Poster Presenter: Dr Sarah Omar AlSaqaf & Dr Adonis Khaled Abu Kariem
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: 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.
Poster Title: Influence of acidic drinks and dental brushing on surface roughness of restorative resin materials.
Poster Presenter: Dr. Hawra Mana
Abstract: Restorative resin materials are one of the most important parts of modern dentistry. They Longevity and effectiveness of these materials are closely related to their surface properties, especially surface roughness. The roughness of the surface can affect the retention of plaque, the appearance of the restorations, and the overall clinical performance of the. A study was done to evaluate the surface roughness of four flowable resin composites following exposure to acidic and alcoholic drinks in Italy Four flowable resin composites were selected for the study Arithmetical mean height values (Sa) are reported . Kruskal-Wallis test showed significant differences among various groups . Mann Whitney test was then applied and control groups showed significantly lower Sa values than other groups (P=0.008) for all the flowable composites tested. Coca Cola groups showed highest Sa values (P<0.021). When analyzing the four different composites both under artificial saliva and acidic drink immersion, Surefil SDR flow expressed significantly higher Sa values (P<0,001) than other materials tested, that did not show significant differences among them (P>0,05). Moreover، Amaris Flow HT after immersion in alcoholic drinkshowed significantly lower (P<0,001) Sa values than other three groups that did not show any significant differences (P>0,05) in surface texture.1

Poster Title: Optical monitoring of clear dental thermoplastics in simulated oral environment
Poster Presenter: Prof Porojan Liliana
Abstract: Clear thermoplastic appliances are associated with high aesthetic characteristics. It is important to keep their optical properties both right after oral application and during their use. Chromatic changes of dental materials are usually assessed by means of color differences, but in addition to color measurements, proper measurements of whiteness are important for their optical monitoring. The aim of the study was to evaluate the optical behavior of clear dental thermoplastics in simulated oral environment. Materials and methods: Four PETG dental thermoformed thermoplastics were chosen for the study: Leone (L), Crystal (C), Erkodur (E), and Duran (D). To simulate the oral environment, 120 specimens were divided into three groups: the first was the control group, the second was immersed in artificial saliva (14 days) and the third subject further to thermal cycling (400 cycles). Chromatic changes were assessed on dried specimens, by measurements of the L*, a*, b* values and calculation of the translucency (TP) and opalescence (OP) parameters, color variation (ΔE NBS) and whiteness index for dentistry (WID). The data were subject to statistical analyses. Results: L* values increase significant after saliva immersion and thermal cycling, but are within the accepted limits. a* and b* chromatic coordinates values are lower than those of simulated teeth, describing a migration towards green and blue. TP increase significant for L, D, C and OP decrease significant for L, D. ΔE NBS values indicate perceivable and marked color changes. WID increase significant after saliva immersion and thermal cycling. Registered ΔWID are higher than the visual threshold of 0.72 units, but lower than 3 units and are considered fairy acceptable. Conclusion: Significant changes in the optical characteristics of clear dental thermoplastics were registered, associated with saliva immersion and thermal cycling in a simulated oral environment.
Poster Title: Osseointegration of Dental Implants in the highly mineralized area, close to inferior alveolar nerve - A Clinical Case Report
Poster Presenter: Dr Mohammed Saif Tagala
Abstract: Radiopaque lesions of the jaws are often found incidentally on the radiographs and computed tomography. Most of them are asymptomatic, benign in nature, highly mineralized and only a few rare cases are associated with malignant transformation. Adequate bone must be present for successful implant placement to get the best aesthetic and functional outcome. Dental Implant placement in the area of hyperdense lesion is challenging. We hereby report a case of successful immediate dental implants placement with guided bone regeneration in the area of hyperdense lesion of the jaw. Objective of this case report aims to highlight the effectiveness and safety of dental implants in the area of hyperdense jaw lesions.

Poster Title: Comparative Study of Two Different Attachments in Implant Retained Mandibular Overdenture
Poster Presenter: Dr May Ahmad Mohammed & Yasser El-Ramady
Abstract: To compare the retention characteristics of two types of attachments (Ball and socket attachment and GPS attachment) in early loaded implants supporting mandibular overdenture. Conventional complete dentures were constructed. Then the patients received two implants in the canine region. Patients were divided randomly into two equal groups (Five patients each) as follows: Group I: each patient received two ball attachments over the implants to retain overdenture, Group II: each patient received two GPS attachments over the implants to retain overdenture. The retention for all cases was measured with a digital forcemeter at time of insertion (0 month) and after three months. Data were collected, checked, revised, tabulated and statistically analysed with Student’s t-test.
