Titanium and titanium alloys have been used for dental implants, due to their excellent biocompatibility and suitable mechanical properties. The frequency in use of titanium and titanium alloys for dental applications has gradually increased. For example, in 2020, a Japanese insurance approved the use of pure titanium for posterior molars as a metallic cast crown. Titanium alloys have also been used for frameworks of removable partial denture. Allergic reactions to titanium and titanium alloys are rare but do occur. One theory of unexplained implant loss is that the patient is hypersensitive to titanium. The hypersensitivity causes an inflammatory reaction to the implant body and failure to osseointegrate, resulting in implant failure. The patch test for diagnosis of titanium hypersensitivity has been unreliable because the result of the patch test does not match the clinical symptoms. Standard titanium reagents for patch tests are needed for accurate diagnosis of titanium hypersensitivity to prevent the failure of implants.
The objective of this review was to evaluate literature reporting the status of allergic diagnosis for titanium hypersensitivity and analyze the results mentioned. Based on these results, a possible standardization of the titanium reagent for the patch test were discussed. These searched literatures indicated that further national and/or registry based studies will be needed to better inform clinical practice and to identify the scale of metal sensitivity, clear diagnostic criteria, and long-term clinical performance data on hypoallergenic implants.

Objective: The surgeries for extraction of impacted lower third molars are more associated with complications such as pain and postoperative edema. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the impact of the use of Leukocyte- and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) on pain and edema after extraction of impacted mandibular third molars. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional split-mouth study was conducted with 15 volunteer patients who had both impacted mandibular third molars with indication for extraction. The removal surgery was performed one side at a time, with an interval of 14 days. One side received L-PRF while the other did not. Patients were evaluated on the 2nd and 7th postoperative days for mouth opening, pain and edema. Results: In total, data from 14 patients (4 men and 10 women), with a mean age of 21.83 ± 2.8 years were evaluated. There was no statistically significant difference regarding mouth opening, pain and edema on the 7th postoperative day. On the second postoperative day, greater edema was observed in the control group with a statistically significant difference (p = 0.01). Conclusions: Under controlled conditions, the L-PRF does not appear to alter postoperative recovery after extraction of the lower third molars in terms of pain, edema and the ability to open the mouth. Despite the statistically significant difference in edema on the second day, the means were very close and were not clinically relevant.

Purpose: To assess the shear bond strength (SBS) and adhesive remnant index score (ARI) of different primers in dry condition and in wet conditions. Materials and Methods: A total of 80 human premolars which are free from caries, cracks, and fine lines were collected and mounted on acrylic. These teeth were randomly distributed into two groups (Assure Plus and Transbond XT/MIP). Each group was again reassigned into two subgroups (dry and wet) with 20 teeth in each subgroup based on the primer used and enamel surface after etching (Contaminated or Non contaminated). All teeth bonded were then stored in separate glasses containing distilled water for seven days at 37 0C. Universal testing machine was used to measure the SBS by applying 50 kg of force at 0.5 mm/min. The adhesive remnant index was assessed by using a stereomicroscope. Results: There is no statistically significant difference in shear bond strength of Assure plus and Transbond XT bonded in dry conditions. Among the four subgroups, Assure Plus on wet teeth showed the high bond strength (12.63 ± 6.64 Mpa). There is a statistically significant difference in ARI scores between Assure Plus and Transbond MIP bonded in wet conditions (P<0.001). Conclusion: On moisture contaminated teeth, Assure Plus showed higher bond strength than Transbond MIP. Transbond MIP has the least bond strength among all, but the bond strength is adequate to withstand the masticatory forces.

Purpose: The aim of this article is to acquaint the readers with the aims and goals of the finite element method and how to use it in dentistry and especially in orthodontics. Methods: The finite element method (FEM) has shown to be a beneficial research tool that has assisted scientists in various analyses such as stress-strain, heat transfer, dynamic, collision, and deformation analyses. The FEM is responsible for predicting the behavior of objects under different working conditions. It is a computational procedure to measure the stress in an element, which performs a model solution to solve a problem; the FEM subdivides a large system into smaller, simpler parts called finite elements. This is achieved by a particular space discretization in the space dimensions, which is implemented by the construction of a mesh of the object. The technique of FEA lies in the development of a suitable mesh arrangement. Conclusions: The FEM can be effective in understanding the behavior of teeth, both jaws, craniofacial structure, and other hard tissue structures of humans under various working conditions, as the technique allows for evaluating tooth movement and the stress distribution within the surrounding alveolar bone, the periodontal ligament (PDL). This technique is exceptionally valuable for evaluating mechanical aspects of biomaterials and human tissues that can hardly be measured in vivo. This review article presents the FEM, its methodology, and its application in the orthodontic domain.

Numerous studies have shown that propolis, from the sting and stingless bees, possessed antimicrobial, antifungal, antidiabetic, antitumoral and antioxidant properties. Propolis produced by stingless bees, Heterotrigona itama, also possessed these properties but in varying intensity. Exploiting this natural product with antimicrobial properties against Enterococcus faecalis (EF), would be advantageous in endodontics. Particularly where the current synthetic medicament, calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), failed to remove these bacteria, predominantly found in failed root canal-treated (RCT) teeth. The aims of this study are to determine the antimicrobial properties of Malaysian propolis (MP) against Enterococcus faecalis and to compare the antibacterial effect of MP with Ca(OH)2 as an intra-canal medicament. Raw propolis was purchased from Humaira Honey Sdn Bhd, Lenggong, Perak and the ethanolic extraction method was carried out until lyophilization. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) was done on five samples, namely, MP, Ca(OH)2, 2% chlorhexidine (CHX), 70% ethanol, and sterile normal saline (SDW), where CHX, 70% ethanol and SDW as controls. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) methods were carried out. The MIC and MBC for MP and CHX were done using the micro-dilution method on 96-well, while Ca(OH)2 were performed using the serial macro-dilution method. The results were analysed by Kruskal Wallis test with Mann-Whitney posthoc test and repeated-measures ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc test (p <0.05). The mean MIC from three trials that were carried out on the samples was CHX (<0.008%) < MP (0.03%) < Ca(OH)2 (0.62%). While the MBC values for three trials were found to be CHX (0.011%) < MP (0.07%) < Ca(OH)2 (1.25%). In conclusion, MP was shown to be antibacterial and effective against Enterococcus faecalis and is more effective when compared to Ca(OH)2, which is commonly used as an intra-canal medicament. Further research is needed to test MP’s clinical efficacy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the difference between retruded contact position (RCP) and centric occlusion (CO) at the level of mandibular condyles. Materials and methods: Study included 20 completely dentate participants (average 24.4 ± 1.2 years). All recordings of the condylar deviations were measured with the use of the ultrasound mandibular recording device with six degrees of freedom. CO was determined using active method of centric relation recording (participants were trained to stationary hinge and maintain the position of the lower jaw at the first tooth contact/contacts). RCP was determined with passive method of centric relation recording (chin point guidance). RCP and CO deviations to the reference position (habitual occlusion) were recorded with the use of the mandibular recording device at the level of x (anterior – posterior), y (vertical) and z (lateral) axes. Linear RCP and CO deviations (from the habitual occlusion) were measured. Descriptive statistics was measured, and the RCP and CO deviation values were compared using independent samples T test. Results: Average linear condylar deviation values for the CO were 1.30 ± 1.14 mm, and 2.13 ± 1.89 mm for the RCP. Independent samples T test showed statistically significant difference between RCP and CO linear deviation values (α=0.021). Conclusions: There is a difference in the positioning of the condyle within temporomandibular joint, with passive or active centric relation recording methods. CO and RCP can be identified as different occlusal positions.
目的:本研究的目的是探讨下颌骨髁突水平的后退接触位置(RCP)和中心咬合(CO)的差异。材料和方法:研究纳入20例全齿受试者(平均24.4±1.2岁)。使用六自由度超声下颌骨记录装置测量所有髁突偏差的记录。使用中心关系记录的主动方法确定CO(参与者被训练为固定铰链并保持下颌在第一颗牙齿接触处的位置)。采用被动中心关系记录法(颏点导引法)测定RCP。使用下颌记录装置在x(前后)，y(垂直)和z(侧)轴水平记录RCP和CO到参考位置(习惯性咬合)的偏差。测量线性RCP和CO偏差(习惯性闭塞)。进行描述性统计，采用独立样本T检验比较RCP和CO偏差值。结果:CO的平均直线偏差值为1.30±1.14 mm, RCP为2.13±1.89 mm。独立样本T检验显示，RCP与CO的线性偏差值差异有统计学意义(α=0.021)。结论:采用被动和主动中心关系记录方法，髁突在颞下颌关节内的定位存在差异。CO和RCP可以被识别为不同的咬合位置。

Objective: To study the relationship between dental malocclusions and non-nutritive, and deleterious habits in children from the public school system in a city in the interior of Paraíba, Brazil. Methods: This was a prospective, quantitative and analytical cross-sectional study carried out with 122 children, aged 7 to 11 years, and their caregivers; of both sexes, through the application of a validated questionnaire with the following variables: type of breastfeeding; nutritional, non-nutritive and chewing habits, in addition to intra and extra-oral examination to detect malocclusions and relate them to habits. The data obtained were analyzed by descriptive statistics using the IBM SPSS Statistics Software. Results: The sample, with a mean age of 8.38 years, presented a majority of male (53.3%) and brown participants (56.6%). Of the total, most children were fed mixed, using a cup; did not have allergic rhinitis, adenopathies, snoring or nocturnal drooling; 64.8% did not have non-nutritive habits; and among the chewing habits, onychophagia was the most common (53.3%). Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between non-nutritive habits and the occurrence of malocclusions.
