ShareSilver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) has created immense interest among the dental community in recent times because of its potential to generate remineralization and its non-invasive nature of application in managing dental caries. Therefore, the authors have taken the initiative to review existing literature on SDF critically. The critical overview of the global evidence to date has been put together to provide insights into SDF...... ReadMore -

ShareTooth wear or tooth surface loss is a general term used to denote surface loss of dental hard tissues from causes other than developmental ones, dental caries and trauma [1]. Often tooth wear is always presented with myriads of clinical presentation such as erosion, attrition, abrasion and abfraction...... ReadMore

ShareThis in vitro study aimed to qualitatively evaluate the effect of different remineralizing agents on the enamel pattern, after exposure to an acid solution. Fifteen human sound extracted third molars were collected and randomly allocated into the following five groups: Control Group (CG), without treatment; Negative Group (NG), treated with lactic acid solution; Mousse Group (MG), treated using a mousse of casein phosphopeptide (CPP) and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), associated with 0,33% sodium monofluorophosphate......

ShareReplacing a missing lateral incisor always presents a dentist with various challenges, notably the need to ensure an esthetic result and long-term clinical viability in restoring oral health and functionality. Due to concavities in the premaxilla region the implant apex is often placed with a cant to the palate. This dilemma can be solved with custom abutments which increase the cost of the case. The SMART base allows up to 25 degrees of angle correction which allows for screw retention in these cases (Figure 1). Figure 2 shows a radiograph of a missing lateral incisor and a pre-operative template of a wax-up. An implant is then placed in the jaw and allowed to heal for 6-8 weeks to ensure osseointegration (Figure 3)...... ReadMore

ShareWhile restoring patients with poor oral hygiene, it is mandatory to consider the self-cleansing ability of the prosthesis to reduce the risk of progression of the disease. The use of telescopic retainers continues to allow treatment options for prostheses that facilitate access for cleaning by the patient and/or dentist and retain questionable teeth longer. The concept of removable telescopic partial denture resulted from clinical experiments with the tooth supported complete denture [1]. It is also considered as a removable periodontal prosthesis, as it provides cross arch splinting of the periodontally compromised teeth and helps in equally distributing the forces along the long axis of the abutment [2-6]. In addition, a telescopic prost..... ReadMore

ShareWhen treatment planning for implant treatment is imperative that we not only assess the dental condition that requires treatment, but also the physics that will be involved in the case. Whether this is a single tooth or a full arch, the success long term relies heavily on making sure the forces that the implant and the peri-implant tissues are controlled. One major key to success is placing the implant in the best prosthetically guided position- never compromise this key point, it is critical that esthetic concerns do not outweigh factors used to promote successful osseointegration [1]. Implants are not teeth and should never be treated the same way (Figure 1). Without the advantages afforded by a pdl, the “ankylosed” implant cannot accommodate forces the same way as natural t.....

ShareObjective: To characterize the face and the malocclusion type of children treated at a dental school. Materials and Methods: Retrospective analysis of clinical data with orofacial measurements of 103 children of 6 to 9 years of age with mixed dentition, who received the first care between 2016 and 2017. The data were obtained from the anthropometric measurements, using a caliper and digital technology. This work is linked to an extension project. The research project was approved by the Ethics Committee on Human Research of the Federal University of Pernambuco, Recife, northeast of Brazil, under protocol number 77741417.0.0000.5208. Statistical treatment was performed, with a margin of error of 5%. Results: Most records occurred in male children (57.3%), mean age 7±0.9 years and brachyfacial type (40.8%)..... ReadMore

ShareBackground: Total or partial edentulism is a good indicator of the oral health of a population. The present study was conducted to assess socio-demographic distribution of patients with fixed prostheses.Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted on 280 patients of fixed prostheses. Five socioeconomic groups: professionals and managerial officers and retirees of this type, skilled Workers, Semi-skilled Workers, Unskilled workers and dependents were assessed.Results: Age group 20-30 years had 20, 30-40 years had 59, 40-50 years had 74 and 50-60 years had 127 patients. 110 patients were dependent, 67 were unskilled, 46 were semi-skilled, 34 were professional and 23 were skilled workers. The difference was significant (P<0.05). Fixed prostheses were seen in both anterior and posterior teeth in 112 cases, anterior in 110 cases and ..... ReadMore

ShareThe effects of periodontal disease observed in adults have their inception earlier in life and are often associated with systemic metabolic patterns, thus the diagnosis is significant. Moreover, surgical corrections are increasingly sought for since the parents are more concerned about aesthetics than ever before. This paper reviews the more common oral conditions involving periodontal health in children and adolescents and discusses the roles of paediatric dentistry and periodontology in the management of these conditions with the goal of children entering adulthood with healthy dentitions......

ShareA descriptive retrospective study was carried out and evaluated the pattern of mandibular fractures in western region of Nepal at Universal College of Medical Sciences, Bhairahawa, Rupandehi. Among 498 cases of maxillofacial trauma registered between March 2014 to December 2018; 199 cases of mandibular fractures who were admitted and undergone conservative or surgical treatment were enrolled in the study. Parameters recorded were personal details of patients including age, sex, day and month of fracture, mode of trauma, alcohol abuse, site of mandibular fracture, treatment done, duration of hospital stay, and need for intensive care unit (ICU) stay. The selected group include 157 males (78.9%) and 42 females (21.1%). The mean age of patient was 30.34 ±13.98 years (age range, 3-77 years). The mode of trauma was from ro..... ReadMore

ShareOral cancers are considered as the 6th most common predominant cancers in males. Some of the etiological components include viruses, alcohol and tobacco. Most common viruses include Hepatitis C virus, Epstein-Barr virus, Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and human papilloma virus (HPV). No doubt, the role of viruses is inevitable in progression and initiation of OSCC (Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma). Rapid detection of these viruses can result in prevention and early treatment so that disease will not be progressed further...... ReadMore
