Evaluation the scanning accuracy of Blue-Light laboratory scanners in complete edentulous Maxilla with multiple implants with titanium scan bodies

Odovtos (En línea); 25 (3), 2023
Abstract To evaluate the accuracy of complete arch scanning with multiple implant titanium scan bodies using laboratory scanners. A master model of an edentulous maxillary arch with 6 implants was fabricated. Titanium scan bodies were inserted into the model. Three laboratory scanners were used: D2000 (3...

Accuracy of Intraoral Scanners and Conventional pressions in Full-Arches: a Systematic Review

The aim of this study was to evaluate intraoral scanners accuracy in full-arches, comparing them with conventional impressions. A scientific research performed in MEDLINE, EBSCOhost, and SciELO databases was conducted to analyze articles published between 2015 and 2020. Clinical and in vitro studies that...

3D technology to measure dental arches and create a template for lingual brackets technique

ABSTRACT Objective: This study aims at identifying anatomical dimensions of dental arches, based on landmarks currently used in the lingual orthodontic technique, and create an archwire form template to be used in orthodontic clinics. Methods: Maxillary and mandibular dental casts of 140 Caucasian ind...

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...

Digital models: How can dental arch form be verified chairside?

ABSTRACT Introduction: Plaster dental casts are routinely used during clinical practice to access maxillary dental arch form and assist on fabrication of individualized orthodontic archwires. Recently introduced, digital model technology may offer a limitation for the obtainment of a dental physical re...

Miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion for managing arch perimeter in an adult patient

ABSTRACT Introduction: Etiology of dental crowding may be related to arch constriction in diverse dimensions, and an appropriate manipulation of arch perimeter by intervening in basal bone discrepancies cases, may be a key for crowding relief, especially when incisors movement is limited due to underly...

Early vertical correction of the deep curve of Spee

ABSTRACT Even though few technological advancements have occurred in Orthodontics recently, the search for more efficient treatments continues. This paper analyses how to accelerate and improve one of the most arduous phases of orthodontic treatment, i.e., correction of the curve of Spee. The leveling of...

Three dimensional evaluation of alveolar bone changes in response to different rapid palatal expansion activation rates

ABSTRACT Introduction: The aim of this multi-center retrospective study was to quantify the changes in alveolar bone height and thickness after using two different rapid palatal expansion (RPE) activation protocols, and to determine whether a more rapid rate of expansion is likely to cause more adverse...

Evaluation of occlusal stability after treatment with self-ligating Damon system brackets

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the occlusal and arch form stability of self-ligating Damon System appliance treatment, after a mean period of 3 years. Methods: The sample consisted of 20 patients (10 female and 10 male) Class I malocclusion with mild to moderate crowding treated orthodont...

Cone-beam computed tomography evaluation of upper airway, dental arches dimensions and buccolingual inclination through of cases treated with Damon system

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess changes in upper airway, dental arches dimensions and buccolingual inclinations of teeth in patients treated orthodontically with the Damon system. Material and Methods: Twenty-one patients of both sexes, mean initial age of 14.99 ± 1.97 years, with comp...
