    Surgical repositioning of a traumatically intruded permanent incisor in a patient with rheumatic fever: case report

    DENTAL TRAUMATOLOGY, Issue 1 2009

    However, it is one of the most severe types of dentoalveolar trauma. By definition, intrusive luxation consists of the axial displacement of the tooth into the alveolar bone, accompanied by comminution or fracture of the alveolar bone. Here we report the treatment management of a traumatically intruded immature permanent central incisor by surgical repositioning undertaken in a 10-year-old child with rheumatic fever 10 days after sustaining a severe dentoalveolar trauma. The intraoral examination showed the complete intrusion of the permanent maxillary right central incisor and the radiographic examination revealed incomplete root formation. Prophylactic antibiotic therapy was prescribed and the intruded tooth was surgically repositioned and endodontically treated thereafter. The postoperative course was uneventful, with both clinically and radiographically sound conditions of the repositioned tooth up to 3 years and 2 months of follow-up. These outcomes suggest that surgical repositioning combined with proper antibiotic prophylaxis and adequate root canal therapy may be an effective treatment option in cases of severe intrusive luxations of permanent teeth with systemic involvement.

    A finite element analysis of ferrule design on restoration resistance and distribution of stress within a root

    Abstract Aim, To analyse the effect of ferrule height upon the mechanical resistance and stress distribution within a root to explain variations in the pattern of root fracture. Methodology, An extracted, intact, caries free, maxillary right central incisor was scanned by laser and then reconstructed on a computer to produce a model of the tooth and associated periodontal ligament. A simulated post/core/crown restoration was constructed on conventional tooth preparations with various ferrules. The crown was loaded with a simulated 500 N force and the simulated displacement of components and the tensile and compressive stress within the tooth structure were recorded. Results, Without a ferrule preparation, the simulated crown tilted to the labial and rotated distally. With increasing ferrule height the displacement and rotation of the crown reduced in conventional and crown-lengthening models with maximum reduction occurring when the ferrule height reached 1.5 mm. In ferrule models, higher levels of tensile stress developed in internal (by a factor of 8) and mid-root palatal (by a factor of 90) dentine at the cervical margin of the preparation. With an increase in ferrule height, the area of tensile stress within the palatal mid-dentine expanded towards the cervical margin. Similar patterns and stress values were recorded for the crown-lengthening models. Conclusion, The study confirms that a ferrule increases the mechanical resistance of a post/core/crown restoration. However a ferrule creates a larger area of palatal dentine under tensile stress that may be a favourable condition for a crack to develop. Crown-lengthening did not alter the levels or pattern of stress within compared with conventional ferrule preparations. [source]


    Spectrophotometric Analysis of Tooth Color Reproduction on Anterior All-Ceramic Crowns: Part 2: Color Reproduction and Its Transfer from In Vitro to In Vivo

    ABSTRACT Color reproduction of an anterior tooth requires advanced laboratory techniques, talent, and artistic skills. Color matching in a laboratory requires the successful transfer from in vivo with careful considerations. The purpose of this study was to monitor and verify the color reproduction process for an anterior all-ceramic crown in a laboratory through spectrophotometric measurements. Furthermore, a crown insertion process using composite luting cements was assessed, and the final color match was measured and confirmed. An all-ceramic crown with a zirconia ceramic coping for the maxillary right central incisor was fabricated. There was a significant color difference between the prepared tooth and the die material. The die material selected was the closest match available. The ceramic coping filled with die material indicated a large color difference from the target tooth in both lightness and chromaticity. During the first bake, three different approaches were intentionally used corresponding with three different tooth regions (cervical, body, and incisal). The first bake created the fundamental color of the crown that allowed some color shifts in the enamel layer, which was added later. The color of the completed crown demonstrated an excellent color match, with ,E 1.27 in the incisal and 1.71 in the body. In the cervical area, color match with ,E 2.37 was fabricated with the expectation of a color effect from the underlying prepared tooth. The optimal use of composite luting cement adjusted the effect from the underlying prepared tooth color, and the color match fabricated at a laboratory was successfully transferred to the clinical setting. The precise color measurement system leads to an accurate verification of color reproduction and its transfer. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The use of a dedicated dental spectrophotometer during the fabrication of an all-ceramic crown allows the dentist and the laboratory technician to accurately communicate important information to one another about the shade of the tooth preparation, the shade of the contralateral target tooth, and the influence of luting cement on the final restoration, thereby allowing the technician better control over the outcome of their tooth color matching efforts and the final color match of an all-ceramic restoration.

    Conservative treatment of a cervical horizontal root fracture and a complicated crown fracture: a case report

    Abstract This case report describes successful long-term conservative management of a cervical root fracture and a complicated crown fracture of the maxillary central incisors in a 12-year-old patient. A mineral trioxide aggregate partial pulpotomy was performed on the maxillary right central incisor, while the maxillary left central incisor was splinted to the neighbouring lateral incisor using an acid-etch technique. Both teeth remained asymptomatic throughout the 3.5 years of a review period, with the cervical root fracture having mostly healed with the formation of a calcified tissue between the fragments. Two different treatment methods were used for two different injuries that resulted in pulp preservation in both cases. This in turn has provided for normal root development to occur while also allowing for preservation of bone. [source]


    Use of a natural tooth crown as a pontic following cervical root fracture: a case report

    Abstract The loss of anterior teeth can be psychologically and socially damaging to the patient. Despite a wide range of treatment options available, traumatised teeth may be inevitably lost on certain occasions. This paper describes the immediate replacement of a right central incisor using a fibre-composite resin with the natural tooth crown as a pontic. The abutment teeth can be conserved with minimal or no preparation, thus keeping the technique reversible, and can be completed at chair side thereby avoiding laboratory costs. It can be used as an interim measure or a definitive prosthesis. [source]
