Poster Title: Management of diffused cellulitis of dental origin: Case series
Poster Presenter: Dr. Imen Raâdani
Abstract: Objectives: to report clinical cases about diffused cellulitis (DC) of dental origin and to focus on medical and surgical managements
Method: Patients hospitalised in the ENT department undergone clinical, biological and radiological investigations. The dental origin was confirmed in dental medicine department.
Results: Five patients, 4 women and a men were hospitalised for DC. Three had Diabetes mellitus and 2 with no medical history. Three DC were related to a maxillary tooth and 2 to a mandibular tooth. At admission, patients were febrile. Dysphagia and dyspnea were recorded for patients with cervical location of the cellulitis with involvement of the floor of the mouth. White blood count cells and CRP were elevated. The extension of the cellulitis was investigated with CT scanning. The dental origin was confirmed by clinical and panoramic radiography exams. All patients received intravenous antibiotherapy combination. Surgical drainage under general anesthesia was performed for 2 patients. Tooth removal was performed in 3 cases. The outcome was favorable for all patients.
Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus is a well-known risk Factor for DC. Early diagnosis and management are crucial In the dental medicine department
Poster Title: Digital Vs Conventional complete denture bases: Network meta-analysis of invitro studies comparing trueness of fit, surface roughness, color stability, surface wettability, water sorption, water solubility and microbial adhesion
Poster Presenter: Dr. Sarah Omar AlSaqaf
Abstract: Objectives. The purpose of this systematic review with network meta-analysis was to analyze the current evidence on invitro studies comparing trueness of fit, surface roughness, color stability, surface wettability, water sorption, water solubility and microbial adhesion between conventional and digital denture bases. Data/Sources. A systematic search of published in vitro studies from: Scopus, PubMed, and Cochrane Central Register of controlled Studies as of date inception until December 2023 was conducted. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024531416). Network meta-analysis was performed to compare properties related to dimensional accuracy and surface properties between conventional and digital dentures. Ranking was performed using the surface area under the cumulative ranking guidelines. Study selection. A total of 6004 articles were initially identified of which 342 duplicates were removed and 5566 were excluded by screening the titles and abstracts. A total of 96 articles were assessed by full text reading, and 43 were included in the quantitative synthesis. As per the network meta-analysis results, MIL demonstrated significantly higher trueness of fit when compared with CCM (SMD= -2.25 [95% CI: -4.09, -0.40]), P=0.017 (<.05) and TDP (SMD= -1.57 [95%CI: -3.14, -0.01]) P< 0.05. MIL demonstrated significantly lower surface roughness when compared with CCM (SMD = -0.99 [95% CI: -1.72, -0.26]), P=0.008 (<.05) and TDP (SMD = -1.08 [95%CI: -1.95, -0.22]) P< 0.05. Conclusions. There is conclusive evidence that milled digital denture bases demonstrate higher trueness of fit and lower surface roughness than 3D-Printed denture bases and conventional denture bases as demonstrated by the concurrent network and pairwise results. Clinical Significance. Milled digital dentures exhibit higher accuracy and lower surface roughness in invitro studies. Clinical performance of milled dentures in relation to these properties needs to be evaluated by high quality randomized controlled clinical trials.
Poster Title: Retrospective study regarding the advantages of Micro-screw-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) in adult patients suffering of transverse maxillary deficiency
Poster Presenter: Dr. Alexandru Vlasa
Abstract: Transverse maxillary deficiency currently affects 8% to 23% of adults and is a common condition in young adults. Untreated or treated incorrectly it can affect the health of these patients over time. In this sense, changes in the occlusal plane and damage to the periodontal structures may occur in these patients. Moreover, gingival recession, changing in the position of the tongue, asymmetry of the facial planes and, in severe cases, even the syndrome of sleep apnea is frequently associated with transverse maxillary deficiency.
One of the most used orthodontic treatments today in patients with transverse jaw defects is the maxillary skeletal expander (MSE). The use of skeletal maxillary expanders has the effect the spacing of the maxillary bones at the level of the median palatine suture. Micro-screw-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) was first introduced into clinical practice in 2010.
By introducing the use of micro-screws at the level of the hard palate, an attempt was made to reduce the complications that appeared after the traditional procedures of surgical rapid jaw expansion, such as limited skeletal expansion, failure to achieve expansion, pain, tissue swelling, gingival recession, bone resorption and recurrence. The main reason is that the micro-screws have the role of supplementary anchorage for the maxillary expander. Due to its popularity in clinical orthodontics, our current understanding of treatment efficacy, efficiency, and stability needs to be reevaluated.
Poster Title: Management Of Fused Primary Anterior Teeth: A Case Series Report
Poster Presenter: Dr. Mohamed Shalaby
Abstract: Fusion is a developmental dental anomaly that may affect both dentitions. The condition occurs during the developmental stage when two different tooth bud fused. According to the degree of fusion, teeth may be diagnosed as having fusion, gemination, or macrodontia. This defect is usually described as primary double teeth. Dental caries, crowding, occlusion discrepancies and poor aesthetics are the main clinical problems of PDT. This report presents the clinical experience of managing thirteen different primary fused anterior teeth. The aim was to preserve and restore the decay, with restoring function and esthetics. Treatment varied from applying preventive measures to separating these fused teeth. Clinical and radiographic diagnosis were used to determine the appropriate treatment plan. Removal of decay followed by restoration using either composite or zirconia crowns was done. Some teeth required pulp treatment before final restoration, so pulpectomy was done and canals were sealed with calcium hydroxide and iodoform mix. Evaluation criteria included clinical success, gingival health, function and esthetics preservation. Follow up varied from one to four years. Follow up of the presented cases showed that the selected preventive, restorative and surgical alternatives were successful in retaining the affected teeth to serve in a stable and healthy condition.
