Presence of diastema between anterior teeth is often considered an onerous esthetic problem. Various treatment modalities are available for diastema closure. However, not all diastemas can be treated the same in terms of modality or timing. The extent and the etiology of the diastema must be properly evaluated. Proper case selection is of paramount importance for a successful treatment. In this case report, diastema closure was performed with direct composite restorations. One bottle etch-and-rinse adhesive was used and a single shade was used to close the diastemas. Contoured sectional posterior matrix was used to achieve anatomic contouring of the proximal surfaces of the teeth. This was followed by finishing and polishing using polishing discs. Patient was kept on recall every 6 months.Conclusion. Diastema closure with correct anatomic contouring is easy to perform using the contoured sectional matrices. At 14-month recall, no clinical signs of failure like discoloration or fracture were evident. Also, patient did not complain of any sensitivity. Thus, direct composite restorations serve as durable and highly esthetic restorations leading to complete patient satisfaction.

In dentistry, traumatic injuries are most common in the anterior teeth due to its anatomic position. The various treatment modalities have been used depending on the extent of injury on teeth and supporting structures. Esthetic concerns are the most important challenges in modern dental practice. Adhesive dentistry is an excellent approach regarding esthetics, especially for fractured anterior teeth. This case report describes the successful treatment of reattachment procedure in a 17-year-old male patient presented with a fractured maxillary left central incisor.

Catatonia is especially concerning in children and adolescents. It leads to significant impairment, including emotional distress, difficulty communicating, and other debilitating symptoms. In this case report, we discuss a patient with no previous history of neuroleptic medication or psychotic symptoms, presenting with first-episode catatonia in the presence of disorganized, psychotic thoughts. We then review the catatonia syndrome, citing examples in the literature supporting its underdiagnosis in children and adolescents, and discuss successful treatment modalities. It is important to diagnose and treat catatonia as efficiently as possible, to limit functional and emotional distress to the patient.

Incisor Hypomineralisation

Brief Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental condition resulting in enamel defects in first permanent molars and permanent incisors. Aesthetic treatment of patients suffering from MIH is essential to enhance their self-esteem and promote their psychological development. Current trends for treating the condition have been increasingly shifting towards minimally invasive approaches, especially considering the age of patients. The decision regarding which treatment modality to undertake for the same is complex and depends on several factors, such as the degree of severity of the enamel defect, the patient’s age, social level and expectations. Pertaining to that, the aim of this case report is to present three different aesthetic and conservative treatment approaches to anterior teeth affected by molar incisor hypomineralisation. Key Words Molar incisor hypomineralisation, aesthetic rehabilitation, minimally invasive, resin infiltration, cpp-acp.

SUMMARY Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the two-year clinical performance of Class III, IV, and V composite restorations using a two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system (2-ERA) and three one-step self-etching adhesive systems (1-SEAs). Material and Methods Two hundred Class III, IV, and V composite restorations were placed into 50 patients. Each patient received four composite restorations (Amaris, Voco), and these restorations were bonded with one of three 1-SEAs (Futurabond M, Voco; Clearfil S3 Bond, Kuraray; and Optibond All-in-One, Kerr) or one 2-ERA (Adper Single Bond 2/3M ESPE). The four adhesive systems were evaluated at baseline and after 24 months using the following criteria: restoration retention, marginal integrity, marginal discoloration, caries occurrence, postoperative sensitivity and preservation of tooth vitality. After two years, 162 restorations were evaluated in 41 patients. Data were analyzed using the χ2 test (p<0.05). Results There were no statistically significant differences between the 2-ERA and the 1-SEAs regarding the evaluated parameters (p>0.05). Conclusion The 1-SEAs showed good clinical performance at the end of 24 months.

The aim of this paper was to point out the possible etiology and prevention of endogenous dental erosions based on a case report. A patient (54) visited the Clinic for Dentistry of Vojvodina seeking treatment of general erosive changes localized on palatal surfaces of upper anterior teeth, occlusal and occlusal-buccal surfaces of lower molars and premolars. After the successful treatment of gastroesophageal reflux by a gastroenterologist, the restoration of damaged dental surfaces was undertaken. Main elements of the preventive protocol were: reduce intake or cut off the acid reflux, increase immune response, stimulate salivary production and remineralization. .

SummaryBackground/Aim: A problem of congenitally missing lateral incisors is frequently encountered in dentistry, with several available treatment modalities, the choice depending on each case. Case Report: A young female patient with bilateral missing lateral incisors was in need for dental treatment for esthetics. She had spacing among the upper anterior teeth with class I molar relationship. Orthodontic space creation was carried out followed by two-piece mini dental implant placement. Two-stage protocol was followed. After osseointegration, implants were exposed. Healing collars were installed to allow mucosal healing. Closed tray implant level impression was taken. Zirconium crowns were chosen for optimum esthetic results. Conclusions: Mini-implants can be used successfully for restoring congenitally missing lateral incisors after space opening. Esthetic results can be enhanced using Zirconium crowns

ABSTRACT Maxillary incisors are the most commonly involved teeth in traumatic injuries. As their esthetic and functional value is unequivocal, their treatment becomes major concern for both, the patient as well as the dentist. Various treatment modalities have been practiced for fractured anterior teeth, including composites, laminates, esthetic crown or the reattachment of fractured fragment. Among which fragment reattachment is considered to be the most conservative, natural and an esthetic approach. Reattachment of fragment could be the viable treatment option only when the tooth fragment is intact and having its good clinical approximation with the remaining tooth structure. In addition, the overall success of this treatment modality depends upon the fragment's extend of dehydration (time lapsed), patient cooperation and also the skill of the operator for such case selection. This article discusses the management of complicated crown fractures of anterior teeth which were managed successfully in a conservative manner.
