Loss of oral function may be due to tooth loss, which can affect the quality of life of an individual. The aim of our study was to evaluate the quality of life in toothless adults in Ndé division. A total of 1054 edentulous subjects (partial, mixed, total) completed the OHIP-14 questionnaire, used for assessing the quality of life in edentulous patients. Males (63%), were more dominant and the ages of the patients ranged between 18 to 120 years old. Caries (71.6%), were the leading cause of tooth loss followed by poor oral hygiene (63.15%) and the consequence being the loss of aesthetics at 56.6%. -

A4 Centric Relation (CR) Refers to the RELATIONSHIP of the MANDIBLE TO THE SKULL as it rotates around the ‘hinge-axis” before any translatory movement of the condyles from their “upper-most and mid-most position”.

INLAY / ONLAY Inlays and Onlays Are Dental Restorations That Cover Back Teeth
INLAY / ONLAY Inlays and onlays are dental restorations that cover back teeth. The difference between an inlay and an onlay is that an inlay covers a small part of the biting surface of a back tooth while an onlay extends over the biting surface and onto other parts of the tooth. Both of these restorations are cemented into place and cannot be taken off. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What materias are in an Inlay/Onlay? Inlays are made of three types of materials: • Porcelain/Ceramic - most like a natural tooth in color • Gold Alloy – more resistant to chipping than porcelain. • Composite/Hybrid –like natural tooth in color 2. What are the benefits of having an Inlay/Onlay? Inlays and Onlays restore a tooth to its natural size and shape. • They restore the strength and function of a tooth and esthetics are enhanced when using tooth colored materials. • An Inlay/Onlay presents less risk of fracture and breakage of the tooth than a filling • Future risk for a root canal may be less than with a full coverage crown Gold Inlays 3. What are the risks of having an Inlay/Onlay? • Preparation for an Inlay/Onlay permanently alters the tooth underneath the restoration. • Preparing for and placing an Inlay/Onlay can irritate the tooth and cause “post-operative” sensitivity which may last up to 3 months. • Crowns, Inlays and Onlays may need root canal treatment about 5% of the time during the lifetime of the tooth. • If the cement seal at the edge of the Inlay/Onlay is lost, decay may form at the junction of the restoration and tooth. -
