatment on the dentin bonding durability of self-etch adhesive / 浙江大学学报·医学版

To investigate the effect of captopril on the dentin bonding durability of self-etch adhesive. Different concentrations of captopril ethanol solutions or captopril ethanol/water solutions were prepared to pretreat dentin as primer for the self-etch adhesives. The surface morphology of the dentin was observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Based on the morphology analysis, the pretreatment condition was selected and two self-etch adhesives were employed to evaluate the improvement effect of the captopril pretreatment on the dentin bonding durability. : SEM showed that the pretreatment of captopril ethanol solutions and captopril ethanol/water solutions were able to remove the smear lay and partially expose collagen matrix. According to the SEM results, the pretreating condition of captopril ethanol/water solution with the pretreating time of was selected for further dentin bonding study. For Clearfil SEBOND system, the immediate bonding strength increased from to  (0.05]. For Clearfil S BOND system, there was no significant difference in the immediate bonding strength between the experimental group [(4.07) MPa] and the control group[(4.11) MPa]. But after one-year aging, the bonding strength of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group <0.05]. : The pretreatment with captopril ethanol/water solution increases the dentin bonding strength of the self-etch adhesive systems and also improves the bonding durability.

Cirugía guiada para la colocación de implantes de longitud estándar en maxilar inferior posterior atrófico, sin regeneración ósea: informe de caso / Use of guided surgery for standard length implant placement in atrophic posterior mandible, without bone regeneration: case report

Objetivo: Presentar el uso de la cirugía guiada para la resolución quirúrgico-protética de un caso clínico con colocación de implantes de longitud estándar (>7 mm) en un maxilar inferior atrófico, sin regeneración ósea guiada. Caso clínico: Una paciente que requería terapia con implantes en sectores posteroinferiores se presentó en la Cátedra de Odontología Integral Adultos de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad de Buenos Aires. Primero se realizó una tomografía computarizada de haz cónico del maxilar inferior para evaluar la disponibilidad ósea. La planificación se efectuó siguiendo un protocolo digital a fin de optimizar la selección de los implantes y su instalación en función de la futura rehabilitación protética y el tejido óseo disponible. Después se escanearon ambos maxilares y el registro intermaxilar; estas imágenes ­junto con las correspondientes a la tomografía (DICOM)­ fueron importadas como archivos (STL) a un software específico de diseño para determinar digitalmente la posición 3D ideal de los implantes y diseñar una guía quirúrgica de precisión. Luego se realizó la cirugía de instalación de los implantes con la guía quirúrgica, y finalmente los implantes fueron rehabilitados por medio de coronas cemento-atornilladas. Conclusión: El uso de la cirugía guiada permitió optimizar el tejido óseo disponible para la instalación de implantes en función de la futura rehabilitación protética (AU)

Aim: To present the use of guided surgery for the prosthetic resolution of a clinical case with placement of implants of standard length (>7 mm) in an atrophic posterior mandible, with no need of bone regeneration. Clinical case: A patient who required implants in the posterior sectors of the mandible attended to the department of Odontología Integral Adultos, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina. A dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT scan) of the lower jaw was done to assess bone availability and was decided to perform guided surgery for accurate implant placement. Both maxillaries and intermaxillary occlusal registration were scanned and imported into files (STL) together with those of the CBCT scan (DICOM) into specific design software. Following the digital protocol using a surgical guide the implants were placed and then restored with cemented-screwed crowns. Conclusion: Guided surgery allowed planning implant placement, guided by the final position of the prosthetic restoration, and optimizing the available bone (AU)

Gnathology in implant-supported fixed restoration in edentulous mandible / 华西口腔医学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#This study aims to investigate the occlusal and myoelectric characteristics of implant-supported fixed denture in the mandibular region and provide reference for the design of fixed restoration.@*METHODS@#Sixty edentulous patients with implant-supported fixed denture were selected and divided into three groups: group A, 20 cases with implant-supported fixed restoration in the maxillary region; group B, 20 cases with natural dentition, and group C, 20 cases with removable partial denture. The T-scan 8.0 digital occlusion analysis system was used to evaluate the occlusal characteristics of patients in the three groups at intercuspal, protrusion, and left and right lateral positions. Electromyography was used to analyze the myoelectric amplitude and bilateral asymmetry index of the anterior temporalis and masseter of the three groups in different states such as resting and clenching. The relationship between occlusion and myoelectricity was also investigated.@*RESULTS@#In the occlusion analysis by T-scan, the occlusion time, the balance of left and right bite force, the left and right asymmetry of the occlusion center, the trajectory of central occlusion force, and the disclusion time were higher in group C than in groups A and B (P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in the anterior and posterior asymmetry of the occlusion center and percentage of bite force at anterior region among the three groups. In the analysis of myoelectricity, the myoelectric amplitude at resting state and the asymmetry index of masticatory muscles in group C were higher than those in groups A and B (P<0.05). The myoelectric amplitude during clenching in groups A and B groups was higher than that in group C (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#In implant-supported fixed restoration at edentulous mandibular, when maxillary includes the removable partial denture, degree of occlusal instability and left and right asymmetry of occlusion center are greater than those with the natural dentition and implant-supported fixed denture at maxillary. The myoelectricity is closely related to occlusion. The removable partial denture can increase the myoelectric activity and reduce the potential of the masticatory muscle. The asymmetry of bilateral myoelectricity is related to the occlusion imbalance.

Clinical case: A 64 years old male patient with upper partial edentulism, Kennedy class II-1 and also lower partial edentulism but Kennedy class II. Patient's chief complaint was dental wearing and an evident oclusal vertical dimension loss. Endodontic treatment was done focusing it in dental prosthetic rehabilitation. Thus therapeutic vertical dimension was reestablished with fixed and removal dental prosthesis. Later, definitive dental therapeutic rehabilitation was attained with fixed and conventional removable dental prosthesis. That mixed dental rehabilitation is an alternative which recovers and maintains oclusal vertical dimension through the time.

Occlusal analysis of implant-supported fixed denture in edentulous patients / 华西口腔医学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#This study aims to evaluate the occlusal characteristics of full edentulous patients with implant-supported prostheses and to provide a reference with the occlusal situation for clinicians.@*METHODS@#A Teetester occlusal analysis system was used with 30 full edentulous patients of implant-supported fixed denture (test group) in comparison with 30 natural dentition (control group). The percentage of occlusal force distribution were measured, as well as the occlusal time at the intercuspal, protrusion, and left and right lateral positions.@*RESULTS@#Compared with control group, the occlusion time, maximum occlusal force in intercuspal of test group significantly reduced (P<0.05); while control group was obviously superior to test group in the left and right bit force degree. Disclusion time in protrusion, occlusion times in lateral positions of test group also significantly reduced (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in average occlusion force, percentage of total force in anterior teeth, and lateral occlusion between test group and control group.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The maximum occlusal force in intercuspal of full edentulous patients with implant-supported prostheses reduce. The occlusal force in protrusive occlusion is concentrated in the front teeth, and the group function occlusion is the main lateral occlusal pattern.

Full mouth rehabilitation with Implant-Guided Surgery and Fixed prosthesis / 대한치과보철학회지

The development of cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) allows three-dimensional analysis of the patient's anatomy. The surgical guide is a combination of CBCT, computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) and implant diagnostics software, which allows well planned prostheses design and ideal implant placement. Guided surgery minimizes possible anatomical damage and allows for more reproducible treatment planning. In this case, the operation time was shortened by using a surgical guide for multiple implants placement in a fully edentulous patient. Immediate loading were performed more easily using preliminary preparation of provisional prosthesis. The patient was satisfied with improved esthetics and chewing function.

Injerto de cresta iliaca con rehabilitación fija implantosoportada

Las condiciones locales anatómicas y los factores generales relacionados con el paciente determinan la elección de la prótesis. En general se requieren más implantes para soportar una prótesis total fija. Además, en muchos casos la indicación de una prótesis fija está limitada por la estructura inadecuada de hueso, a menos que se utilicen procedimientos quirúrgicos adicionales tales como los aumentos óseos con procedimiento de injerto. En este caso clínico que presenta una atrofia avanzada de la maxila, se realiza un injerto de cresta iliaca, con el que se obtiene un reborde adecuado para poder colocar implantes dentales y confeccionar una prótesis fija implanto-soportada. Se da un seguimiento con dos años de control postoperatorio

The selection of the denture for a patient are determined from the local conditions anatomical/morphological and general factors related to the patient. In general more implants are requiered for the support of a fixed complete denture. Besides in many cases this fixed denture is limited by an inadequate bone structure, unless aditional surgical procedures such as bone graft for bone augmentation are performed. In the present clinical case with a severe upper jaw atrophy, a bone graft from the hip was done in order to obtain an adequate bone to receive the dental implants and place a fixed implant supported bridge. A follow up of the patient is of two years now.

Conceito all-on-four em maxila atrófica ­ análise pelo método dos elementos finitos 3D (3D-MEF) / All-on-four concept for atrophic maxillae ­ 3D finite element analisys (3D-FEA)

Objetivo: avaliar o comportamento biomecânico de uma prótese fixa com quatro implantes unidos em uma maxila edêntula atrófica, pelo método dos elementos finitos (MEF). Material e métodos: em uma mandíbula totalmente desdentada, foram colocados dois implantes posteriores, inclinados, seguindo a parede anterior do seio maxilar, e dois implantes paralelos na região anterior. Estes quatro implantes foram ligados por uma barra rígida simulando uma prótese fixa, com ou sem extensão distal de 10 mm. As análises foram feitas variando a intensidade do carregamento (100 N, 50 N e 25 N), a direção de aplicação (axial e não axial), bem como a presença ou ausência de cortical em volta dos implantes, simulando carga tardia e carga imediata, respectivamente. Resultados: os resultados mostraram não haver diferenças em relação à presença ou ausência da lâmina dura. A presença da extensão distal na prótese fixa (cantiléver) aumentou significativamente a quantidade de tensão (156,6 MPa), comparado ao modelo sem a extensão distal (52 MPa). Conclusão: a presença do cantiléver em prótese na maxila pelo conceito all-on-four sofre uma deformação em toda a prótese três vezes maior do que na sua ausência. Próteses fixas implantossuportadas imediatas e/ou mediatas mostraram comportamentos semelhantes, quando unidas por uma estrutura rígida.

Objective: to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of a fixed prosthesis over 4 dental implants splinted in the edentulous maxilla using the finite element analysis (FEA). Material and Methods: using a completely edentulous maxillary model, two inclined posterior implants were placed following the maxillary sinus wall, whereas two anterior implants were parallel to each other. A rigid bar was designed to connect these four implants, simulating a fixed prosthesis with a 10 mm distal extension. The analyses were made varying the load intensities (100 N, 50 N, and 25 N), load direction (axial, non-axial), to simulate delayed and immediate loading protocols, respectively. Results: no differences were seen for the presence (delayed) or absence (immediate) of lamina dura. The presence of cantilever (distal extension) significantly increased the amount of maximum tension (156.6 MPa) when compared with models without cantilever (52 MPa). Conclusion: the cantilever extension in the all-on-four concept has a deformation three times higher than in the lack of it. Immediate/mediate implant-supported fixed prostheses demonstrated similar behavior when splinted by a rigid bar type.

Evaluation of the pattern dimensions of cast-metal posts in uniradicular teeth / Avaliação do padrão dimensional dos retentores intrarradiculares metálicos fundidos em dentes unirradiculares

Introduction: Accurate dimensions of cast-metal posts are relevant to the survival of dental prostheses. Objective: The aim of this study was to verify if the dimensions of cast-metal posts accord with ideal clinical criteria. Material and method: For the evaluation, 285 periapical radiographs, from a total of 80 teeth, were taken from the charts of patients that attended the clinics at the Dental School of the Federal University of Goiás, from March 2008 to October 2012. Only periapical radiographs of single-rooted teeth with post and core were included in the study. The radiographic evaluation was conducted with the assistance of a magnifying glass and a view box, in a room with low luminosity. The dimensions of the post and core were established with the help of a digital caliper, and the following measurements were considered: a) LR (Length Remnant); b) LP (Length Post); c) BS (Bone Support); d) DR (Diameter Root); e) DP (mesiodistal diameter post). The post and core were classified as acceptable or deficient by reference values with a margin of error of 0.2 mm. For descriptive analysis, the data were cataloged using SPSS software (version 17.0). Result: With regard to the length of the post and core, only 26.25% and 43.75% of the post and core were classified as acceptable according to the two-thirds rule and fulcrum dental rule, respectively. With regard to the mesiodistal diameter of the post and core, 55% were classified as acceptable. Conclusion: Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that the cast-metal posts evaluated do not accord with the ideal clinical criteria. .

Dealing with dental implant failures

An implant-supported restoration offers a predictable treatment for tooth replacement. Reported success rates for dental implants are high. Nevertheless, failures that mandate immediate implant removal do occur. The consequences of implant removal jeopardize the clinician’s efforts to accomplish satisfactory function and esthetics. For the patient, this usually involves further cost and additional procedures. The aim of this paper is to describe different methods and treatment modalities to deal with dental implant failure. The main topics for discussion include identifying the failing implant, implants replacing failed implants at the exact site, and the use of other restorative options. When an implant fails, a tailor made treatment plan should be provided to each patient according to all relevant variables. Patients should be informed regarding all possible treatment modalities following implant failure and give their consent to the most appropriate treatment option for them.

Avaliação do ângulo de convergência de preparos para coroas totais / Assessment of the convergence angle of full crown preparations

O grau de conicidade tido como ideal em preparos para coroas totais fixas é aquele que proporciona maior retenção da restauração. A literatura recomenda uma variação em torno de 2° a 6°, porém estes valores são dificilmente obtidos na prática clínica, mostrando-se freqüentemente superiores à angulação recomendada. Entretanto, conicidades maiores podem ser aceitáveis, visto que cada dente suporte tem características e necessidades próprias de retenção. O objetivo deste estudo foi mensurar a conicidade dos preparos para coroas totais realizados pelos alunos da disciplina de Prótese Fixa I do curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal do Maranhão, a partir de seu ângulo de convergência. Para tanto, selecionou-se um total de 64 dentes de resina para manequim, preparados no período de 2005 a 2006. Esses corpos-de-prova foram agrupados de acordo com o arco e o grupo dental: G1 - dentes ântero-superiores (n = 36); G2 - dentes ântero-inferiores (n = 2); G3 - pré-molares superiores (n = 7); G4 - pré-molares inferiores (n = 4); G5 - molares superiores (n = 2); G6 - molares inferiores (n = 13). Por meio do programa AutoCAD 2006, as imagens foram capturadas com uma câmera de vídeo CCD acoplada a um estereoscóspio, mostrando-se o ângulo de convergência tanto no sentido vestibulolingual/palatino (VL/P) quanto mesiodistal (MD). Os dados foram submetidos a uma análise de variância (p = 0,05). O G2 foi o grupo que apresentou a menor média de conicidade no sentido VL/P (6,50°, p < 0.05), e o G1, as maiores médias no sentido MD (44,18°, p < 0,05). Assim, conclui-se que as média dos ângulos de convergência obtidas no presente estudo foram maiores que as preconizadas na literatura.
