Objective: This study is focused on the identification of comprehensible radiographical and clinical features for the risk assessment of coronectomies in horizontally impacted mandibular third molars which require surgical treatment. A classification, based on a literature review and well-defined risk assessment algorithm, has been developed to streamline the decision-making process. Methods: A PubMed, OVID Medline and Google Scholar search for articles related to keywords such as “Coronectomy, Horizontal Impacted Third Molar, Coronectomy vs Extraction” has been performed. Results: Only horizontally impacted mandibular 3rd molars which required surgical intervention were included. The relationship of the apical portion of the roots with the IAN, evaluated on the CBCT, was used to classify the tooth as low, medium or high risk for extraction. If a tooth was classified as medium or high risk for total removal, it was further assessed and classified for coronectomy. According to a literature review and to our clinical judgement, 4 indicators can beidentified as relevant in the individual risk assessment related to coronectomy. Based on a cumulative point score, the indication for a coronectomy has been appraised as ‘low risk', ‘moderate risk' or 'high risk’. Conclusion: Horizontal impactions of lower third molars are not necessarily to be considered a contraindication for coronectomy. Our classification offers a guideline in the decision-making process on whether a coronectomy represents a viable treatment option for mandibular horizontally impacted third molars.

Background: The Prediction of extraction difficulty of impacted mandibular third molar (M3M) is extremely important for both patients and clinicians. Recently, many new difficulty-estimating indices had been proposed, among them are, Zhang et al., Kim et al., Pernambuco, Lainez et al., and Roy et al. indices. This study aimed to evaluate the validity of these new scales as preoperative predictors of the difficulty of surgical removal of impacted M3M. Material and Methods: The five scales under study predicted extraction difficulty of a series of 50-impacted M3M preoperatively, and postoperative difficulty was assessed with Parant scale (PS) and by the time required for surgery (TS). Results: The proposed indices had low to moderate sensitivity (21%-45%, 41%-67%) and variable in their specificity (21%-86%, 36%-85%). Only three out of five evaluated indices have shown a statistically significant correlation with both, the operation time and the surgical technique; namely, Zhang et al., Pernambuco, Lainez et al. indices. Conclusions: Zhang et al., Pernambuco, Lainez et al. indices can be used as preoperative predictors of the impacted M3M extraction difficulty.

Background and Overview: Nearly 6 million Americans suffer from heart failure (HF). For patients with advanced HF refractory to medical therapy, Orthotopic Heart Transplantation (OHT) is the therapy of choice, limited primarily by donor availability. A Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) can be used as a “bridge to transplant” while awaiting OHT, or as a “destination therapy”. These devices improve quality of life allowing patients to proceed with the activities of daily living independently, including presenting for routine dental care. There are few existing guidelines available for the care of these complex patients. The purpose of this study is to educate the clinician on the LVAD and to establish guidelines on the care of these patients. Case Description: A 55-year-old male suffering from HF secondary to nonischemic cardiomyopathy, a left ventricular ejection fraction of 15-20%, and severe mitral regurgitation underwent LVAD implantation as a bridge to OHT at NYU Langone Health (NYULH) in December 2017. In September of 2019 he was referred to NYU College of Dentistry for oral health clearance prior to OHT. Evaluation revealed localized chronic mild periodontitis, several teeth requiring endodontic treatment, and several non-restorable teeth requiring extraction to address potential odontogenic infections. Dental treatment was safely completed at the NYU College of Dentistry in cooperation with the patient’s LVAD coordinator for the purpose of receiving an OHT. Conclusions and Practical Implications: Dental patients with LVADs have specific needs due to their implanted cardiac device and their secondary underlying comorbidities. There are few published guidelines for the evaluation and care of the dental patient with an implanted LVAD. DHCP (dental healthcare professionals) should be aware of this cohort of patient as they may present themselves for routine or emergent care to the dental office. Management of the dental patient with an implanted VAD should be done through appropriate close interdisciplinary consultation and coordination.

Background: There are numerous risk factors associated with the development and progression of periodontal disease such as smoking, poor oral hygiene, and diabetes. Systemic inflammation has been proposed as a possible link between periodontitis and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although an association of periodontal disease and other systemic conditions has been established in literature, a correlation between periodontal disease and CKD is currently not well-established. Objective: The aim of this study is to assess whether there is a correlation between periodontal disease and impaired renal function. Methods: NHANES survey data from years 2011-2016 was used and all analyses were conducted using SAS9.4. Descriptive statistics were conducted for characteristics including age, gender, race/ethnicity, periodontal disease, advanced periodontal disease, and impaired renal function. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the association between periodontal disease and impaired renal function. Results: The results of this study show that there is an association between increasing age and impaired renal function. Specifically, participants aged 65 years and older had increased odds for impaired renal function with an OR of 3.89. The results of this study also showed increased odds for impaired renal function for participants that were Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic compared to non-Hispanic white with an odds ratio of 1.62 and 1.45 respectively. Participants who had advanced periodontal disease had increased odds for impaired renal function compared to participants who did not have advanced periodontal disease. Conclusion: Participants with advanced periodontal disease had increased odds for impaired renal function compared to participants who did not have advanced periodontal disease. Further research is needed to determine a direct correlation and whether there are positive clinical effects of non-surgical periodontal therapy in improving outcomes in patients with CKD.

Background: Bruxism is defined as a repetitive activity of the masticatory muscles characterized by teeth clenching or teeth grinding or by tapping and moving the jaw. Patients with bruxism may experience symptoms of jaw muscle pain or attrition of teeth. An occlusal splint is a removable appliance that is made in accordance with the occlusal and incisal surfaces of the teeth in one of the opposing jaw arches. The mechanism of the occlusal splint in reducing bruxism is muscle relaxation, to break the habit in patients with increasing intensity of bruxism and reduce the tooth wear. Aim: The aim of writing this article is to find out the effectiveness of the use of occlusals plints in child bruxism cases. Mini-Review: This Literature review was compiled by collecting, identifying, evaluating, and analyzing the journals PubMed, Wiley, Science Direct, and manual searches during the publication time period 2011 to 2021 regarding the effectiveness of using an occlusal splint to treat cases of bruxism in children. From 261 journal articles obtained in the initial search, 6 full-text journals were found that met the criteria and were carried out. Conclusion: The occlusal splint is effective to overcome cases of bruxism in children.

The oral rehabilitation with implant supported prosthesis it is challenging in areas where there is not enough thickness. This is the case of atrophies in the maxilla or mandible in edentulous patients. To achieve a satisfactory bone volume that allows the installation of implants, several techniques can be performed. This report presents the case of a 55-year-old female patient with insufficient bone thickness between the maxillary canines, but with a satisfactory height for implant placement. The Split crest technique was per-formed, taking advantage of the bone height and the medullary portion in the region, al-lowing the immediate installation of implants with bone graft. The postoperative period was uneventful and at 6 months it was possible to install the provisional crowns. Therefore, it is concluded that the Split crest technique is predictable and allows safe oral rehabilitation.

Background: Anterior Open Bite (AOB) is a malocclusion condition characterized by the absence of contact between the upper and lower anterior teeth, resulting from oral bad habits for a long time or abnormalities in skeletal patterns. AOB leads a lack of confidence in children because of the difficulty for lip sealing and the unclear pronunciation function. AOB occurs in children and continues into adulthood so it needs to be treated early on at the age of growth and development. One method of treating AOB is Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) which is a method to improve the stability of the stomatognatic system by involving the exercise of the facial and neck muscles. Aim: Literature Review (LR) writing aims to find out the effectiveness of OMT in the case of AOB children, how the treatment is carried out and the problems that occur during OMT. Mini-Review: OMT increases the activity of the masseter and buccinator muscles, and decreases the contraction of the lip muscles that the lips may seal. OMT is able to increase the ability to hold the tongue to stay in contact with the palate so there is no obstacle to the eruption of the lower insisivus tooth and AOB can be corrected. Results: Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) is effective for the correction of a child's Anterior Open Bite (AOB) as a combination therapy with the use of orthodontic tools or myofunctional equipment, especially in children older than 12 years of age and craniofacial deformity has occurred.

One method of treating AOB is Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) which is a method to improve the stability of the stomatognatic system by involving the exercise of the facial and neck muscles.\u0000\u0000Aim: Literature Review (LR) writing aims to find out the effectiveness of OMT in the case of AOB children, how the treatment is carried out and the problems that occur during OMT.\u0000\u0000Mini-Review: OMT increases the activity of the masseter and buccinator muscles, and decreases the contraction of the lip muscles that the lips may seal. OMT is able to increase the ability to hold the tongue to stay in contact with the palate so there is no obstacle to the eruption of the lower insisivus tooth and AOB can be corrected. Results: Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) is effective for the correction of a child's Anterior Open Bite (AOB) as a combination therapy with the use of orthodontic tools or myofunctional equipment, especially in children older than 12 years of age and craniofacial deformity has occurred.","PeriodicalId":92922,"journal":{"name":"Journal of dentistry and oral sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46582985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
