Authors: Baykul Timuçin , Alanoglu E. Guchan , Kocer Gulperi 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
To determine the efficacy of the topical application of Ankaferd Blood Stopper™ (ABS) on hemorrhagic diathesis following dental procedures under different conditions.

Background
Some patients have a tendency to bleed excessively after dental surgery for a variety of reasons, making oral surgical procedures more risky for these patients.1 Since hemorrhage can cause major morbidity and mortality, the identification of a novel, effective hemostatic agent could improve the management of excessive bleeding that occurs during dental procedures.

Case Descriptions
Four patients (3 females, 1 male) aged 28–45 with bleeding tendencies due to different presurgical conditions such as von Willebrand Disease, chronic liver failure, and mitral valve replacement presented for tooth extraction. Hematological consultations were obtained prior to surgical intervention and their international normalized (INR) ratio values were adjusted to less than 1.5; none received clotting factor replacement. All the extractions were performed under local anesthesia with and without epinephrine. In the presence of postsurgical bleeding, the efficacy of the ampule form of topical ABS was observed. Sex, age, anamnesis, von Willebrand Factor, activated partial thromboplastin time, factor VIII, and platelet counts of patients were recorded prior to the extractions.

Conclusions
ABS was found to be effective within 10 to 20 minutes in controlling bleeding in most of the patients after dental surgery. These observations suggest the use of ABS may be a beneficial hemostatic agent for use in patients with hemorrhagic diathesis following tooth extraction. Additional research is needed to clarify the role of this unique medicinal product in the surgical treatment of dental patients with bleeding tendency.

Clinical Significance
ABS has demonstrated potential for being an effective hemostatic agent for the treatment of excessive bleeding following dental surgery in four patients with hemorrhagic diathesis.

Authors: Gupta Rajan , Pandit Nymphea 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of biphasic calcium phosphate (ossifi®) and bioactive glass in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects clinically and radiographically and compare them with open-flap debridement.

Methods and Materials
A total of 45 sites in two test groups (test 1, ossifi; test 2, bioactive glass) and a control group (open-flap debridement), in 35 patients, were selected in this study conducted at the department of Periodontics and Oral Implantology, D.A.V.(C) Dental College, Yamuna Nagar, India. Clinical parameters like plaque index, gingival index, pocket depth, and clinical attachment level were recorded at the baseline and at three months and six months postoperatively. Radiological parameters like the amount of defect resolution and the percentage of defect resolution were recorded at the baseline and at three months and six months postoperatively.

Results
Statistically significant difference in mean values of the plaque index, gingival index, pocket depth reduction, clinical attachment level, gain amount of defect resolution, and percentage of defect resolution were observed in all the groups at subsequent time periods.

Conclusion
Both test groups showed significant improvement over the control in both the clinical and radiological parameters.

Clinical Significance
A greater percentage of defect resolution was noticed in test 1 as compared to test 2, followed by the control.

Authors: Parisotto Thaís Manzano , Steiner-Oliveira Carolina , Gavião Maria Beatriz Duarte , Souza-e-Silva Cíntia Mariade , Nobre-dos-Santos Marinês 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
The purpose of the case report was to describe the treatment of a 4½-year-old boy with amelogenesis imperfect (AI) in the primary dentition.

Background
AI is a hereditary condition that affects the development of enamel, causing quantity, structural, and compositional anomalies involving all dentitions. Consequently, the effects can extend to both the primary and secondary dentitions.

Report
A 4½-year-old boy was brought to the dental clinic complaining of tooth hypersensitivity during meals. The medical history and clinical examination were used to arrive at the diagnosis of amelogenesis imperfecta. The treatment was oral rehabilitation of the primary molars with stainless steel crowns and resin-filled celluloid forms of both maxillary and mandibular primary incisors and canines.
Improvements in the patient's psychological behavior and the elimination of tooth sensitiveness were observed, and the reestablishment of a normal occlusion resulted in improved eating habits. The child was monitored in the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic at four-month intervals until the mixed dentition stage.

Summary
The oral rehabilitation of young children with AI is necessary to reestablish the stomatognathic system function, so important for a child's systemic health. An adequate medical history and a careful clinical examination were essential for a correct diagnosis. Treatment was rendered that was appropriate for the child's age and clinical/psychological characteristics.

Clinical Significance
Cost-effective restorative techniques involving stainless steel and composite-resin crowns are shown for the restoration of a young patient with amelogensis imperfecta.

AbstractAimProphylactic surgical extraction of impacted third molars is a common practice throughout the world justified on the presumption that the risk of surgical morbidity increases with increasing age, among other reasons. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare surgical morbidity associated with third-molar extractions in young and aging populations.Methods and MaterialsA review of records for all patients who underwent the surgical extraction of impacted third molars between April 2001 and June 2006 at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital was carried out.ResultsA total of 506 patients had surgical extractions of impacted third molars under local anaesthesia during the period of the study. Of these, 470 (92.9 percent) patients were below the age of 40 years (Group A) and 36 (7.1 percent) patients were 40 years of age and older (Group B). No incidences of severe intraoperative complications (excessive bleeding or mandibular fractures) were recorded in either group, but other postoperative complications were reported in 70 (13.8 percent) patients. Of these 70 patients, 65 (92.9 percent) were from Group A and 5 (7.1 percent) were from Group B, and their complications included infected socket, dry socket, paraesthesia, and buccal space abscess.ConclusionsNo significant difference in postoperative complications following surgical removal of mandibular third molars was found between patients 40 years old and greater and those below age 40. Prophylactic surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars, based on the assumption that surgical morbidity increases with age, may not be justifiable.Clinical SignificanceAge does not predispose patients who had surgical extraction of mandibular third molars above 40 years of age to any additional surgical complications when compared to patients below the age of 40 years receiving comparable treatment.CitationAdeyemo WL, Ogunlewe MO, Ladeinde AL, Hassan OO, Taiwo OA.

Published: July 2019

AbstractAimThe aim of this study was to determine the frequency and distribution of third-molar agenesis in orthodontic patients from the East Anatolian Region of Turkey.Methods and MaterialsOur data were obtained from the panoramic radiographs of the 2,579 patients 12 to 16 years of age in the Department of Orthodontics at the Atatürk University in Erzurum, Turkey. Subjects with congenital deformities, such as a cleft palate, were excluded from the study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software and a chi-squared test.ResultsOf the 2,579 subjects, 1,964 (76.2 percent) had all four third-molar teeth, 238 (9.2 percent) had three, 214 (8.3 percent) had two, 66 (2.6 percent) had one third molar, and 97 (3.8 percent) had agenesis of all third-molar teeth. There was no significant difference in agenesis of third-molar teeth between the right and left sides and no gender predilection was noted. However, significantly more third-molar teeth were found to be missing from the maxilla compared to the mandible, with a ratio of approximately 1.5:1.ConclusionAccording to our results, the absence of one third molar is the most frequently detected pattern in the East Anatolian population. Additionally, the absence of third molars is more frequent in the maxilla than the mandible.Clinical SignificanceTo date no information about third-molar agenesis in the East Anatolian population from Turkey is documented. This is believed to be the first known study on this subject in this population.CitationKazanci F, Celikoglu M, Miloglu O, Oktay H.

Direct Laminate Veneers with Resin Composites: Two Case Reports with Five-Year Follow-ups
Authors: Bayindir Yusuf Ziya , Zorba Yahya Orcun , Barutcugil Cagatay 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
The aim of this report is to present five-year follow-ups of two different applications for the use of direct laminate resin-based composite veneers to improve esthetics.

Background
Defects in the maxillary anterior teeth, such as enamel hypoplasia and peg lateral, can present esthetic challenges. Furthermore, a treatment plan that can be completed in a single appointment is highly desirable. This case report presents two different clinical cases involving the use of direct laminate resin-based composite veneers with five-year follow-ups.

Case Report
Case 1: A 17-year-old female patient was referred for treatment of her anterior teeth, which were unesthetically altered due to enamel hypoplasia and dental caries. A treatment plan was developed that included restoring the affected teeth with direct resin-based composite laminate veneers to improve the patient's appearance. The six maxillary anterior teeth were prepared for and restored with direct resinbased composite laminate veneers. At the fiveyear follow-up, the patient was satisfied with the restorations both esthetically and functionally.
Case 2: A 15-year-old female patient also was referred for treatment to improve the appearance of her maxillary anterior teeth. A treatment plan was developed with two objectives: (1) to restore the undersized supernumerary crown in the area of the maxillary right lateral incisor and (2) to close the anterior diastemas. The facial surfaces were conservatively prepared and resin-based composite was applied with the aid of transparent crown forms. After completion of the treatment, the patient was recalled at six-month intervals. At the five-year follow-up appointment, the restorations were intact, no adverse effects were noted, and the resultant appearance was highly satisfactory for the patient.

Summary
The use of direct resin-based composite laminate veneers and adhesive bonding systems has been shown to provide an esthetic alternative to metal-ceramic or all-ceramic crowns for the rehabilitation of anterior teeth. This treatment option offers another advantage, namely a lower cost compared to an indirect technique. Other more complex and costly treatment options in the future are not ruled out.

Clinical Significance
In the present two cases, the initial and five-year follow-up results support the use of direct resin-based composite laminate veneers with minimal altering of healthy tooth structure. Such results should encourage clinicians to seek a cost-effective technique such as direct resin restorations to improve a patient's esthetic appearance in a single appointment.

Regression Equations for Predicting the Size of Unerupted Canines and Premolars in an Iranian Population: A Pilot Study
Authors: Talebi Maryam , Parisay Iman , Sarraf Ali , Mazhari Fateme 
Published: July 2019

AbstractAimThe aim of this pilot study was to evaluate equations for predicting the size of unerupted canines and premolars during the mixed dentition period in an Iranian population.Methods and MaterialsThis cross-sectional analysis was performed on 106 subjects (52 girls, 54 boys, aged 13–15 years). Data were obtained from dental cast by making direct measurements of the maximum mesiodistal widths of all mandibular and maxillary incisors, canines, premolars, and first molars with an electronic digital sliding caliper, with an accuracy of ±0.02 mm and repeatability of ±0.01 mm. The results were statistically analyzed using Student t tests, Pearson product-moment coefficients, and ANOVA tests. Correlation coefficients (r) and error variance of estimates were determined using a significance level of p<0.05.ResultsNo significant differences were found between the mesiodistal tooth widths of males and females in this Iranian population. The highest correlation was between the sum of the mesiodistal width of canines and premolars in the maxilla with the mesiodistal width of the mandibular first molars and maxillary central incisors (r=0.742). A moderate correlation was obtained in the mandible (r=0.665). Approximations were developed to predict the size of the unerupted canines and premolars in both jaws (in the maxilla, Y = 0.740X + 14.271, or the simplified formula, Y = 3/4X + 14; for the mandibular arch, Y = 0.658X + 16.353, or the simplified formula, Y = 2/3 X + 16).ConclusionThe strongest correlation was found for the sum of the mesiodistal width of canines and premolars in the maxilla with the mesiodistal width of the mandibular first molars and maxillary central incisors in the maxillary analysis (r=0.742). A moderate correlation was found in the mandible for the sum of the mesiodistal width of canines and premolars with the mesiodistal width of the mandibular first molars and maxillary central incisors (r=0.665).Clinical SignificanceThe simplified equations proposed for the maxillary arch (Y = 3/4 X + 14) and for the mandibular arch (Y = 2/3 X + 16) offer an easy and practical way to predict the size of unerupted canines and premolars in the maxillary and mandibular arches of Iranian children.CitationTalebi M, Parisay I, Sarraf A, Mazhari F.

Effects of Two Antioxidants on the Microleakage of Resin-Based Composite Restorations after Nonvital Bleaching
Authors: Moosavi Horieh , Ghoddusi Jamileh , Moghaddas Mohammad Javad , Rajabi Omid 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
The aim of this study was to compare the neutralizing effect of antioxidant agents on the microleakage of dental restorations in nonvital teeth after bleaching with carbamide peroxide. Also assessed was the correlation of the microleakage data between an electrochemical and a staining technique.

Methods and Materials
Following root canal therapy, 40 sound and similar human maxillary central incisors were randomly divided into four groups of 10 specimens each (n=10). The groups were subjected to one of four treatments: Group 1, bleaching with 10 percent carbamide peroxide for periods of eight hours per day for one week without an antioxidant agent; Group 2, bleaching with 10 percent carbamide peroxide plus 10 percent sodium ascorbate gel; Group 3, bleaching with 10 percent carbamide peroxide plus 10 percent sodium ascorbate gel combined with a surfactant; and Group 4, no bleaching treatment (control group). In all groups, the access cavities were restored using the Single Bond Plus Adhesive system and Z100 resin-based composite. After 1,000 thermal cycles, the teeth were dried and three layers of nail varnish were applied over the entire surface area to within 1.0 mm of the restoration. A PVC-covered copper wire, with 3.0 mm of exposed bare wire, was inserted apically 5.0 mm into the canal, which was obturated with gutta-percha and sealed with sticky wax and varnish at the apex. Leakage was continuously monitored for 40 days using a conductimetric method. The teeth were immersed in 0.5 percent basic fuchsine for 24 hours, followed by sectioning for microscopic examination at 16x magnification. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and the Newman-Keuls multiple comparison, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney, and Spearman's rho tests (p<0.05).

Results
Based on the electrochemical results, cavities subjected to 10 percent sodium ascorbate gel combined with a surfactant displayed the least amount of microleakage while teeth that were bleached but not treated with an antioxidant exhibited significantly greater microleakage (p=0.007). These findings also were corroborated by the results of the staining experiments that showed a strong correlation between the electrochemical and staining findings (p=0.006) for the groups.

Conclusion
After nonvital bleaching and the application of the antioxidant 10 percent sodium ascorbate, the addition of the surfactant 0.2 percent Tween 80 to the conventional antioxidant formulation significantly reduced microleakage.

Clinical Significance
The addition of a surfactant to the antioxidant formulation significantly reduced microleakage when it was applied after bleaching.

Success or Failure of a Dental Implant: It's Relationship to Bone Density: A Case Report of a Failed Implant
Authors: Malik Rajvir , Garg Rachna , Suresh D.K. , Chandna Shalu 
Published: July 2019

Abstract

Aim
The purpose of this article is to illustrate the relationship of bone quality and the prognosis of dental implant.

Background
Reported success rates for dental implants are high. Thus, an implant-supported restoration offers a predictable treatment for tooth replacement. Nevertheless, failures that mandate immediate implant removal do occur.

Case Description
A case involving a 40-yearold male patient who had a missing mandibular left first molar is reported. A mucoperiosteal flap was made using interdental and crevicular incisions. The osteotomy was performed starting with the pilot drill, then the depth of the osteotomy was assessed using the shoulder depth gauge. The site was gradually enlarged using reamers with progressively increasing diameters. The implant (Bicon's Nano Tite™) was then placed. However, three months later at the second stage surgery, the implant was found to be clinically mobile. The surgical site selected in this case had fine trabeculated bone with thin cortical plates (D4 bone) that apparently contributed to the failure of dental implant.

Summary
Implant therapy has become common practice and will continue to increase in popularity. This also implies that dental professionals will have to learn more how to deal with implant failure and related complications. Why an implant does not integrate could have a multifactorial etiology.

Clinical Significance
The type and quality of bone available to support a dental implant are very important, so attention should be directed to all the factors responsible for the success or failure of a dental implant. In cases involving D4 bone, one must consider other treatment modalities for replacement of a missing tooth or use caution in the placement of the implants, especially in the high-load-bearing molar areas.

Rashmdeep's Method: A Novel Method to Confirm Nasal Breathing
Authors: Nayak Rashmi , Prajapati Deepesh 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Mouth breathing has been a very prevalent oral habit, especially among children. Common etiologies behind this common occurrence can be physiologic enlargement of lymphoid tissue like adenoids leading to decrease nasopharyngeal airway or allergic rhinitis. The traditional or the latest methods used for diagnosing mouth breathing either are too subjective or cannot be performed in usual dental setups.
This article presents an innovative method to confirm whether patient can breathe through the nose. This can also be used to diagnose any unilateral nasal blockade.
