This case report describes a novel technique of restoring endodontically treated teeth. Hidden caries causing irreversible pulpitis in a mandibular molar with Radix Entomolaris (RE) was evident. The intact occlusal surface anatomy was duplicated before preparing an access cavity to replicate the original occlusal surface in the post endodontic restoration using (Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing) CAD/CAM technique. This report highlights uniquely designed onlay utilizing the benefits of contemporary materials and advanced technology.

The impact of retraction cords on the gingival margin level: A randomized clinical trial.

J Prosthodont

January 2025

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Oral Medicine and Periodontology, School of Dentistry, University of Jordan, Amman, Jordan.

Purpose: To examine the impact of placing plain and impregnated retraction cords for two different retraction times on the postoperative gingival margin level and periodontal health.

Materials And Methods: A total of 40 endodontically treated mandibular first molars were selected and randomly allocated into four groups (n = 10/group); A: plain retraction cord for 10 min, B: plain retraction cord, 20 min, C: impregnated (25% aluminum chloride (AlCl) retraction cord, 10 min, D: impregnated retraction cord (25% AlCl), 20 min. Intraoral digital scans were acquired, and periodontal parameters (Plaque index [PI], Bleeding on probing [BOP], and probing depth [PD]) were assessed at baseline, 7 days, and 28 days after retraction.

Introduction: This randomized clinical trial compared arch dimensional changes, dentoskeletal changes, and the rate of overbite correction in deep bite adults treated with fixed appliances and either maxillary incisor bite turbos (IBT) or canine bite turbos (CBT).

Materials And Methods: Forty-six deep bite subjects treated with fixed appliances were randomized into IBT (n = 23) and CBT (n = 23) groups. Changes in intercanine width (ICW), arch height (AH), and Little's Irregularity Index (LII) were analyzed from before treatment (T) to 3 months after aligning with 0.

Teeth, either erupted or impacted, that exceed the normal count are known as supernumerary teeth. They can appear unilaterally or bilaterally, singly or in multiples, and may be located anywhere in both dental arches. Multiple permanent impacted supernumerary teeth are uncommon and are often associated to syndromes but can be idiopathic.

Superior effect of mini-implant anchorage in the treatment of skeletal class II malocclusion.

J Orthod Sci

November 2024

Department of Orthodontics and Pedodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Van Lang University, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of mini-implant (MI) anchorage versus conventional anchorage for the treatment of skeletal class II malocclusion.

Materials And Methods: The study was conducted on 64 patients with skeletal class II malocclusion. The patients were divided into two groups: 1) 32 patients underwent conventional anchorage, and 2) 32 patients underwent MI anchorage.

Investigating the characteristics of the mandibular canal in cone beam CT.

J Orthod Sci

November 2024

Department of Pediatrics Dentistry and Orthodontics, Faculty of Odonto-Stomatology, Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Can Tho City, Vietnam.

Article Synopsis
  • The mandibular canal (MC) is a crucial anatomical structure that needs careful assessment using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) before surgical procedures.
  • A study analyzed 112 CBCT images of Vietnamese patients to determine the MC's dimensions and its relationship with nearby anatomical features.
  • Results showed that the average diameter of the MC was similar regardless of missing teeth, highlighting the importance of CBCT in treatment planning to prevent nerve damage during dental surgeries.
