Implant Technique

Mandibular overdenture dentures retained by two implants are viable options for oral rehabilitation of elderly patients. Different types of implant components are used for retention of these prostheses in the mouth, with the ball component being the most used. The aim of this study is to present a small variation of the conventional two-implant technique using the ball-type component by adding an implant and also replacing the component with a locator type (Neodent) for retention of the mandibular prosthesis.

Abstract Aim The aim of the documentation of this clinical case is to make clinicians aware of “meth mouth” and the medical risks associated with this serious condition. Background Methamphetamine is a very addictive, powerful stimulant that increases wakefulness and physical activity and can produce other effects such as cardiac dysrhythmias, hypertension, hallucinations, and violent behavior. Dental patients abusing methamphetamine can present with poor oral hygiene, xerostomia, rampant caries (“meth mouth”), and excessive tooth wear. Oral rehabilitation of patients using methamphetamine can be challenging. Case Description A 30-year-old Caucasian woman presented with dental pain, bad breath, and self-reported poor esthetics. A comprehensive examination including her medical history, panoramic radiograph, and intraoral examination revealed 19 carious lesions, which is not very common for a healthy adult. She reported her use of methamphetamine for five years and had not experienced any major carious episodes before she started using the drug. Summary The patient's medical and dental histories along with radiographic and clinical findings lead to a diagnosis of “meth mouth.” Although three different dental treatment modalities (either conventional or implantsupported) have been offered to the patient since August 2007, the patient has yet to initiate any treatment. Clinical Significance This clinical case showing oral manifestations of meth mouth was presented to help dental practitioners recognize and manage patients who may be abusing methamphetamines. Dental practitioners also may be skeptical about the reliability of appointment keeping by these patients, as they frequently miss their appointments without reasonable justification.

Mesenchymal tumors of the colon and rectum are extremely rare and do not have specific clinical manifestations, their diagnosis and staging cause certain difficulties.Different types of mesenchymal tumors differ in prognosis and choice of the treatment. It explains the importance of differential diagnosis of these neoplasms among themselves and tumors-derivatives of other embryonic structures.The article describes the clinical case of a rare mesenchymal tumor and management of the patient.

Facial Dysmorphia

This article describes rehabilitation of one case, complex psychiatric treatment, facial asimetry, with mandibular and maxilla missing teeth and dental disharmony, with a fixed and also removable hybrid prosthesis.Rehabilitation with fixed or removable prosthesis is even more challenging when the edentulous span is long and the ridge is irregular deformities and unfavorable biomechanics encountered at the prosthetic field for complex rehabilitation. In such situation, a fixed-removable prosthesis allows favorable biomechanical stress distribution along with restoration of esthetics, phonetics, comfort, hygiene, and better postoperative care and maintenance.

IntroductionHyponatremia is one of the electrolytic disorders most comonly observed among general hospitalized populations (2% of hospitalized patients). A form of hyponatremia is the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secrection (SIADH). One of its diverse causes is medication. Selective serotonine reuptake inhibitors (ISRSs) can cause hyponatremia due to SIADH, particularly among elderly population.Clinical case reportA 81-year-old female treated with paroxetine 20 mg/day because of depression. Two weeks later she starts feeling nausea, somnolence and motor inhibition. The sodium level previous to the onset of treatment was normal but after two weeks it has decreased to 121 mEq/L, pointing to SIADH induced by ISRSs.DiscussionThe incidence of hyponatremia among elderly patients treated with antidepressants of ISRSs class has increased. The prevalence varies between 0.5 and 25%. Although half of the patients are asymptomatic, the mortality is rate may reach 25%. It generally develops during the first month of treatment and is reversible between 2 and 28 days after the suspension of the ISRSs.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Nowadays, taking into account the number of elderly patients with sеveral associated diseases requiring percutaneous transluminal balloon coronary angioplasty (PTCA), the risk of the development of unwanted complications is also growing. In this article we present the clinical case, where the PTCA had complications with myocardial infarction of the 4a type without contrast-induced acute kidney injury (contrast-induced nephropathy).

Introdução: A displasia ectodérmica é uma patologia genética rara, na sua maioria monogênica recessiva, que ocorre no tecido ectodérmico, acarretando alterações nas estruturas anatômicas derivadas de tal tecido. Dessa maneira, afeta unhas, pelos, cabelos, pele, dentes, glândulas salivares e glândulas sudoríparas. Objetivo: Relatar o tratamento odontológico reabilitador protético de duas crianças portadoras de displasia ectodérmica. Relato de caso: Duas crianças com displasia ectodérmica hipo-hidrótica compareceram ao serviçode referência para tratamento reabilitador de anomalias craniofaciais congênitas, no município de Curitiba, Paraná, para atendimento. Ao exame clínico verificou-se, além de pele e cabelos ressecados, anodontia total. O plano de tratamento odontológico proposto foi reabilitação com próteses totais dentárias, para melhorar a função mastigatória, psicológica e estética dessas crianças. Conclusão: A reabilitação protética dentária de crianças com displasia ectodérmica é uma possibilidade para o restabelecimento de suas funções eestética, porém, em idade precoce, constitui um desafio para o cirurgião-dentista, em razão da pouca cooperação e entendimento do paciente. Dessa maneira, constata-se que a participação e o interesse dos pais são essenciais para a adaptação da criança e o sucesso do tratamento
