The influence of functional loading on bone remodelling in the human mandible [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The strain (i.e. deformation) history influences the degree of mineralization of cortical bone (DMB) as well as its osteonal microstructure. This study aimed first to examine the relationships of stress and strain distributions with the variations in DMB

Two‐Color Overlay Occlusal Adjustment for Implant‐Supported Single Crowns: A Chairside Clinical Technique

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To describe a chairside two‐color overlay method for qualitative comparison of occlusal contact markings recorded before and after seating an implant‐supported single crown. Clinical Considerations Baseline contacts are recorded on adjacent and opposing natural teeth while the implant site remains edentulous, using one surface color ...

The Influence of Temporo-Mandibular Joint Support Conditions and Osseintegration on Mastication Load Transfer in a Mandibular Prosthesis

open access: yes
In the design of mandibular implants, the application of previous research findings, which highlight the significance of asymmetric occlusal load transfer schemes, is often lacking.

Effect of Nocturnally Worn Occlusal Splints on Condylar Position

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Measuring articulator with electronic dial gauges, three‐dimensionally freely movable upper part and a 20 N weight. An occlusal splint was placed in the upper jaw with thermoplastic material as a centric relation record. ABSTRACT Background Patients with craniomandibular dysfunction may experience changes in mandibular position over time when wearing ...

Early Maintenance and Change of Planned Removable Prosthodontic Treatment Pathways in Patients With Functional Limitations: The Role of Impression Feasibility and Caregiver Support

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In adults with functional limitations undergoing planned removable prosthodontic treatment, early pathway change (conversion to implant‐based rehabilitation or treatment abandonment) occurred in 22.4% of patients, most within 12 weeks. Impression feasibility under routine outpatient conditions and high caregiver support were independently associated ...

Definitive Obturator Prosthesis Post Mandibular Dredging for Treatment Ameloblastoma Patient: A Case Report

open access: yes
Background: Ameloblastoma is an odontogenic tumor that can cause bone destruction in the mandible. Mandibular dredging is a conservative treatment that involves enucleation and curettage of tumor tissue to remove tumor tissue from the bone-tooth loss ...

Tooth Wear Severity and Temporomandibular Joint Degenerative Findings on Cone‐Beam Computed Tomography: A Cross‐Sectional Study in Adults

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 80 adults with TMD symptoms (160 joints), tooth wear was scored clinically and TMJ degeneration was assessed on CBCT. Adjusted analyses showed no association with osteophytes, erosion, subchondral cysts, or definite osteoarthritis, indicating that tooth wear alone does not predict TMJ degeneration.

The Effect of Different Mandibular Advancement Devices on Sleep Parameters in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Obstructive sleep apnea arises from repeated upper airway collapse during sleep, causing apnea events. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) treat this by advancing the mandible to open the airway. Three device types—conventionally manufactured (Mundgleiter) and CAD/CAM‐manufactured (OPTISLEEP, Narval CC)—were compared, with an average mandibular ...

Implant stability quotient and osteogenic process in dental implant sites prepared using piezoelectric technique: A study in minipigs

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Few studies have explored the bone response in dental implant sites prepared using a piezoelectric device, indicating moderate effectiveness in enhancing secondary stability and osteogenesis. This study seeks to expand our understanding of the changes in biological, clinical, and radiographic parameters, during the initial phases of ...
