Bleaching in vital teeth : combined treatment vs in-office treatment
Background The aim of this study was to verify that there will be greater whitening in teeth treated with combined bleaching than in those that have been applied a clinical one and to evaluate the efficiency of the clinical treatment, those cases in which it is not able, or it is not wanted, to carry out the home phase. Material and Methods They were used 66 extracted anterior human teeth, which were divided into two study groups. On the one hand, the clinical group (ClG) consisted of 33 teeth, which were treated with a clinical guideline using 37.5% hydrogen peroxide in a single session of 4 applications of 8 minutes. On the other hand, the combinate group (CoG) consisted of 33 teeth, whic…
Comparative Analysis of Peri-Implant Bone Loss in Extra-Short, Short, and Conventional Implants. A 3-Year Retrospective Study
Objective: To evaluate the influence of implant length on marginal bone loss, comparing implants of 4 mm, 6 mm, and >
Effect of two whitening agents on the color of composite dental restorations
Background To evaluate color changes to composite resins used to restore extracted teeth compared with composite discs after whitening with two agents: hydrogen peroxide (HP) and carbamide peroxide (CP). Material and methods Ten human molars with class V vestibular and palatine cavity preparation obturated with Vita hybrid nanocomposite were hemisected to obtain 20 specimens assigned randomly to two groups: O1 and O2. Twenty composite discs were divided into two groups: D1 and D2. The groups O1 and D1 were treated with 16% CP, while groups =2 and D2 were treated with 37.5 % HP. Chromaticity coordinates L*, a* and b* were registered using a spectrophotometer. Results Statistically significan…
Prospective study of monolithic zirconia crowns: clinical behavior and survival rate at a 5-year follow-up
Purpose To evaluate the clinical behavior and survival of full coverage monolithic zirconia crowns on posterior teeth over a 5-year follow-up. Methods Fifty patients were recruited and underwent restoration with a Lava Plus monolithic zirconia crown (Lava™ Frame Zirconia, 3M Espe, Germany) on premolars or molars. Patients were monitored over a 5-year follow-up (2014-19), recording any biological and/or mechanical complications; these data were used to estimate the crowns' success rate. Periodontal clinical parameters were recorded (pocket probing depth (PPD), plaque index (PLI), bleeding on probing (BOP), and gingival recession (GR)). Wear to the zirconia crowns and antagonist teeth were al…
What can we do with a dental avulsion? A multidisciplinary Clinical Protocol
Purpose The aim of this case report was to explain a multidisciplinary and conservative approach carrying out the replantation of an avulsed closed apex central incisor stored in dry conditions for a 16-hour period from the moment of trauma. Case report This report describes a case of a 28 year-old male who suffered contusion of the upper lip, avulsion of right upper central incisor, enamel cracks after trauma of left upper central incisor and upper left lateral incisor crown fracture due to an accident. Avulsed tooth was dry stored and it was replanted 16h after the trauma. The root was disinfected and the necrotic periodontal tissue removed, the endodontic treatment was done before replan…
Reproducibilidad en la medición del color «in vitro» e «in vivo» mediante colorímetros específicos para uso dental
Introduccion: La medicion del color dental de la forma mas objetiva y reproducible posible, es uno de los problemas en Odontologia. La reciente aparicion de colorimetros especialmente concebidos para la toma del color dental pueden ser de ayuda para este fin. Objetivo: Evaluar la fiabilidad en la reproducion de las mediciones del color de tres colorimetros, disenados para la toma del color dental. Material y metodo: Se midio el color tres veces sucesivas a cada uno los doce dientes anteriores de diez pacientes y se tomo cinco veces el color de cada uno de los dieciseis dientes de tres guias Vitapan Classical. Resultados: La reproducibilidad para la medicion de las guias vario entre 72, 25 y…
