Interdisciplinary treatment of a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta: Case report with a 35-year follow-up.

Objective: This case will illustrate the interdisciplinary management of an adolescent female patient with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). It will contrast this approach and compare it to the previous "multidisciplinary" treatment rendered before the patient was referred for a second opinion.

Clinical Considerations: The patient had a family history of AI affecting all of her permanent teeth.

Interdisciplinary Management of a Complex Esthetic Dilemma.

Esthetic dilemmas often require an interdisciplinary approach to achieve an optimal result. This article describes such a case in which the patient presented with unesthetic porcelain crowns on structurally compromised maxillary anterior teeth. The maxillary incisors had failing root canals, advanced mobility, and deep periodontal pockets.

Active implementation strategy of CONSORT adherence by a dental specialty journal improved randomized clinical trial reporting.

Objective: To describe a novel CONsolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) adherence strategy implemented by the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (AJO-DO) and to report its impact on the completeness of reporting of published trials.

Study Design And Setting: The AJO-DO CONSORT adherence strategy, initiated in June 2011, involves active assessment of randomized clinical trial (RCT) reporting during the editorial process. The completeness of reporting CONSORT items was compared between trials submitted and published during the implementation period (July 2011 to September 2013) and trials published between August 2007 and July 2009.
