Non-detached immediate definitive lithium-disilicate individualized abutments and provisionalization through digital technology resulted in successful clinical outcomes and can be routinely applied.
Early detection of enamel demineralizations bordering laminate veneers would result in time-saving and less-invasive treatment methods; therefore, SPP radiography may be recommended in clinically suspicious cases since it provides better diagnostic accuracy.
<p>The determination of optimum occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) that is harmonious with the individuals’ craniofacial system is important for prosthetic restorative procedures. The purpose of this article was to examine the importance of OVD for implant supported prosthetic restorations with two clinical reports. A computer aided literature review was conducted to define the articles about OVD and implant supported restorations. The review revealed that one-stage OVD increase with moderate to severe degrees (3-16 mm, mean: 7.3 mm) did not result in any complaints or temporomandibular disorders. Regaining the OVD did not result in relapse or any changes. Moderate alterations in the occlusal vertical dimension of patients are generally well tolerated when necessary for therapeutic purposes.</p> <p><strong> </strong><strong>Keywords: </strong>Dental implant, occlusal vertical dimension.</p><p> </p><p><strong>ÖZET</strong></p> <p>Bireylerin kraniyofasiyal sistemleri ile uyumlu optimum okluzyon dikey boyutunun (ODB) belirlenmesi, protetik restorasyon yapımında oldukça önemlidir. Bu makalenin amacı, oklüzyon dikey boyutunun implant üstü protetik restorasyonlar açısından önemini iki olgu ile irdelemektir. İmplant üstü protezler ile oklüzyon dikey boyutunun ilişkisi hakkında bilgisayar destekli tarama yapılmıştır. Yapılan literatür değerlendirilmesinde, total diş eksikliğinde orta ve yüksek düzeyde (3-16 mm, ortalama:7,3 mm) yapılan tek aşamalı dikey boyut arttırımının herhangi bir yakınmaya ya da temporomandibular eklem düzensizliğine yol açmadığı gözlenmiştir. Yeniden kazandırılan ODB’ da ise değişim ya da geriye dönüş gözlenmemiştir. İmplant destekli protetik restorasyonlarda, terapötik amaçlar nedeniyle gerekli ise ODB’nun orta derecede arttırılması, hastalar tarafından iyi tolere edilmektedir.</p>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
