Aim: This case report demonstrates the use of MTA as an obturating material to promote periapical healing of root canals with large apical rarefactions. Materials and Methods: An 18-year-old female presented with a complaint of dental caries in the upper anterior region. Radiographic lesions were found with 4 mm and 10 mm sizes in the central and lateral incisors, respectively. The patient presented with swelling of gingiva and formation of fistula one month after filling of root canals. MTA was used as an apical filling material for the apical surgery. Discussion and Conclusions: This case reports how teeth that had large periapical lesions with recurring symptoms could be fixed with periapical surgery using MTA.","PeriodicalId":19556,"journal":{"name":"Oral health and dental management","volume":"2 1","pages":"207-210"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82985135","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}

Many treatment modalities have been cited in the literature for treatment of pseudo prognathism and worn down dentition. Many of these treatments require invasive dental procedures. The advances of material and adhesive technology have created the opportunity to restore the occlusal vertical dimension and worn down natural dentition with minimally adhesive methods. A step by step procedure for treatment of this type of abnormality will be presented in a severely worn dentition treated with minimally invasive method. Within this case presentation, the steps of restoring occlusal vertical dimension and selection of material based on their physical properties will be discussed.","PeriodicalId":19556,"journal":{"name":"Oral health and dental management","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73849834","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}

Cytokines such as TNF-a have been associated with reduced GLUT4 expression. This study aimed to evaluate GLUT4 content, mRNA expression of the GLUT4 and IRS-1, Akt serine phosphorylation status in the gastrocnemius skeletal muscle (GSM), glycemia, insulinemia, TNF-α levels and change in body weight in offspring of rats with periodontal disease. Female Wistar rats were distributed into a control group (CN) and an experimental periodontal disease group (PD), in which a ligature was placed around the mandibular first molars. Seven days after ligature placement, both groups were mated with normal male rats. The ligatures remained throughout pregnancy until weaning, after which the male offspring were distributed into groups: CN-o, control rat offspring; and PD-o, periodontal disease rat offspring. The body weight from 0 to 75 days of age was measured. At 75 days, the glycemia, insulinemia, TNF-α levels, Akt serine phosphorylation, mRNA expression of the GLUT4 and IRS-1, and GLUT4 content in the GSM were measured in the offspring. Maternal periodontal disease causes low birth weight, insulin resistance, reduction in the Akt serine phosphorylation status, and decrease in mRNA expression of the GLUT4 and increase in mRNA expression of IRS1 in GSM of adult offspring. These metabolic alterations observed in later life can be attributed to the effect of ‘‘programming’’ and reinforce the importance of preventing maternal periodontal disease, aiming to prevent insulin resistance in the adulthood of offspring.","PeriodicalId":19556,"journal":{"name":"Oral health and dental management","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75847654","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}

Materials and Methods: Two PRFs were packed into each implant hole to elevate the Schneiderian membrane and sandblasted acid-etched implants were inserted simultaneously. Results: The follow-up panoramic radiographs and CTs showed that the new sinus floor was above the implant tip and the cortical outline was clear. Conclusion: The findings from both cases suggest that the PRF can promote noticeable bone gain in the crestal approach sinus lift procedure. A greater number of patients and a longer follow-up period are needed to investigate the reliability of this technique.","PeriodicalId":19556,"journal":{"name":"Oral health and dental management","volume":"2 1","pages":"153-156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90358421","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}
