    Abstract:

    Objective: To analysis the combined application of the dental digital photography and Diagnostic Wax-up for the restoration of anterior teeth aesthetics. Methods: 36 patients with the needs of anterior teeth restoration were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The patients in experimental group were treated with the combined application of dental digital photography and Diagnostic Wax-up. The patients in control group were treated with regular methods for the restoration of anterior teeth aesthetics. A questionnaire on the satisfaction was performed. Result: There was significant difference between the two methods(P 0.05). The patients in experimental group were satisfied with the treatmeng results.

  • simple case treatment planning diastema closure
    Dental Clinics of North America, 2015
    Co-Authors: Vincent Calamia, Alexandria Pantzis
    Abstract:

    Abstract This article demonstrates the use of a smile evaluation form as an adjunct in arriving at diagnosis and developing a treatment plan for a patient desiring Diastema closure. It also shows the importance of the Diagnostic Wax-up for temporization and visualization of case outcome. The case also demonstrates the use of soft tissue lasers to create a gingival harmony that enhanced the resulting esthetics. Feldspathic porcelain was used for the final restorations because they provide optimal esthetics and translucency.

  • full mouth rehabilitation of a patient with severely worn dentition and uneven occlusal plane a clinical report
    Journal of Prosthodontics, 2012
    Co-Authors: Elnaz Moslehifard, S Nikzad, Farideh Geraminpanah, Farhang Mahboub
    Abstract:

    Severe tooth wear is frequently multifactorial and variable. Successful management is a subject of interest in dentistry. A critical aspect is to determine the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) and a systematic approach that can lead to a predictable and favorable treatment prognosis. Management of patients with worn dentition is complex and difficult. Accurate clinical and radiographic examinations, a Diagnostic Wax-up, and determining OVD are crucial. Using mini-implants as orthodontic anchorage may facilitate orthodontic movement of teeth to improve their position, which is necessary for favorable prosthetic treatment. A 46-year-old man was referred for restoration of his worn and missing teeth. After Diagnostic work-up, provisional removable prostheses were fabricated for both jaws, evaluated clinically, and adjusted according to esthetic, phonetic, and vertical dimension criteria. Clinical crown lengthening and free gingival graft procedures were performed in appropriate areas. Drifting of the left posterior mandibular teeth was corrected using mini-implants as orthodontic anchorage. Two conventional implants were inserted in the right mandibular edentulous area. After endodontic therapy of worn teeth, custom-cast gold dowels and cores were fabricated, and provisional removable prostheses were replaced with fixed provisional restorations. Metal-ceramic restorations were fabricated, and a removable partial denture with attachments was fabricated for maxillary edentulous areas. An occlusal splint was used to protect the restorations. Full-mouth rehabilitation of the patient with severely worn dentition and an uneven occlusal plane was found to be successful after 3 years of follow-up. This result can encourage clinicians to seek accurate diagnosis and treatment planning to treat such patients.
