Dental students are required to demonstrate competency by pre-clinical simulated practice before performing invasive clinical procedures on patients. The Moog Simodont® Trainer provides a virtual reality-based dental simulation environment for training students.This cross-sectional questionnaire-based study compared students' perception of the paediatric dentistry gained in and conventional environment.The who completed pulpotomies stainless steel crowns (SSCs) laboratory were invited...
Abstract Objectives Two fractured one‐piece experimental (commercially unavailable) zirconia implants were analyzed using scanning electron microscope ( SEM ) analysis to identify failure origins and aid in understanding the mechanisms. Modifications implant design are suggested minimize such fracture incidences. Materials methods during final torquing maxillary ridge prescribed hand torque wrench. The subsequently retrieved prepared for optical evaluation. Critical attention was given...
Abstract Background Titanium (Ti) implants have been used in the last four decades to replace missing teeth. Alternatives Ti such as zirconia (Zr) may offer aesthetic advantages and be more acceptable patients clinicians concerned about allergy but must show equivalent biological acceptability Ti. Purpose The research aimed investigate soft hard tissue response Zr edentulous patients. Materials Methods included 24 participants ( T i = 12, Z r 12) restored with one‐piece ball‐abutment support...
Reports have documented titanium (Ti) hypersensitivity after dental implant treatment. Alternative materials been suggested including zirconia (Zr) ceramics, which shown predictable osseointegration in animal studies and appear free of immune responses. The aim the research was to investigate bone-to-implant contact (BIC) one-piece Zr, compared with Ti implants, placed jaws femurs domestic sheep. Ten New Zealand mixed breed sheep were used. A One-piece prototype (control) one Zr (test)...
The aim of this study was to evaluate parental and training coaches' knowledge attitude towards traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) among children.A 31-item questionnaire distributed the parents coaches attending local sporting clubs in Brisbane region, Australia. consisted five parts (i) demographic professional information; (ii) TDIs primary dentition; (iii) fractures subluxation permanent teeth (iv) avulsion teeth, (v) information related management traumatized teeth. jamovi (Version 1.6.3)...
Introduction: The role of bacteria in the etiology peri‐implantitis has been reported literature. However, influence confounding factors on disease remains unclear. following case series discusses presence metal particles diseased peri‐implant mucosa. Case Series: Four patients with underwent surgical therapy and diode laser surface decontamination procedures. Peri‐implant mucosa was excised under local anesthesia samples were prepared for histology, scanning electron microscopy (SEM),...
Abstract Background It has been suggested that completely edentulous patients harbour fewer periodontopathic bacteria compared with dentate patients, due to the removal of subgingival periodontal environment. However, reappearance certain microbes reported after placement implants in these patients. Aim The aim this study was determine whether P orphyromonas gingivalis and T annerella forsythia , as well non‐periodontopathic bacterium, S taphylococcus aureus emerged 6 months one‐piece...
Abstract Introduction Atrophy of the alveolar bone is an irreversible multifactorial phenomenon, rate which varies between individuals and jaws. This atrophy ridges presents severe limitations for oral rehabilitation edentulous patients poses a clinical challenge to prosthodontists implant surgeons. The present research aimed investigate whether median‐palate elderly subjects anatomically suitable placement. Materials methods A total 32 samples were harvested from maxillae 16 human cadavers....
ABSTRACT Aim and objective The literature regarding the perception of two-way relationship between diabetes mellitus periodontal disease representing diabetic patients living in Australia is scarce. study aimed to evaluate knowledge attitudes bidirectional link role medical healthcare professionals providing oral health advice their patients. Materials methods A convenience sample attending general practice-based dental centers was invited complete a questionnaire-based survey. survey...
