        Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Dental Materials and their Innovation in Digital Dentistry- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Abad-Coronel Cristian Abstract Dental materials have been studied since the beginning of dentistry. Today, with the development of new technologies based on computer- aided design and computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), continuously new and improved materials are presented. The study of the materials, independent of their manufacturers is indispensable to generate suitable criteria of selection for clinicians and dental technicians. In this article opinion, the evolution, clinical and laboratory applications, properties, methods of study and the perspective of CAD/CAM materials are focused from an independent point of view. Keywords: Cad-cam materials; Digital dentistry; Dental materials Opinion The digital dentistry era is...

      Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Photodynamic Disinfection in the Treatment of Chronic Adult Periodontitis: A Multicenter Clinical Trial- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Roger C Andersen Abstract Background: Scaling and root planing (SRP) has been used effectively in periodontal therapy for more than 100 years, but produces only modest, transient reductions in bacterial load. Photodisinfection is a bactericidal modality based on the generation of oxidative stress on outer bacterial cell membranes, when light of a matched wavelength illuminates a photosensitive agent near the membrane. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of photodisinfection as an adjunct to SRP in chronic adult periodontitis. Methods: 121 patients with chronic periodontitis were recruited into a multicenter, randomized, examiner-blinded, parallel-group study. All patients were treated with scaling and root planning (SRP) at al...

    Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Etiopathogenesis of Erythema Multiforme - A Concise Review Authored by  Rakhi Issrani Abstract Erythema multiforme is a reactive muco-cutaneous disorder in a disease spectrum that comprises a self-limited, mild, exanthematic, cutaneous variant with minimal oral involvement (minor form) to a progressive, fulminating, severe variant with extensive muco-cutaneous epithelial necrosis (major form). These prototypes are well defined, but their distinction may be difficult in practice because of their overlapping features. Hence this literature review describes the associated potential etiologic agents and pathogenic mechanisms of erythema multiforme that may aid in early and accurate diagnosis of this lesion to prevent the complications and morbidity associated with this entity.

  Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Challenges of the Rehabilitation of Two Central Incisors- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Carlos Eduardo Sorgi da Costa Abstract The constant advancement of ceramic systems, influencing the equilibrium of a highly aesthetic material with satisfactory resistance properties, together with the advances and successes of the adhesion systems, are increasingly encouraging patients who seek an aesthetic solution with longevity. Careful planning based on refined diagnostic waxes, with cross-information with complete photographic planning, shows that it is. It is possible to carry out a great rehabilitation with great predictability and safety in details that make a total difference in the final result. In this case report we show a total harmonization of the smile of a young patient who was very satisfied with the results obtained. Keywords: Implant; Ceramic restorations; Bone graf ...

 

Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Evaluation of Main Factors Affecting Metal Posts Retention: A Review of Article- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Amirreza Hendi Abstract The restoration of endodontically treated teeth should reestablish its form and function. To restore these weakened teeth, reconstruction of lost tooth structure is performed using a single material or a combination of available materials. The retention is the most important single factor that affect the prognosis of a post retained restoration. There are so many factors that affect the retention of metal posts and this study will review the effect of main ones. Keywords: Cast post, Retention, Post diameter, Luting cement Introduction Caries, cavity preparation and root canal instrumentation can cause a huge loss in the structure of endodontically treated teeth. The restoration of endodontically treated teeth sho...
