Book Variation in Maxillary and Mandibular Incisor and Molar Position with Long  Normal and Short Lower Anterior Face Height

Download or read book Variation in Maxillary and Mandibular Incisor and Molar Position with Long Normal and Short Lower Anterior Face Height written by Brian Nathaniel Laski and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background. The intraoral findings of patients presenting with differing lower anterior face heights are variable.Methods. Upper anterior face height over lower anterior face height ratios were established from 111 pretreatment iCATRTM CBCT scans and analyzed with AMIRARTM imaging software. Maxillary and mandibular central incisor and first molar vertical heights and buccolingual inclinations were measured relative to fixed reference planes. Mean differences between the groups were assessed using an analysis of variance.Results. Clinically significant differences in dentoalveolar heights, but not buccolingual inclinations, between the face height groups were found.Conclusions. Face height and dentoalveolar position can be determined using CBCT image data. Vertical height, not buccolingual inclination, is associated with differences in lower anterior face height.Objective. To analyze the pre-treatment cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) records of orthodontic patients for determination of dentoalveolar positional differences in subjects classified into three groups: long, normal and short lower anterior face height.

Book excerpt: This book is designed to serve as an up-to-date reference on the use of cone-beam computed tomography for the purpose of 3D imaging of the craniofacial complex. The focus is in particular on the ways in which craniofacial 3D imaging changes how we think about conventional diagnosis and treatment planning and on its clinical applications within orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. Emphasis is placed on the value of 3D imaging in visualizing the limits of the alveolar bone, the airways, and the temporomandibular joints and the consequences for treatment planning and execution. The book will equip readers with the knowledge required in order to apply and interpret 3D imaging to the benefit of patients. All of the authors have been carefully selected on the basis of their expertise in the field. In describing current thinking on the merits of 3D craniofacial imaging, they draw both on the available scientific literature and on their own translational research findings.

Book Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Orthodontics

Download or read book Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Orthodontics written by Sunil D. Kapila and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-08-29 with total page 880 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its introduction to dentistry, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has undergone a rapid evolution and considerable integration into orthodontics. However, despite the increasing popularity of CBCT and progress in applying it to clinical orthodontics, the profession has lacked a cohesive, comprehensive and objective reference that provides clinicians with the background needed to utilize this technology optimally for treating their patients. Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Orthodontics provides timely, impartial, and state-of-the-art information on the indications and protocols for CBCT imaging in orthodontics, clinical insights gained from these images, and innovations driven by these insights. As such, it is the most current and authoritative textbook on CBCT in orthodontics. Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Orthodontics is organized to progress sequentially through specific topics so as to build the knowledgebase logically in this important and rapidly evolving field. Part I provides the foundational information on CBCT technology, including radiation exposure and risks, and future evolutions in computed tomography. Part II presents the Principles and Protocols for CBCT Imaging in Orthodontics, focusing on developing evidence-based criteria for CBCT imaging, the medico-legal implications of CBCT to the professional and the protocols and integration of this technology in orthodontic practice. Part III provides critical information on CBCT-based Diagnosis and Treatment Planning that includes how to interpret CBCT scans, identify incidental pathologies and the possible other uses of this technology. Part IV covers practical aspects of CBCT’s Clinical Applications and Treatment Outcomes that encompasses a range of topics, including root morphology and position, treatment of impacted teeth, virtual surgical treatment planning and outcomes, and more.

Book Evaluation of Maxillary Molar Furcations  Clinical Measurements Versus Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Download or read book Evaluation of Maxillary Molar Furcations Clinical Measurements Versus Cone Beam Computed Tomography written by Jessica Allen (M.S.) and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACKGROUND: The use of three-dimensional imaging has shown to provide advantages to the clinician in assessing bone morphology. The aim of this study will be to compare the diagnostic efficacy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) versus diagnostic clinical measurements in patients presenting with furcation involved maxillary first molars. METHODS: The study population included 20 patients with 34 maxillary first molar teeth with furcation involvement. Clinical horizontal and vertical probing measurements were compared to CBCT measurements taken by two calibrated examiners. RESULTS: Horizontal measurements showed a significant difference between Glickman class II and class III. There were no statistical significant differences with the horizontal measurements between clinical probing, bone sounding and CBCT measurements. CBCT vertical measurements were statistically greater than clinical probing measurements. CONCLUSION: The CBCT can provide similar horizontal measurements to standard clinical horizontal probing measurements and will provide a greater vertical dimension of a furcation defect to standard vertical probing measurements.

Book Tomographic Evaluation of Mandibular Molar Alveolar Bone for Immediate Implant Placement U00f1 A Retrospective Cross Sectional Study

Download or read book Tomographic Evaluation of Mandibular Molar Alveolar Bone for Immediate Implant Placement U00f1 A Retrospective Cross Sectional Study written by Vinayak Umesh Shirsekar and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IntroductionTraditional dental implant practice dictates a healing period after tooth extraction, and a second procedure, to place the implants. With the advent of immediate implant placement protocol, fewer surgical procedures and a reduced treatment period was achieved. For immediate implant placement in the mandibular molar region, the quantity of the interradicular bone (IRB), limiting structures like the inferior alveolar nerve and dimensions of the socket affect the overall success rate.AimThe aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the alveolar dimensions of the mandibular first molar using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for prospective immediate implant placement.Materials and MethodThe material for this retrospective study comprised of CBCT images taken using the same scanning machine (Galileosu00ae, Sirona, Germany) with a standardized patient positioning and exposure factors (0.4 mm Voxel, 120 kVp, 3u20138 mA). The following measurements were done for the permanent mandibular first molar for prospective immediate implant placement u2013 1) The width of buccal (WB) and lingual (WL) bone 2mm apical from the crest 2) The distance from the inferior alveolar nerve to the furcation (IAN-F) in the mid slice 3) The distance from the inferior alveolar nerve to the apex of the mesial (IAN-M) and distal (IAN-D) root 4) The mesio-distal (MD) and bucco-lingual (BL) socket size at the crest level 5) The width of the IRB 2mm (IRB2) and 4mm (IRB4) apical to the furcation, and at the root apex (IRBA) between the mesial and distal root. Descriptive statistical analysis of all data was done at alpha 0.05 (95% confidence intervals).ResultsThe CBCT images of 200 permanent mandibular first molars from 126 patients (83 males, 43 females; mean age 44.2 years) were evaluated. The MD and BL socket size at the crest was 8.77mm and 7.76mm respectively. The WB and WL, that determines the bone fill in the socket, averaged at 0.91mm and 2.92mm respectively, showing a statistically significant difference (p = 0.003). Among the scans evaluated, 48% had WB values 0.5mm. The IRB of the mandibular first molar, which influences the primary stability of the immediate implant, had a mean dimension of 2.12mm, 2.63mm and 4.35mm at IRB2, IRB4 and IRBA respectively. Only 18% of the subjects had an average IRB value 4mm. The IAN-F value averaged at 13.82mm, while the IAN-M and IAN-D values were 4.31mm and 4.61mm respectively, showing no significant difference (p = 0.15). Only 3% of the study population had IAN-F values

Book 3D Diagnosis and Treatment Planning in Orthodontics

Download or read book 3D Diagnosis and Treatment Planning in Orthodontics written by Jean-Marc Retrouvey and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated book is a wide-ranging guide to modern diagnostics and treatment planning in orthodontics, which are mandatory prior to the initiation of any type of comprehensive treatment. The importance of three-dimensional (3D) imaging techniques has been increasingly recognized owing to the shortcomings of conventional two-dimensional imaging in some patients, such as those requiring complex adult treatment and those with temporomandibular joint dysfunctions or sleep disturbances. In the first part of this book, readers will find clear description and illustration of the diagnostic role of the latest 3D imaging techniques, including cone beam computed tomography, intra-oral scanning, and magnetic resonance imaging. The second part explains in detail the application of 3D techniques in treatment planning for orthodontic and orthognathic surgery. Guidance is also provided on the use of image fusion software for the purposes of accurate diagnosis and precise design of the most appropriate biomechanical approach in patients with malocclusions.

Book Glossary of Orthodontic Terms

Download or read book Glossary of Orthodontic Terms written by John Daskalogiannakis and published by Quintessence Publishing (IL). This book was released on 2000 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daskalogiannakis (orthodontics and oral biology, U. of Nymegen, The Netherlands) offers a reference to material that orthodontic residents are likely to encounter during their postgraduate education and/or preparation for Board examinations. He suggests that it might also help undergraduates familiarize themselves with the terminology, serve as an update for orthodontists and general dentists, and provide help to allied professionals who collaborate with orthodontists. Cross- references are largely restricted to alternative names, and no index alleviates the neglect. There are no pronunciation guides to wrap those pretty pearlies around. c. Book News Inc.
