background: malocclusion, as a worldwide issue, can cause a lot of problems for patients. panoramic (pr) and lateral cephalometric (lcr) radiographs are both usually indicated for orthodontic treatments. the aim of this study was to analyze vertical and sagittal parameters of both jaws on prs and to compare them on lcrs. materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 61 samples from all ...

abstract the attrition of anterior teeth leads to the loss of efficient anterior guidance, which protects posterior teeth from wear during lateral excursions. this clinical report describes a 48-year-old man with diagonal tooth wear and posterior mandibular tooth loss. the clinical diagnosis was based on a complete oral examination, photos, functional analysis of lateral excursion movements, ge...

abstract background and aim: considering the widespread development of implants in dental treatment plans, linear measurements on panoramic radiography are of especial importance. in the present study we investigated the effect of head misalignment up to 15° around vertical and horizontal axes on the magnification rate of digital panoramic radiography in each part of upper and lower jaws. mater...

gamma camera is an important apparatus in nuclear medicine imaging. its detection part is consists of a scintillation detector with aheavy collimator. substitution of semiconductor detectors instead of scintillator in these cameras has been effectively studied. in this study, it is aimed to introduce a new design of p-n semiconductor detector array for nuclear medicine imaging. a p-n semiconduc...

UNLABELLED Advanced tooth wear often results in lost vertical dimension and impacts facial aesthetics. Complex restorative treatment can replace the lost tooth structure and improve functional occlusal and facial skeleton parameters. PURPOSE The aim of the study is to assess changes in the morphological and functional occlusal parameters of the facial skeleton after prosthetic rehabilitation ...

BACKGROUND The term decreased occlusal vertical dimension refers to the reduced distance between two anatomical points while the teeth are in a state of occlusion. The development of this situation is about some parafunctional activities of the masticatory system. AIM To evaluate the value of decreased occlusal vertical dimension in cases with temporomandibular disorder and to follow up the i...
