  • Two-Year Clinical Evaluation of Nonvital Tooth Whitening and Resin Composite Restorations
    Two-Year Clinical Evaluation of Nonvital Tooth Whitening and Resin Composite Restorations SIMONE DELIPERI, DDS* DAVID N. BARDWELL, DDS, MS† ABSTRACT Background: Adhesive systems, resin composites, and light curing systems underwent continuous improvement in the past decade. The number of patients asking for ultraconservative treatments is increasing; clinicians are starting to reevaluate the dogma of traditional restorative dentistry and look for alternative methods to build up severely destroyed teeth. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of nonvital tooth whitening and the clinical performance of direct composite restorations used to reconstruct extensive restora- tions on endodontically bleached teeth. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one patients 18 years or older were included in this clinical trial, and 26 endodontically treated and bleached maxillary and mandibular teeth were restored using a microhybrid resin composite. Patients with severe internal (tetracycline stains) and external dis- coloration (fluorosis), smokers, and pregnant and nursing women were excluded from the study. Only patients with A3 or darker shades were included. Teeth having endodontic access opening only to be restored were excluded; conversely, teeth having a combination of endodontic access and Class III/IV cavities were included in the study. A Vita shade guide (Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad Säckingen, Germany) arranged by value order was used to record the shade for each patient. Temporary or existing restorations were removed, along with a 1 mm gutta-percha below the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), and a resin-modified glass ionomer barrier was placed at the CEJ. Bleaching treatment was performed using a combination of in-office (OpalescenceXtra, Ultradent Products, South Jordan, UT, USA) and at-home (Opalescence 10% PF, Ultradent Prod- ucts) applications.

    General& Restorative Dentistry Fillings 1. Amalgam restorations ( for small, medium large restorations) 2. Direct composite restorations (for small – medium restorations) 3. Glass ionomer restorations (for small restorations) 4. CEREC all ceramic restorations ( for medium – large restorations) Amalgam restorations: Every dental material used to rebuild teeth has advantages and disadvantages. Dental amalgam or silver fillings have been around for over 150 years. Amalgam is composed of silver, tin, copper, mercury and zinc. Amalgam fillings are relatively inexpensive, durable and time-tested. Amalgam fillings are considered un-aesthetic because they blacken over time and can give teeth a grey appearance, and they do not strengthen the tooth. Some people worry about the potential for mercury in dental amalgam to leak out and cause a wide variety of ailments. At this stage such allegations are unsubstantiated in the wider community and the NHMRC still considers amalgam restorations as a safe material to use in the adult patient. Composite restorations: Composite fillings are composed of a tooth-coloured plastic mixture filled with glass (silicon dioxide). Introduced in the 1960s, dental composites were confined to the front teeth because they were not strong enough to withstand the pressure and wear generated by the back teeth. Since then, composites have been significantly improved and can be successfully placed in the back teeth as well. Composite fillings are the material of choice for repairing the front teeth. Aesthetics are the main advantage, since dentists can blend shades to create a colour nearly identical to that of the actual tooth. Composites bond to the tooth to support the remaining tooth structure, which helps to prevent breakage and insulate the tooth from excessive temperature changes.

  • Fusobacteria Bacteremia Post Full Mouth Disinfection Therapy: a Case Report
    IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) e-ISSN: 2279-0853, p-ISSN: 2279-0861.Volume 14, Issue 7 Ver. VI (July. 2015), PP 77-81 www.iosrjournals.org Fusobacteria Bacteremia Post Full Mouth Disinfection Therapy: A Case Report Parth, Purwar1, Vaibhav Sheel1, Manisha Dixit1, Jaya Dixit1 1 Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Dental Sciences, King George’s Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. Abstract: Oral bacteria under certain circumstances can enter the systemic circulation and can lead to adverse systemic effects. Fusobacteria species are numerically dominant species in dental plaque biofilms and are also associated with negative systemic outcomes. In the present case report, full mouth disinfection (FMD) was performed in a systemically healthy chronic periodontitis patient and the incidence of fusobateria species bacteremia in peripheral blood was evaluated before, during and after FMD. The results showed a significant increase in fusobacterium sp. bacteremia post FMD and the levels remained higher even after 30 minutes. In the light of the results it can be proposed that single visit FMD may result in transient bacteraemia. Keywords: Chronic Periodontitis, Non surgical periodontal therapy, Fusobacterium species, Full mouth disinfection Therapy I. Introduction After scaling and root planing (SRP), bacteremia has been analyzed predominately in aerobic and gram-positive bacteria. Fusobaterium is a potential periopathogen which upon migration to extra-oral sites may provide a significant and persistent gram negative challenge to the host and may enhance the risk of adverse cardiovascular and pregnancy complications [1].To the authors knowledge this is a seminal case report which gauges the occurrence and magnitude of fusobactrium sp.

  • The Management of Developmentally Absent Maxillary Lateral Incisors–A
    RESEARCH IN BRIEF • Orthodontists work in two distinct practice organisations: one with limited access to a restorative opinion and one with ready access to restorative opinions. • The type of practice environment influences the type of treatment offered. • Orthodontists working with limited or no access to restorative dentists evaluate the space for implants from the inter-crown distance. • Orthodontists who work regularly with restorative colleagues evaluate the distance between the roots of adjacent teeth from an intra-oral radiograph. • Orthodontists who work in isolation are recommended to evaluate the space for implants and hence the need for orthodontics from intra-oral radiographs. • There is a need to promote clearer guidelines and protocols for practitioners involved in the management of hypodontia.
