Emergence Profile Angle Matters—Restoring Peri‐Implant Health by Adjusting Prosthetics—A Narrative Review

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To review the biological and clinical relevance of prosthetic design, specifically the emergence profile and restorative angle in influencing peri‐implant tissue health, and to illustrate how biologically driven prosthetic modifications can resolve inflammation and support peri‐implant stability.

A Simplified Technique for the Fabrication of Esthetic and Functional Space Maintainers in Pediatric Dentistry

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Premature loss of primary molars remains a frequent clinical problem in pediatric dentistry and may lead to space loss, occlusal disturbances, and the need for future orthodontic intervention. Conventional space maintainers, such as the band‐and‐loop appliance, are effective in preserving arch length but do not restore occlusal ...

Effects of Bleaching Protocols on the Esthetic Outcome and Surface Integrity of Enamel Treated With an Ammonia‐Free Silver Fluoride Solution

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the effects of three bleaching protocols on the color stability and surface roughness of enamel previously treated with a water‐based, ammonia‐free silver fluoride solution (Riva Star Aqua). Materials and Methods Eighty‐eight human enamel/dentin specimens were demineralized and treated with Riva Star Aqua, divided into

Diagnostic Accuracy of Dentin Sclerosis by Optical Coherence Tomography and the North Carolina Index in Noncarious Cervical Lesions

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the North Carolina Index (NCI) for identifying dentin type (sclerotic vs. nonsclerotic) in natural noncarious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Materials and Methods Thirty extracted human premolars with 30 NCCLs (90 regions of interest) were analyzed. Two blinded,

Clinical, Radiographic, and Histopathologic Features of Human Perigraftitis

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Perigraftitis is a biologic complication associated with dental implants placed in grafted bone, distinct from peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis. This report further characterizes its clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic features.

The Spot‐Dam Technique: A Protocol for Adhesive Cementation of BOPT Crowns

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT) uses vertical tooth preparation without a defined finish line, guided by provisional restorations to shape the gingival emergence profile. Subgingival crown margins inherent to BOPT increase the risk of residual cement and soft‐tissue trauma during adhesive cementation.

Influence of Superimposition Strategies and Landmark Distribution on the Full‐Arch Trueness of Orthodontic Digital Models

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the influence of superimposition protocols and landmark distribution on deviation outcomes in orthodontic full‐arch models. Materials and Methods Twenty plaster models were scanned using an intraoral and desktop scanner. Ten models were evaluated for landmark suitability and inter‐scanner coordinate agreement.

Occlusal Sensitivity to Articulating Foils in Patients With Temporomandibular Disorders and Healthy Controls

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Using articulating foils of varying thickness, occlusal tactile acuity was compared between patients with chronic painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDp) and healthy controls. TMDp patients showed enhanced detection of thinner foils and greater perceptual sensitivity, accompanied by a more liberal decision strategy, whereas higher frequencies of ...

The Direct Effect of Low-Magnitude High-Frequency Mechanical Vibration on Osteoclast Formation from RAW267.4 Monocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Low-magnitude high-frequency (LMHF) mechanical vibration has been demonstrated to enhance bone formation possibly through inhibition of osteoclastogenesis of bone.

Correlation Between the New Bite Force Meter and GC Dental Prescale II

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study evaluated a new one‐sided bite force meter (OBM‐01). In healthy and older adults, the device showed good reliability and moderate correlation with Dental Prescale II measurements. Habitual chewing side bite force was significantly higher, suggesting OBM‐01 may be useful for assessing oral function in clinical settings.
