Book excerpt: Background: In patients with extreme alveolar ridge atrophy, where mandibular height is less than 10 mm, it is challenging to achieve stable and well functioning complete denture. In such cases itu2019s not possible to insert standard size or even short dental implants without complicated bone augmentation procedures. Due to small width of MDIs, patients do not need demanding surgical procedures and hence are well accepted by elderly patients or those with deteriorating general health status.Aim: Aim was to test the behavior of dental implants being both, slim and short (short MDIs) for complete overdenture (OD) retention by digital image correlation (DIC), and afterward, in clinical trial, to rehabilitate patients with less than 10 mm of mandibular height by means short MDIs OD retention. Materials and Methods: Based on CBCT scans of patients with extremely atrophied mandible (interforaminal height 10 mm), 6 models of an average extremely atrophied mandible were virtually built and 3D printed. In each model 4 short MDIs (length 6, 8 or 10 mm, width 2 or 2.5 mm; Dentium, South Korea) were inserted interforaminally and CoCr reinforced ODs were loaded with 150 N on denture molar region bilaterally,unilaterally and the on anterior region. Precise measurement of strain and displacement was conducted using the Digital Image Correlation Method (ARAMIS software v6.2.0; GOM-Optical Measuring Techniques), which approved the protocol. Patients (D or E classification according to Leckholm and Zarb) received 4 short MDIs by a flapless surgical technique. MDIs were early loaded using matrices with O-rings mounted in mandibular ODs. Marginal bone loss (MBL), technical complications, OHIP-EDENT and the chewing function questionnaire(CFQ) were assessed prior treatment, after OD delivery and after 2-years in function.Results: Strain values on all models ranged from 0.45% to 0,92% with the highest displacement and strain values observed around MDIs and on the zone of bone-denture contact. Analysis of the major strain fields demonstrated that the strains of the mandibular bone were the result of vertical displacements of the ODs. DIC showed in all loading stages identical spreading direction with the maximum strain value within the denture-bone complex. In clinical trial 20 patients received 4 short MDIs and respective ODs. Two implants fractured during insertion and 4 failed after placement. All other implants were stable, without biological complications. MBL was 0.26 u00b1 0.35 mm with 95% survival rate and 8 O-ring replacements. The OHIP-EDENT and the CFQ scores significantly decreased after treatment (p.05) and did not change significantly through the 2-years of observation (p>.05).Conclusions: DIC is a novel method in dentistry providing high precision and accurate repeatability. Measurements on 3D printed models demonstrated low strain and displacement values around short MDIs and in mandible, which enabled proceeding with clinical trials. Within the limitations of this study, insertion of 4 short MDIs (length 6 or 8 mm) in extremely atrophied mandibles for retention of mandibular ODs showed encouraging results in the first two years of function.

Download or read book Dental Composite Materials for Direct Restorations written by Vesna Miletic and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers both basic scientific and clinically relevant aspects of dental composite materials with a view to meeting the needs of researchers and practitioners. Following an introduction on their development, the composition of contemporary composites is analyzed. A chapter on polymerization explains the setting reactions and light sources available for light-cured composites. The quality of monomer-to-polymer conversion is a key factor for material properties. Polymerization shrinkage along with the associated stress remains among the most challenging issues regarding composite restorations. A new classification of dental composites is proposed to offer more clinically relevant ways of differentiating between commercially available materials. A review of specific types of composites provides an insight into their key issues. The potential biological issues of dental composites are reviewed in chapters on elution of leachable substances and cariogenicity of resin monomers. Clinical sections focus on material placement, finishing procedures, and the esthetics and clinical longevity of composite restorations. Bonding to tooth tissues is addressed in a separate chapter, as is the efficiency of various composite repair methods. The final chapter discusses future perspectives on dental composite materials.
