RESUMO
Objective:To compare the trueness of incisal guidance of implant-supported single crowns designed by patient-specific motion(PSM)with that designed by average-value virtual articulator(AVA).Methods:The study had recruited 12 participants with complete dentition and stable incisal guidance.An intraoral scanner was used to scan digital casts and record two types of patient-specific mo-tion(data only including protrusive movement,and data including protrusive movement and lateral pro-trusive movement).The lingual surfaces of the maxillary incisors which guided the protrusive movement was selected and elevated to create a reference cast.A maxillary central incisor of original casts was vir-tually extracted and implanted to generate a working cast.The Dental system software program was used to design implant-supported single crowns with the anatomical coping design method.The incisal guidance was designed by different methods.The incisal guidance in control group was designed by the average-value virtual articulator.The incisal guidance in experiment groups was designed by the patient-specific motion only including protrusive movement(PSM1)and with the patient-specific motion including protru-sive movement and lateral protrusive movement(PSM2).The incisal guidance of prosthesis designed by these 3 methods were compared with the original incisal guidance in Geomagic Control 2015(3DSystem,America).The measurements included:Average of positive values,ratio of positive area and maximum value reflecting supra-occlusion;average of negative values,ratio of negative area and minimum value re-flecting over-correction;and root mean square reflecting overall deviation.Results:Statistical data were collected using the median(interquartile range)method.The average of positive values,ratio of positive area and average of negative values of the PSM2 group were smaller than those of the control group[8.0(18.8)μm vs.37.5(47.5)μm;0vs.7.2％(38.1％);-109.0(63.8)μm vs.-66.5(64.5)μm],and the ratio of negative area of PSM2 group was larger than those of the control group[52.9％(47.8％)vs.17.3％(45.3％)],with significant differences(P all＜0.05).The ratio of positive area[0.1％(7.0％)]and average of negative values[-97.0(61.5)μm]of PSM1 group,were smaller than those of the control group,and the ratio of negative area[40.7％(39.2％)]of the PSM1 group was larger than that of the control group,with significant differences(P＜0.05).The average of positive values[20.0(42.0)μm]and ratio of positive area of PSM1 group was larger than that of the PSM2 group with significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion:To establish the incisor guidance of implant-supported single crowns,compared with the average-value virtual articulator and the patient-specific motion only including protrusive movement,the patient-specific motion including protrusive movement and lateral protrusive movement is more conducive to reducing the protrusive interference of prosthesis and improving the occlusal fit.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Most of the studies on combined orthodontic-orthognathic treatment of skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusions have focused on the improvement of the patient's lateral appearance and recovery in the later stages of the treatment,while there are fewer studies observing the microcosmic nature of the alveolar bone remodeling of the lower anterior teeth. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of lower anterior tooth decompensation and alveolar bone remodeling in patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion before and after orthodontic-orthognathic treatment based on oral X-ray lateral films and oral cone-beam CT. METHODS:From January 2015 to May 2023,15 patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion who underwent orthodontic-orthognathic surgery at Qingdao Hospital of Rehabilitation University were enrolled.All patients underwent lateral cephalography and cone beam computed tomography before and after treatment.Cephalometric measurement items related to the angle and line distance,lip/lingual bone cracking length(d-La/d-Li)and bone cracking/bone fenestration of the lower anterior teeth before and after treatment were measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Lateral X-ray films showed that the amount of alveolar bone remodeling after decompensation of the lower anterior teeth showed significant changes compared to before treatment.The root of the tooth moved significantly towards the center of the alveolar bone,and the specific data was closer to normal data,but there were still some differences compared with normal individuals.Based on the cone-beam CT measurement,the bone cracking/bone fenestration length and width of the alveolar bone were improved in almost all the teeth after orthodontic-orthognathic combined treatment,alveolar bone remodeling in some teeth even reached the level of healthy individuals.Before treatment,most patients often experienced bone fenestration/cracking on the lip/lingual side of the lower incisor due to compensatory tooth growth.However,during the preoperative orthodontic stage,decompensation triggered alveolar bone remodeling and significant changes in tooth angle.Preoperative orthodontic treatment caused the upper anterior teeth to retract and the lower anterior teeth to tilt and control the root,but the amount of decompensation before surgery was often insufficient.In the orthognathic surgery stage,the jaw was removed through the positioning guide plate,the maxilla moved forward,and the mandible retreated.During the postoperative orthodontic process,the effect of fine adjustment was better.Although there is a certain degree of recurrence trend in the position of teeth and jawbones,the postoperative orthodontic treatment is closer to the normal value.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:The thin alveolar bone in the lower anterior region increases the risk of labial bone resorption when intruding the teeth with clear aligners.The effect of sagittal overcorrection design on the labiolingual control of mandibular anterior teeth intrusion has not been fully investigated. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of overcorrection on the changes in the displacement and stress of the mandibular anterior teeth,especially the cervical and apical regions. METHODS:Through a male volunteer cone-beam CT data,the three-dimensional reconstruction of the mandible and teeth was conducted in the MIMICS and GEOMAGIC software.Moreover,the models of periodontal ligaments,attachments,and appliances were created in the SOLIDWORKS software.First,the study was divided into canine intrusion group and incisor intrusion group.Then,the overcorrection(0°,1°,2°)was designed on the bilateral mandibular central and lateral incisors.A total of six models were established.The models were assembled and imported into the ANSYS software to analyze and calculate the displacement and stress level. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the canine intrusion group,canines intruded and tipped lingually while incisors extruded and tipped lingually.In the incisor intrusion group,canines extruded and tipped lingually while incisors intruded and tipped lingually.(2)Without overcorrection,the incisors necks moved lingually while apexes moved labially.With overcorrection,the incisors tended to be upright,followed by labial tilt.The least cervical and apical displacements were detected under 1° overcorrection.(3)With overcorrection,the incisal cervical stress concentration area shifted from labial to lingual in the canine intrusion group,whereas the stress concentration area shifted from lingual to labial in the incisor intrusion group.(4)The incisors tended to tilt lingually when intruding the mandibular anterior teeth with clear aligners.The sagittal overcorrection design was conductive to maintain the stable position of incisors.However,the amount of overcorrection should be moderate.Excessive overcorrection might increase the labial inclination tendencies of incisors.
RESUMO
Objective@#This study aimed to explore the root length of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth and central incisor crown-root morphology in patients with high-angle skeletal Class Ⅱ open bite, aiming to provide a reference for clinical treatment.@*. Methods@#This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee, and informed consent was obtained from the patients. CBCT images of eighty-one untreated patients (40 anterior open bite patients and 41 normal overbite patients) with high-angle skeletal Class Ⅱ malocclusion were selected before treatment. Dolphin software was used to study the root length of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth and central incisor crown-root morphology, and the differences between the two groups were analyzed.@*Results@#There was no statistical significance in the root length of maxillary lateral incisor and canine between the open bite group and the normal overbite group, significant differences were found in the root length of maxillary central incisor （11.12 ± 1.37） mm、mandibular central incisor（10.15 ± 1.09）mm, mandibular lateral incisor（11.27 ± 1.15）mm and mandibular canine（12.81 ± 1.48）mm between the open bite group and the normal overbite group（P<0.05）. On the other hand, the two groups were significantly different in crown-root morphology of the maxillary central incisor (1.10° ± 3.62° vs. 4.53° ± 2.30°, P<0.01) but not in the mandibular central incisor.@*Conclusion@#The root length of the maxillary central incisor, mandibular central incisor, mandibular lateral incisor, mandibular canine in high-angle Class Ⅱ open bite patients is shorter than that in high-angle Class Ⅱ normal overbite patients, and the long axis of the crown of the maxillary central incisor in high-angle Class Ⅱ open bite patients obviously deviates toward the labial side relative to the long axis of the root. The crown-root angle is smaller, which is beneficial to torque control or adduction movement of the anterior teeth in high-angle Class Ⅱ open bite patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the treatment methods and effects of immediate implant restoration in the aesthetic area of anterior teeth, and explain the advantages of its technology.Methods:A prospective selection was conducted on 100 patients admitted to the Department of Stomatology at the Hunan Second People′s Hospital from June 2019 to June 2022 who underwent implant surgery due to missing teeth in the aesthetic area of the anterior teeth. The patients were randomly divided into an immediate group and a conventional group, with 50 patients in each group. The immediate group received immediate implant restoration after tooth extraction, while the conventional group received delayed implant restoration after tooth extraction. We compared the aesthetic effects, implant success rate, and patient satisfaction at different times after surgery.Results:After 12 months of postoperative evaluation, both groups of patients achieved successful implant repair. The gingival red aesthetic index score on the day after immediate implantation surgery in the immediate group was higher than that in the conventional group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); At 6 and 12 months after surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). After completing permanent repair, the satisfaction of patients in the immediate group was significantly higher than that in the conventional group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Adopting immediate implant restoration technology in the aesthetic area of anterior teeth can reduce the number of surgeries and treatment time, achieve better aesthetic results in the early stage, and improve patient satisfaction.
RESUMO
@#Introduction: Labial bone with adequate height and width is crucial for an implant to be successfully placed and ensure the stability of treatment outcome in the long term. The objective of this study was to employ cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) assessment in evaluating the differences in labial alveolar bone morphology among the Kuantan population in Malaysia. Methods: A total of 60 images taken from Kulliyyah of Dentistry, International Islamic University Malaysia, between 2009 and 2019 were analysed. The root diameter, labial and palatal plate thickness, the labial bony curvature angle beneath the root apex, and the distance from the deepest point of labial bony curvature to the root apex were all measured on each of the maxillary anterior teeth. Results: At 3 mm below the cementoenamel junction, the mean (± standard deviation; SD) thickness of the labial plate for maxillary anterior teeth was 1.45 ± 0.62 mm, 1.38 ± 0.50 mm, and 1.61 ± 0.66 mm for the lateral incisor, central incisor, and canine, respectively. Below the root apex, the labial bony curvature angle was 233.63 ± 17.74 for the central incisor, 235.68 ± 17.74 for the lateral incisor and 233.81 ± 11.09 for the canine. Discussion: The result revealed a favourable labial plate in the Kuantan population when implant in the aesthetic zone is planned. Conclusion: Labial alveolar bone thickness of the Kuantan population was thin within 1.5 mm while the palatal plate was thick. Overall, labial alveolar bone was present within 3 mm below the cementoenamel junction. The labial bony curvature was highest and most curved for the central incisor compared to the lateral incisor and canine.
RESUMO
@#It has been traditionally believed that a 1:1 cortical bone remodeling/tooth movement ratio has been preserved during orthodontic treatment for tooth movement, with the alveolar bone on the tension side growing and the alveolar bone on the pressure side resorbing to maintain the balance of the alveolar bone. However, recent studies have shown that alveolar bone loss has been found in patients who have undergone orthodontic treatment, suggesting that the alveolar bone does not change as the teeth change over time. Whether the morphology of the alveolar bone will change when the anterior teeth are moved has been the clinical focus. The changes of anterior alveolar bone in patients who have undergone tooth extraction after orthodontic treatment were summerized by literature review in this paper. The results of the review showed that the alveolar bone at the lingual/palatal root-cervical site of the anterior root is more prone to bone loss after extensive movement of the anterior teeth. With the development of imaging technology, CBCT is now more commonly used for analysis instead of two-dimensional images for measurement, as its results are more accurate. However, there are few multifactorial studies in which CBCT has been used to assess the morphological changes in the alveolar bone. The focus of future research is to compare the long-term changes in the anterior alveolar bone of patients of different ages based on three-dimensional imaging, and to study the correlation between different skeletal features, tooth movement patterns and alveolar bone remodeling.
RESUMO
@#After tooth extraction, labial contour collapses due to inevitable physiologic bone remodeling. To achieve optimal outcomes for pink esthetic treatment at anterior implant sites, bone or soft tissue augmentation has been advocated to maintain or reconstruct the labial tissue contour. When choosing soft tissue augmentation for esthetic restoration, it is necessary to strictly grasp the indications for surgery. Soft tissue augmentation to maintain or reconstruct the labial tissue contour could be considered in patients with healthy soft tissue and no bone defects or only mild horizontal bone defects. In immediate, early and late implant placement, the timing of soft tissue augmentation may vary. In immediate implantation, the labial bone plate is intact, so it is highly recommended to simultaneously manage soft tissue during implant placement. However, patients may have large bone defects with early or late implant placement. The risk of augmenting bone and soft tissue simultaneously is likely too high, and bone augmentation surgery is often performed at the first stage while soft tissue augmentation surgery is performed at the second stage. Therefore, soft tissue surgery is often carried out simultaneously with abutment connection. Currently, soft tissue augmentation is achieved mostly with adjacent autologous soft tissue grafts, such as free gingival grafts, subepithelial connective tissue grafts or pedicle palatal flaps, which are often accompanied by a second surgical area. The replacement of autogenous soft tissue grafting with new biological materials will become an inevitable trend. In this article, we analyze and summarize the indications, timing and different methods of soft tissue augmentation to maintain and reconstruct the labial contour.
RESUMO
Background: Partial pulpotomy is a procedural intervention that can maintain the vitality of pulp during the management of traumatized permanent teeth with pulpal involvement. Aim: To evaluate whether partial pulpotomy can be considered a reliable conservative treatment option for treating traumatized permanent anterior teeth with pulpal involvement. Methodology: A computerized systematic search was performed in PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane, and LILACS databases from 1980 to May 2021. Five studies were included in the final analysis. Quality assessment, Meta?analysis, and Publication bias of the studies were evaluated. This systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (ID – CRD42021262031). Result: The comprehensive Meta?Analysis Software was used. The test of the heterogeneity was analysed using Cochran’s Q statistics. The Q value was 7.186 (df = 6) with a P value of 0.3 and I2 as 16.5%. The studies were considered homogenous, and the fixed?effect model showed an overall point estimate of 0.89 with a 95% confidence interval (0.86–0.91). The Begg and Egger funnel plot indicated that there was no publication bias in the included studies. Conclusion: Evidence indicates that partial pulpotomy may be considered a reliable definitive treatment option in asymptomatic traumatized permanent anterior teeth with exposed pulp rather than total pulpotomy.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the application effect of a four-dimensional smile design as the leading and facial streamline as the reference system in the aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth.@*Methods@# A case of scattered space in anterior teeth was treated with a four-dimensional smile design and digital aesthetic restoration with ultrathin porcelain veneer. The digital information of the patients was obtained through oral and facial scanning, and a four-dimensional smile design and prediction were carried out. After the treatment plan was jointly determined by doctors and patients, minimally invasive abutment preparation was carried out, and ultrathin porcelain veneer was made and bonded in place. After the operation, the esthetic degree and marginal fit were observed and reexamined one year after the repair.@* Results @#The edges of the ultrathin ceramic veneers were naturally tight, and the color was coordinated, with satisfying pink and white esthetics. The face was more harmonious and natural when smiling. One year after the restoration, the facial aesthetics were wonderful, the abutment teeth and periodontal tissues were healthy, and the patients were satisfied. The results of the literature review showed that the fitting of temporal facial scanning and intraoral scanning data can accurately predict four-dimensional smile aesthetics, simulate the real state of the dynamic smile and pronunciation process, and combine it with facial streamlines to design a natural and coordinated personalized smile for patients with asymmetric faces. However, for patients with occlusal changes, unstable occlusion or temporomandibular joint disorder, it is necessary to add data fitting, such as electronic facial arch and cone beam CT, to more accurately simulate postoperative mandibular movement.@*Conclusion@# With a four-dimensional smile design as the leading and facial streamline as the reference system, the whole process digital design assisted the restoration of asymmetric anterior teeth with ultrathin porcelain veneer and had a good effect. The postoperative smiling of patients is harmonious and beautiful, which is in line with the expected effect. Patient participation and satisfaction are high; thus, this method is worthy of clinical promotion.
RESUMO
@#Root fracture is a kind of dental trauma involving dentin, cementum, pulp tissue, periodontal membrane ligament and even the surrounding alveolar bone. It occurs frequently between the ages of 10-20, mostly in the area of the maxillary anterior teeth with high aesthetic requirements. The treatment goal for root fracture in permanent teeth is to maintain the physiological and functional integrity of the tooth as much as possible and to reduce the incidence of complications. Clinicians usually classify the affected teeth according to the position of the root fracture, including the apical, mid-root, cervical-mid-root and cervical segments, since it determines the treatment plan and the prognosis of the affected teeth. CBCT examination can avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis of root fracture to the greatest extent. The sequential treatment plan of root fracture after permanent anterior tooth trauma includes initial emergency treatment, pulp vitality monitoring and complication management during follow-up. Emergency treatment mainly includes local anesthesia and repositioning, if displaced, the coronal segment of the tooth as soon as possible. Then, after checking its position radiographically, adjustment occlusion and flexible splinting for 4 weeks (4 months for cervical root fracture). The process of root fracture repair includes many tissues and is affected by many clinical factors. Timely and standardized treatment and close follow-up according to the Dental Trauma Guideline guarantee a good prognosis of root fracture. The closer the root fracture line is to the apex, the higher the survival rate is. In addition to the location of the root fracture line, the prognosis is affected by many other clinical factors, such as the displacement of the coronal fragment of the root fracture, the pathological state of the dental pulp, patient age, developmental stage of the root, timely and good replacement of the root fracture, splinting method, and the presence of other dental trauma complications. Pulp vitality should be monitored regularly, and root canal therapy of the coronal segment should be carried out only when infection of the pulp is established. This article reviews the classification, diagnosis, emergency treatment, sequential follow-up treatment, and prognostic assessment of root fracture trauma to provide suggestions for clinicians to manage root fracture trauma in permanent teeth.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the discrepancy of crown-root morphology of anterior teeth, using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), and to provide a guidance for proper torque expression. Methods: A total of eligible 200 CBCT were imported into Invivo v. 5.4 software, to obtain the middle labio-lingual sections of anterior teeth. AutoCAD 2007 software was applied to measure the crown-root angulation (Collum angle) and the angle formed by a tangent to the center of the labial surface and the long axis of the crown (labial surface angle). SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical comparisons of the two measurements, at the level of p< 0.05, and the Pearson correlation analysis was applied to investigate the association between the two measurements. Results: The value of Collum angle in maxillary central incisor was close to 0°. Significantly negative Collum angle in lateral incisors and maxillary canine, and positive value in mandibular canine were detected (p < 0.001). The labial surface angle in canine was significantly greater than the intra-arch incisors (p< 0.001), and no significant difference was detected between the central and lateral incisors (p > 0.05). Notably, there was also a significant positive correlation between the two measurements. Conclusions: The crown-root angulations were greatly different among anterior teeth. Accompanying the obvious crown-root angulations, the canines both in maxillary and mandibular arches presented considerable labial surface curvatures. Hence, equivalent deviation during bracket bonding might cause greater torque expression error and increase the risk of alveolar fenestration and dehiscence.
RESUMO Objetivo: Determinar a discrepância na morfologia coroa-raiz de dentes anteriores, utilizando tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC), e fornecer parâmetros para a expressão apropriada do torque. Método: No total, 200 tomografias elegíveis foram importadas para o software Invivo 5.4 para obtenção das secções médias vestibulolinguais dos dentes anteriores. Osoftware AutoCAD 2007 foi usado para medir a angulação coroa-raiz (ângulo Collum) e o ângulo formado por uma tangente ao centro da superfície vestibular da coroa e o longo eixo da coroa (ângulo da superfície vestibular). O software SPSS 18.0 foi utilizado para as comparações estatísticas das duas medições, com nível de significância de p< 0,05, e a análise de correlação de Pearson foi aplicada para investigar a associação entre as duas medições. Resultados: O valor do ângulo Collum do incisivo central superior foi próximo a 0°. Foram detectados valores significativamente negativos para o ângulo Collum nos incisivos laterais e caninos superiores, mas valores positivos nos caninos inferiores (p< 0,001). O ângulo da superfície vestibular no canino foi significativamente maior do que nos incisivos intra-arcada (p< 0,001), e nenhuma diferença significativa foi detectada entre incisivos centrais e laterais (p> 0,05). Também foi observada uma correlação positiva significativa entre as duas medições. Conclusões: As angulações coroa-raiz foram muito diferentes entre os dentes anteriores. Os caninos superiores e inferiores apresentaram considerável curvatura na superfície vestibular, associada a uma evidente angulação coroa-raiz. Consequentemente, desvios durante a colagem de braquetes podem desencadear maior erro na expressão de torque e aumentar o risco de fenestração alveolar e deiscência, sendo necessária uma avaliação antes da colagem.

Objective@# Through a pain study of buccal gingival mucosa sensitivity of the mandible, the corresponding sensitive area of pain was determined, which provided the basis for reducing the pain and discomfort of oral diagnosis and treatment.@*Methods@#400 patients with mandibular tooth extraction in the outpatient department of stomatology were selected. During tooth extraction, articaine epinephrine injection was used for infiltration anesthesia. The injection needle size was 0.3 mm × 21 mm, and the injection site was about 5 mm away from the buccal gingival margin. The pain degree of the patients was recorded. The data were statistically analyzed using the modified International pain classification method.@*Results @#Among the 400 patients who underwent mandible extraction, 75% (300 patients) graded their pain from painless to moderate, and 25% (100 patients) reported moderate to severe and severe pain. Of those in the moderate to severe and severe groups, 50% and 42% reported pain in the central and lateral incisors, respectively, and 38% were in the canine group. When comparing the moderate to severe and the severe groups, 16% and 10% were in the bicuspid group, 16% and 12% and 16% were in the molar group, respectively . There were significant differences in the pain sensitivity of different teeth positions (χ2=54.203, P < 0.001). The proportion of moderate to severe and severe pain in the anterior teeth group was higher than it was in the posterior teeth group (χ2=55.555, P < 0.001). There were significant differences in the pain sensitivity of different ages (χ2=96.501, P=0.000), and there was a positive correlation between pain and age (r=0.465, P < 0.001). The proportion of women with at least a moderate degree of pain was higher than that of men (χ2=12.298, P=0.031). @*Conclusion@# The sensitivity of the buccal gingival mucosa to pain is different in different positions of the mandible. The sensitivity of the anterior gingiva is higher than that of the posterior gingiva. Age is positively correlated with the degree of pain. Further, compared with men, women are more sensitive to pain.

The bone augmentation in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P=0.000). @*Conclusion@#CGF applied in GBR has a good effect on bone augmentation for severe bone deficiency in the anterior maxilla.
RESUMO
An injury to the anterior teeth can affect a perfect smile and thus have an adverse effect on the psychology of the individual. Traumatic injuries to the anterior teeth among the young children are tragic but often an ignored problem. The aim of the study is to determine the impact of traumatic dental injuries to permanent anterior teeth on the quality of life of children of 7–14years of age and their parents. A cross sectional survey was conducted in 25 schools in and around Mangalore South. The study participants included parents of children with age group of 7–14 years. Participants will be informed about the purpose of the study and a questionnaire will be distributed to the children who have undergone traumatic dental injury. The results of this study showed that 94.6% children did not miss school due to traumatic injury but 5.4% children missed the school. Similarly, on evaluating the impact on the parents, 99.1% parents did not leave from work for this same reason. This study shows that there is no impact on the quality of life of the children and their parents. The parents and children should be given awareness on the importance of trauma to the teeth and its management.
RESUMO
Introduction: Dental trauma is an irreversible pathologyand it is a commonly encountered problem in school childrenwhich after occurrence is characterized by lifelong debilitatingeffects because of physical, psychological discomfort andpain. Thus a study was conducted to assess the prevalence ofthe traumatic dental injuries to the permanent anterior teeth inrelation to occlusal relationship among 7-14 years old schoolchildren in Chitradurga townMaterial and Methods: Descriptive cross sectional studywas conducted among 3,363, 7-14 years old school childrenof Chitradurga Town. WHO (ICD-DA) 1995 Classificationwas used for assessing traumatic dental injuries and Angle’sclassification with Dewey’s Modification was used forrecording occlusal relationship. Fifteen Primary and HigherPrimary Schools and Five High schools were selected usingsimple random sampling procedure. Children aged 7-14 yearswere included in the study. Data was recorded using speciallydesigned proforma. The collected data was subjected tostatistical analysis.Results: Among 3,363 children examined prevalence rate was5.5% with higher prevalence in boys than girls. Prevalenceof traumatic dental injuries was more in the age group of10-12 years. Traumatic injuries of permanent anterior teethinvolved both maxillary and mandibular teeth with the higherprevalence in Maxillary anterior’s. Enamel fracture was thehighest (87.8%). Children with Class I type 2 and class IIdivision 1 occlusal relation exhibited very highly significantnumber of dental injuries.Conclusion: Prevalence of traumatic dental injuries wasmore in the age group of 10-12 years. Children with ClassI and class II division 1 occlusal relation exhibited veryhighly significant number of dental injuries than other type ofocclusal relationship
RESUMO
The purpose of this study was to obtain instructions for size selection of prefabricated crown and tooth reduction by 3-dimensional analysis of the size and shape of the maxillary primary central and lateral incisors and prefabricated crowns (celluloid strip, resin veneered stainless steel, and zirconia crowns).The maxillary primary central and lateral incisors of 300 Korean children was scanned with three types of prefabricated crown to create standard three-dimensional tooth models and prefabricated crowns. The shapes of the prefabricated crowns and natural teeth were compared according to four parameters (mesio-distal width, height, labio-palatal width, and labial surface curvature coefficient) and calculated the amount of tooth reduction required for each prefabricated crown.The size 2 resin veneered stainless steel crown, size 1 zirconia crown, and size 2 celluloid strip crown were most similar in shape to the primary central incisor. The size 3 rein veneered stainless steel crown, size 2 zirconia crown, and size 3 celluloid strip crown were most similar to the primary lateral incisor.The amount of tooth reduction was similar in both maxillary primary central and lateral incisors. The incisal reduction was greatest for the zirconia crown. At the proximal surface, the zirconia and celluloid strip crowns required a similar amount of tooth reduction, but more than the resin veneered stainless steel crown. The labial surface reduction was greatest for the zirconia crown. The degree of lingual surface reduction was not significant among the three prefabricated crowns.Among the assessment parameters, mesio-distal crown width was the most important for choosing a prefabricated crown closest to the actual size of the natural crown.
