Radicular fractures in permanent teeth are uncommon injuries and account for only 0.5-7% of dental traumas. These fractures commonly result from a horizontal impact and are transverse to oblique in direction. Their incidence is more in the middle third of the root than at the apical and cervical thirds. This paper describes a case of complicated crown fracture of maxillary incisors along with h...

Dental trauma sometimes causes fractures in the maxillary anterior teeth leading to esthetic, functional and phonetic quandaries. In this report, we describe the treatment of middle third root fracture of maxillary centrals and cervical third crown fracture of lateral incisor simultaneously fractured due to dental trauma. Treatment involved reattachment and splinting of fractured fragments with...

INTRODUCTION The present study was designed to clarify whether the bilateral cooperation in the human periodontal-masseteric reflex (PMR) differs between central incisors and canines. METHODS Surface array electrodes were placed on the bilateral masseter muscles to simultaneously record the firing activities of single motor units from both sides in seven healthy adults. During light clenching...

Synthesis of the first oxaphosphirane chromium(0) and molybdenum(0) complexes of the type [{(R(1)PCH(R(2))-O}M(CO)(5)] (R(1) = C(5)Me(5)) (8a-e, 15a-e) and (R(1) = CH(SiMe(3))(2)) (9a-e, 16a-e) via reaction of dichloro(organo)- (1, 2, 10, 11) and chloro(organo)phosphane complexes (3,4,12) with lithium bases and aldehydes 7a-e is reported. Furthermore, bicyclic 1,3-oxaphospholane complexes 17 an...

the anatomic anomalies detection is important for an attentive clinician. asuccessful treatment of an endodontically involved tooth should make itfunctional and aesthetically acceptable for the patient. the following articlepresented a case of gemination and the endodontic, prosthetic and periodontaltreatments which were done to keep a complicated tooth in aesthetic zone

The aim of this study was to re-examine Leon Williams geometric theory and to find the degree of correspondence between the face and the tooth form in the population of Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Two thousand individuals with intact frontal teeth, in age between 17 and 24 years, were measured for 3 horizontal distances on the face: temporal width (Ft-Ft), zygomatic width (Zyg-Zyg) and goni...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of damping on stress concentration in an impacted incisor. METHODS Damping ratios of maxillary incisors were tested using an in vivo modal testing method. A finite element model of the upper central incisor was established for dental trauma analysis. To assess the effect of damping properties on induced stresses in the traumatized i...

The aim of this case report was to present the treatment of a 14-year-old patient with anterior crossbite with idiopathic root resorption. A 14-year-old female patient referred to our clinic because of the presence of crossbite on the maxillary central incisor. The smile esthetics were compromised because of the crossbite of the maxillary right central incisor. Intraorally, the patient had an A...

Any type of aesthetic correction in dental practice is always a challenging task, especially when it is complicated with cleft lip and alveolus. Careful examination and correct decision making at early stage of treatment and multi disciplinary approach is always necessary for long term success. This paper described a multidisciplinary approach in managing a 19-year-old female patient with unila...

Abstract This study evaluated the dental displacement in dentures included different flasks and processed by Australian cycle modified or microwave. Metal pins were placed on teeth as reference for measurements: a) Incisal edge of maxillary mandibular central incisors, buccal cusp vestibular first premolars, mesiobuccal cusps second molars; b) Incisor to incisor, premolar molar molar; c) Left i...
