Análise das proporções faciais e sua relação com o formato dentário e com a dimensão vertical de repouso e de oclusão entre discentes institucionalizados

Considering the importance of the esthetic and the adequate register of vertical dimension (VD) to the oral rehabilitation, this study had as aims the analysis and comparison of two methods to get VD (Pleasure and Willis), functional space (FE), acquisition and correlation of facial and dental measurements. To do this, rest (RVD) and occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) and FE were achieved from the 30 students of the Federal University of Goias College of Dentistry. Following that, dental measurements of height and of the superior central incisors (SCI) and canine distance were registered. A facial analysis was performed to get the intercomissura, interalar, interpupilar, intercantal distance, besides register parameters as coincidence of dental and facial line, type of smile, face and SCI forms, and mastication type. The collected data were tabulated, compared by medias and standard deviations, and submitted to non-parametrical statistical analysis of Kruskal-Wallis and .Mann-Whitney with 5% of probability. The results doesn’t indicated statistical significant difference between FE of the two techniques. The measures of facial analysis are comparable with literature published data’s, but can’t be used as a parameter to the selection of intercanine distance. In 56.7% of the cases, there were coincidences of face and SCI forms, which could be a viable parameter in the selection of acrylic resin artificial tooth.

Abordagem clínica dos registros utilizados para restabelecimento da dimensão vertical de oclusão em prótese total

The determination of occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) is one of the most important steps in the rehabilitation treatment. Although various techniques have been used to measure it, none has proven to be scientifically accurate. Thus, the purpose of this study was to survey the different methods of measuring the vertical dimension and describe the clinical sequence of a method that we deem reliable.

Recuperação da dimensão vertical em pacientes com parafunção severa

The association between emotional stress and intense bruxism has as consequence the Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD), which is an increasingly apparent problem at the dental clinic, requiring judicious means of diagnosis and especially treatment.. Several factors, of equivalent importance, may be related to the DTM, one of them is the loss of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), and parafunctional habits and also the loss of stable contacts between the posterior teeth or lack thereof, which generates an increase functional anterior teeth for excessive wear or buccal and consequent.. This paper proposes using a clinical case, to present and discuss the steps for clinical diagnosis, planning and execution of oral rehabilitation with Fixed Partial Denture for restoring vertical dimension of occlusion in a patient with severe parafunction.. Oral rehabilitation of these patients should be carefully planned, respecting the functional and aesthetic aspects.. The parafunction control by monitoring the Temporomandibular Disorder is essential to the longitudinal prediction of rehabilitation performed in these types of rehabilitative treatment.

Descrição do aparelho VABB (Vertically Activated Bite Block) para o tratamento da mordida aberta anterior

Nowadays, the correction of skeletal vertical dysplasia is considered a great challenge in Orthodontics. The skeletal open bite treatment presents limitations related to vertical growth pattern, the extension of open bite and especially the stability, which is very questioned. The treatment of skeletal open bite is mostly realized by the inhibition of vertical alveolar posterior development (relative intrusion) or absolute intrusion of posterior teeth, through vertical forces, generated by the action of masticatory muscles. The purpose of this article is to present a new appliance for the treatment of skeletal open bite, the VABB (Vertically Activated Bite Block) or modified Bite Block, whose action mechanism is to limit the vertical development of the molars, by the action of facial muscles and two bilateral expansion screws that provide a counterclockwise rotation of the mandible. It will also be presented a clinical case and the technical steps for the construction of this appliance.

Prótese metalocerâmica associada à prótese metaloplástica implantossuportada em paciente desdentado total

The use of different methods and materials should be considered during the planning of implant-supported prostheses. Complications such as fractures of the acrylic resin base, wear and fracture of teeth can occur frequently, creating the need for careful planning for each patient, which can make the selection of the type of treatment more complex. Thus, this article describes the oral rehabilitation of a completely edentulous patient with bimaxillary fixed implant-supported prosthesis, with complaints on aesthetics, loss of vertical dimension and fracture of acrylic resin teeth of the upper arch. After the restoration of vertical dimension, his dentures were replaced with new bimaxillary implant-supported fixed prostheses, ceramic and acrylic resin were used as veneering material for maxilla and mandible, respectively. At the end of the treatment, the patient received bimaxillary flat occlusal splints to protect the teeth and implants of possible parafunctional habits. The approach for the treatment allowed a quick and effective resolution, with aesthetic and functional outcomes very favorable for the patient.

Reabilitação estética funcional associando onlays em cerômero e resinas nanoparticuladas

Introdução: a perda da dimensão vertical de oclusão (DVO) é resultada de um grande desequilíbrio oclusal, onde não apenas a perda dos dentes pode ser o fator responsável, mas também as parafunções, entre elas, o bruxismo. O restabelecimento da relação maxilomandibular é condição necessária para que uma adequada reabilitação bucal seja executada, devolvendo, assim, função e estética perdidas. Objetivo: descrever um caso clínico de reabilitação em paciente bruxista, com presença de desgastes dentários, desgastes de tratamentos restauradores previamente existentes, fratura de onlay e bordas incisais, restabelecendo uma nova DVO por meio de onlays posteriores em cerômeros, recuperando a estética com restaurações diretas em resinas compostas nos dentes anteriores. Conclusões: a reabilitação bucal com levante de mordida em onlays devolve a DVO perdida de maneira segura.
