RESUMO

A systematic approach to treating complete mouth reconstructions is essential to achieve optimal treatment results, and current conventional methods do not always provide a fully controlled setting. The utilization of digital ecosystems allows for creating more predictable and efficient workflows in fixed prosthodontic reconstructions.

RESUMO

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Although in vitro studies have investigated the accuracy of virtual interocclusal records, clinical research on their ability to register virtual dental casts accurately is lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of the virtual interocclusal records of an intraoral scanning system compared with conventional polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) interocclusal records. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three conventional interocclusal records followed by 3 virtual interocclusal records per side per participant were made in 10 participants. Three sites of close proximity (SCP) and 3 sites of clearance (SC) per side per participant were identified on the transilluminated conventional interocclusal PVS records for a total of 60 SCP and SC. The presence or absence of these sites on the virtual interocclusal records was analyzed by using an independent software program. RESULTS: The sensitivity for correct identification in the virtual interocclusal record was 87%, and its specificity was 95%. The positive predictive value was 95%, and the negative predictive value was 88%. For reproducibility, 74% of the SCP were detected consistently for all 3 repeated scans, and 92% of the SCs were identified accurately. CONCLUSIONS: The accuracy of virtual interocclusal records in identifying interocclusal contacts is clinically acceptable. However, the method tends to miss interocclusal contacts rather than introducing false ones and can result in perforations between the opposing virtual casts. Repeated buccal occlusal scans made of the same side showed fair reproducibility, and this aspect would benefit from further investigation.

RESUMO

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Evidence on the accuracy and reproducibility of the virtual interocclusal registration procedure and recommendations as to how to make a virtual interocclusal record are lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess whether virtual interocclusal registration records made at different locations around the arch affect the alignment of virtual casts, and to assess whether quadrant and complete arch scans have different effects on cast alignment when they are articulated with virtual interocclusal records. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three sites of close proximity (SCPs) and 3 sites of clearance (SCs) were identified in each sextant of mounted zirconia master models. The SCPs and SCs were confirmed by using shimstock foil and the transillumination of an interocclusal impression. Complete-arch and quadrant scans of the master models were made with an intraoral scanner and registered with different virtual interocclusal registration records. The SCPs and SCs indicated by the scanner's software and by independent software were compared according to the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of each method. RESULTS: Changed locations of SCPs were found depending on the location of the virtual interocclusal registration record. The intraoral scanner's software contacts had a higher sensitivity of 92.86% and a negative predictive value of 84.21% than the contacts revealed by the independent software that exhibited a sensitivity of 69.05% and a negative predictive value of 70.45%. However, the intraoral scanner software had a lower specificity of 41.03% and a positive predictive value of 62.90% compared with the independent software, which exhibited a specificity of 79.49% and a positive predictive value of 78.38%. The quadrant scans had a higher sensitivity than did the complete-arch scans. CONCLUSIONS: Different occlusal contacts are obtained from interocclusal registration scans in different segments of the dental arch. The difference is more obvious in complete-arch scans, where a tilting effect toward the site of the interocclusal registration scan was observed. Occlusal contacts obtained from interocclusal registration scans for quadrant scans had a higher sensitivity than did those for complete-arch scans.

RESUMO

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Dental implants can be essential in the rehabilitation of various cancer defects, but their ideal placement can be complicated by the limited dimensions of the available host bone. Surgical interventions developed to increase the amount of bone are not all predictable or successful and can sometimes be contraindicated. Short dental implants have been suggested as an alternative option in sites where longer implants are not possible. Whether they provide a successful treatment option is unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to review the literature on short dental implants and assess whether they are a viable definitive treatment option for rehabilitating cancer patients with deficient bone. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A scoping review of the literature was performed, including a search of established periodontal textbooks for articles on short dental implants combined with a search of PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. A search for all literature published before June 2016 was based on the following keywords: ['dental implants' OR 'dental implantation, endosseous' OR 'dental prosthesis, implant supported'] AND [short]. RESULTS: The minimum acceptable implant length has been considered to be 6 mm. The survival rates of short implants varied between 74% and 96% at 5 years, depending on factors such as the quality of the patient's bone, primary stability of the implant, clinician's learning curve, and implant surface. Short implants can achieve results similar to those of longer implants in augmented bone and offer a treatment alternative that could reduce the need for invasive surgery and associated morbidity and be safer and more economical. CONCLUSIONS: Short dental implants (6 mm to 8 mm) can be used successfully to support single or multiple fixed reconstructions or overdentures in atrophic maxillae and mandibles. The use of short dental implants lessens the need for advanced and complicated surgical bone augmentation procedures, which reduces complications, costs, treatment time, and morbidity. Short implants could be an alternative in the rehabilitation of patients with cancer.

RESUMO

Rotatory dental instruments generate atmospheric aerosols that settle on various surfaces, including the dentist's head. The aim of this study was to quantitatively assess bacterial contamination of the dentist's head and to evaluate whether it is affected by using a rubber dam. Senior dental students (n=52) were asked to wear autoclaved headscarves as collection media while performing restorative dental treatment with and without a rubber dam. Four points from each headscarf were swabbed for bacterial culture after 30min of operative work. Bacterial contamination was quantified by counting the colony-forming units. Regardless of the collection point, using a rubber dam was associated with more bacterial colony-forming units than not using a rubber dam (P=0.009). Despite its clinical value, the rubber dam seems to result in significantly higher aerosol levels on various areas of the dentist's head, requiring that dentists cover their heads with suitable protective wear.
