Conservative full-mouth resin renewal.

The treatment of this patient involved the coordination of periodontal, orthodontic, restorative, and aesthetic considerations. It was unique because it involved only resin as the primary restorative material, which allowed for conservative preparations and restorations. In the posterior, the use of direct and indirect resins resulted in the removal of little or no healthy tooth structure. In the anterior, the use of direct resin veneers required minimal removal of enamel, while still achieving proper function and aesthetics. Resin restorations in this particular case allowed for an acceptable clinical result and a highly satisfied patient.

Dynamics of dental implants and orthodontics in today's periodontal prosthesis.

Periodontal prosthesis refers to multidisciplinary efforts to stop disease progression, correct deformities created by dental diseases, and establish a therapeutic occlusion to restore the form and function of the masticatory system. These efforts are critical for the long-term prognosis and maintenance of the guarded teeth and the overall prosthesis. This article presents a functionally and esthetically challenging case, which illustrates a multidisciplinary approach--specifically implantology and orthodontics--and how they impact on each other during treatment. The role and importance of dental implants and orthodontics in setting up a case is illustrated in this article.

Achieving aesthetic excellence through an outcome-based restorative treatment rationale.

The conceptual basis of restorative-driven implant dentistry is well established among clinicians. Its implementation includes the development of a prosthetic blue-print that will serve as a guide throughout therapy. While these concepts may be applied to prosthetic dentistry in general, their benefits are most compelling in the treatment of the aesthetic zone. This article demonstrates a systematic multidimensional approach for the establishment and incorporation of definitive aesthetic objectives throughout the diagnostic, adjunctive, and restorative treatment phases.

Orthodontically assisted restorative dentistry.

As treatment expectations of dental patients continue to escalate we, as restorative dentists, must provide an interdisciplinary treatment approach to ensure optimum results for our patients. In recent years the disciplines of periodontics, endodontics and oral surgery have continued to develop closer working relationships with the field of restorative dentistry. Unfortunately, this is not the common relationship that exists with the discipline of orthodontics. Most orthodontic therapy is directed at the treatment of malocclusion and is conducted with limited or no input from the restorative dentist. Orthodontics offers countless ways of assisting the restorative dentist in achieving treatment goals. Several of these orthodontic opportunities to enhance the restorative treatment plan are reviewed.

MGDS log diary case presentation.

This case was presented as a log diary for the 1998 diet of the Diploma of Membership in General Dental Surgery (MGDS) and describes the history, examination, investigation, diagnosis and treatment planning for a 29-year-old male who complained about his unaesthetic anterior post-retained crowns and occasional pain from his upper right canine. Description of the treatment incorporates routine conservation, stabilisation of oral health, anterior space creation using a removable cobalt chromium Dahl appliance and the subsequent removal of four anterior teeth and their immediate replacement with an acrylic resin partial denture. Finally, a porcelain veneer on the upper left central incisor and a cobalt chromium partial denture were provided. Continuing care includes monitoring an early carious lesion and the position of two unerupted wisdom teeth, and regular review of oral hygiene measures.

[Immediate post-extraction implant in infected site. An eight-year clinical and radiographic control].

The use of immediate post-extraction implants presents several advantages in term of reduction of surgical steps and time required to conclude the therapy. Particularly important is the possibility to minimize the bone loss that otherwise would occur in the physiologic healing of the alveolus. Many authors agree that an infected site is one of the main contraindications to use post-extraction implants. In spite of this, favourable results have been reported also in these conditions. In this study, an immediate post-extraction implant has been placed to substitute the maxillary left second premolar, extracted due to vertical root fracture. Suppuration with fistula in the vestibule was present. The residual wide bone defect at the end of the debridement of the surgical socket has made it necessary a regenerative procedure by means of e-PTFE membrane, at the same time of implant insertion. After 9 month-healing the membrane has been removed and the implant exposed to perform the prosthetic procedures. The clinical and radiographic control after 8 years prove that infection in the surgical site has not compromised the final success, even in the long-term observation, suggesting the need to re-evaluate the contraindications conventionally reported.

Guidelines for periodontal prostheses serve esthetic and functional demands: a case report.

Periodontal-prosthesis guidelines have long been defined to specifically address dental reconstructions after moderate to advanced periodontal disease has occurred. More recently, specific dental techniques and materials have shown promise in addressing patients' increasing esthetic demands. However, treatment planning to achieve pleasing results for patients with advanced periodontitis requires a complex, multispecialty approach that is rarely discussed. A case report and literature review illustrate that the original periodontal-prosthesis guidelines not only remain useful today for obtaining esthetic results but also conform to recent understanding of maxillomandibular physiology.
