Root morphology and number of canals in mandibular central and lateral incisors using cone beam computed tomography

Braz. dent. j; 29 (3), 2018
Abstract Most failures in endodontic treatment of mandibular incisors are due to the presence of a missed canal specifically the lingual. This investigation aimed to examine the root morphology and number of canals in mandibular incisors using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Two hundred and seven p...

3-H in 3-D: envisaging beyond the current hype, the hope and hurdles of three-dimensional "virtual planning" in orthognathic surgery

Int. j. morphol; 36 (1), 2018
SUMMARY: Recent technical and technological advancements in orthognathic surgery concepts, intricate in the diagnosis and treatment planning for corrections of dento-facial deformities, have achieved stable oro-dental functional occlusion and facial esthetic harmony. Undeniably, this can be attributed to...

Maxillary sinus floor pneumatization and alveolar ridge resorption after tooth loss: a cross-sectional study

Abstract This is a cross-sectional study that aimed to estimate maxillary sinus floor (MSF) pneumatization in single missing tooth of posterior maxilla, by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). CBCT images were analyzed bilaterally and divided into 2 groups: edentulous site (EdS) - edentulous singl...

Odontoma Compuesto: Diagnóstico y Tratamiente Reporte de Casos & Revisión de la Literatura

RESUMEN: Los odontomas son los tumores odontogénicos benignos más prevalentes. Estos están conformados por tejido dentario, epitelio odontogénico y tejido mesenquimático. Se dividen en dos subtipos: odontomas compuestos, que presentan tejidos dentarios normales, pero con una alteración en su confor...

Treatment of endo-periodontal lesion using leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin. A case report

Colomb. med; 48 (4), 2017
Abstract Case Description: The main objective of this paper was to report the clinical effectiveness of leukocyte- platelet- rich fibrin (L-PRF) in the treatment of a combined endo-periodontal lesion of an upper first premolar. Clinical Findings: The tooth had a profound abfraction on the vestibular ...

Cone beam computed tomography for evaluation of impacted supernumerary teeth: a case report

Supernumerary paramolars are the rare anomalies of the maxillofacial complex. These are more common in the maxilla than in the mandible. Supernumerary teeth are an infrequent developmental alteration that can appear in any area of the dental arches and which are often associated with several syndromes su...

Soft tissue changes after anterior maxillary osteotomy by using 3D CBCT scanning

The objective of this study was to evaluate the soft tissue changes after anterior maxillary osteotomy using cone beam computed tomography. The study included twelve patients diagnosed as suffering from an excess of the anterior part of maxilla and required surgical correction by anterior m...

Ankylosis of Permanent First Molar: Diagnosis by Cone Beam Computed Tomography

ABSTRACT: Ankylosis is an anomaly of tooth eruption characterized by the fusion of cementum and alveolar bone, and may affect from small regions to the entire root surface. Clinical assessment combined with imaging exams can aid diagnosis. Radiographic testing enables assessing only proximal regions of p...

Variaciones del recorrido del conducto alveolar inferior: revisión de la literatura

El conocimiento y la aplicación de la anatomía es imprescindible para todo profesional que interviene en la evaluación, diagnóstico, pronóstico y tratamiento de las diferentes alteraciones del complejo maxilofacial. El desconocimiento de las relaciones anatómicas del conducto alveolar i...

Evaluación de Lesiones Periapicales en Pacientes Derivados a Cirugía Periapical Mediante Tomografía Computarizada de Haz Cónico

El uso de la tomografía computarizada de haz cónico (CBCT) en endodoncia ha ido en aumento, justificando su uso en casos más complejos, como cirugías periapicales. El objetivo fue evaluar las características imagenológicas encontradas en un grupo de pacientes derivados a cirugía periapical, median...
