Intraoral wear of PICN CAD-CAM composite restorations used in severe tooth wear treatment: 5-year results of a prospective clinical study using 3D profilometry. Dent Mater 2024; 40:1056-1063. [PMID: 38762399 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.05.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate, in a prospective clinical study over 5 years with ex vivo 3D profilometry analyses, the intraoral wear of Polymer-Infiltrated Ceramic Network (PICN) CAD-CAM composite restorations used in severe tooth wear treatment with the One-Step No-Prep technique. METHODS 192 PICN (Vita Enamic) restorations on molars and premolars were included in a prospective clinical study involving patients treated according to the One-step No-prep protocol (n = 7). All patients showed clinical signs of bruxism. Replicas of restorations on molars and premolars were realized at each evaluation time (baseline and then every year up to 5 years) and scanned to perform 3D profilometry. Baseline and recall scans were superimposed with Geomagic Control software. The mean material wear was calculated for the full occlusal area (FOA) and for the occlusal contact area (OCA), respectively. Clinical evaluation of restorations was performed at recall. RESULTS At 5 years, the estimated mean material wear for FOA was inferior to the accuracy threshold of the profilometry measurement chain. For OCA, the estimated mean wear of the material was - 27.97 µm. This material wear was shown to be significantly influenced by time (p < 0.0001) and patient (p = 0.026), while the type of tooth (molar or premolar) had no influence. At 5 years, the survival and the success rates of restorations were 99.48% and 90.62%, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE The PICN material exhibits a low wear process in the treatment of severe tooth wear despite the presence of clinical signs of bruxism, and it constitutes a suitable material for the One-step No-prep technique.

[PMID: 35820843 PMCID: PMC9275066 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-022-02322-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Despite many advances in dentistry, no objective and quantitative method is available to evaluate gingival shape. The surface curvature of the optical scans represents an unexploited possibility. The present study aimed to test surface curvature estimation of intraoral scans for objective evaluation of gingival shape. Methods The method consists of four main steps, i.e., optical scanning, surface curvature estimation, region of interest (ROI) definition, and gingival shape analysis. Six different curvature measures and three different diameters were tested for surface curvature estimation on central (n = 78) and interdental ROI (n = 88) of patients with advanced periodontitis to quantify gingiva with a novel gingival shape parameter (GS). The reproducibility was evaluated by repeating the method on two consecutive intraoral scans obtained with a scan-rescan process of the same patient at the same time point (n = 8). Results Minimum and mean curvature measures computed at 2 mm diameter seem optimal GS to quantify shape at central and interdental ROI, respectively. The mean (and standard deviation) of the GS was 0.33 ± 0.07 and 0.19 ± 0.09 for central ROI using minimum, and interdental ROI using mean curvature measure, respectively, computed at a diameter of 2 mm. The method’s reproducibility evaluated on scan-rescan models for the above-mentioned ROI and curvature measures was 0.02 and 0.01, respectively. Conclusions Surface curvature estimation of the intraoral optical scans presents a precise and highly reproducible method for the objective gingival shape quantification enabling the detection of subtle changes. A careful selection of parameters for surface curvature estimation and curvature measures is required.

Abstract
AIM To introduce and validate a computer-aided method for direct measurements and visualization of gingival margin (GM) changes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The method consists of five main steps: digital model acquisition, superimposition, computer-aided GM detection, distance calculation between the GM curves, and visualization. The precision of the method was evaluated with repeatability and reproducibility analysis (n = 78 teeth). The method's repeatability was evaluated by repeating the algorithm on the same digital models by two operators. The reproducibility was evaluated by repeating the algorithm on two consecutive digital models obtained with a scan-rescan process at the same time point on the same patient. For demonstration, the proposed method for direct measurements of GM changes was performed on patients who had undergone root coverage procedures and treatment of periodontal disease. RESULTS Excellent repeatability was found for both intra- and inter-operator variability, that is, 0.00 mm, regarding computer-aided GM detection. The reproducibility of computer-aided GM detection evaluated on scan-rescan models was 0.10 mm. CONCLUSIONS The presented method enables the evaluation of GM changes in a simple, precise, and comprehensive manner through non-invasive acquisition and superimposition of digital models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis are two biologically linked diseases that often coexist in complex interaction. While periodontitis may lead to insulin receptor desensitization, diabetes may increase the expression of inflammatory cytokines, such as Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) and Interleukin 6 (IL-6), in the gingival crevicular fluid and activate osteoclasts via Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANK-L) production, leading to bone resorption. However, the association between the two diseases processes, where one may exacerbate the progression of the other, is unclear. In addition, both diseases have similar mechanistic themes, such as chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. This review aimed to investigate the pathophysiological and molecular mechanisms underlying T2DM and periodontitis. HIGHLIGHT Uncontrolled diabetes is often associated with severe periodontitis, measured by clinical attachment loss. Alteration in the oral microbiome composition, which may activate the host inflammatory response and lead to irreversible oxidative stress, is a common finding in both diseases. An understanding of the molecular crosstalk between the two disease processes is crucial for developing therapeutic targets that inhibit bone resorption and halt the progression of periodontitis in patients with diabetes. CONCLUSION The Oral microbiome composition in T2DM and periodontitis shifts toward dysbiosis, favoring bacterial pathogens, such as Fusobacteria and Porphyromonas species. Both conditions are marked by pro-inflammatory immune activity via the activation of Interleukin 17 (IL-17), Interleukin 1 (IL-1), TNF-α, and Nuclear Factor Kappa Beta (NF-κB). Common molecular crosstalk signaling appears to involve advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and oxidative stress. Thus, future drug targets are multifactorial, ranging from modulatory of host inflammatory response to preventing the accumulation of AGEs and oxidative free radicals.

A proof of concept study to confirm the suitability of an intra oral scanner to record oral images for the non-invasive assessment of gingival inflammation. J Dent 2021; 105:103579. [PMID: 33417977 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2020.103579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Revised: 12/28/2020] [Accepted: 12/29/2020] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare gingival inflammation scores obtained chairside using the non-invasive modified gingival index (MGI) with MGI scores from an intraoral scan (IOS) captured at the clinical visit but viewed 10 days later. METHODS Single visit, anterior teeth, observational, proof of concept study in healthy adult participants with a spectrum of gingival inflammation. One investigator performed both clinical and intraoral scan MGI assessments, a second repeated the MGI evaluation from the IOS. RESULTS 23 participants aged 18-72 yielded data for 552 gingival sites. There was agreement at 90 % of sites comparing clinical with IOS MGI scores. The commonest disagreements were MGI grade 0 read as 1 and 2 read as 3, the highest single probability of error occurring where a clinical score of 0 was scored 1 from the IOS: 0.118 and 0.129 for examiners 1 and 2 respectively. The second most common probability of error occurred where an IOS score of 3 was scored clinically as 2: 0.089 and 0.097 for examiners 1 and 2 respectively. MGI scores from the scans were similar for both examiners (91 % agreement), with no discrepancies of greater than 1 scale point. There was very close agreement between clinical MGI and IOS colour/texture scores. CONCLUSION This study conclusively demonstrated that the MGI score from the scanned image was very similar to the MGI scored clinically. This study confirms that a digital IOS accurately captures gingival contour images allowing a clinician to determine health or degree of gingival inflammation from it using MGI scores. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT This study confirms that IOS images of teeth and soft tissues are sufficiently accurate to allow the clinical evaluation of health or inflammatory gingival status using non-invasive indices. IOS has great potential for efficient and accurate data capture, for general practice and research facilitating remote evaluation and data verification.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinical gingival inflammation is a well-defined site-specific condition for which several measurement systems have been proposed and validated, and epidemiological studies consistently indicate its high prevalence globally. However, it is clear that defining and grading a gingival inflammatory condition at a site level (i.e. a "gingivitis site") is completely different from defining and grading a "gingivitis case" (GC) (i.e. a patient affected by gingivitis), and that a "gingivitis site" does not necessarily mean a "GC". The purpose of the present review is to summarize the evidence on clinical, biochemical, microbiologic, genetic markers as well as symptoms associated with plaque-induced gingivitis and to propose a set of criteria to define GC. IMPORTANCE A universally accepted case definition for gingivitis would provide the necessary information to enable oral health professionals to assess the effectiveness of their prevention strategies and treatment regimens; help set priorities for therapeutic actions/programs by health care providers; and undertake surveillance. FINDINGS Based on available methods to assess gingival inflammation, GC could be simply, objectively and accurately identified and graded using bleeding on probing score (BOP%) CONCLUSIONS: A patient with intact periodontium would be diagnosed as a GC according to a BOP score ≥ 10%, further classified as localized (BOP score ≥ 10% and ≤30%) or generalized (BOP score > 30%). The proposed classification may also apply to patients with a reduced periodontium, where a GC would characterize a patient with attachment loss and BOP score ≥ 10%, but without BOP in any site probing ≥4 mm in depth.

Clinical behavior of second-generation zirconia monolithic posterior restorations: Two-year results of a prospective study with Ex vivo analyses including patients with clinical signs of bruxism. J Dent 2019; 91:103229.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate (1) clinical outcomes of second-generation zirconia restorations, including patients with bruxism clinical signs, and (2) the material wear process. METHODS A total of 95 posterior monolithic zirconia tooth-elements in 45 patients were evaluated, 85 on implants and 10 on natural teeth, and 20.3% of restorations being fixed partial dentures (FPDs). Occlusal contact point areas were determined and half of those areas were left unglazed and just polished. Restorations were clinically evaluated following criteria of the World Dental Federation and antagonistic teeth were examined at each evaluation time. Wear ex vivo analyses using SEM and 3D laser profilometry were performed at baseline and after 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years respectively, temporarily removing the prostheses. RESULTS The Kaplan-Meier survival rate of restorations was 93.3% (100% for FPDs) and the success rate was 81.8%, with 4 abutment debondings, 3 tooth-supported crown debondings (provisional cement use), 1 restoration fracture, 1 minor chipping, 1 core fracture, 1 root fracture, and 2 implant losses. 80% of catastrophic failures occurred in patients with clinical signs of bruxism (61.7% of patients). Complications were also observed on antagonistic teeth (3 catastrophic failures). Clinical evaluation of the restorations showed good results from the aesthetic, functional, and biological perspective. Zirconia wear was inferior to 15 μm, while glaze wear was observed on all occlusal contact areas after 1 year. CONCLUSIONS Monolithic zirconia FPDs are promising but the failure rate of single-unit restorations was not as high as expected in this sample including patients with bruxism clinical signs. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Within study limitations, FPDs showed excellent short-term results but further research is needed for single-unit restorations considering samples, which do not exclude bruxers. The weak link is the restoration support or the antagonist tooth, one hypothesis being that zirconia stiffness and lack of resilience do not promote occlusal stress damping.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to systematically review the different methods used for wear measurement of dental tissues and materials in clinical studies, their relevance and reliability in terms of accuracy and precision, and the performance of the different steps of the workflow taken independently. METHODS An exhaustive search of clinical studies related to wear of dental tissues and materials reporting a quantitative measurement method was conducted. MedLine, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases were used. Prospective studies, pilot studies and case series (>10 patients), as long as they contained a description of wear measurement methodology. Only studies published after 1995 were considered. RESULTS After duplicates' removal, 495 studies were identified, and 41 remained for quantitative analysis. Thirty-four described wear-measurement protocols, using digital profilometry and superimposition, whereas 7 used alternative protocols. A specific form was designed to analyze the risk of bias. The methods were described in terms of material analyzed; study design; device used for surface acquisition; matching software details and settings; type of analysis (vertical height-loss measurement vs volume loss measurement); type of area investigated (entire occlusal area or selective areas); and results. SINIFICANCE There is a need of standardization of clinical wear measurement. Current methods exhibit accuracy, which is not sufficient to monitor wear of restorative materials and tooth tissues. Their performance could be improved, notably limiting the use of replicas, using standardized calibration procedures and positive controls, optimizing the settings of scanners and matching softwares, and taking into account unusable data.

Abstract
Hand swelling is one of the symptoms often seen in practice, but none of the available morphometric methods can quickly and efficiently quantify hand volume in an objective manner, and the current gold-standard volume measurement requires immersion in water, which can be difficult to use. Therefore, we aimed to analyze the accuracy of using 3-dimensional (3-D) scanning to measure hand volume. First, we compared the hand volume calculated using the 3-D scanner to that calculated from the conventional method among 109 volunteers to determine the reliability of 3-D measurements. We defined the beginning of the hand as the distal wrist crease, and 3-D forms of the hands were captured by the 3-D scanning system. Second, 238 volunteers (87 men, 151 women) with no disease or history of hand surgery underwent 3-D scanning. Data collected included age, height, weight, and shoe size. The wrist circumference (WC) and the distance between distal wrist crease and tip of middle finger (DDT) were measured. Statistical analyses were performed using linear regression to investigate the relationship between the hand volume and these parameters. In the first study, a significantly strong positive correlation was observed [R = 0.98] between the hand volume calculated via 3-D scanning and that calculated via the conventional method. In the second study, no significant differences between the volumes, WC or DDT of right and left hands were found. The correlations of hand volume with weight, WC, and DDT were strong. We created a formula to predict the hand volume using these parameters; these variables explained approximately 80% of the predicted volume. We confirmed that the new 3-D scanning method, which is performed without touching the hand and can record the form of the hand, yields an accurate volumetric analysis of an asymptomatic hand.

Abstract
Steric analysis of morphological changes is important for evaluation of surgical techniques. This study was performed to assess the measurement accuracy of alveolar soft tissue contour with a laboratory laser scanner. The width of the maxillary alveolar soft tissue contour was evaluated in 20 volunteers. Measurement sites were established in the alveolar soft tissue contour of the maxillary incisor and canine areas. Each site was evaluated by direct measurement with a microcaliper for each subject (DMM) and image measurement using a laboratory laser scanner (IMS). The accuracy of measurement methods was evaluated. Additionally, two plaster models obtained from the same subjects were scanned and superimposed, and the nonoverlapping areas were measured. Each measurement method exhibited a strong correlation (r = 0.89). The interclass correlation coefficient (single measure) between examiners was also high for each measurement method (PMM 0.978; IMS 0.997). In the superimposed images of the two plaster models, the distance of the nonoverlapping region was only 0.06 ± 0.08 mm in the labial aspect and 0.07 ± 0.09 mm in the palatal aspect. The image measurement of the scanning data shows high accuracy in evaluation of the alveolar soft tissue contour. This technique is useful for evaluation of chronological changes in the alveolar contour after soft and hard tissue augmentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Visible, near-infrared (optical) spectroscopy can be used to measure regional tissue hemodynamics and edema and therefore may represent an ideal tool with which to study periodontal inflammation in a noninvasive manner. The study objective was to evaluate the ability of optical spectroscopy to determine simultaneously multiple inflammatory indices (tissue oxygenation, total tissue hemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, oxygenated hemoglobin and tissue edema) in periodontal tissues in vivo. MATERIAL AND METHODS Spectra were obtained, processed and evaluated from healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis sites (n = 133) using a portable optical, near-infrared spectrometer. A modified Beer-Lambert unmixing model that incorporates a nonparametric scattering loss function was used to determine the relative contribution of each inflammatory component to the overall spectrum. RESULTS Optical spectroscopy was harnessed to generate complex inflammatory profiles of periodontal tissues. Tissue oxygenation at periodontitis sites was significantly decreased (p < 0.05) compared to sites with gingivitis and healthy controls. This was largely the result of an increase in deoxyhemoglobin in the periodontitis sites compared with healthy (p < 0.01) and gingivitis (p = 0.05) sites. Tissue water content per se showed no significant difference between the sites, but a water index associated with tissue electrolyte levels and temperature differed significantly between periodontitis sites and both healthy and gingivitis sites (p < 0.03). CONCLUSION This study established that optical spectroscopy can simultaneously determine multiple inflammatory indices directly in the periodontal tissues in vivo. Visible, near-infrared spectroscopy has the potential to be developed into a simple, reagent-free, user-friendly, chairside, site-specific, diagnostic and prognostic test for periodontitis.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the degree of disagreement of ultrasonic measurements of gingival thickness at different teeth. Gingival thickness was determined in 33 volunteers with plaque-induced gingivitis. Facial/buccal gingiva was measured at the level of the gingival sulcus depth. Measurements were repeated after 2 and 4 weeks. A repeated measures, two-level (occasion, subject), variance components model revealed a within-subject variance of 0.187 mm(2) resulting in a repeatability coefficient of 1.20 mm. When modeling level 1 (occasion) variance as a function of tooth type, respective error terms were used for calculating 95% repeatability coefficients for different teeth. Unreliable measurements were largely confined to upper and lower second and third molars. Error terms were lowest (0.03-0.05) at upper canines and first premolars as well as lower anterior teeth and premolars, where repeatability coefficients of 0.5 to 0.6 mm could be estimated. It was concluded that performance of the device was best at certain tooth types with rather thin gingiva. The present resolution and rather high degree of disagreement may preclude, however, detection of minute increases in thickness in the micrometer range, which seem to occur during gingivitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Distinct periodontal phenotypes have been identified by cluster analysis, which is an explorative method with very low external validity. The aim of the present study was to investigate variance components of facial gingival thickness in young adults with mild gingivitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-three non-smoking females, 18-23 years of age, with mild or moderate plaque-induced gingivitis participated. Gingival thickness was measured at every tooth present by use of ultrasound technology to the next 0.1 mm with a lowest measurement of 0.5 mm. Periodontal probing depth and clinical attachment level were measured with a pressure-controlled probe. Gingival bleeding index was assessed after probing on a 0-2 scale, where 1 was slight, and 2 was profuse bleeding on probing. The Silness-Loe plaque index was recorded. Multilevel variance components and random intercept models were built. RESULTS A 2-level (subject, tooth) variance component model of gingival thickness without any explanatory variable revealed an intercept (mean) of 0.93 +/- 0.02 mm. Subject variation of gingival thickness amounted to 4.2% of the total variance. Addition of tooth- and subject-related covariates to the model revealed, after adjusting for tooth type, an association with periodontal probing depth (estimated coefficient 0.067 +/- 0.025), and considerable association with average bleeding index (-0.395 +/- 0.149) and plaque index (0.125 +/- 0.048). Variation at the tooth level was drastically reduced; subject variation amounted to 5.2%. CONCLUSION Gingival thickness is mainly associated with tooth-related variables. Bleeding tendency is higher if gingiva is thin. Subject variability related to periodontal phenotype may add to the total variance, however, to a very low extent.

Abstract
A range of lasers is now available for use in dentistry. This paper summarizes key current and emerging applications for lasers in clinical practice. A major diagnostic application of low power lasers is the detection of caries, using fluorescence elicited from hydroxyapatite or from bacterial by-products. Laser fluorescence is an effective method for detecting and quantifying incipient occlusal and cervical carious lesions, and with further refinement could be used in the same manner for proximal lesions. Photoactivated dye techniques have been developed which use low power lasers to elicit a photochemical reaction. Photoactivated dye techniques can be used to disinfect root canals, periodontal pockets, cavity preparations and sites of peri-implantitis. Using similar principles, more powerful lasers can be used for photodynamic therapy in the treatment of malignancies of the oral mucosa. Laser-driven photochemical reactions can also be used for tooth whitening. In combination with fluoride, laser irradiation can improve the resistance of tooth structure to demineralization, and this application is of particular benefit for susceptible sites in high caries risk patients. Laser technology for caries removal, cavity preparation and soft tissue surgery is at a high state of refinement, having had several decades of development up to the present time. Used in conjunction with or as a replacement for traditional methods, it is expected that specific laser technologies will become an essential component of contemporary dental practice over the next decade.
