Purpose: this case report was done to discuss the proper treatment for MIH patients with crowns and composite veneers to restore the missing tooth structure, lack of function & poor esthetics. Methods: patient came to outpatient clinic suffering from low self-confidence and inability to chew food. Upon examination and investigations, she was diagnosed with MIH where her anterior teeth and first molars in both maxilla and mandible were affected. Conclusions: A detailed treatment plan was made starting with periodontal therapy followed by full ceramic crowns in upper anterior teeth, direct veneers in lowers followed by endodontic treatment in the molars and implants in the missing lower left molar and a bridge on the lower right side. The chosen treatment plan yielded great results and restored both the function and esthetics of the patient.","PeriodicalId":120858,"journal":{"name":"MSA Dental Journal","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139328853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although both materials share similar esthetic properties but have different mechanical properties which could affect their mode of failures. Therefore, the aim of the study was to analyze the failure modes of zirconia versus PolyEtherEtherKetone custom made posts in anterior endodontically treated teeth. Materials and Methods: Thirty-six anterior maxillary incisors with similar dimensions were collected, decoronated, endodontically treated, and post space prepared. The teeth were divided according to material of post into two groups: group (1) PolyEtherEtherKetone post and group (2) zirconia post. PolyEtherEtherKetone posts were surface treated via sulfuric acid while zirconia posts were sandblasted by 50um aluminum oxide particles. All posts were cemented using dual cure self-adhesive cement. Thermocycling at 5,000 cycles was done to all samples. Three slices of 2mm thickness were obtained from each sample. The samples were loaded to failure via universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Failure modes were evaluated using a scanning electron microscope under magnifications of 52x, 250x and 400x. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between failure modes of the two post material types at the cervical, middle as well as apical root levels (P-value = 0.070), (P-value = 0.580) and (P-value =","PeriodicalId":120858,"journal":{"name":"MSA Dental Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139328799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Thirteen edentulous patients received two implants each in the intra-foraminal region of the mandible, with SLA in the left side of the midline, laser-treated implants in the right side and ball stud attachments for the overdenture. The overdentures were early loaded after 6 weeks. Implants survival rate was evaluated over a12 months follow up period using image analysis software (Digora Optime, Soredex).

Motivation to adopt the science of ergonomics correctly is still lacking among dental students. Methods: Dental students at Modern Sciences and Arts University were given a self-administered survey. In total, sixty-two people took part in this survey. Participants were asked to complete a structured online questionnaire containing 18 questions regarding their MSDs symptoms, intensity and frequency. The data was collected within two weeks starting from the 1st of January 2023 until the 14th of January 2023, to be analyzed and surveyed. Results: Lower back pain was the most frequently reported musculoskeletal disorder among all dental students, while workload had a significant impact on these conditions. Female dental students experienced a greater intensity of pain and increased pain sensitivity, even though both sexes experience it in the same areas of the body. There was a direct relation between physical activity and experienced chronic pain in the lower lumbar region of the back among dental students. Conclusions: The majority of students appear to work in environments that exacerbate musculoskeletal system disorders. It is advised to incorporate ergonomics principles into routine work and practice regular physical activity. To create a comfortable working environment; dental ergonomics should be taught to undergraduate students and strictly implemented in the clinics.","PeriodicalId":120858,"journal":{"name":"MSA Dental Journal","volume":"313 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123150846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
