Abstract Digital surgical planning for immediately loaded dental implants can be a predictable and accurate procedure, with the interim prosthesis also designed digitally. If the planning and execution are meticulous,…
Abstract The functionality of a new overdenture attachment (LOCATOR R-Tx) was described for different clinical situations: a conventional mandibular implant overdenture (IOD) retained by 2 implants, a straightforward chairside maintenance…
Abstract The recent evolution of digital technologies in dentistry has enabled virtual 3D diagnostic analysis of a dentition before treatment, allowing for virtual, minimally invasive treatment planning. In this report, an…
Abstract The advancements in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) serve to facilitate the management of clinical challenges in restorative dentistry. This technique article describes the fabrication of implant-supported restorations…
Abstract Statement of problem Dentists must regularly determine the best adhesive cementation protocol for glass-ceramic restorations on posterior teeth. The authors are aware of few in vivo follow-up studies and no…
Abstract A microlocking implant prosthetic system has recently been developed to address the limitations of conventional screw- and cement-retained implant-supported fixed dental prostheses. This prosthesis system consists of a precision-machined…
Abstract A digital process for designing and manufacturing a cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) surgical template for static computer-aided implant surgery (s-CAIS) is described. The use of Co-Cr provides the advantage of a…
Abstract Statement of problem Despite an overall high survival rate for dental implants, the effectiveness of implant retreatment remains unclear. Purpose The purpose of this systematic review was to examine…
Abstract Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) shows a high rate of recurrence, so aggressive treatment has been recommended. However, if the patient is a child and still has unerupted permanent teeth in…
Abstract Purpose Natural products can have an important role in caries control through their inherent biological abilities. Aim The aim of the study was to compare thel remineralizing potential of…
Abstract We report a case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) in the mandibular molar region. A Japanese boy aged 6 years 8 months visited the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of Osaka University…
Abstract Background Dental caries is a widespread infectious disease caused by environmental and genetic factors. Thus far, studies have identified several environmental factors influencing dental caries; however, little remains known…
1 Introduction A dentigerous cyst is the second most common form of odontogenic cyst, after radicular cysts. The cyst is more common in the mandible than in the maxilla, and…
Abstract Objective The objective of the present in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of endodontic irrigation systems on the removal of smear layer and ion diffusion of calcium…
Abstract This report presents a rare case of birooted bilateral maxillary primary canines. A Japanese girl aged 8 years 10 months was referred to the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of Osaka…
Abstract In this paper, we report two rare cases of foreign body oral injuries caused by forks inserted tightly into both sides of the lingual interdental spaces between the mandibular…
Abstract Purpose To evaluate root dentin pH changes using different calcium hydroxide medications in primary and permanent molar root canals. Methods Sixty primary and 60 permanent molar roots were prepared…
1 Introduction Dentigerous cyst encloses the crown of the unerupted tooth and is the most common odontogenic cyst . Clinical manifestations of this cyst include swelling, teeth displacement and delayed…
Abstract Oral manifestations may be the first sign of Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. Due to diversity in the clinical findings of LCH, this disease has been a diagnostic dilemma to the…
Abstract It is common that pediatric maxillofacial fractures develop after a traumatism. The lower calcification of pediatric bones allows them to be flexed in response to external forces, producing greenstick…
