Corono-radicular fractures: a new conservative approach
Traumatic lesions of permanent dentition have a percentage of incidence which ranges from 26-76%: the most frequent causes are falls, accidents occurred during sports or as a consequence of violent episodes. Upper incisors are the most frequently affected teeth, even if, when there are traumatic lesions of the chin, as a rebound effect, it is […]
Endo-resto treatment of a lower molar in a patient with aligners. Modified stamp technique
The stamp technique is a well known way to reproduce accurately the occlusal anatomy of the tooth. It allows to restore quickly and in a predictable way even class II cavities and anterior teeth (as shown in this article by Giuseppe Marchetti https://www.styleitaliano.org/fast-single-shade-anterior-restorations-flowable-composite-the-stamp-technique). In the following case report I adapted the stamp technique to the […]
Guidelines for the correct selection and optimal luting of fiber posts
Most failures of endodontically treated teeth seem to be due to biomechanical or restorative rather than biological reasons. For a long-term success is very important to minimize the loss of tissue during the shaping and the post space preparation. The preparation of the post space may reduce the "ferrule effect", that is the key factor […]
The use of CAD/CAM technology
in the restoration of endodontically treated teeth
Due to the biological and structural changes that the tooth undergoes during endodontic treatments,in principle it is mandatory that the teeth should be covered with a crown. The exceptation of this rule is mentioned in the first part of the article (direct restoration of endodontically treated teeth) In the indirect restorations we have to consider […]
Endo-resto treatment of upper right first premolar.
The coronary seal is just as important as the apical seal. Endodontic treatments will have good prognosis and their long life will be ensured, if we have completed treatment not only of the endodontic system but also of the restorations part. We are witnesses ourselves, but there are also have many studies that proves that […]
Microbrush X - Extended Reach Applicator
Before Microbrush Adhesion is a technique-sensitive procedure. Depending upon the type of adhesive used, a number of variables are known as critical for the final result. This variables can be a risk for the longevity of the restorations performed every day by every dentist, and thus, a risk for professional success. Moist or dry dentine, […]
