Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze and measure the dynamics of posed and unposed smiles through video clips, focusing on specific dental parameters.
- A total of 100 orthodontic patients were evaluated, and various measurements such as incisor exposure, lip positioning, and inter-labial gap were assessed using selected video frames.
- Results showed significant differences in the measurements for posed vs. unposed smiles, indicating that this video analysis could enhance diagnostic and treatment planning in orthodontics.
Background: Abfraction is a loss of tooth structure along the gingival margin and manifests with different clinical appearances. It has multifactorial etiology and may occur due to normal and abnormal tooth function and may also be accompanied by pathological wear, such as abrasion and erosion. The theory behind the abfraction is that the tooth flexure in the cervical area is caused due to occlusal compressive forces and tensile stresses.

Background: Calcium sodium phosphor-silicate material, a type of bio-glass was originally developed as an implant material to regenerate bone and recently adapted for use in oral care products (NovaMin Technology Inc.). Novamin is used for many dental problems like hypersensitivity, gingivitis, bleeding, non-carious lesions, carious lesions, whitening and is currently emerging as one of the treatment modality for the remineralization of the tooth.
