Do You Have Blinders On?

A recent trip to Japan reminded me of a favorite quote: “He who knows England only, knows England not at all”. Without a basis of comparison, we know less than we may think. I found Japan By James E. Ference, to be unusually clean. Men and women, as far as I could tell, walked seemingly DMD, MBA, AFAAID, DABOI/ID without concern even in poorly lit areas at night. Countrywide, including delays from Editor, AAID News mechanical and weather issues, the Shinkansen or bullet trains average delays were only 54 seconds. And most startling, on a subway back to the airport, we encoun- tered a group of three little girls about 5 years old, going home from school in their uniforms unaccompanied by adults. If you worry about personal safety and orderli- ness in your own country, you may enjoy Japan. Returning home, you may be at least a tad less satisfied knowing that people in some places elsewhere do at least some things better. In medicine and dentistry, compar- isons to how others approach various treatments offer great opportunities Without a basis of comparison, for improvement. The upcoming 2017 AAID Annual Education Conference in San Diego, October 11 – 14, 2017 we know less than we may think. offers one way to discover how implant dentistry is practiced differ- ently around the world. The Leonard Linkow Global Symposium is a full-day of presentations from Do YOU have ideas, strategies, implant from a dozen different countries. They will showcase what is going comments, or observations that on in their country in the world of implantology. AAID president Dr. Shankar Iyer designed this symposium specifically to help attendees get past the blinders we all you want to share with your can experience if we only know what we are doing locally. Maybe something much colleagues? Send them to me better is around the corner; perhaps a problem you experience is solvable by doing at [email protected]. something differently. The point is not to simply encourage you to attend the AAID Annual Conference, although I personally believe it is the most valuable implant dentistry education available. Rather, it is to encourage you to think beyond the borders of your practice, your community, your background, and your previous experiences. Discover different approaches to treatment challenges. You are never too old or experienced to con- sider different treatment options. The internet has opened up a wealth of knowledge see Editor’s Notebook p. 58

Hahn™ Tapered Implant Guided System As patient demand for dental implant treatment continues to grow, more clinicians are being pre- sented with the opportunity to perform implant services in their own practice. The Hahn™ Tapered Implant Guided Surgery System enables clinicians of all experience levels to deliver premium Hahn™ Tapered Implants with the utmost precision and confidence. The instrumentation kit allows the clinician to easily organize, transport, and sterilize the surgical tools. Color-coded bands correspond to implant diameter, matching the color of the implant carrier. Tissue punches match the diameter of the pre- scribed implant. Drills are diameter-specific and feature a flange stop for depth control. For added safety, each shaping drill is implant-specific to precisely determine both diameter and depth of the osteotomy. Designed for ease of use, this system works in conjunction with digital treatment planning and case-specific surgical guides, both of which are available through Glidewell Laboratories. Treatment is accurate, straightforward, and efficient, of reas- surance to patient and doctor alike. news 800.887.3580 hahnimplant.com

U.S. Court of Appeals Upholds AAID’s Texas Victory

The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued its opinion on June 19, 2017. It affirmed the lower By Frank Recker, DDS, JD court decision in favor of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry’s position that the Texas rule on dental specialties is unconstitutional. As a result, the State of Texas, as well as Louisiana and Mississippi (part of the Fifth Circuit), are enjoined from enforcing provisions that prohibit dentists from advertising as specialists in areas not recognized by the American Dental Association (ADA). regulation Section 108.54 of the Texas The Federal District Court in Texas Administrative Code that restricted spe- cialties in Texas to only those recog- nized by the American Dental Association was unconstitutional.

Editor’s Note: Because of busy schedules, you may not have time to read the dozen or so articles in each issue of the Journal of Oral Implantology. In this section of AAID News, we selected a few articles that have broad applicability to the daily prac- tice, and provide a brief summary of key points so you can decide if you wish to read the complete article. The following articles are from Volume 43, Issue 3 (June 2017).

EDITORIAL The Great Occlusion Fiasco “What did you learn about occlusion in your dental school?” These are a few of the compiled statements that Dr. Michael Melkers, Editor of American Equilibration Society's (AES) publication received in reply to that question, verifying that “occlusion confu- Gene McCoy sion” is truly a global problem: • Occlusion means confusion and it is hard to understand. • There are so many theories with no explanation. • The majority of dentists prefer to stay away from occlusion or temporomandibular disorders diagnostics. • I feel the UK suffers from a lack of basic training in occlusion. • After graduation, most dentists do not worry about occlusion, as it was not emphasized in school. Dr. Gene McCoy opines that occlusion is a puzzle that has to be solved if we are to understand its role in dental practice and its relationship, if any, in the etiology of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Gene McCoy, The Great Occlusion Fiasco, Journal of Oral Implantology. 2017;43(3):167-168.

RESEARCH Fracture Strength of Standard and Small Diameter Prosthetic Abutments for Full-Arch Implant-Supported Restorations This study tested the fracture strength of prosthetic abutments with different sizes and combinations to support a 5-implant milled framework with distal extension. Prosthetic abutments with different dimensions (4.8-mm diameter miniconical abutment and 3.5-mm diameter microconical abutment) were screwed to five threaded implants. All prosthetic abutments and combinations that were tested provide ade- quate fracture strength for clinical use. However, the combination of standard and small diameter abutments leads to lower fracture strength compared with when only standard sized prosthetic abutments were used, irrespective of the abutment diameter (4.8- or 3.5-mm).

22 AAIDNEWS SUMMER 2017 CLINICAL Comparison of Bovine Bone-Autogenic Bone Mixture Versus Platelet-Rich Fibrin for Grafting: Histologic and Histomorphologic Study Numerous grafting materials have been used to augment the maxillary sinus floor for long-term stability and success for implant-supported prosthesis. To enhance bone formation, adjunctive blood-borne growth factor sources have gained popu- larity during the recent years. The present study compared the use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and bovine-autogenous bone mix- ture for maxillary sinus floor elevation. A split-face model was used to apply two different filling materials for maxillary sinus floor elevation in 22 healthy adult sheep. The authors concluded that bovine bone and autogenous bone mixture is superior to PRF as a grafting material in sinus- lifting procedures.

CASE REPORTS Transnasal Endoscopy Removal of Dislodged Dental Implant: A Case Report Displacement of dental implants into the maxil- lary sinus is a rare complication. This article presents a case of displaced dental implant into maxillary sinus. Retrieval of the dental implant from left maxillary sinus was performed via endoscopic sinus surgery. This case high- lighted a delayed referral of a 53-year-old male by a general dental practitioner for manage- ment of a dislodged dental implant into the left maxillary antrum. The implant was dislodged during placement of a healing abutment four months after implant insertion to replace missing 25. Cone beam computerized tomog- raphy revealed the displaced implant was located at the ostium of the left nose. A sudden change in sinonasal pressure when Figure 1: Dental showing the displaced implant in the left the patient took a deep breath during the pro- maxillary sinus. cedure may have created a negative pressure and suction effect causing the implant to be dislodged and embedded at the ostium. In view of its position, a referral to an otorhinolaryngologist was made for endoscopic removal of the displaced implant. This case also highlighted the need for interdisciplinary cooperation in the management of such a complication for the best interest of the patients.

These include persistent anesthesia and paresthesias. CNS reactions • In clinical trials, the most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥10%) are characterized by excitation and/or depression following EXPAREL administration were nausea, constipation, and vomiting • Cardiovascular System Reactions: Toxic blood concentrations depress • EXPAREL is not recommended to be used in the following patient population: cardiac conductivity and excitability which may lead to dysrhythmias patients <18 years old and/or pregnant patients sometimes leading to death • Because amide-type local anesthetics, such as bupivacaine, are metabolized • Allergic Reactions: Allergic-type reactions (eg, anaphylaxis and by the liver, EXPAREL should be used cautiously in patients with hepatic angioedema) are rare and may occur as a result of hypersensitivity disease. Patients with severe hepatic disease, because of their inability to to the local anesthetic or to other formulation ingredients metabolize local anesthetics normally, are at a greater risk of developing toxic plasma concentrations • Chondrolysis: There have been reports of chondrolysis (mostly in the shoulder joint) following intra-articular infusion of local anesthetics, Warnings and Precautions Specifi c to EXPAREL which is an unapproved use • EXPAREL is not recommended for the following types or routes References: 1.
