Abstract:

In today's world of technological digital dentistry, many efforts are done so that the esthetic cases are planned and executed in predictable ways. In this case, 3 Dimensional smile design using face scans, intra oral scans was done to the patient to do proper analysis of the existing dentogingival situation, also merging with CBCT data gave us the accurate soft tissue & bone levels with lip roll technique, then 3D waxup was done to the new desired gingival heights and 3D printing of the model from which a crown lengthening guide was fabricated to assist the Laser osseous & soft tissue crown lengthening procedure which helped produce with accuracy the digital design of hard and soft tissue architecture in the patient's mouth. Finally, preparation was done using the mockup as guide and final delivery of esthetic pleasing accurate and true to design smile.

Abstract:

Different pretreatment methods have been investigated with the intention of enhancing the effectiveness of etching enamel surface and improving sealant retention,and the tight micromenhanical adhesion to enamel surface essential for their success. However, to the date there has not been a gold standard for cleaning pits and fissures prior to the application of etchant and sealant. A report from American Dental Association Council on Scientific Affairs stated: There is limited evidence in favor of using air abrasion as a cleaning method before acid etchnig to improve sealant retention. Objectives: Audience will have a better understanding on current sealant recommendation,they will gain knowledge of different fissure pretreatment methods and be able to place sealants using different fissure pretreatment methods.

Abstract:

Ultimately, it is the host’s reaction to the presence of bacteria that mediates tissue destruction”. Thus, the concept of hostmodulation- therapy (HMT) as an adjunct to traditional periodontal treatment, to reduce host-derived pro-inflammatory mediators and suppress tissue-destructive enzymes, was introduced 25 years ago. As a “Founding” contributor to this concept, Golub et al discovered that tetracyclines (TCs), unexpectedly, can inhibit tissue (including bone)-destructive matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and by a mechanism unrelated to their antibacterial properties. They then developed NON antibacterial tetracyclines (e.g., subantimicrobial-dose doxycycline; SDD) as HMT drugs to treat periodontitis and other inflammatory diseases. Two formulations have received international government approval (e.g., FDA) including: (1) Periostat, the first systemic HMT medication for the management of periodontitis; and (2) Oracea, for the treatment of chronic inflammatory skin disease. Subsequently, a series of chemically modified NON-antibacterial TCs (CMTs) were developed which enhanced their MMP-inhibiting properties. One of these, CMT-3, has been tested in patients with the cancer, Kaposi’s sarcoma, and as a potential treatment for a fatal lung disease, acute respiratory distress syndrome. In addition, clinical studies demonstrated safety and efficacy of SDD formulations in oral inflammatory diseases (periodontitis, pemphigoid) and various medical diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, post-menopausal osteopenia and type-II diabetes). Recently, our lab has developed additional MMP-inhibitor drugs, the chemically-modified curcumins. This presentation will highlight the proven clinical efficacy of HMTs for periodontitis and their benefits for systemic health.

Abstract:

During the last decade, the demand for cosmetic services has increased considerably in many parts of the world. Several medical specialties providing cosmetic services have witnessed increases in procedures that enhance physical traits, reverse the effects of aging, and improve esthetics. Cosmetic surgical procedures, the use of botulinum toxin type A and dermal fillers, dental bleaching, and other dental cosmetic procedures are widely requested by adults. An undeniable psycho- logical benefit of cosmetic procedures is the increase in self-esteem. In turn, improvement in self-esteem changes the scope of several of these cosmetic procedures to another level: therapeutic. In orthodontics, facial esthetics are enhanced in several conventional ways; the 2 primary ones are alignment of the dentition and balancing of the patient’s profile. Additionally, measures to improve the smile are often-sought procedures. In particular, those with a “gummy smile,” so called due to excessive display of gingival tissue in the maxilla on smiling, can be self-conscious, embarrassed, or even psychologically affected, and thus seek intervention.
