Estimating the 3-D location of impacted maxillary canines: A CBCT-based analysis of severity of impaction.

The objective of the study was to quantify the 3-D location of impacted canines by measuring their linear and angular deviations in relation to adjacent structures and further evaluate impaction severity. CBCT images of 314 impacted canines were analysed in the sagittal, coronal and axial planes. Linear and angular measurements were recorded. Canine inclination was identified in coronal and sagittal planes. An evaluation system was constructed for analysis. Upright canine was considered as the appropriate position for fully erupted maxillary canine. Outcomes were compared between right and left sides and by gender. For categorical variables, chi-square tests were used while Mann-Whitney U test was used for continuous variables. Regression models were used to measure severity. Impactions were greater in females (119/207; 57.5%). No significant differences between unilateral (100/207; 49.3%) and bilateral (107/207; 51.7%) (P> 0.05). Out of 314 impactions, 105 (33.4%) were mild, 118 (37.58%) moderate and 91 (28.98%) severe. Severe impactions were primarily buccal (44/ 91; 48.3%), in the occlusal ½ of the adjacent incisor root (38/ 91, 41.7%), mesial to the distal border of central incisor (47/91, 51.6%), with sagittal angle value + >45 ̊ (46/ 91, 50.5%) and mesial tip + >30 ̊ (86/ 91, 94.5%). Severely impacted canines had their crowns buccal, closer to occlusal plane and mesial to the distal border of the central incisor with greater than 45-degree buccal inclination and greater than 30-degree mesial tip. The sagittal angle can have a significant impact on the severity of impaction. A new classification system was proposed to quantify severity.

The relationship between local alveolar bone housing and size of canine in maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition: A retrospective cone-beam computed tomography–based study

This study aimed to use 3-dimensional data to analyze the relationship between local alveolar bone housing and canine size in maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition. Cone-beam computed tomography study data from 31 patients with maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition were imported into Dolphin Imaging software (version 11.8; Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions, Chatsworth, Calif) for measurement. The buccal and palatal alveolar thickness of lateral incisor roots at different heights, the maximal thickness of displaced canine, and canine height were measured. Alveolar height-thickness variation curves at the lateral incisor region and maximal thickness of displaced canine were plotted to calculate the appropriate theoretical minimum alveolar heights of total alveolar housing, buccal alveolar housing after concentrating the bone buccally (TMAH-B1), and original buccal alveolar housing (TMAH-B2) required for correcting the transposition of 2 teeth. Canines could only be moved distally above lateral incisors in 5 patients. The mean value of theoretical minimum alveolar heights of total alveolar housing was 14.57 ± 1.75 mm. It was possible to reposition canines distally by concentrating the alveolar bone buccally in the remaining 26 patients. The mean value of TMAH-B1 was 10.86 ± 3.70 mm. Canines could be repositioned distally directly over the buccal aspect of the lateral incisor in 17 patients. The mean value of TMAH-B2 was 9.30 ± 2.35 mm. Canine height was greater than TMAH-B1 in 18 patients; however, only 10 patients were greater than TMAH-B2. Correction of transposition was difficult in some patients because of the lack of alveolar bone housing. Repositioning was possible when the height of the canine was higher than a certain height. An accurate assessment of the relationship between alveolar housing and tooth size is recommended.

Intraradicular fiberglass posts: comparison among different techniques for restoring flared roots

This in vitro study aimed to analyze the fracture strength and failure pattern of flared bovine roots restored with different intraradicular fiber posts and core materials, without a ferrule. To conduct this study fifty bovine incisor roots were treated endodontically, and divided into five groups (n=10), according to the following fiber post techniques and core materials: prefabricated fiberglass post and full-body bulk-fill resin composite (PF-BF); prefabricated fiberglass post and dual function resin cement (PF-RC); direct anatomic post and full-body bulk-fill resin composite (AP-BF); CAD-CAM integrated fiberglass post-and-core (CAD-PC); and adjustable fiberglass post and full-body bulk-fill resin composite (AD-BF). Intraradicular fiber posts were cemented with dual functional resin cement (Allcem Core, FGM), restored with CAD-CAM composite crowns (Brava, FGM), and subjected to loading. The data were analyzed by generalized linear models (p <0.05). It was revealed that AP-BF presented lower fracture strength values compared with PF-RC (p=0.006) and AD-BF (p=0.013). Fractures involving the apical third only in CAD-PC. PF-RC presented only failure patterns involving the core restoration or were limited to the cervical third. PF-RC and AD-BF presented higher failure patterns limited to the core restoration, compared with other groups (60% and 50% respectively). Fractures involving the middle third were observed in the PF-BF, AP-BF, CAD-PC, and AD-BF groups. In conclusion, most of the intraradicular fiber post techniques used, and different core materials presented similar fracture strength values. CAD-CAM integrated fiberglass post-and-core presented more fractures involving the middle and apical thirds than the other groups.

Treatment of maxillary lateral incisor-canine pseudotransposition: A case report

The term transposition is used to refer to an interchange in the position of 2 adjacent teeth within the same quadrant of the dental arch.In complete transposition, both the crowns and the entire root structures of the involved teeth are found parallel in their transposed positions. In incomplete transposition (also called “pseudo” or “partial” transposition) the crowns may be transposed while the root apices remain in their normal positions. Unilateral transposition has been reported more often than bilateral transposition, with the left side being somewhat more frequently involved than the right side. The only dental anomaly that has an apparent association with maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition is increased third molar agenesis.Treatment of maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition depends on many factors like the condition of the root of central incisors, shape of lateral incisors, need of extraction because of either severe crowding or profile improvement, etc. Here, we are going to present the management of a rare case report of maxillary right lateral incisor-canine pseudotransposition with minimum available space and agenesis of mandibular third molars.

Lateral Incisor Root Resorption: A Consequence of Ectopic Maxillary Canine Teeth

Root resorption of permanent teeth is a recognized complication of ectopic maxillary permanent canines. This type of resorption is sometimes missed and can be diagnosed at the late presentation stage. Treatment of external resorption is complex and can require extraction of the affected tooth. This review provides an insight into the current evidence and guidance related to the interceptive treatment of displaced permanent maxillary canines to minimize the risk of resorption of adjacent teeth. Supported by two clinical cases, it looks into treatment options and long-term management of lateral incisors with external root resorption of varying severities. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Primary care practitioners are best placed to recognize displaced maxillary permanent canines in a timely manner, and so, root resorption of adjacent teeth may be prevented.

Risk assessment of external apical root resorption associated with orthodontic treatment using computed tomography texture analysis.

This study aimed to quantitatively assess maxillary central incisor roots using pre-orthodontics computed tomography (CT) texture analysis as part of a radiomics quantitative analysis. This retrospective case-control study included 16 patients with external apical root resorption (EARR) and 16 age- and sex-matched patients without EARR, after orthodontic treatment who underwent pre-orthodontics CT for jaw deformities. All patients were treated with a fixed orthodontic appliance before and after surgical orthodontic treatment. EARR was defined as root resorption ≥ 2mm of the left and right maxillary central incisors on CT images more than 2years after the start of orthodontic treatment. Texture features of the maxillary central incisor with and without EARR after orthodontic treatment were analyzed using the open-access software, MaZda Ver. 3.3. Ten texture features were selected using the Fisher method in MaZda from 279 original parameters, which were calculated for each of the maxillary central incisors with and without EARR. The results were tested using the Student's t test, Welch's t test, or Mann-Whitney U test. Four gray-level run length matrix features and six gray-level co-occurrence matrix features displayed significant differences between both the groups (p < 0.01). CT texture analysis was able to quantitatively assess maxillary central incisor roots and distinguish between maxillary central incisor roots with and without EARR. CT texture analysis may be a useful method for predicting EARR after orthodontic treatment.

The biomechanical significance of the elongated rodent incisor root in the mandible during incision

Rodents are characterised by a distinctive masticatory apparatus which includes a single pair of enlarged and continually growing incisors. This morphology, termed diprotodonty, has also independently evolved in a number of other mammals, including the aye-aye. This study examined the functional significance of the internal “root” of the elongated rodent-like incisor. The mandibles of four rodents and an aye-aye were modelled to exhibit incrementally shorter incisor roots. Finite element analysis was used to predict stress and strain patterns across the jaw to determine whether the length of the incisor root contributes to the resistance of mechanical forces encountered in the mandible during incision. It was found that von Mises stresses increase in the region of the mandible local to where the incisor is removed, but that the stress distribution across the wider mandible is only minimally affected. Thus, the long internal incisor appears to play a small role in resisting bending forces close to the incisor alveolus, and may act with the arch-like mandibular shape to strengthen the mandible in this region. However, the impact across the whole mandible is relatively limited, suggesting the highly elongate incisor in diprotodont mammals may be principally driven by other factors such as rapid incisor wear.

To Compare the Stress Magnitude on Roots of Mandibular Incisors at Different Inclinations With Different Arch Wires During Intrusion Mechanics—A Fem Study

Introduction: Force is applied through brackets in fixed mechanotherapy which generates stress in periodontal ligament and root of the teeth and is difficult to measure directly. Finite element analysis is used as a solution for understanding this biomechanical response. So the aims and objectives of this study were to evaluate the stress magnitude induced in the labial and lingual surface of mandibular incisors using superelastic NiTi arch wires of different cross-section at different inclination through finite element analysis. Materials and Methods: Finite element model of all mandibular teeth including periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, buccal tubes, brackets, and arch wire were constructed using mechanical elastic properties of the materials. Three different NiTi arch wires, round (0.016″), square (0.016″ × 0.016″), and rectangular (0.016″ × 0.022″), were placed into the bracket slots and models were constructed which were analyzed for stress distribution on root surface and periodontal ligament with 3 different cross-sections at 90°, 100°, and 110° with Ansys Version 14 software. Conclusion: Labial stress was found highest in round arch wire as compared to square and rectangular wire. Lingual stress was found to be slightly more in rectangular wire as compared to round and square arch wire.

Proximity of upper central incisors to incisive canal among subjects with maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion in various facial growth patterns.

To investigate the position of the upper central incisor roots (U1) relative to the incisive canal (IC) among subjects with maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion in various facial growth patterns. 240 cone beam computed tomography images of skeletal Class I and II maxillary or bimaxillary protrusive subjects with a mean age of 23.74 ± 3.73 years were enrolled according to their facial growth pattern. The IC volume was measured using Mimics 21 software (Materialise, Leuven, Belgium). The U1 inter-root distance, width of IC, and their proximity were estimated using Invivo6 software (Anatomage, San Jose, CA). The IC volume was slightly greater among the high angle facial group and female patients than the other groups. Overall, the IC width was greater than the U1 inter-root distance in 55.65%, 57.6%, and 65% among the average, low, and high angle facial groups, respectively, and in 56.5% and 62.9% of males and females, respectively. The overall anteroposterior (sagittal) distances between the U1 roots and IC were 4.36 ± 1.18, 4.78 ± 1.17, and 3.83 ± 0.90 mm among the average, low, and high angle facial groups, respectively. The high angle facial group and female patients showed slightly greater IC dimensions than the other groups. The overall maximum sagittal distances between the U1 and IC were around 5.5, 6, and 4.7 mm among the average, low, and high angle facial groups, respectively. The low angle facial group and male patients tended to have greater sagittal distances. Therefore, the present findings could serve as a guideline when a considerable amount of upper incisor retraction is planned for Class I or II maxillary or bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion patients.

The effect of experimental conditions in root dentin microcracks detection by micro-computed tomography

The aim of the study was to assess the effect of different experimental conditions on registration of microcracks by means of micro-computed tomography. Twenty roots of permanent lower incisors were instrumented with SAF system, filled with a single-cone technique and retreated with the Pro Taper Universal Retreatment system. Each sample was measured in dry, water, and moist conditions. The dry scanning was done after drying of the roots for a period of 4 h in ambient conditions followed by a second observation in wet environment after 48 h of rehydrating in distilled water. A time scan was performed to measure the dentin shrinkage while drying the samples in the tomograph’s device compartment. All roots underwent complex inhomogeneous shrinkage and deformation due to the internal stress upon dehydration. This deformation opened the existing cracks to an extent above the current resolution of today’s laboratory computed tomography scanners. Contrary, rehydration of the dentin reversed the deformation thus closing some of the cracks below the computed tomography resolution making them undetectable. The first dehydration of dentin may be a source of cracks initiation itself.

Comparison of soft tissue changes between incisor tipping and translation after premolar extraction.

ObjectiveThis study compared soft tissue changes after extraction of the four premolars followed by maximum retraction of the anterior teeth according to the type of anterior teeth movement tipping and translation.MethodsPatients who had undergone orthodontic treatment involving the extraction of four premolars were retrospectively selected and divided into either the tipping (n = 27) or translation (n = 26) groups based on the retraction of the incisor root apex and the axis changes of the incisors during the treatment period. Lateral pre- and post-treatment cephalograms were analyzed.ResultsThere were no significant differences between the tipping and translation groups before treatment. The retraction amounts of the root apex of the upper and lower incisors in the tipping group were 0.33 and 0.26 mm, respectively, and 5.02 and 5.31 mm, respectively, in the translation group (p < 0.001). The posterior movements of soft tissue points A and B in the tipping group were 0.61 and 1.25 mm, respectively, and 1.10 and 3.25 mm, respectively, in the translation group (p < 0.01). The mentolabial sulcus angle increased by 5.89° in the tipping group, whereas it decreased by 8.13° in the translation group (p < 0.001).ConclusionsAn increased amount of retraction of the incisor root apex led to the increased posterior movement of soft tissue points A and B, and this appeared more distinct in cases involving the lower incisor and lower lip.

Three-dimensional evaluation of mandibular canine impaction characteristics and their relationship with lower incisor root morphometry

To three-dimensionally evaluate the characteristics of mandibular canine impaction with the morphometry of the roots of the lower incisors. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of 35 individuals (18 males and 17 females) with a mean age of 14.37± 10.26 years were evaluated. Forty-three impacted mandibular canines (IMbC) were evaluated. Their location, sector and level of impaction were determined. Likewise, the distances of the canines to the occlusal plane, the angulations with respect to the midline and adjacent lateral incisors, the length of the impacted canines, and of the lower incisors were measured. Finally, the presence of incisor root resorption was determined. Chi-square and Kruskal Wallis tests were employed (P<0.05). The buccal position of the IMbCs was the most predominant (65.1%), and the location below the apical middle third of the lower incisor root was the most frequent (32.6%). No statistical significance was found between root resorption and location, level and impaction sector. Only mild root resorption and impaction sector 5 was significant (66.70%; P<0.001). The proximity of the follicle and crown of the IMbC did not affect the root structure of the lower incisors. 72.1% and 52.2% of mandibular canines did not present contact of the impacted canine or its follicle with the adjacent tooth respectively. Root lengths were similar in the different types of impactions (P>0.05). IMbCs are mostly positioned buccally and below the apical middle third of the root of the lower incisors. Likewise, the proximity of their follicles and crowns does not seem to affect the root structure of the lower incisors, producing minimal and infrequent root resorption. Key words:Mandibular canine impaction, incisor root morphometry, cone-beam CT.

Influence of root width and dentin wall thickness evaluated by endoscopy upon the outcome of periapical surgery. A cohort study.

Background An analysis was made of the correlation between root width, the thickness of the remaining dentinal wall as determined by endoscopy, and the outcome of periapical surgery.Material and Methods A retrospective cohort study was carried out involving patients subjected to periapical surgery between 2017 and 2019 at the University of Valencia (Valencia, Spain).One year after surgery, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to evaluate healing against the preoperative volumes. The maximum root width was measured on the postoperative CBCT scan at the apical section of the treated root. This measurement was transferred to the intraoperative endoscopic image, where the minimum root width, peripheral dentin thickness, and minimum dentin thickness were recorded. Root measurements, and the position (maxillary or mandibular) and type of tooth (roots of incisors, canines, premolars or molars) were further correlated to periapical surgery outcome.Results A total of 51 patients, comprising 52 teeth and 62 roots, were included in the study. The mean measurements were: maximum root width (4.13±0.84 mm), minimum root width (2.46±0.72 mm), peripheral dentin thickness (0.77±0.2 mm) and minimum dentin thickness (0.4±0.2 mm). The success rate was 82.2%. Premolar roots showed a greater minimum dentin thickness (0.58±0.25 mm) (p<0.003) than incisor roots. No significant association was found between the different measurements and the healing rate at one year, though the roots that failed to heal showed smaller minimum dentin thickness values than the roots that healed correctly. The position and type of tooth did not influence healing outcome.Conclusions The root width and thickness of the remaining dentin wall did not significantly influence healing. However, the roots that failed to heal showed smaller minimum dentin thickness values than the roots that healed correctly. Key words:Endodontic surgery, endoscope, dentin walls.

Symphysis morphology and mandibular alveolar bone thickness in patients with β-thalassemia major and different growth patterns

ABSTRACTObjective: The present study aimed to assess the morphology of symphysis and alveolar bone thickness (ABT) surrounding mandibular incisors in thalassemic patients, as compared to unaffected individuals. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on lateral cephalograms of 60 thalassemic and 60 unaffected patients with Class II malocclusion seeking orthodontic treatment at Dental School, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. The sample was divided into three subgroups including hyperdivergent, normodivergent, and hypodivergent, according to the Jarabak index. Symphysis dimensions and alveolar bone thickness surrounding mandibular incisors were measured using AutoCad software. Finally, the correlation between alveolar bone thickness and symphysis morphology was assessed. Results: In general, chin dimensions and bone thickness at different levels of mandibular incisor roots (cervical, middle, apical) were smaller in thalassemic adolescents than controls. Concerning the total sample as well as the normodivergent subgroup, significantly lower values were observed in thalassemic patients for symphysis width, total ABT at the cervical, and lingual ABT at the apical root area compared to controls (p < 0.05). The hypodivergent growth pattern was not associated with any statistical differences between the groups (p> 0.05). In both thalassemic and control subjects, symphysis width showed a weak to moderate positive correlation with ABT of lower incisors (p< 0.05), whereas symphysis height showed a moderate positive correlation with cervical ABT in only ß‐thalassemia patients (p< 0.05). Conclusions: Compared to controls, ß-thalassemia patients showed thinner alveolar bone at different levels of lower incisor roots and smaller symphysis dimensions. There were significant correlations between symphysis dimensions and alveolar bone thickness of mandibular incisors in the sample.

Evaluation of the morphology of the nasopalatine canal using cone beam computed tomography

High precise evaluation of the nasopalatine canal morphology is essential to perform detailed diagnosis and treatment plans in implantology and the orthodontic field. We aimed to study morphometric analysis measurements of the nasopalatine canal. In this cross-sectional study, maxillary CBCT images from 125 patients were evaluated in the Maxillofacial Radiology department between 2014-2021. Sagittal views were assessed to determine nasopalatine canal morphology and dimensions. The difference in canal diameter and length between genders was evaluated using an One Way ANOVA test. There was no significant sex difference among all 125 cases in nasopalatine canal diameter, length, anterior bone plate width. The average length of the nasopalatine canal was 16.49±2.8 mm in male, 16.20±2.9 mm in female, incisive foramen diameter in the sagittal plane was 4.04±0.9 mm in male, 4.02±0.9 mm in female, nasopalatine foramen diameter was 4.63±1.4 mm in male, 4.75±1.2 mm in female. The width of the bone anterior to the canal was 5.89±1.4 mm in males, 5.69±1 mm in females. 16-48 aged Mongolian average length of the nasopalatine canal was 16.3 mm, and average incisive foramen width was 4.08 mm, the average width of the bone anterior to the canal was 5.76 mm. Anterior retraction treatment for upper incisor root can be done safely without root resorption around 5.5 mm in the premaxillary alveolar bone.

Morphological Evaluation of Impacted Maxillary Canine and Adjacent Teeth Using Three-Dimensional Reconstructed CBCT Images: An Analytical Cross-Sectional Study

Introduction: The structural characteristics of unilaterally impacted maxillary canines and adjacent teeth were compared to the nonimpacted side. Three-dimensional (3D) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to analyze and evaluate the various parameters. The aim of this study was a quantitative comparison of teeth adjacent to buccally and palatally impacted maxillary canines. Methods: CBCT records of 40 patients with unilateral impacted maxillary canine were allocated to this study. The morphological characteristics of teeth on the impaction and non-impaction sides of the same patient were examined. 3D reconstructed CBCT images were assessed using the OnDemand 3D program. Results: The dependent samples t test was used for data analysis with a level of statistical significance of 0.05. There was a significant increase in the size of the maxillary canine crown and a decrease in the maxillary lateral incisor root dimensions on the impacted side. No significant difference was observed in the morphology of the maxillary first premolar on either side. Conclusion: The impacted canine showed greater size compared to the eruption side. The decrease in root dimensions of the lateral incisor on the impacted side may indicate the possibility of root resorption.

Association Between Impacted Maxillary Canines and Adjacent Lateral Incisors: A Retrospective Study With Cone Beam Computed Tomography.

The goal of this study was to evaluate the association between the morphologic characteristics of maxillary lateral incisors and maxillary canine impaction by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. CBCT images of 52 patients (19 male and 33 female) with unilateral impacted maxillary canines were selected. The volume, root, and total lengths of the lateral incisor, mesiodistal and buccolingual widths of the lateral incisor crowns, angles between the central axis of the lateral incisor and the midline, occlusal plane, and the central axis of canines in both the impacted and non-impacted side were measured and compared. Statistically significant differences were obtained when comparing the volume of the lateral incisor, the mesiodistal and buccolingual widths of the lateral incisor crown, the root and total lengths of the lateral incisors, and angles between the central axis of the lateral incisor and the midline and the central axis of the adjacent canine (P < .05). There were no significant differences in lateral incisor axis and the maxillary occlusal plane angulation. The association between the morphologic and angular features of the maxillary lateral incisors and maxillary canine impaction was confirmed. The volume of the lateral incisor, mesiodistal and buccolingual width of the lateral incisor crown, root and the total length of the lateral incisor, and the lateral incisor angulation to the midline and the axis of adjacent canine were found to be strong predictors of maxillary canine impaction.

Unconventional Endodontics for the Aesthetic Rehabilitation of Fractured, Discolored and Rotated Maxillary Central Incisor

Management of traumatic injuries to the teeth is a challenge to the practicing dentist. It has no prescriptive method for occurring, possesses no significant predictable pattern of intensity or extensiveness and occurring at times when dentists are least prepared for it. Ninety-two percent of traumatic injuries results in fracture of maxillary permanent central incisors because of its protrusive and anterior positioning. The young permanent maxillary central incisor root canal chamber is large and tapered. This case report describes the management of Ellis Class III fractured tooth in a young permanent maxillary central incisor by an innovative clinical procedure.&#x0D; Keywords: tooth fracture, cast post core, trauma, metal ceramic

Comparison of Fracture Resistance of Primary Incisors Restored with Different Intracanal-Reinforcement Materials.

AimTo evaluate the effects of placing short posts made of different restorative materials on the fracture resistance of root canals in primary incisors of primary teeth.Materials and MethodsThe root canals of 40 extracted primary incisors were prepared and filled with Vitapex and randomly divided into five groups of 8 each. In Groups 1–4, a post space was created and filled with different restorative materials (Tetric® N-Ceram Bulk Fill, AeliteFlo, Filtek Z250 XT, and GC Fuji II LC® capsule), while Group 5 was kept filled with Vitapex as a control. Fracture resistance was measured using a universal testing machine at a 0.5-mm/min crosshead speed. The results were statistically analyzed and compared.ResultsThe highest fracture resistance was recorded for GC Fuji II LC capsules [439.82 N] and control [423.37 N], while the lowest fracture resistance was recorded for Tetric® N Ceram Bulk Fill (239.91 N). A multiple comparison test showed that the Tetric® N-Ceram Bulk Fill had a significantly lower average value than AeliteFlo (P = 0.030), as well as a significantly lower average value than GC Fuji II LC® capsule (P = 0.001), and a significantly lower average value than the control group (P = 0.002). Multiple comparison tests showed no significant difference between Tetric® N-Ceram Bulk Fill and Filtek Z250 XT (P = 0.39).ConclusionThe fracture resistance of primary incisor root canals differs according to the material used for the intracanal posts. Three-millimeter intracanal posts in the primary incisors showed the highest fracture resistance for the teeth restored with GC Fuji II LC capsules and the control.
