ntroduction: the aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (cbct), digital radiography and tooth sectioning in evaluating root canal morphology of mandibular incisors in an in vitro setting. methods and materials: a total of 76 samples were imaged using cbct, and digital radiography in straight and angled views. the samples were then sectioned at different d...

This article describes the treatment provided to a patient with the maxillary anterior teeth exhibiting severe secondary caries beneath the previous restoration and a white spot lesion on the adjacent incisor. Two implants were placed after extraction of hopeless teeth with the guided bone regeneration technique. A white spot lesion of the adjacent incisor was treated with minimally invasive tr...

Background & Aims: Iron deficiency anemia is the most common kind of anemia in childhood. Iron supplements that are usually prescribed for the treatment stain teeth. The purpose of this study was an in vitro comparison of the adsorption rate of iron onto incisor primary teeth after exposure to three different Iron drops (Darupakhash, Fer–In– Sol, Shahredaru). Methods: This study was performed o...

Abstract Introduction: Prosthetic restorations in the frontal teeth, addition to functional and prophylactic requirements, must respond a special way aesthetic needs. This desideratum is challenge, especially when support for future prosthetic parts not characterized by uniformity of color. paper wants highlight importance color abutments, case single restorations, teeth. Case presentation: man...

OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence of lateral incisor agenesis impacted canines and supernumerary teeth in a young adult male population. MATERIALS AND METHODS The panoramic radiographs of 1745 military students (mean age: 18.6 ± 0.52 years) who attended the Center of Aviation Medicine of the Armed Forces of Greece during the period 1997-2011 were initially analyzed for lateral incisor agenes...

The relationship between irregularity of teeth and periodontal disease was investigated in 201 children aged 11-14 years. The upper and lower incisor teeth were assessed for spacing, labio-lingual displacement, and mesiodistal overlap at each of the six contact areas. Plaque and gingivitis were assessed at six sites on each of the four upper and four lower incisor teeth. There was evidence for ...

BACKGROUND Many reports have indicated the treatment for permanent teeth with disturbed eruption due to the presence of supernumerary teeth. However, successful treatment for an unerupted maxillary incisor with severe rotation and another maxillary incisor with disturbed eruption by a supernumerary tooth is quite rare. CASE REPORT We treated a 7-year-old Japanese male with an unerupted and se...

This report describes the extraction of a geminated maxillary right permanent central incisor in an 8-year-old white female followed by the autogenous transplantation of a maxillary left supernumerary incisor. A 2-year clinical and radiographic followup revealed no pathologic findings and confirmed continued root development and pulp vitality in the transplanted tooth. This report documents he ...

CE Incisor malocclusion is common in rabbits. If this condition occurs as an isolated entity at an early age, it probably has a genetic origin. Incisor malocclusion in older animals is usually secondary to, or occurs concomitantly with, premolar–molar malocclusion. Therefore, patients with incisor malocclusion should always receive a comprehensive oral examination. Incisor–premolar–molar malocc...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the width ratio of maxillary anterior teeth according to age in the Korean population and to evaluate the maxillary central incisor width-to-length (W/L) ratio, given differences in age and gender. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-three Korean adults were divided into 3 groups (n = 31) by age. Group I was 20 - 39 years old, Group II was 40 - 59 yea...
