Dental Implantation, Endosseous↗
Nonendodontic coronal resection of fused and geminated vital teeth. A new technique.
A new technique has been devised to resect vital malformed large dental crowns stemming from developmental fusion and gemination. In two cases from separate patients, resection of the fused crown with sharp osteotomes resulted in exposed pulp chambers that were subsequently allowed to heal. Root canal treatment was not necessary. Case follow-up at 12 and 4 years after orthodontics showed pulp vitality. A review of the literature as well as an explanation for healing modality were included.

Living with needlestick injuries.
Exposure to contaminated sharp objects is one of the inherent hazards of working in a clinical setting. Today, primarily due to concerns about possible HIV infection, a "terror-factor" strikes mortal fear, whether imagined or real, in the heart of individuals who suffer a subcutaneous sharp object injury. The psychological effects of sustaining a sharp object injury and the actual danger of contracting a potentially lethal viral infection following such an occurrence are discussed. Methods of avoiding a sharp object injury and possible treatment options are also considered.
