Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Loss of teeth is a condition where one or several teeth are lost from the socket. Loss of one or several anterior teeth can cause esthetic disruption, loss of confidence, concerns about appearance, and lost function of the teeth, thereby greatly affecting an individual's mind and activity. The loss of some or all of the teeth has many impacts, one of which is the emotional impact. Emotional impact is a feeling or assessment reaction that is derived from the nervous system in response to stimuli from the outside or inside due to loss of teeth, which is known through the categories affected, avoidance, depression, irritability, embarrassment, and feeling old.

Aim
This study aimed to describe the emotional impact of tooth loss in patients at Unsyiah Dental Hospital, Banda Aceh, Indonesia.

Materials and methods
This research was a descriptive, cross-sectional design. Sampling was done by random sampling method, which included 100 respondents.

Results
The results showed that the emotional impact that can be caused by tooth loss in patients at Unsyiah Dental Hospital in the period from January to March is as follows: 50% classified as mild, 39% moderate, and 11% severe. Emotional effects of losing a tooth are as follows: 49% disturbed category, 7% avoidance, 7% depression, 4% offended, 30% embarrassed, and 54% feeling old.

Conclusion
The emotional impact of tooth loss in patients at our dental hospital is classified as mild to severe, of which a mild emotional impact was found often.

Clinical significance
Tooth loss is one of the common problems that often occurred at the dental clinic, and loss of teeth function can greatly affect an individual's mind and activity.

Successful Conception and Delivery in an Unusual Case of 46,XY Pure Gonadal Dysgenesis with Spontaneous Breast Development, Menses, and Bilateral Hydrosalpinx
Authors: Nadkarni Kishore 
Published: July 2019

AbstractAimTo study unusual presentations of 46XY pure gonadal dysgenesis (Swyer syndrome), implications of delayed diagnosis, importance of karyotype and early gonadectomy and pregnancy outcome with ART.BackgroundTo report a case of Swyer syndrome with spontaneous breast development, menses and bilateral hydrosalpinx with Successful pregnancy outcome.Case description30 years old lady presented with primary infertility, secondary amenorrhea and normal secondary sexual characters. Sonography revealed small uterus with atrophic ovaries and B/L hydrosalpinx. Hormonal profile showed hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism and Karyotype was 46XY. Laparoscopic salpingectomy and gonadectomy was done. Histopathology revealed streak gonads with no evidence of malignancy and diagnosis of 46XY disorder of sexual development (DSD)/ Swyer syndrome was made. After endometrial preparation with ethinyl estradiol, patient conceived with allogenic oocytes and delivered preterm twins vaginally at 31 weeks.ConclusionPatients with Swyer Syndrome usually present at adolescence with delayed puberty and/or primary amenorrhea. However they can present late with secondary amenorrhea or just irregular, infrequent menses or primary infertility. Karyotype is mandatory in such cases and early gonadectomy improves long term survival as incidence of malignancy in the dysgenetic gonad is high. Incipient malignancy is usually the source of estrogen in patients with normal secondary sexual characters. Hypoplastic uterus is responsive to estrogen therapy in terms of enlargement and endometrial preparation and also this uterus may have the ability to respond to the process of labor and these patients can deliver vaginally.Clinical significanceEarly diagnosis and timely management of patients with dysgenetic gonads is important. Pregnancy is possible with allogenic oocytes. Genetic counseling and long term follow-up is required.How to cite this articleSingh P, Kalra A, Nadkarni PK, Nadkarni K.

Interarch Tooth Size Relationship of Indian Population: Does Bolton's Analysis Apply?
Authors: Regalla Ravindra Reddy , Subbarao Vummidisetti V , Santi V , Anita G 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Background
Orthodontists have several methods to detect inter arch-tooth size discrepancies in patients presenting for orthodontic treatment. Many methods such as Pont's analysis, Nance and Carey's analysis, Peck and Peck ratio, Bolton's analysis are commonly used methods. A thorough search of literature reveals a paucity of reliable data on the mesiodistal dimensions of the crowns of the permanent dentition of Indian population. Without information about the size of individual tooth and groups of teeth for Indian population, it is difficult for the clinician to make an adequate diagnosis and treatment plan and to carry out a plan of therapy.

Aim
To determine the size of individual permanent tooth and the sex differences, with tooth size ratios according to Bolton's formula and to evaluate the reliability of Bolton's norms (Anterior/Posterior) in Indian population.

Materials and methods
One hundred and twenty cases in which an excellent occlusion was naturally existent with the mean age of 22 years (18-27 years) were selected in the study. The casts were prepared after taking alginate impression of maxillary and mandibular arches and pouring them immediately with dental stone. A sliding Digital Vernier calliper used to measure the teeth. The ratios of the mean of mesiodistal dimensions of types of teeth were computed.

Results
The mean overall ratio for the Indian population is found to be 92.11 with a standard deviation of 2.12. The values ranged from 86.50-97.13 and the median is 92.16. The mean anterior ratio for the Indian population is found to be 78.14 with a standard deviation of 2.59.

Conclusion
Bolton's original data does not represent Indian population. In our study Greater size variability was found in maxillary teeth as compared with mandibular teeth except mandibular first molar. Our study indicated that populationspecific standards are necessary for clinical assessments. Significant differences were shown for the overall ratio and anterior ratio for both sexes as compared to Bolton's ratio.

ABSTRACTIntroductionThis study evaluated the cervical fit of cemented metal–ceramic and In-Ceram implant-supported crowns, before and after the cementing procedure.Materials and methodsTwenty crowns cemented on implant abutments are divided into two groups (n = 10): Group 1 – cemented metal–ceramic crowns and group 2 – cemented In-Ceram crowns. The marginal adaptations before and after cementation were evaluated in a comparison microscope with an error of 1 μm. All crowns were cemented with zinc phosphate cement.ResultsThe cervical misalignment of cemented crowns before cementation (52.65 ± 11.83 and 85.73 ± 14.06 μm) was lower than that after cementation (66.80 ± 15.86 and 89.36 ± 22.66 μm).ConclusionThe cementing procedure interferes with the marginal fit of cemented crowns on implant abutments, with the prosthesis having better adaptation before cementation. Cemented metal–ceramic crowns exhibited better cervical adaptation than In-Ceram crowns cemented before and after the cementing procedure.Clinical significanceThe maintenance of gum health and the longevity of prosthetic restorations are closely related to the restoration's marginal integrity.How to cite this articleValente VS, Francischone CE, Vilarinho Soares de Moura CD, Francischone Júnior CE, Silva AM, Ribeiro IS, Maia Filho EM, Bandéca MC, Tonetto MR, de Jesus Tavarez RR.

Antimicrobial Efficacy of Mixtures of Nanosilver and Zinc Oxide Eugenol against Enterococcus faecalis
Authors: Haghgoo Roza , Ahmadvand Motahareh , Nyakan Mohammad , Jafari Mojtaba 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Aim
This study aimed to assess the antimicrobial efficacy of 0, 0.5, 2, and 5 wt% nanosilver in conjunction with zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) against Enterococcus faecalis.

Materials and methods
Nanosilver in 0.5, 2, and 5 wt% concentrations was added to ZOE and the antibacterial activity of the mixtures on E. faecalis was assessed using disk diffusion method, and the results were reported as the diameter of the growth inhibition zone.

Results
The diameters of the growth inhibition zones around 0, 0.5, 2, and 5 wt% concentrations of nanosilver particles were not significantly different at 24 and 48 hours and 1 week; however, the difference with the azithromycin disk was significant.

Conclusion
Considering the lack of a significant increase in the diameter of the growth inhibition zones around 0, 0.5, 2, and 5 wt% ZOE containing nanosilver, it appears that addition of nanosilver up to 5 wt% cannot improve the antibacterial properties of ZOE sealer against E. faecalis.

Clinical significance
Microorganisms present in the root canal system of primary teeth are mainly responsible for endodontic infections. Enterococcus faecalis is the most important cause of endodontic failure. Application of sealers that decrease the adhesion and colonization of bacteria, as well as susceptibility to bacterial infections can greatly help in this regard. Using these sealers in conjunction with antibacterial agents, such as nanosilver particles may yield higher antibacterial efficacy.

Evaluation of 4% Sodium Hypochlorite in eliminating Enterococcus faecalis from the Root Canal when Used with Three Irrigation Methods: An in vitro Study
Authors: Pandey Vinisha , Priyank Harsh , Bagul Abhishek , Majety Kishore Kumar , Verma Parul , Choudhury Basanta Kumar 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Endodontic treatment removes all pathogens, such as Enterococcus faecalis from pulp and root canals. The aim of this study is to assess the usefulness of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in removing E. faecalis from the root canal used with three different irrigation methods.

Materials and methods
This study was conducted on freshly extracted maxillary incisors. After biomechanical preparation, root canals were injected with E. faecalis. Three groups were made which contained 30 teeth in each group; 2 mL of NaOCl solution was used for irrigation followed by agitation with K-files in group I; 2 mL of NaOCl solution was used for irrigation and ultrasonic agitation was done in group II. In group III, an alternate irrigation with NaOCl and 3% hydrogen peroxide was done. The fourth group (control) was irrigated with sterile saline solution. E. faecalis bacteria were sampled to the root canals with paper points and were transferred to tubes that contained 5 mL of brain heart infusion broth. Tubes were incubated and the presence of broth turbidity was suggestive of bacteria remaining in the root canal.

Results
All three groups showed no statistically significant difference. However, difference existed between experimental groups and control groups.

Conclusion
The author concluded that all three methods of application of NaOCl were effective in disinfecting the root canal than the saline solution.

Clinical significance
No single irrigant has 100% efficiency. Thus by this study, a best irrigating solution with maximum properties can be established.

Nonconventional Therapeutic Protocol for Type III Dens Invaginatus
Authors: Estrela Carlos , de Figueiredo José AP , Kunert Gustavo G , Kunert Itaborai R , Barletta Fernando B 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Introduction
This study discusses a nonconventional therapeutic protocol for type III dens invaginatus. This condition is a disorder of dental development, caused by the invagination of enamel into coronal and/or radicular dentin structure. This promotes several structural alterations within the dental organ, which offers challenges and difficulties to perform the endodontic treatment when needed. This article reports a clinical case where a conservative approach was adopted to preserve the invaginated tooth, and endodontic treatment was performed in the main necrotic canal. Following 21 years of observation, a complete root formation could be seen, with dental pulp preservation of the pulpotomized tooth. Considering the reported difficulties for the treatment of dens invaginatus, conservative measures, such as pulpotomy to preserve the remaining dental pulp may be an excellent alternative to allow less invasive procedures, thus avoiding endodontic surgery. This study discusses a nonconventional therapeutic protocol for type III dens invaginatus. A conservative approach adopted preserved the invaginated tooth, and root canal treatment was performed in the main necrotic canal. Following 21 years of observation, there was complete root formation, with dental pulp preservation of the pulpotomized tooth.

Management of Acanthamoeba and Candida Keratitis in a Young Female: Our Experience at Princess Haya Military Hospital
Authors: Raqqad Nancy Al , Fgara Naser Al 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Aim
We aim to share our experience in the management of a 19 years old female patient, who presented to Princess Haya Military Hospital in Aqaba, Jordan, with a very aggressive keratitis.

Patients and methods
A 19 years old female patient with 1 year history of keratitis that did not resolve despite several treatment strategies tried elsewhere, presented to the eye clinic in Aqaba.
Ocular examination showed signs of Acanthamoeba keratitis with perineuritis.
Corneal cultures were not informative. Corneal biopsy showed a mixed Candida and Acanthamoeba growth.

Results
The patient was started on topical and oral anti-amoebic and antifungal treatment (antiamoebic drops brought from UK). Improvement was drastic after 2 weeks of treatment. The patient maintained a chronic low infective state and scarring of the cornea. She received therapeutic and visual karatoplasty 3 months later.
Patient is now 12 months after her PKP. The cornea is clear and vision is 6/12 unaided.

Conclusion
Cases of mixed fungal and amoebic keratitis are very rare. Prompt treatment and diagnosis is essential for recovery. Controversy still exists on the use of steroids after corneal transplantation for treatment of chronic fungal keratitis. Management should be tailored to each individual case.

Acanthamoeba Keratitis: Different Surgical Approaches
Authors: Bikbov Mukharram , Surkova Valentina , Usubov Emin 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
The features of acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) progression, clinical cases, and results of early and delayed penetrating keratoplasty as the main method of severe AK treatment are presented. It is described as two clinical cases with different surgical approaches: Case 1 – delayed keratoplasty after remission and case 2 – early keratoplasty during a severe flare up of the disease.
In the 1st case the keratitis led to the development of chronic keratouveitis, secondary glaucoma, complicated cataract, and vision loss. The received keratoplasty was of only anatomic effect. In the 2nd case early keratoplasty allowed avoiding secondary complications and retaining a satisfactory visual acuity along with avoiding reoperations.

Published: July 2019

ABSTRACTThere are reports on the successful management of mild to moderate keratoconus in patients with Down's syndrome. However, when Down's syndrome is coexistent with Dementia, poor general health, and very advanced keratoconus in only one eye, then clinicians may face challenges at all stages from diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Our case is one such example of a combination of Down's syndrome, Dementia, poor general health, and very advanced keratoconus with a white cataract in the only functioning eye. This report highlights the dilemmas which were encountered and learning points on selection of the safest, yet effective management options in such patients.How to cite this articleAli H, Nanavaty MA.

Authors: YU Jian-hong , Tseng Chi-Hsin 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Skeletal class III with anterior crossbite is a very common orthodontic problem in Taiwan. Early diagnosis and treatment are very important to achieve effective correction. This article reports the treatment outcomes using improved superelastic TiNi alloy wire (ISW; developed by Tokyo Medical and Dental University) for a case of skeletal class III malocclusion with anterior crossbite and lower anterior crowding combined minor facial asymmetry. ISW allowed relief of crowding to facilitate correction for this case. In comparison with the traditional treatment with SSW multiple L loops of class III patient, ISW multiloop edgewise archwire (MEAW) can provide a more efficient and easier way for the patient. After 16 months of treatment, a desirable outcome was achieved and patient was satisfied with the treatment procedure and result.

Authors: Tattan Mustafa , Kokovic Vladimir , Rahman Muhammed Mustahsen , Rahman Betul 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Objective
The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate to value of primary implant stability for two-piece zirconia implants and longitudinally stability changes of implants during the healing period of 16 weeks.

Materials and methods
Ten patients treated with 12 two-piece non metallic zirconia dioxide root shape implant (4/10 mm, Axis Biodental, Les Bios, Switzerland) for single tooth replacement in the upper premolar area. Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) was used for assessment of longitudinally changes of implant stability during 16-weeks observing period. All patients have been re-evaluated 1 year after loading.

Results
Mean implant stability quotient (ISQ) value of initial implant stability for 12 implants was 60.25 (3.72). Statistically, significant decrease was noted in the first 3 weeks after insertion (p = 0.000). Also, statistically significant increasing of implant stability was recorded for observing period for 6th to 16th week.

Conclusion
Increasing of ISQ value during observing period suggests loading of two-piece zirconia dioxide root shape implant for single tooth replacement in the upper premolar area, after healing period of 4 months.

Management of Invasive Cervical Resorption Involving the Pulp by Surgical and Restorative Therapy
Authors: Ranna Vinisha , Sayed Abrar 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is a form of external resorption which affects the cervical area of permanent teeth and may progress to involve the pulp. It can cause insidious loss of tooth structure, which often is undetected until late in the process. Two cases, both involving the maxillary left central incisor where cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed an invasive cervical resorptive lesion, extending from the cervical to mid root region and perforating the pulp chamber. The cases were managed surgically with the help of a dental operating microscope (DOM). Nine months follow-up revealed resolution of the lesion and restoration of the affected teeth to functional occlusion. This report emphasizes the restorability of advanced lesions of ICR, if adequate diagnostic and treatment equipment is used.
