Guerin sign in midfacial fractures
(2016-05-31)Abstract: We report a patient with multiple fractures of the midface and Guerin sign bilaterally after maxillofacial trauma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that this rare presentation of Guerin sign ... -
Dental calcification stages as determinants of the peak growth period
(2016-07-25)Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of dental maturation stages for identifying individual-specific skeletal maturation phases. Subjects and methods: Prior to initiating ... -
Classification of Skeletal and Dental Malocclusion: Revisited
(2016-08-12)Introduction: The orthodontic dental classification used datedes for more than 100 years. The skeletal and dental classification of malocclusion has an important role in diagnosis and treatment planning. The aim of this ... -
The Role of General Pediatrician in Children’s Oral Health: A Review
(2016-08-29)Abstract: Oral health is an essential part of overall health and, thus, pediatricians have a responsibility to factor in oral health as part of providing holistic general health services for children. Coordination of care ... -
Evaluation of the influence of crown-implant ratio on short implants supporting single crown in the posterior maxilla and mandible: a retrospective analysis
(2016-09)Abstract: Short implants are considered a recent advancement in the dental implantology field. Machined short implants have been around since the 1980s but their high failure rate was used to justify sinus lifts; block ... -
Study of the transdentinal diffusion of bioactive molecules
(2016-09-21)Abstract: In this work the mass transfer characteristics in a μ-tube that simulates a simplified dentinal tubule geometry are numerically investigated. The aim is to assess the key features that affect transdentinal ... -
Clinical Parameters of the Gummy Smile among Sudanese Female Sample
(2016-11-21)Abstract: The gummy smile is one of the esthetic and psychological problems for adults especially females. Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the gummy smile and: Length of the upper ... -
A report on the oral health status of children with cerebral palsy in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
(2017)Abstract: We suggest investigating and improving the healthcare system provided for CP children, including general anesthesia facilities, dental appointments, dental follow-ups, and waiting lists. Parental/caregiver oral ... -
Lateral Wall Regeneration and Membrane Repair After Attempted Sinus Augmentation Using a Non-Resorbable Membrane
(2017)Abstract: Insufficient bone height for dental implant placement is often encountered in the posterior maxilla. Its main causes are postextraction alveolar ridge resorption and increased maxillary sinus size due to the ... -
A Novel Method to Evaluate Precision of Optical Implant Impressions with Commercial Scan Bodies—An Experimental Approach
(2017)Purpose: Optical transfer is realized with system-specific transfer posts (scan bodies) mounted on dental implants or on implant analogs. This study presents a novel algorithm for creation of geometry on the surface of ... -
Computational Modelling for Efficient Transdentinal Drug Delivery
(2017)Abstract: This work deals with the numerical investigation of the delivery of potential therapeutic agents through dentinal discs (i.e., a cylindrical segment of the dentinal tissue) towards the dentin–pulp junction. The ... -
Acid erosion: an increasingly relevant dental problem. Risk factors, management and restoration
(2017)Abstract: A review of risk factors and management of acid erosion. Particular emphasis is placed on the use of direct composite as a reversible and relatively straightforward restorative option. -
