Abstract:

Ceramics have rapidly emerged as one of the major dental biomaterials in prosthodontics due to exceptional aesthetics and outstanding biocompatibility. However, a challenging aspect remaining is its higher failure rate due to brittleness, which has to a certain extent prevented the ceramics from fully replacing metals in such major dental restorations as multi-unit bridges. This paper aims at simulating the crack initiation and propagation in dental bridge. Unlike the existing studies with prescriptions of initial cracks, the numerical model presented herein will predict the progressive damage in the bridge structure which precedes crack initiation. This will then be followed by automatic crack insertion and subsequent crack growth within a continuum to discrete framework. It is found that the numerical simulation correlates well to the clinical and laboratory observations.

Abstract:

Yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) is used for dental prosthodontics, however, it can present accelerated tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation in oral environment. The aim of this study was to compare the behavior of a Y-TZP synthesized in laboratory by the coprecipitation method to a commercial Y-TZP, after hydrothermal aging in pressurized reactor (150°C/ 35 hours). The discs were sintered at 1520°C for two hours. The kinetics curve of phase transformation was determined through the data collect by XRD diffractograms treated by the Rietveld method. The experimental and commercial control groups did not present monoclinic phase. After 35 hours of aging, the experimental group presented 69% of monoclinic phase compared to 67% for the commercial group. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images suggested that the commercial group presented heterogeneity of grain size and that the experimental group was more homogeneous. All groups presented superficial degradation process.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to compare the biofilm formation on three types of dental crown materials using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) driven bioluminescence as an innovative tool for the rapid chairside enumeration of oral bacteria and assessment of oral hygiene. The study group included 60 patients with fixed prosthodontics, made of three types of dental crown materials (BioHpp - Bredent, Ceramics - VITA VMK Master, and Zirconia - Vita In-Ceram) from which we have collected 60 specimen values using a luciferase-based assay system (system SURE II). The values of ATP were obtained with System SURE II device and statistically analyzed with Anova and Wilcoxon Test. The lowest value was shown for Zirconia, comparing with ceramics and BioHpp, but in time we have seen the increase of ATP for all three dental crown materials.

Abstract:

At no time in recent history has the interest in esthetics, biological safety, and the relative cost and efficacy of dental care been greater. In view of porcelain's desirable esthetic properties and biocompatibility, it is understandable that the major emphasis in ceramics research has been directed toward an enhancement of the strength, longevity, and esthetic properties of porcelain restorations. The ceramo-metal restoration is still the mainstay of fixed prosthodontics and finds broad application in high-stress areas and for the restoration of multiple units. Research has focused upon minimizing destructive interfacial stresses, improvement in esthetics, and the development of dispersion-strengthened porcelains. Advances in individual porcelain jacket crowns have included the use of higher strength aluminous porcelain, the use of tin-plated platinum foil, bonding porcelain to a swaged gold and palladium foil matrix, and the most recent development-castable glass ceramic materials.

Abstract:

In order to clarify the friction phenomenon of zirconia ceramics in the dental prosthodontics, tribological properties of surface topography in ultrasonic vibration-assisted grinding (UVAG) are studied in this work. The mechanism of material removal is researched to introduce the discontinuous grooves in UVAG theoretically. The UVAG experiments are conducted on zirconia ceramics. Through investigating and comparing experimental results, it is found that UVAG surface has better tribological properties compared with diamond grinding surface. 3D surface roughnesses of UVAG surface are improved when suitable spindle speed, large feed, small cutting depth, and large vibration amplitude are adopted. Surface topography in UVAG changes from thorn scaly to discontinuous shallow furrow when feed increases and spindle speed decreases. The discontinuous grooves are most apparent when vibration amplitude is maximum. Furthermore, the friction coefficient is experimentally studied. The results indicate that there is no significant difference among all the friction coefficients in UVAG. Proper cutting and vibration parameters can improve the average friction coefficient.

Abstract:

This study prepared a basic framework for the development and improvement of Korean Dental Technicians' Licensing Examination, based on actual test questions. A peer review was conducted to ensure relevance to current practices in dental technology. For the statistical analysis, 1000 dental laboratory technicians were selected; specialists in dental laboratory technology (laboratory owners, educators, etc.) were involved in creating valid and reliable questions. Results indicated that examination subjects should be divided into three categories: basic dental laboratory theory, dental laboratory specialties, and a practical examination. To ensure relevance to current practice, there should be less emphasis on basic dental laboratory theory, including health-related laws, and more emphasis on dental laboratory specialties. Introduction to dental anatomy should be separated from oral anatomy and tooth morphology; and fixed prosthodontics should be separated from crown and bridge technology and dental ceramics technology. Removable orthodontic appliance technology should be renamed 'orthodontic laboratory technology'. There should be less questions related to health related law, oral anatomy, dental hygiene, dental materials science and inlay, while the distribution ratio of questions related to tooth morphology should be maintained. There should be a decrease in the distribution ratio of questions related to crown and bridge technology, dental ceramics technology, complete dentures and removable partial dentures technology, and orthodontic laboratory technology. In the practical examination, the current multiple choice test should be replaced with tooth carving using wax or plaster. In dental laboratory specialties, subjects related to contemporary dental laboratory technology should be included in the test items.

Abstract:

The latest method for creating denture replenishment in CAD / CAM systems is Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) technology. With the use of DMLS, prosthodontics, implant prosthetics, and facial-cranialjaw surgery adapted to individual patient conditions can be realized. The aim is to evaluate the strength, microstructure, and tribological properties of Ti6Al4V and CoCrMo alloys obtained from DMLS technology in the aspect of therapeutic constructions. The conducted tests show that, in the DMLS technology, as compared to milling technology preceded by casting and forging or pressed powder and sintering, for the same percentage composition of elements, the micromechanical properties, microstructural and tribological change. This procedure, from which constructions for various dental applications are obtained, is the new technology preferred for making permanent restorations faced with ceramics, producing intravascular implants, and implants of the temporomandibular joint. It can be an alternative to conventional cast-based methods and CAD / CAM based milling.

Abstract:

Introduction: Hot pressed ceramics is usually used in prosthodontics as restorative material, being important to evaluate which cementation strategy generates better union between this ceramic and dental structure.Aim: To evaluate the effect of mechanical cycling on bond strength between a hot-pressed glass-ceramic and dentin, using different cementation strategies. Materials and Methods: Sixty molar teeth with flat oclusal dentin surface were allocated in six groups: Gr1-Self-adhesive resin cement; Gr2-Self-adhesive resin cement + Mechanical Cycling(MC); Gr3-Total etch adhesive + conventional resin cement; Gr4-Total etch adhesive + conventional resin cement + MC; Gr5-Self-etching adhesive + resin cement with MDP; Gr6-Self-etching adhesive + resin cement with MDP + MC. Sixty hot-pressed leucite-based all-ceramic restorations were cemented as recommended by manufacturers. Bar-shaped samples of 1 mm2 of cross-sectional bonding area were obtained and the microtensile test were conducted. Data were submitted to ANOVA-two way and Tukey test (α=0.05). Results: Mechanical cycling did not influence the results (p=0.1576), but cementation strategy (p=0.0419) affected. RelyX U100 showed the lowest values (7.0±5.0), RelyX ARC showed highest values (10.6±4.5) and Panavia F showed intermediary values (8.5±5.1). Conclusion: 2.106 million cycles are not able to damage the union between resin cement and dentin; conventional adhesive cementation strategy promoted the more stable interfaces between restoration and dentin.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Although there have been a lot of advances in the field of esthetic and cosmetic restorative dentistry, metal—ceramic restorations stand apart in the race to achieve superior esthetics with its strong points of strength and accuracy of cast metal and esthetics of porcelain. To achieve superior esthetic restorations operators are compelled to narrow down their search to all ceramic restorations which are highly expensive. At most times, its use is not rightly justified. A case of a 53-year-old female patient, who reported to the Department of Prosthodontics and Crown 8 Bridge, Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Manipal, is presented here where simple and economic restorative techniques and principles are undertaken to achieve predicable esthetic results.

Abstract:

Powder metallurgy (PM) commercial purity titanium (CP Ti) was fabricated and studied, with an aim of utilization for dental application. PM CP Ti was manufactured using a cost effective approach, where affordable hydrogenation–dehydrogenation (HDH) process Ti 99.4 wt.% powder was consolidated via the following sequence of PM techniques: cold isostatic pressing, warm vacuum pressing at 420 °C and warm direct extrusion at 500 °C. The paper presents the first studies on processing, microstructure, testing of mechanical properties, fatigue performance and bonding strength with different veneer coatings. By employed consolidation process sound material with low porosity (1.5%) and sustained oxygen content (0.21 wt.%) was attained. The tensile properties obtained for PM CP Ti (UTS = 701 MPa, YS0.2 = 512 MPa, ε = 13 %) were improved over to those for cast / milled CP Ti Grade 4 reference, the material commonly used in dentistry. Tested using the ISO 14801 standard for dental implants, the samples machined from PM CP Ti showed fatigue performance similar to CP Ti Grade 4. PM CP Ti used as a metal base material in restoration metal – ceramic systems showed very good bond strength with three commercially available veneering ceramics and complied with the ISO 9693 standard. Within the limitations of this paper, the preliminary results demonstrated that performance of economic PM CP Ti is equal or superior to CP Ti Grade 4 reference material and it can be used in prosthodontics.

Abstract:

This study is aimed to provide an insight into the types of treatment carried out by postgraduate students in the past 10 years. A retrospective study was carried out between November 2019 and February 2020 by deriving data from postgraduate students’ clinical logbooks of three different cohorts of Master of Clinical Dentistry (Restorative Dentistry in Conservative Dentistry) in 2010, 2013 and 2016. This retrospective data was systematically extracted from the records and tabulated categorically using an Excel spreadsheet (Microsoft Office Excel 2019). A descriptive analysis was carried out to further evaluate the results. Overall, the types of treatment carried out in the field of endodontics and fixed prosthodontics has changed in the past 10 years. An increasing trend is seen in the placement of all ceramic crowns and primary root canal treatment procedures, while a decreasing pattern is evident for secondary root canal procedures and placement of dental bridges.

Abstract:

The goal of using virtual and augmented reality technologies in therapeutic interventions simulation, in the fixed prosthodontics (VirDenT) project, is to increase the quality of the educational process in dental faculties, by assisting students in learning how to prepare teeth for all-ceramic restorations. Its main component is an e-learning virtual reality-based software system that will be used for the developing skills in grinding teeth, needed in all-ceramic restorations. This paper presents a domain ontology that formally describes the knowledge of the domain problem that the VirDenT e-learning system dealt with. The ontology was developed based on the UML models of the VirDenT information system, making sure in this way the ontology captures knowledge identified and described in the analysis of the information system. At first, we constructed the taxonomy of these concepts, using the DOLCE ontology and its modules. Then, we defined the conceptual relations between the concepts. We also added SWRL rules that formally describe the business rules and knowledge previously identified. Finally, with the assistance of the Pellet reasoner system, we checked the ontology consistency.

Abstract:

AbstractA wide variety of dental ceramics is launched every year. Therefore, clinicians should constantly study and update themselves to correctly indicate these materials. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the association of dentists’ academic aspects with their knowledge and the indication of dental ceramics for metal-free restorations. All the dentists from private clinics who affirmed to perform prosthetic treatments on their patients in a Southern Brazilian city were personally invited to this research to avoid dropouts. Participants answered questions related to their knowledge of different dental materials, their information sources and usage frequency of ceramic materials, and related to their academic training/education. Chi-square tests were performed to evaluate the association among the outcomes (knowledge of different materials, information sources considered for material selection and their frequencies of use) and exposure variables (time since graduation and post-graduation degree). Significant associations were also submitted to Chi-square residual analysis. A response rate of 73.3% was reached. The most known and used materials were Y-TZP and porcelain veneered zirconia, respectively, whereas the least known was leucite-based ceramic. The majority of the professionals with at least 25 years since graduation claimed not to know lithium disilicate or leucite-based ceramics, and a significant number of these professionals allow the laboratory prostheses technician to choose the restorative material. In addition, most of dentists with no post-graduation said they did not have knowledge about leucite and lithium disilicate. It was evidenced that continuing education plays an important role in the dentists’ attitudes regarding ceramic materials. Keywords: Surveys and Questionnaires. Ceramics. Prosthodontics. ResumoUma grande variedade de cerâmicas é lançada no mercado a cada ano. Portanto, os clínicos devem se manter em constante estudo e atualização para indicar corretamente o uso desses materiais. Assim, este estudo transversal teve por objetivo avaliar a associação entre aspectos acadêmicos de dentistas com seus conhecimentos e as indicações de cerâmicas dentárias para uso em restaurações livres de metal. Para isso, todos os dentistas de clínicas privadas que afirmaram realizar tratamentos protéticos em seus pacientes em uma cidade do sul do Brasil foram pessoalmente convidados a participar desta pesquisa para evitar desistências. Os participantes responderam a questões relacionadas ao seu conhecimento sobre diferentes materiais dentários, suas fontes de informação, a frequência de uso de materiais cerâmicos, e, também, sobre sua formação acadêmica. Testes qui-quadrado foram realizados para avaliar a associação entre os desfechos (conhecimento de diferentes materiais, fontes de informação consideradas para a seleção do material e sua frequência de uso) e as variáveis de exposição (tempo desde a graduação e grau de pós-graduação). As associações significativas foram submetidas à análise de resíduos do qui-quadrado. A taxa de resposta obtida foi de 73,3%. O material mais conhecido e usado foi a Y-TZP e zircônia recoberta por porcelana, respectivamente, enquanto que o material menos conhecido foi a cerâmica a base de leucita. A maioria dos profissionais com pelo menos 25 desde a graduação afirmaram não conhecer as cerâmicas a base de dissilicato de lítio ou leucita, e um significativo número desses profissionais permitem que o técnico em prótese dentária escolha o material restaurador. Ainda, a maioria dos dentistas sem pós-graduação disseram não conhecer as cerâmicas a base de dissilicato de lítio ou leucita. Concluiu-se que a educação continuada é um fator determinante nas atitudes de dentistas em relação aos materiais cerâmicos. Palavras-chave: Pesquisas e Questionários. Cerâmicas, Prótese Dentária

Abstract:

Summary Background: The preparation junction type is determined by a number of factors that need to be taken in consideration with CAD/CAM Fixed Prosthodontics: the used material; the condition of the retainer teeth, their periodontium and the occlusion; the design software and the type of drills; the working protocol; the cement and the method of cementation.The aim: of this article is to describe the optimal preparation junctions for CAD/CAM crown and bridge restorations made by ceramics based on zirconium dioxide and the basic factors that affect them.Materials and methods: Chamfer and radial shoulder preparation junctions are suitable (width 1 - 1, 5 mm). Trimming of 1, 5-2 mm dental tissues is necessary on the occlusal surface. The homothetic tooth reduction is optimal. The surface has to be smooth and the edges rounded.Results: The preparation width depends on the size and vitality of the tooth. In stained teeth the removal of more tissues provides a greater volume needed for masking the dark color. Vestibular preparation under the level of the gingiva is preferable to ensure optimal aesthetics. The preparation junction is determined also by the CAD/CAM software abilities, the type of drills and protocol of impression taking (classical or digital). The creation of a working model with an intraoral scanner is greatly facilitated by preparations above the gingival margin. Conclusions: Knowledge about the criteria for selection of preparation junctions is essential for fabrication of accurate and aesthetic CAD/CAM restorations.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare genetic condition affecting the development and homeostasis of two or more ectodermal structures, including hairs, teeth, nails, and some glandular organs. The prevalence is 1.621.9 per 100000. The teeth are affected in 79% of cases. Patients with ectodermal dysplasia have a low level of quality of life affected by unemployment, utilization of removable dentures, and a constant dry mouth condition. The main rehabilitation method of the masticatory-phonic elements for the patient with ectodermal dysplasia is conventional removable prosthodontics. The main treatment objective for these patients is to restore the missing elements of the masticatory-phonic apparatus for normalizing mastication, speech, deglutition, and creating optimal aesthetics. This approach can lead to restoring social activity by the increase of a patients quality of life. A clinical case report of patient M., 20 years old, is presented in this article. Treatment was completed one year ago. CLINICAL CASE: The rehabilitation strategy included producing screw-retained full ceramic opposing prostheses supported by six implants in the upper and lower jaws. DISCUSSION: The choice restoration method of the masticatory-phonic elements for patients with ectodermal dysplasia is prosthodontic treatment with the fabrication of ordinary removable dentures. Early attempts of implant treatment of patients with such conditions led to a low percentage of implant survival. In most works dedicated to treating patients with ectodermal dysplasia, the fabrication of implants supported by a metal resin hybrid prosthesis with acrylic teeth sets is the final rehabilitation. We decided to produce an implant supported by a zirconia ceramic prosthesis with partial layering for patient M. It was feasible because, first of all, his growth was finished, and also this decision gives us the possibility to fabricate a high quality implant supported by a prosthesis enabling optimum function with an unlimited service period. After finishing treatment, 100% of implants and prostheses last one year. CONCLUSION: It is necessary to engage all available clinic diagnostic, planning, therapeutic, and preventive resources to achieve a high aesthetic and functional result of the dental rehabilitation of patients with ectodermal dysplasia. Implementing implant supported prosthetic rehabilitation of such patients after reaching 17 years of age has to be the treatment of choice that could help achieve stable and reliable results. It might also foster social adaptation that would enable high quality of life.

Abstract:

Fiber reinforcement was introduced to clinical dentistry for the first time in the 1960s when investigators attempted to reinforce polymethyl-methacrylate dentures with glass or carbon fibers. It has recently been shown that crowns, bridges and posts made of FRC can be used successfully in dental practice and on the basis of marginal adaptation they are more acceptable than conventional metal ceramic crown. A prospective comparative cross-sectional study was performed involving 60 patients who attended in the out patients department of Prosthodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, BSMMU during the period of January 2007 to December 2008. Clinical data were recorded for the selected 60 patients who were divided into two groups experimental and control. Marginal adaptation was indexed after California Dental Associations quality evaluation system. The age of the patients ranged from 18 to 42 years in group A and 17 to 38 years in group B. The highest number of patients was in the age group 21-30 years in both the groups. The mean age was 24.9±5.8 years and 25.0±4.8 years in group A and group B respectively. There were 26 male and 34 female patients in the study and male female ratio was 1:1.3. In group A patients, 12(40.0%) were male and 18(60.0%) female. In group B patients 14(46.7%) were male and 16(53.3%) were female. After 4 months all the patients were in grade I in both the groups. After 8 months all the patients were in grade I in group A and 27(90.0%) patients in grade I in group B. After 12 months all the patients were in grade I in group A and 25(83.3%) patients were in grade I in group B. The difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05) after 8 months, however after 12 months the difference was significant (p<0.05). The Fiber Reinforced Composite crown represents a valuable development in the field of Prosthetic Dentistry.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The high esthetic expectations from the prosthodontic restorations have directed the qualitative development of the materials towards the all-ceramic materials that are capable of replacing porcelain-fused-to-metal systems. AIM: This article reviews the literature covering the contemporary all-ceramic materials and systems with a focus on the chemical composition and materials’ properties; also it provides clinical recommendations for their use. RESULTS: The glass-matrix ceramics and polycrystalline ceramics are presented, as well as recently introduced machinable materials, all-zirconia and resin-matrix ceramics. The specific properties of zirconia, such as transformation toughening, stabilisation of the crystallographic structure, low-temperature degradation and factors affecting the zirconia’s ageing, are emphasised. CONCLUSION: The favourable properties of the resin-matrix ceramics, such as modulus of elasticity similar to dentin, shock-absorbing characteristics and high resilience and fracture resistance, are also covered in this article.

Abstract:

Introdution: During many dental interventions, performed using handpiece instruments and pusters, an aerosol is created,which is converted into a bioaerosol (BIOA) by mixing with the particles of various organic components from the patient's oral cavity.When the high-speed mashine is started, the air becomes instantly contaminated and practically covers the entire room. Pollution is registered all the times, as well as after prosthetic treatment. BIOA created during prosthetic workcontains various bacteria, fungi and viruses from the patient's oral cavity. These microorganisms pose a real hazard to health workers and are a potential risk for infection. The most common pathogens include influenza viruses, herpes viruses, as well as pathogenic streptococci and staphylococci. Infectious diseases, biosynosis, acute toxic reactions, allergies, atopic diseases, conjunctivitis, contact dermatitis, infections of the respiratory system, and even some types of cancer, are possible manifestations of side effects of BIOA. Conclusion:BIOA poses a potential danger to contamination of air, work surfaces and objects in dental offices. Direct and indirect exposure of dental staff and patients to BIOA is especially pronounced in the conditions of COVID 19. Although it is impossible to completely eliminate the risk of adverse effects of BIOA, it is important to pay attention to all prevention measures that can reduce the likelihood of contamination.

Abstract:

Computer-aided design and manufacturing technology has been closely associated with implant-supported restoration. The digital system employed for prosthodontic restorations comprises data acquisition, processing, and manufacturing using subtractive or additive methods. As digital implantology has developed, optical scanning, computer-based digital algorithms, fabricating techniques, and numerical control skills have all rapidly improved in terms of their accuracy, which has resulted in the development of new ceramic materials with advanced esthetics and durability for clinical application. This study reviews the application of digital technology in implant-supported dental restoration and explores two globally utilized ceramic restorative materials: Yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline and lithium disilicate glass ceramics.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Infection control is an important concept in the present day practice of dentistry. Dentistry is predominantly a field of surgery, involving exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials and therefore, requires a high standard of Infection Control and Safety Many countries in the world have strong guidelines and recommendations for dental safety. In a country like India, the concept is new and needs to be advocated on the highest priority Infection control is important in dental practice to control patient-to-patient infectious disease transmission, and occupational exposure of dental health care personnel (DHCP) to infectious, chemical and other hazards present/encountered during the practice of dentistry. To avoid disease transmission it is important to understand the mechanism of transmission of infection, the pathogens involved and the Safety measures that can be undertaken. The prosthodontists are at an added risk of transmission because of the infection spreading through the contaminated lab equipments while working in the lab. The lab protocols should also be strictly followed along with the clinical protocols.

Abstract:

Introduction. Ceramic laminates are restorations that are bonded using adhesive techniques, which provide for the treatment of the prepared dental elements according to well-defined steps. Adhesive cementation guarantees high predictability and esthetics. Orthodontic treatment is the first choice in patients with a dental misalignment. Patients who have dental element color and shape issues will undergo restorative treatment following orthodontics. Case Report. This clinical report describes a case treated with an interdisciplinary approach (orthodontic and prosthetic) of a patient who presented with diastemas, inversion of dental axes, small clinical crowns, and chromatic imperfections in the anterior maxillary teeth. The esthetic expectations of the patient for the anterior portion of the maxillary anterior teeth have been successfully achieved through orthodontic treatment and the realization of ceramic veneers. An accurate interdisciplinary evaluation of the treatment was necessary for a satisfactory result in the anterior maxillary teeth esthetically compromised in several aspects. Discussion. The modern materials used with the strict protocol of the adhesive procedures allow a minimally invasive, highly esthetic approach with an excellent long-term prognosis. The restorations must reproduce the physiological characteristics of the natural teeth aiming at an excellent biological, biomechanical, functional, and esthetic integration. Many adult patients come to visit with a combination of problems; the esthetic rehabilitation of these cases requires the evaluation of the quantity of gingival exposure, of the gingival architecture, of the size of the clinical crowns, and of the dental position. The ideal treatment of these cases involves an interdisciplinary approach. Prosthodontists, periodontists, orthodontists, and dental technicians must work together because the understanding of the various phases of treatment is fundamental to achieve the desired clinical result. Conclusion. The coordinated treatment of the orthodontist, periodontist, and prosthodontist, with careful consideration of the expectations and requests of patients, was fundamental for the success and satisfaction of the patient.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND The primary goal of a medical team for managing patients suffering from tertiary disease (cancer) is to eliminate the disease or to remove the underlying pathology. Also, restoration along with rehabilitation of the defect to boost the confidence and self-esteem of the patients must be done. Rehabilitation usually is considered as a part of prosthodontics i.e., maxillofacial prosthodontics. But the scope of maxillofacial prosthodontics as a specialty does not find recognition amongst the multidisciplinary medical team in dealing with maxillofacial defects. The objective of the study was to evaluate the awareness and knowledge of the maxillofacial prosthodontics amongst medical practitioners in and around Wardha city. METHODS A descriptive, cross-sectional survey was conducted using a questionnaire. The validated questionnaire contained 14 questions, of which 13 were awareness based, and 1 was attitude based. It included relevant photographs. 219 medical practitioners working either in hospitals attached to educational institutes or private sector participated in the study. RESULTS The study reveals the percentage of medical practitioners who are aware about maxillofacial prosthodontics branch. Only 10.9 % were aware about maxillofacial prosthodontics as a branch of dentistry which deals with the restoration of maxillofacial defects. CONCLUSIONS The survey points towards a need to conduct awareness activities to make the medical practitioners aware of this fact. This will hopefully increase the patient’s referral with such defects to a maxillofacial prosthodontists or can include a maxillofacial prosthodontist as a part of multidisciplinary team that could benefit the patient for complete rehabilitation.

Abstract:

Bioceramics have rapidly emerged as one of major biomaterials in modern biomedical applications because of its outstanding biocompatibility. However, one drawback is its low tensile strength and fracture toughness due to brittleness and inherent microstructural defects, which to a certain extent prevents the ceramics from fully replacing metals used as load-bearing prostheses. This paper aims to model the crack initiation and propagation in ceramic fixed partial denture, namely dental bridge, by using two recently developed methods namely continuum-to-discrete element method (CDEM) in ELFEN and extended finite element methods (XFEM) in ABAQUS. Unlike most existing studies that typically required prescriptions of initial cracks, these two new approaches will model crack initiation and propagation automatically. They are applied to a typical prosthodontic example, thereby demonstrating their applicability and effectiveness in biomedical applications.

Abstract:

This article presents a literature review on the resin bond to zirconia ceramic. Modern esthetic dentistry has highly recognized zirconia, among other ceramic materials. Biocompatibility of zirconia, chemical and dimensional stability, excellent mechanical properties, all together could guarantee optimal therapeutical results in complex prosthodontic reconstruction. On the other hand, low thermal degradation, aging of zirconia as well as problematic bonding of zirconia framework to dental luting cements and tooth structures, opened the room for discussion concerning their clinical durability. The well known methods of mechanical and chemical bonding used on glass-ceramics are not applicable for use with zirconia. Therefore, under critical clinical situations, selection of the bonding mechanism should be focused on two important points: high initial bond strength value and long term bond strength between zirconia-resin interface. Also, this paper emphases the use of phosphate monomer luting cements on freshly air-abraded zirconia as the simplest and most effective way for zirconia cementation procedure today.

Abstract:

An accurate interocclusal record is essential for the successful delivery of fixed prosthodontic restorations. There are various materials and techniques used to obtain an interocclusal record in order to facilitate mounting of the dental casts on an articulator. The interocclusal record describes the vertical and horizontal relationship of the maxillary and mandibular teeth. In circumstances where the vertical relationship is not supported through a tripod of widely spaced opposing contacts, the interocclusal record will be needed to restore this vertical support to prevent inaccurate mounting. The clinician should understand when an interocclusal record is required and have an awareness of the different materials and techniques available to record an interocclusal registration.

The global geriatric (elderly) population is growing as a result of increasing life expectancies. One impact of this development is an increase of lifestyle difference. In the scope of health, especially dental health, the patient’s education is important. The decrease in edentulism cases showsed public awareness of the importance in maintaining the health, function and quality of life in the elderly as well as the necessity of preventive attitudes and interventions against disease. Dental services for geriatric patients are affected by the cost of dental services, dental insurance, dental clinics’ access, debt and needs. The current prosthodontic treatment that improve of missing tooth replacements is in demand is an increasing interest in dental implant treatment. Losing tooth has a negative impact on mastication, aesthetic- and oral health-related quality of life. Excessive bone resorption can occur for many reasons, including age, infection, trauma, metabolic disorders and nutritional deficiencies. The resorption of the alveolar bone, especially in medically compromised patients, is caused by focal infections in the mouth and systemic diseases. Periodontitis or other chronic infections resulted from bacterial and host inflammatory cells. The pathology observation can result in a loss of bone support after a long period of extraction procedures is named residual ridge resorption (RRR). The best treatment for RRR is to avoid tooth extraction so that the loss of teeth and their supportive tissues can be prevented. When there is a loss of teeth and RRR, dentures have been made to reduce the occlusal load are necessary. In addition, the importance of periodic control, utilizing vitamins, oral rinse, topical gels or others, and the intake of nutrients greatly affect the good function of dentures and improve the health of the geriatric patient.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was conducting historiographical analysis of organizational bases of formation and development of prosthodontics in the Republic of Tatarstan, as one of the core dental specialties, along with therapeutic and surgical dentistry. Historico-genetic and comparative research methods were used. The reflection of the history of the prosthodontics departments development in Kazan State Dental Institute, Kazan State Medical University, Kazan State Medical University in the literature and archival materials is presented. The main scientific achievements and contribution to the practical activities of the departments’ heads (I.M. Oksman, L.M. Demner, M.Z. Mirgazizov) and staff are demonstrated. The article proves that studying various issues of dental disciplines development is a very promising field of the modern history of science. This is due to the fact that in the modern world, dentistry is undergoing qualitative changes as a science and practice, which makes the study of the historical aspects of its development significantly more relevant. Analysis of the formation and development of prosthodontics in Kazan suggests that unlike some other centers of national dentistry development in Kazan it had a well-organized framework. Thus, organized in 1936 Kazan State Dental Institute and the Department of Prosthodontics have made a significant contribution to the development of higher medical education in Kazan, the development of dental science and practice.

Abstract Aim The purpose of this case report is to present the esthetic and functional rehabilitation of the teeth in a 20-year-old patient with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), facial asymmetry due to functional mandibular shift, and unilateral posterior crossbite. Background AI is a group of hereditary defects of enamel unassociated with any other generalized defects. AI results in poor development or the complete absence of the enamel of the teeth caused by improper differentiation of ameloblasts. Case Description This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a young female patient with AI and facial asymmetry using a combined orthodontic-prosthodontic approach. Initially, the posterior crossbite, mandibular shift, and facial asymmetry were treated orthodontically. Later, metal-ceramic crowns for posterior teeth and allceramic crowns for anterior teeth were fabricated for final restorations. Summary Coordinated orthodontic and prosthodontic treatment, with careful consideration of patient expectations and requests, were critical for a successful outcome and patient satisfaction. Clinical Significance The complexity of the management of patients with AI supports the suggestion that the dental profession should have appropriate methods for the rehabilitation of rare dental disorders.

Abstract:

Introduction: Prosthodontics is a challenging discipline for dental students. This study aims to identify the sources of stress amongst final year undergraduate dental students in prosthodontics at People’s Dental College and Hospital, Nepal. Identifying these potential sources of stress may provide faculties and administrators an opportunity to delineate areas of concern and approach student effectively. Materials and methods: A modified version of the Dental Environment Stress (DES) questionnaire with 22 items was used to assess levels of stress. Results: The major stressors included worry of not completing quotas with a mean score of 3.63 followed by examinations, shortage of allocated clinical and laboratory time, fear of failing a courser the year, overloaded feeling due to huge syllabus, late ending day, responsibility of getting suitable patients, fear of being unable to catch up if behind and patients being late or not showing for their appointments. Amongst these major stressors, the top two stressors were performance pressure related. Conclusions: Although perceived stress in prosthodontics was relatively less than expected, certain areas were highly stressful for majority of the students. There is a need for adopting new strategies by the university, institute, faculties and students themselves for stress management.

Abstract:

When faced with a situation where an impacted tooth is in the way of a planned implant, one approach to avoid an invasive surgical procedure and potential associated complications is to place a transcanine implant. The aim of this report was to add a new case of a transimpacted tooth dental implant placement to the existing international literature and to share our experience of transcanine implantation in the maxilla followed by implant prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with progressive systemic scleroderma. A 55-year-old woman attended our office for oral cavity assessment and treatment planning for complete oral rehabilitation. Digital planning software was used, and implants were positioned according to a surgical template in regions 13, 16, 23, and 26 (Straumann, Basel, Switzerland) with screw-retained metal-ceramic bridges. Placement of the dental implants through impacted canines and the creation of interfaces other than implant-bone interfaces did not lead to postoperative pain or implant failure. Clinically, overall healing was observed, and the implants were successfully used for implant-supported prosthodontic rehabilitation of the jaw. Within the limitations of this case report, transcanine implantation could represent a valuable alternative to standard implant protocols.
