Aim: The aim of the work was to measure and compare facial parameters among respondents with a complete dental arch. Material and methods: 91 dental students participated in the research, 32 (35.2%) male and 59 (64.8%) female. The average age of the respondents was 22.16±1.53 years. The length and width of the face were measured, as well as the vertical and horizontal parameters, and the facial index was calculated. Results: Men had a significantly longer (Z=4.567; p<0.001) and wider face (Z=5.962; p<0.001) compared to women. There was no significant difference in the face index between women and men (ch 2 =2.492; p=0.666). There was also no significant difference in the vertical analysis of the face according to gender (ch 2 =0.065; p=0.798). In the majority of subjects, the shorter middle third of the face was measured. In the case of the expected division of the lower third of the face, it exists in a significantly greater extent in males (ch 2 =5.989; p=0.014). In the majority of subjects, the intercanthal width corresponded to the width of the eye, in both sexes, without statistical significance. Further, in a significantly larger number of male and female respondents, it was determined that the bipupillary corresponds to the intercommissural distance. The interalar distance corresponding to the width of the eye was more significantly present in women (ch 2 =5.002; p=0.025). Conclusion: Measurement of facial parameters can significantly improve dental therapy by enabling optimal aesthetic performance.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71202414","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}

Therefore, any traumatic dental injury has psychologically undesirable effects on children and their parents. The present study reported a case of a traumatic dental injury induced by falling off a chair and referral to an emergency department as well as measures taken for dental reconstruction and patient's improvement. Case Report: Parents with a 3-year-old girl came to the Clinic for Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry at University Dental Clinic Center \"St. Panteleimon\", Skopje with injuries to her face and oral structures resulting from a fall from a chair. The extraoral examination revealed a laceration on the submental skin surface and an injury to the upper lip. The child was examined and it was found that the maxillary left primary central incisor was compressed in the alveoli. The surrounding soft tissue was injured. Intraorally, the anterior segment of the maxilla showed injury consistent with low-velocity blunt-force trauma, including several lacerations of the gingival tissues. The patient's maxillary left central incisor was intruded from the socket. Conclusion: The prognosis of many cases of dental injuries is time-dependent. The intrusion of a tooth can have ramifications and the possibility that it has been fully intruded should be considered. The use of a radiograph is of great importance for the correct diagnosis of deciduous tooth intrusion.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71202644","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}

The modern concept of aesthetic dentistry is the most natural appearance of the teeth, and the success of the therapy is closely connected with the respect of anthropometric parameters and the correct ratio of hard and soft oral tissues. Orofacial elements should not be viewed separately from the composition of the face because they form an inseparable whole with it. The aim of this study was to analyze the parameters of the orofacial system that affect the aesthetics of fixed prosthodontic restorations based on literature data and clinical experience. Conclusion: The beauty of a smile is determined by the shape, color and proportions of the upper front teeth. The harmony in creating a smile is not significantly affected by individual numerical values of tooth width and length, but by their mutual relationship. A beautiful smile implies the convergence of the longitudinal axes of the front teeth in relation to the midline of the dental arch, which progresses from the central incisor to the canine. In addition to these criteria, the visibility of the incisors, the midline of the face and dental arch, interdental points and contacts, incisal free spaces as well as the color of the teeth should be taken into account in order to achieve maximum aesthetic effects.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71202847","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}

After carefully removing the necrotic periodontal ligament from the root of the tooth, extraoral endodontic treatment was performed. The pulp was removed, the multi-sessional intracanal medicament fillings were avoided and the definitive obturation of the root canal was performed. The tooth was returned to the alveolar socket and immobilized with a wire-composite splint. After replantation, the condition of the tooth was monitored.

They are defined as the luxation of teeth from the alveoli with complete rupture of periodontal fibres, or with one part attached to the rootcementum and the other to the alveolar bone, thus compromising the dental pulp, root cementum,and alveolar bone. The high prevalence and numerous negative consequences on the stomatognathic systems they have suggest permanent tooth avulsions should be regarded as an important public health problem. The aim: is to point out the therapeutic possibilities of permanent tooth avulsion that can ensure their longer survival in the oral cavity. Conclusion: The treatment strategy for avulsed permanent teeth is always based on limiting root canal infection and periradicular inflammation, shifting the balance from unfavourable (replacement resorption) to favourable (periodontal) healing.

Aim: The aim of this study was to review current literature for the prevalence of changes in the oral cavity i.e., the presence of oral symptoms in patients with COVID-19, in order to indicate that oral manifestations may occur due to viral infection with SARS-CoV-2. Methods: Important information relevant to the study was obtained by searching the available electronic PubMed and Google Scholar database. Results: Oral lesions were found in different locations in patients with COVID-19: tongue mucosa (dorsum and lateral sides of the tongue), buccal mucosa, hard and soft palate, inner lip and gingiva. The most common were ulcerations in different parts of the oral cavity. It is still unclear whether oral lesions in SARS-CoV-2 virus infection were a consequence of the primary effect of the virus itself or a secondary manifestation of the infection. The high presence of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 in oral epithelial cells of the tongue and salivary glands indicates that the oral cavity may be particularly susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

The problem of choosing the filling material is acute in each treatment of caries in children with mixed and permanent dentition. The aim: Todetermine and statistically substantiate parameters for choosing restorative material for permanent teeth in children with different stages of root development. Materials and methods: 248 children aged 7 to 11 (122 boys and 126 girls) and 246 children aged 12 to 17 (120 boys and 126 girls),students of Uzhhorod Secondary School №20 were examined.
