Loss of teeth leads to loss of function and lack of normal alveolar growth, along with unpleasant esthetics that hamper the psychosocial development of the young child. Traditionally, the management of single tooth loss in a young child is done by conservative means. The presence of large pulp chambers in incompletely mineralized immature teeth of children predisposes the pulp to loss of vitality in cases of complete coverage restorations . Hence, the clinician resorts to partial coverage prostheses such as Maryland Bridge, resin-bonded restorations, or removable prostheses in cases of multiple missing teeth. None of these treatment methods are completely satisfactory and have their drawbacks. Partial dentures are dependent on the child's compliance. They increase the rate of decay and may cause gingival disease leading to bone resorption. Furthermore, there is a need to refabricate a new prosthesis from time to time to compensate for craniofacial growth. Mini-screw implant placement in a young child would be an ideal method of treatment for the absence of teeth. They restore the function, preserve the alveolar bone, and give excellent esthetics, restoring the child's confidence and social acceptability. Parents are usually keen to get this treatment done as soon as offer the suggestion. To our knowledge, there is no previous study that compared the two techniques. The limited evidence shows that mini-screw implants supported pontics are useful transitional restorations for missing permanent maxillary incisors in children and adolescents; however, further well-designed clinical trials are needed in this regard. As a result, this study will be conducted to fill the gap of knowledge.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the placement accuracy in immediately placed implants using dynamic navigation between deep-threaded and regular-threaded implants in partially edentulous patients. The main question it aims to answer is: is there a difference in implant placement accuracy between deep-threaded and regular-threaded implants using dynamic navigation? Participants will receive implants placed immediately under dynamic guidance. Researchers will compare type of implant thread (Straumann BLT versus Straumann BLX) to see if there are significant differences in placement accuracy.
Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of the Effect of Hyaluronic Acid Surface Treatment Versus Sandblasted Acid Etched on Stability of Delayed Dental Implant in Posterior Maxilla.
Loss of teeth in the anterior upper jaw significantly affects both well-being and chewing function. Nowadays, dental implants are the treatment of choice for replacing missing teeth with fixed dental prostheses and are often placed in the anterior upper jaw. Depending on various patient-related factors, protocols for the placement of dental implants involve the following time points after tooth extraction: 1. On the same day (immediate implantation) 2. After 1-4 months (early implantation) 3. After more than 4 months (late implantation). The different treatment protocols have been investigated over long periods. The choice of the individually suitable treatment protocol for dental implantation depends on many factors and is of utmost importance in order to achieve the best possible treatment outcomes. Selecting an inappropriate treatment protocol would otherwise result in an increased risk of failure. After decades of research and development in dental implantology, an expert association (International Team for Implantology, ITI) published an evidence-based decision management tool in 2022. This decision management tool assists dentists in choosing the individually suitable implant treatment protocol for single-tooth replacement in the upper jaw. A structured examination of the tooth to be extracted allows to classify the situation and select the most suitable treatment protocol for the individual situation. The treatment protocols differ in terms of time and material requirements, which are associated with different costs. There is limited data about the cost-effectiveness of these treatment protocols. The present study aims to assess how the costs of the three treatment protocols differ in relation to treatment success.
Immediately implantation and immediate prosthesis could preserve the alveolar contour and gingival shape. The visiting time is quiet long. Pre-made prosthesis is a way to shorten the visiting time. But the implant has to be placed precisely. Novel digital workflow integrating dynamic navigation or static surgical guide to process one-visit single -implant immediate loading is possible. The study is to compare the x-guide dynamic navigation system or static guide system which one could assist the surgery more accuracy and place the prosthesis more smoothly.
This study will be initiated to compare the accuracy of implant placement using the guided trephination drilling protocol and the guided conventional drilling protocol.
IBD patients have a higher risk of oral diseases that affect the oral mucosa, the teeth and the tooth supporting tissues. These conditions are often associated with pain, bleeding and impaired masticatory function which may have an impact on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). However, few studies have investigated the self-evaluation of oral quality of life in IBD patients. The rare existing studies focus on very specific patients (elderly patients, patients with stomas) and do not use validated tools for the evaluation of OHRQoL. We also lack data on the effect of treatments such as immunosuppressants and type of IBD on OHRQoL. The aim of this study is to (i) compare oral quality of life in a cohort of IBD patients versus non-IBD patients and (ii) explore potential factors that influence oral quality of life in IBD
