Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı pulpa kapaklama materyallerin klinik başarılarını retrospektif olarak değerlendirmek için direkt pulpa kapaklama tedavileri uygulanmış hastaları 1 yıl boyunca takip etmektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu retrospektif takip çalışmasına, Restoratif Diş Tedavisi kliniğine çürük semptomları nedeniyle başvurmuş, 18-45 yaş aralığında, sistemik sağlık problemi olmayan, farklı pulpa kapaklama materyalleri kullanılarak direkt pulpa kapaklama tedavisi uygulanmış, daimi restorasyonları kompozit dolgu materyali ile yapılmış hastalar dahil edildi. Hastalar tedavide kullanılan pulpa kapaklama materyallerine göre 4 farklı gruba ayrıldı. Grup 1: Ca(OH)2, Grup 2: MTA, Grup 3: TheraCal LC ve Grup 4: Biodentine idi. Hastaların klinik takipleri 1. hafta, 1., 3., 6. ve 12. aylarda gerçekleştirildi. Klinik takipler için gelen hastaların ağrı, perküsyon, postoperatif hassasiyet şikayetleri değerlendirildi, soğuk testi ve elektrikli vitalite testi ile tedavi edilen dişlerin vitaliteleri ölçüldü. İstatistiksel analiz için Ki-Kare testi ve Fisher Exact testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Elde edilen verilere göre sağ kalım açısından en yüksek başarı oranı Biodentine grubunda %90.9 iken, en düşük başarı oranı Ca(OH)2 grubunda %80 olarak gözlendi. MTA grubunda başarı oranı %84, TheraCal LC grubunda ise %81.8’lik bir başarı oranı tespit edildi. Gruplar karşılaştırıldığında sağ kalım oranları açısından başarı oranları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olmadığı gözlendi. Sonuç: Direkt pulpa kapaklamasında kullanılmak için üretilen materyallerin kısa dönem klinik takiplerinde dişlerin canlılığını korumada etkili oldukları ve klinik başarı oranlarının benzer olduğu, ancak materyallerin uzun dönem klinik başarılarının daha iyi anlaşılabilmesi için daha fazla hasta katılımlı ve uzun dönem takipli çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of fiber-reinforced periodontal splints (FRSs) and adhesive bridges (FRBs) in treating anterior single-tooth defects. Methodology: Sixty-five patients who received FRSs and FRBs from 2001 to 2012 were recalled and evaluated clinically. The FRS and FRB restorations of the patients were clinically evaluated in terms of anatomical form, marginal adaptation, marginal coloration, secondary caries, and retention, according to the modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria. The current restoration statuses of the patients from 5 to 10 years post-treatment were photographed and recorded. Patient satisfaction level was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS), and periodontal pocket depth was measured. Clinical follow-up data were obtained and analyzed with the Chi-squared test (p<0.05). Results: When each of the modified USPHS criteria was compared with the baseline values, statistically significant differences were observed between the groups. There were statistically significant differences when the categories were evaluated according to initial values (p<0.05). When the clinical evaluation criteria were compared with each other, no statistically significant differences were found (p>0.05). While the most successful results were obtained in the FRB group, most of the restoration losses and repairs occurred in the FRS group. According to the data obtained, 38% of restorations were lost and all restorations had been intact for at least 5 years. All lost restorations were in FGS restorations. The recall rate was 49% (n=32). Twenty (62.5%) of 32 patients rated their satisfaction with the restorations as being between 90 and 100, 8 (25%) as being between 80 and 90, and 4 (12.5%) as being between 70 and 80 on the VAS scale. The pocket depths of the patients at 5- and 10-years post-restoration were 2.3–3.8 mm and 2.4–5.2 mm, respectively. Conclusion: Fiber-reinforced restorations performed due to the loss of anterior single teeth and periodontal tissue can serve patients clinically for at least 5 years. FGK and FGS restorations can be considered alternative treatments that can further delay the more expensive implant and prosthetic treatment options for years.
