Methodology: A partially edentulous model with a single implant was produced, and a scan body was fixed on the model. The control model was created by scanning the model using Ineos X5 (CM). The model was also scanned (n = 3) using three different intraoral scanners (IOS) [(Helios (H), TRIOS 3 (T3), Medit (M)]. GOM Inspect software was used for comparison. The data were analyzed with a Shapiro–Wilk test, resulting in a nonnormal distribution, and Kruskal–Wallis test was employed for intergroup parameter comparisons. Results: There were significant differences in the devices’ accuracy values (p < 0.05). Accuracy M (19.1 μm), T3 (25.3 μm), H (33.9 μm) and sensitivity values (M (10 μm), T3 (19.05 μm), H (25 μm)) are similarly listed from high to low as M, T3, and H. Conclusion: IOS can be used to create digital impressions for single-unit implant crowns. Clinicians should be cautious and selective when choosing IOS for more successful and accurate impressions. More comprehensive and clinical studies using different brands are needed on this subject. How to cite this article: Güzelce Sultanoğlu E, Keleş Eroğlu B.

{"title":"Evaluation of the buccal bone thickness in the anterior maxillary region using cone-beam computed tomography","authors":"Ahmet Sağlıklı, Fikret İpek","doi":"10.5577/idr.2023.vol13.s1.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5577/idr.2023.vol13.s1.1","url":null,"abstract":"Aim: This study aimed to analyze the buccal plate thickness of maxillary anterior teeth using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Methodology: This study involved a retrospective analysis of CBCT images from 104 randomly selected patients aged 20–50 years who had not experienced loss of their maxillary central and lateral incisors and canine teeth. The bone thicknesses of six anterior maxillary teeth were measured at 1 mm, 3 mm, and 5 mm distances apical to the alveolar bone crest (ABC) and between the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) and ABC for six anterior maxillary teeth. The association between buccal bone plate width and distance from the CEJ to the ABC was examined across genders and among different age groups. Results: The mean buccal bone thicknesses were 1.13 mm, 1.22 mm, and 1.04 mm at distances of 1 mm, 3 mm, and 5 mm, respectively. The mean distance from the CEJ to the ABC was 2.09 mm. A negative correlation was observed between age and the distance from the CEJ to the ABC. No correlation was found between buccal bone thickness and gender, and a negative correlation existed between age and buccal bone thickness. Women displayed a significantly lower distance from the CEJ to the ABC compared to men, and a negative correlation between buccal bone thickness and distance from the CEJ to the ABC was present across all tooth groups. Conclusion: This study revealed that the bone width in the maxillary anterior region was remarkably thin. Therefore, achieving the minimum bone thickness of 2 mm necessary for optimal aesthetic and functional outcomes is seldom feasible in this area. Considering these findings, additional research utilizing larger patient cohorts is essential to fully comprehend how age and gender affect buccal bone thickness and CEJ-ABC distance. Additionally, utilizing preoperative CBCT for radiographic analysis to identify risk factors and select the appropriate treatment approach is strongly recommended.

Methodology: A keyword search for \"biomimetic dentistry\" was conducted on YouTube. It used only publicly available Internet data from searching YouTube with the default filter “Biomimetic Dentistry” on April 3, 2023. Of the 200 examined videos, only 91 fit the inclusion criteria; those 91 videos underwent a content quality evaluation. The videos' viewing rates were determined after their demographic characteristics were assessed. The information quality index (VIQI) and the Global Quality Scale (GQS) were used to evaluate the video quality. For the statistical analysis, the Shapiro–Wilk, Kruskal–Wallis, Mann–Whitney U, Chi-square, and Fisher's exact tests were used. Results: Most of the videos (n = 59) were labeled \"low content,\" and healthcare practitioners uploaded the majority (91.2%) of them to YouTube. The most discussed subject was advantages and disadvantages (87.9%), followed by the definition of biomimetic dentistry (76.9%). The high-content video group's GQS and VIQI scores were significantly higher than low-content group. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the VIQI and GQS (p < 0.05) (p = 0,001) and a positive correlation between the overall content, total VIQI, and total GQS scores. Conclusion: The material in YouTube videos about biomimetic dentistry is insufficient for use as a patient information tool. Biomimetic dentistry-related YouTube videos' quality and content were typically poor. Health practitioners should be aware of the content of video-sharing platforms and take responsibility for enriching video content.

Methodology: In the present study, the reports of 500 patients over 18 years of age who were admitted to our faculty with an existing second premolar and missing first molar and who underwent cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging were randomly selected and retrospectively evaluated. In the study, alveolar crest types, the buccolingual width of the alveolar crest, crest height, lingual concavity depth, and lingual concavity angle were measured. Results: U-type crest was detected in 47.8% of 500 individuals evaluated using CBCT. The mean depth of the lingual concavities was 2.36 ± 1.11 mm, and the mean angle of the lingual concavities was 61.09 ± 11.33°. No statistically significant relationship was found between age and alveolar crest width, alveolar crest height, lingual concavity depth, and lingual concavity angle. No significant difference was found between genders in terms of lingual concavity depth, whereas alveolar crest width, alveolar crest height, and lingual concavity angle were significantly higher in males. Conclusion: The alveolar crest height, alveolar crest width, and lingual concavity angle of edentulous crests in the mandibular first molar region were statistically significantly higher in males compared with females. It can be beneficial to evaluate gender-related differences using CBCT to prevent complications before performing implantation and other oral surgical procedures in the related region.

Methodology: Thirty lower premolar teeth with moderate curvature (10-20°) were randomly divided into three equal groups (n=10) according to three rotary file systems [TRN (26.04v), PTUltimate (25.08v), and VDW.R (25.06v)]. The debris extruded apically was collected in Eppendorf tubes of known weights. After preparation, the tubes were placed in an incubator at 70°C for five days to evaporate the distilled water. The tubes filled with debris were then weighed again, and the net weight of the extruded debris was calculated in grams (g) by subtracting the initial weight from the final weight. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA test. Results: There was no significant difference in the amount of debris extruded apically by the three shaping files (p &gt; 0.05). The highest amount of debris extruded apically was 0.9534 g for PTUltimate. VDW.R extruded the minimum amount of debris apically, with 0.1833 g. Conclusion: All rotary files have caused apical debris extrusion. Even though there was no significant difference among the files, the VDW.R file extruded less debris compared to other file systems.

Methodology: A retrospective archive study was performed using panoramic radiographs taken before (T1) and after (T2) fixed orthodontic treatment. Panoramic radiographs of a total of 32 mandibular 1st and 2nd molar teeth were divided into groups: Group 1 (n:17), the control group, comprised radiographs of mandibular 1st or 2nd teeth without root canal treatment, and Group 2 (n:15) comprised radiographs of 1st or 2nd mandibular molars with root canal treatment. Fractal analyses were performed in four different regions—the periapical, bifurcation, mesial periapical, and distal periapical regions—of the mandibular molar teeth included in the study for a total of 128 analyses. Results: In the control group, orthodontic treatment did not make a statistically significant difference to the fractal dimension values in the four regions of the tooth (p > 0.05). In the endodontically treated group, the fractal dimension values of the mesial periapical regions increased statistically significantly after orthodontic treatment (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The FA values of this study showed that more biological interaction occurred in the root canal treatment group and in the mesial periapical region. Thus, it is important to keep orthodontic force within the tooth’s physiological limits to avoid damaging the tooth in the periapical areas where stress accumulates during orthodontic treatment.

Methodology: Dentin discs of 1 ± 0.2 mm thickness were taken from the middle root region of thirty-nine extracted mandibular premolar teeth and two holes (1 mm diameter) were drilled in each disc (n = 78 holes). The samples were then randomly divided into three groups (n = 26 holes) according to the final irrigation agents: Group 1: 20% CA, Group 2: 17% EDTA, Group 3: 10% GA. Then, two different materials were applied to the holes in each group (n = 13 holes): a: PD MTA White, b: Biodentine. POBS test was performed at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The dentin discs were examined under stereomicroscope (25×) to assess the bond failure type. Data were analyzed using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and comparison of main effects was examined with the Bonferroni test, and multiple comparisons were analysed with the Tukey HSD test. The level of signifcance was 5%. Results: Biodentine showed significantly higher POBS than PD MTA White (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the final irrigation agents (p > 0.05). CA – Biodentine group showed substantially higher POBS than EDTA – PD MTA White, CA – PD MTA White, and GA – Biodentine groups (p < 0.05).

The aim of this case report is to describe the nonsurgical root canal retreatment of two mandibular first molars in a patient's mesial roots that had previously missed middle mesial root canals (MMC). Methodology: A 14-year-old female was referred to the our clinic with the complaint of pain in the posterior areas of the right and left mandibula. During the examination, previous RCTs [teeth 36 (mandibular left first molar) and 46 (mandibular right first molar)] were observed. Besides, these teeth have periradicular lesions in the mesial roots probably due to unsuccessful previous treatment. Nonsurgical retreatment was suggested and accepted. Access cavities were prepared and the unnoticed MMCs were detected at the isthmus connecting both mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canals. All the root canals were shaped with NiTi rotary endodontic files. During the shaping, the root canals were irrigated copiously with NaOCl, EDTA, clorhexidine, and saline solutions under a certain protocol. Calcium hydroxide was used for intracanal dressing. Gutta-percha and a resin-based root canal sealer were used for filling. Coronal restorations of the teeth were completed with a composite resin. Conclusion: At follow-up examinations after 3-, 6-, and 12-months, the teeth were asymptomatic and radiographically showed repair of the lesion.

Material density and X-ray beam attenuation play important roles in this imaging. This study aims to evaluate the artifacts that are caused by brackets made of different materials and affect the visibility of International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) code 5 caries. Methodology: One premolar tooth with ICDAS code 5 caries was examined. Eight periapical radiographs were taken: one without a bracket and seven with different types of brackets (composite with metal slot, self-ligating ceramic, monocrystalline ceramic, polycrystalline ceramic, zirconium, self-ligating stainless steel, and conventional stainless steel). The gray values of the caries region were evaluated using Fiji software (version 1.53f, National Institutes of Health, USA) on periapical radiographs. Results: Conventional stainless steel and self-ligating stainless steel brackets increased the radiopacity of the outer half of the enamel (E1). When these brackets were present, the gray values changed by -13.63633 (p = .026) and -16.38967 (p = .006), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in column B due to the brackets. However, numerically, the gray value changes were similar to those in column A. Conclusion: Orthodontic brackets affect the evaluation of periapical images. Ceramic brackets provide more advantages than stainless steel brackets for radiographic imaging.
