Perceptions of laypersons and orthodontists regarding the buccal corridor in long- and short-face individuals

Objective: To determine the perception of orthodontists and laypersons regarding the size of the dark spaces in the buccal corridors and how that affects smile esthetics in individuals with long and short faces.Materials and Methods: Images of eight smiling individuals were modified to create five sizes of dark spaces in the buccal corridors (2%, 10%, 15%, 22%, and 28%) and were submitted to a group of laypersons and a group of orthodontists.Results: Laypersons were more critical in their evaluation than orthodontists. Laypersons could not distinguish the gradation of dark spaces in the buccal corridor unless it was very plain. Orthodontists perceived this gradation beginning at 15%. Female evaluators were more critical than male evaluators in both groups.Conclusions: The presence or absence of dark spaces in the buccal corridors has little influence over smile esthetics. While this aspect must be considered in the orthodontic diagnosis, there is no justification for expanding the buccal corridor to eliminate dark spaces unless they are very evident.

Miniplacas de ancoragem no tratamento da mordida aberta anterior

INTRODUÇÃO: o relato de caso apresentado descreve um tratamento ortodôntico auxiliado por miniplacas, de uma paciente adulta que apresentava mordida aberta anterior acentuada, rotação horária da mandíbula, biprotrusão e ausência de selamento labial. Após a extração dos primeiros molares e retração dentária superior e inferior, associada ao controle vertical propiciado pelas placas, ocorreu uma pequena rotação anti-horária da mandíbula e a correção da mordida aberta anterior, com significativa melhora facial. OBJETIVO: o presente relato corrobora as evidências atuais quanto à eficiência do uso de miniplacas de titânio como ancoragem temporária, especialmente em situações de correções de grande amplitude, envolvendo um problema vertical.

The Art of Aidagara: Ethics, Aesthetics, and the Quest for an Ontology of Social Existence in Watsuji Tetsurō’s Rinrigaku

This paper provides an analysis of the key term aidagara (“betweenness”) in the philosophical ethics of Watsuji Tetsurō (1889-1960), in response to and in light of the recent movement in Japanese Buddhist studies known as “Critical Buddhism.” The Critical Buddhist call for a turn away from “topical” or intuitionist thinking and towards (properly Buddhist) “critical” thinking, while problematic in its bipolarity, raises the important issue of the place of “reason” versus “intuition” in Japanese Buddhist ethics. In this paper, a comparison of Watsuji’s “ontological quest” with that of Martin Heidegger (1889-1976), Watsuji’s primary Western source and foil, is followed by an evaluation of a corresponding search for an “ontology of social existence” undertaken by Tanabe Hajime (1885-1962). Ultimately, the philosophico-religious writings of Watsuji Tetsurō allow for the “return” of aesthesis as a modality of social being that is truly dimensionalized, and thus falls prey neither to the verticality of topicalism nor the limiting objectivity of criticalism.
