Orthodontic brackets friction changes after clinical use : a systematic review
2019
Background To evaluate the bracket-wire friction force after clinical use. Material and methods A systematic search of several electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, The Cochrane Library, Lilacs and Google Scholar) without limitations regarding publication year or language, was performed. In-vitro studies analyzing the changes in friction force of orthodontic brackets before/after their clinical use were considered. Risk of Bias was assessed with Downs and Black checklist. All methodological features that could interfere in the results were specifically described. Results Seven studies satisfied the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. All 7 studies rep…
Assessment of fractures in endodontically treated teeth restored with and without root canal posts using high-resolution cone beam computed tomography
2020
Abstract Background: Root fractures are a diagnostic challenge for dentists because their signs and symptoms are not present in all cases, and they are difficult to differentiate from endodontic treatment failures, the purpose of the present study was to determine the relationship between the characteristics of tooth fractures and the presence of root canal posts in endodontically treated teeth using high-resolution cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Fifty high-resolution CBCT scans of endodontically treated teeth with a diagnosis of fracture were obtained, of which 30 were from women and 20 were from men. These scans were acquired with three Veraviewepocs 3D units and one 3D Ac…
Prevalence of impacted teeth and supernumerary teeth by radiographic evaluation in three Latin American countries: A cross-sectional study
2021
Background Supernumerary teeth are those that exceed the usual dental formula. There are different classifications depending on their anatomical location, shape and number. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of impacted and supernumerary teeth in a sample of panoramic radiographs from three Latin American countries. Material and Methods A retrospective and cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, in which the radiographic observation and analysis of 2000 panoramic radiographs, provided by different radiological centers in Peru, Colombia and Bolivia were performed. An examiner, specialized in Stomatology and Oral Surgery, carried out the radiographic analy…
Sagittal, rotational and transverse changes with three intraoral distalization force systems : Jones jig, distal jet and first class
2020
Background To compare the maxillary dentoalveolar changes of patients treated with three distalization force systems: Jones Jig, Distal Jet and First Class appliances, using digitized models. Material and Methods The retrospective sample comprised 118 digitized models of 59 patients with Class II malocclusion divided into three groups: Group 1 consisted of 22 patients treated with the Jones Jig appliance; Group 2 consisted of 20 patients treated with the Distal Jet, and Group 3 comprised 17 patients treated with the First Class appliance. Pretreatment and post-distalization plaster models of all patients were digitized and evaluated with OrthoAnalyzerTM software. The pretreatment and post-d…
Primary failure of eruption: occlusal and dentoalveolar characteristics in mixed and permanent dentition. A study with cone beam computed tomography.
2022
The main objective of this study was to describe the dentoalveolar and occlusal characteristics of subjects with primary failure of eruption (PFE) in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and compare them with a control group without the anomaly.This retrospective and comparative study evaluated CBCT images of 80 permanent molars divided into 2 groups of 40 molars each, which had or did not have PFE characteristics. Using CBCT a calibrated orthodontist performed 23 measurements related to the distances of the cusps to the occlusal, palatal and mandibular planes and measured the buccal-palatal and mesiodistal widths of the molar crowns and their root lengths. Independent Student's t or Mann-W…
