  • Guide for Dental Fees for General Dentists January 2020
    Guide for Dental Fees for General Dentists January 2020 Copyright © 2019 by the Alberta Dental Association and College ALBERTA DENTAL ASSOCIATION AND COLLEGE Preamble The fees listed herein are published to serve merely as a guide. No dentist receiving this list is under any obligation to accept the fees itemized. Any dentist who does not use all or any of these fees will in no way suffer in their relations with the Alberta Dental Association and College or any other body, group or committee affiliated with or under the control of the Alberta Dental Association and College. A genuine suggested fee guide is one which is issued merely for professional information purposes without raising any intention or expectation whatsoever that the membership will adopt the guide for their practices. Dentists have the right and freedom to use any dental codes that are included in the Alberta Uniform System of Coding and List of Services. Dentists may use these fees to assist them in determining their own professional fees. A suggested protocol to follow in order to eliminate the possibility of patient misunderstandings regarding the fees for dental treatment is: a. Perform a thorough oral examination for the patient. b. Explain, carefully, the particular problems encountered in this patient's mouth. Describe your treatment plan and prognosis, in a manner, which the patient can fully understand. Assure yourself that the patient has understood the presentation. c. Present your fee for treatment, before the commencement of treatment. d. Arrange financial commitments in such a manner that the patient understands their obligation. e.

  • ABSTRACTS BACHMAYER DI, Ross RB, Munro IR. Maxillary Growth
    ABSTRACTS BACHMAYER DI, Ross RB, Munro IR. Maxillary growth following Lefort III advancement surgery in Crouzon, Apert, and Pfeiffer syndromes. Am J Orthod Dentofac Orthop 1987; 90:420-430. The authors studied facial growth following Le Fort III osteotomies in 19 children with Crouzon (7), Apert (10), and Pfeiffer (2) syndromes. The group containing 12 males and 7 females with a mean age of 7.1 years at surgery were followed an average of 5.3 years after the surgeries. The authors compared the operated syn- drome group with a group of 52 unoperated syndrome patients: Crouzon (26); Apert (23), and Pfeiffer (3). They also compared the operated group with normative data from the University of Michigan School Growth Study. The authors found that the horizontal growth of the maxilla of the operated syndrome group was negligible (less than 0.1 mm/year) and different from the unoperated syndrome group (0.7 mm/year) and the normal group (1.3 mm/year). The authors found that vertical growth of the maxilla was similar in all three groups. They concluded that the surgery was justifiable, even though a subsequent maxillary advancement is required after growth is completed. (Staley) Reprints: Dr. R.

  • Laser Soft Tissue Molding Technique 61 CASE REPORT Available At
    CASE REPORT available at www.jstage.jst.go.jp/browse/islsm Soft tissue molding technique in cleft lip and palate patient using laser surgery in combination with orthodontic appliance: A case report Pornpat Theerasopon 1, Tasanee Wangsrimongkol 2 and Sajee Sattayut 3 1: Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, University of Phayao, Phayao, Thailand and Lasers in Dentistry Research Group, Khon Kaen University 2: Department of Orthodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Khon Kaen University 3: Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen, Thailand and Lasers in Dentistry Research Group, Khon Kaen University Background: Although surgical treatment protocols for cleft lip and palate patients have been established, many patients still have some soft tissue defects after complete healing from surgical interventions. These are excess soft tissue, high attached fraena and firmed tethering scares. These soft tissue defects resulted shallowing of vestibule, restricted tooth movement, compromised peri- odontal health and trended to limit the maxillary growth. The aim of this case report was to pre- sent a method of correcting soft tissue defects after conventional surgery in cleft lip and palate patient by using combined laser surgery and orthodontic appliance. Case report: A bilateral cleft lip and palate patient with a clinical problem of shallow upper ante- rior vestibule after alveolar bone graft received a vestibular extension by using CO2 laser with abla- tion and vaporization techniques at 4 W and continuous wave. A customized orthodontic appli- ance, called a buccal shield, was placed immediately after surgery and retained for 1 month to 3 months until complete soft tissue healing.
