We report a case of nonendodontically treated first upper premolar crown root fracture in which the palatal cusp fracture extended below the cementoenamel junction. Reattachment of the palatal cusp in its original position by acid-etch and flowable composite allowed the creation of a standard access opening as in an intact tooth, avoiding apex location errors and contamination of the root canal. During crown-lengthening surgery, the palatal cusp fragment was hollowed out and used as a natural individual matrix for placement of the core material.

Article Synopsis
  • * The patient's dental issues included a fractured tooth and signs of infection, leading to the decision to use a guided endodontic approach due to the complexity of accessing the canal orifices.
  • * After utilizing cone-beam computed tomography and 3D printing technology to create a treatment template, successful endodontic treatments were performed, with a positive outcome observed during a 1-year follow-up.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates how different materials for crowns and abutments impact the fatigue failure of single implant-supported crowns, which is important for their longevity under cyclic stress.
  • Ten designs were tested, including various ceramic and polymer materials, using a specific loading method to simulate real-life conditions.
  • Results showed that titanium abutments led to more rapid fatigue failure, while zirconia abutments demonstrated better durability, suggesting that choosing the right abutment material can enhance the lifespan of implant-supported crowns.

Background: This Finite Element Analysis was conducted to analyze the biomechanical behaviors of titanium base abutments and several crown materials with respect to fatigue lifetime and stress distribution in implants and prosthetic components.

Methods: Five distinct designs of implant-supported single crowns were modeled, including a polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polymer-infiltrated ceramic network, monolithic lithium disilicate, and precrystallized and crystallized zirconia-reinforced lithium silicates supported by a titanium base abutment. For the static load, a 100 N oblique load was applied to the buccal incline of the palatal cusp of the maxillary right first premolar.

Objective: This retrospective single-centre study aimed to compare the efficacy of maxillary second molar intrusion with two different approaches, miniscrew-assisted molar intrusion and traditional segmental archwire intrusion, and to compare orthodontically induced external apical root resorption (OIERR) during intrusion between two groups via cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Materials And Methods: A total of 40 adult patients (33.6 ± 10.
