Clinical application of visible light-cured fluoride-releasing sealant to non-etched enamel surface of partially erupted permanent molars.

A visible light-cured fluoride-releasing sealant was applied to non-etched enamel surfaces of partially erupted permanent molars. A scanning electron microscope was used to find an effective procedure to clean pits and fissures of the occlusal surfaces prior to application of the sealant. This procedure proved clinically acceptable and effective for prevention of dental caries immediately after eruption of permanent molars.

Odontomas--report of 3 cases.

Three clinical cases of odontoma were detected in 2 children and 1 adolescent. The tumors were surgically removed. Clinical suspicion was based on facial deformity in one of the cases and on the absence of permanent tooth eruption in the other two. Radiographic evidence of odontoma was confirmed through histological study.

[Guidance of tooth eruption in the support areas using proximal grinding].

This article brings a description of a procedure for interproximal slicing. When persistence of the second deciduous molar occurs, the premolar is likely to be blocked in his eruption, while the canine is guided out of the dental arch; in these conditions it might be necessary to perform a slicing mesially of the second deciduous molar. Beforehand one should check for the posterior tooth-size and eruption pattern or sequence of each quadrant.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: a case report.

A 13-year-old male patient classified as Type VIII, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, in which the typical periodontal findings are not seen, is presented. The patient has many partially erupted deciduous teeth and partially erupted mandibular permanent incisors. It is suggested that Type VIII has two subdivisions. In subdivision A there is periodontal involvement with a normal eruption pattern; subdivision B has no periodontal involvement, but the teeth do not erupt.

Cone beam volume tomography: an imaging option for diagnosis of complex mandibular third molar anatomical relationships.

Complex impacted third molars present potential treatment complications and possible patient morbidity. Objectives of diagnostic imaging are to facilitate diagnosis, decision making, and enhance treatment outcomes. As cases become more complex, advanced multiplane imaging methods allowing for a 3-D view are more likely to meet these objectives than traditional 2-D radiography. Until recently, advanced imaging options were somewhat limited to standard film tomography or medical CT, but development of cone beam volume tomography (CBVT) multiplane 3-D imaging systems specifically for dental use now provides an alternative imaging option. Two cases were utilized to compare the role of CBVT to these other imaging options and to illustrate how multiplane visualization can assist the pretreatment evaluation and decision-making process for complex impacted mandibular third molar cases.

Short tooth syndrome: diagnosis, etiology, and treatment management.

The periodontal-restorative team is uniquely positioned to provide the esthetic procedures that today's sophisticated patient population has come to expect. Not only is health and function of great desire but also esthetics is in demand. Armed with periodontal-plastic procedures and technically advanced restorative materials, the periodontal-restorative team can provide these patient needs. The challenge becomes making the correct diagnosis and selecting the appropriate treatment regimen.

Transmigration of mandibular permanent canine in a Nigerian patient: presentation and management.

A rare dental anomaly--transmigration is presented in a 12-year-old female Nigerian who was referred for orthodontic assessment. A right mandibular canine was found completely located in the left side of the body of the mandible having moved ectopically and progressively from its normal developmental site through the symphysis of the mandible. The importance of the radiological diagnosis with the use of panoramic radiograph is highlighted and the management briefly discussed.

Immunoassay evidence for a role of nerve growth factor in development of dental innervation.

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is known to have an essential role in prenatal development of spinal and trigeminal primary sensory neurons serving nociceptive functions. Investigation of a possible function of NGF in development of intradental innervation has recently begun with the demonstration by others of NGF mRNA and NGF receptor in the pulp. The pulp is of special interest in this respect because of its late development and unusual properties of its innervation. In the present study, use of a sensitive ELISA for NGF has made it possible to detect and measure NGF antigen in pulps of developing rat molars. Pulps contained relatively high concentrations of NGF before and during the time of innervation development.
