Morse taper performance: A finite element analysis study

Clinics; 74 (), 2019
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate and compare the magnitude and distribution of stresses generated on implants, abutments and first molar metal-ceramic crowns using finite element analysis. METHODS: Preliminary three-dimensional models were created using the computer-aided design software SolidWorks. Stress and s...

Printing 3D models of canine jaw fractures for teaching undergraduate veterinary medicine

Acta cir. bras; 34 (9), 2019
Abstract Purpose To develop 3D anatomical models, and corresponding radiographs, of canine jaw fractures. Methods A base model was generated from a mandibular bone scan. With this model it was possible to perform fracture planning according to the anatomical location. Results The 3D base model of t...

Root canal morphology of the mandibular first premolars in a Yucatecan population using cone beam computed tomography: an in vitro study

Int. j. morphol; 36 (4), 2018
A successful endodontic treatment requires knowledge of the internal configuration of dental root canals. Most of the people who live in Yucatan are of Maya origin, characterized by a Mongoloid dental pattern. Because of their ethnicity, variations are expected. The purpose of this investigation is to as...

Facial asymmetry: virtual planning to optimize treatment predictability and aesthetic results

Abstract Facial asymmetry is a condition that compromises function and social interactions and, consequently, the quality of life. Orthodontic-surgical treatment may be indicated to achieve a stable occlusion and significant improvement in facial aesthetics. The virtual planning of the maxillary, mandibu...

Dentoalveolar evaluation of lower incisors by cbct after treatment with herbst appliance

Braz. dent. j; 29 (6), 2018
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the Herbst appliance on the proclination and protrusion of the lower incisors, and to verify if the device causes alveolar bone loss in the anterior region of the mandible. This is a retrospective study. The sample consisted of 35 individuals. The trea...

Сross-sectional anatomic study of direct positional relationships between mandibular canal and roots of posterior teeth using cone beam computed tomography

J. oral res. (Impresa); 7 (8), 2018
Objectives: to establish the frequency of the various types of direct contacts of the root apices with the wall of the mandibular canal and to determine gender differences in number of such contacts in a selected belarusian population using cone beam computed tomography. methodology: one hundred and two ...

Correlation between tooth size-arch length discrepancy and interradicular distances measured on CBCT and panoramic radiograph: an evaluation for miniscrew insertion

Abstract Introduction: The selection of appropriate sites for miniscrew insertion is critical for clinical success. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate how interradicular spaces measured on panoramic radiograph compare with Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), and how crowding ca...

Osteometric assessment of various mandibular morphological traits for sexual dimorphism in Jordanians by discriminant function analysis

Int. j. morphol; 36 (2), 2018
The aim of this study was to analyze the sexual dimorphism in the mandibles of Jordanians and derive a population specific equation for sex prediction. The employed sample comprised 270 cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of Jordanians (147 males and 123 females) aged 27-55 years. The images were...

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...

Additional intraoral radiographs may change the judgment regarding the final position of orthodontic mini-implants

ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to assess if additional vertical bitewing (VBW) and/or occlusal (OC) radiographs may change initial judgment based only on periapical radiograph (PAR) about the final position of orthodontic mini-implants (OMI). Methods: Subjective and objective analyses were perf...
