The advent of new technologies in the field of medicine and dentistry is giving improvements that lead the clinicians to have materials and procedures able to improve patients’ quality of life. In dentistry, the last digital techniques offer a fully digital computerized workflow that does not include the standard multiple traditional phases. The purpose of this study is to evaluate all clinical trials and clinical randomized trials related to the digital or dental impression technique in prosthetic dentistry trying to give the readers global information about advantages and disadvantages of each procedure. Data collection was conducted in the main scientific search engines, including articles from the last 10 years, in order to obtain results that do not concern obsolete impression techniques. Elsevier, Pubmed and Embase have been screened as sources for performing the research. The results data demonstrated how the working time appears to be improved with digital workflow, but without a significant result (P = 0.72596). The papers have been selected following the Population Intervention Comparison Outcome (PICO) question, which is related to the progress on dental impression materials and technique. The comparison between dentists or practitioners with respect to classic impression procedures, and students open to new device and digital techniques seem to be the key factor on the final impression technique choice. Surely, digital techniques will end up supplanting the analogical ones altogether, improving the quality of oral rehabilitations, the economics of dental practice and also the perception by our patients.

Abstract. According to conclusions of ITI World Congress (2018), the accuracy of the dental impression determines the quality of the working model and, consequently, the fixation of the prosthetic restorations at the final stage. Inaccurate dental impression will inevitably lead to technical and biological complications (Wolfart S., 2016). According to Lee and co-authors (2019), the accuracy of the dental impression is influenced by the chosen method, namely closed or open tray, the presence or absence of transfers splinting and the choice of impression material type. The most accurate impression has been proved to be an impression taken with the use of an open tray impression technique, by means of polyether impression material with preliminary transfers splinting using internally interfaced implant system. The objective of the research was to evaluate the quality of implants placement transferring to the model by comparative analysis of different methods of clinical transfers splinting in order to take impressions using an open tray impression technique. Twelve clinical situations were studied. Four groups were formed according to the method of transfer splinting. Each group included 3 clinical cases. Impressions were taken with the use of an open tray impression technique in all clinical cases with preliminary custom-made trays with holes in the implants projections. A grading scale was created when assessing the quality of transfer splinting as a key factor in the accuracy of implant placement transferring. Each of the groups received from 1 to 4 points where 1 point was the worst result according to this criterion and 4 points meant the best one. Among the criteria for splinting quality evaluation, 1-3 criteria were considered to be subjective, criterion 4 was considered to be objective. Therefore, criterion 4 received coefficient ×2 in order to increase the objectivity of the results evaluation. There were 4 criteria: The simplicity of the technique and the time spent splinting. The cost of the technique. Passivity when fixing the bridge prosthetic restoration after manufacturing. Radiologically measured distance between the centers of implant analogues on the model relative to each other after an impression taking by means of different splinting techniques and deviation of the value from the position of the centers of implants heads tops after osseointegration according to CT scan. Analyzing the results of the research, splinting techniques were ranked according to the obtained points. Research group 1 scored 6 points using dental floss and flowable compomer. A considerable amount of time was spent splinting with relatively inexpensive technology. The passivity of the fixation was the worst in comparison with other methods and the largest error was determined radiographically. Group 4 scoring 17 points was determined as the best of the chosen techniques. Despite the high cost of the chosen technique, prosthetic restorations made after transfers splinting by means of this technique had the highest fixation accuracy and the lowest deviation of the implants analogues on the model radiographically in comparison with the position of the implants in the upper alveolar ridge and lower alveolar ridge due to the cost of the material based on poly-vinyl siloxane.

There are many steps in fabrication of dental crowns and bridges at which an error can occur, and a technician can only fabricate a quality restoration if the impression itself is of adequate quality. All dental practitioners should have the ability to evaluate the quality of dental impression before sending to the laboratory. Elastomeric silicones (polysiloxane) are the most utilised impression materials in dental practice. The present study deal with the deficiencies of silicones dental impressions sent to commercial dental laboratories for fabrication of single crowns and bridges.

Abstract Background Fixed prosthodontics require an accurate impression for the teeth and the area to be restored for the laboratory to fabricate the desired restoration without mistakes. This study evaluated the quality of impressions received by private laboratories for the fabrication of fixed prosthesis by describing the frequency of clinically detectable errors and by analyzing association between the various factors involved. Methods 165 impressions were collected from four dental laboratories. Jaw involved, type of tray, size of tray, number of prepared units, type of impression materials, techniques and viscosity in case of elastomeric impressions and type of prosthesis requested were recorded. Data referring to errors and visible defects including errors in finish line, in preparation area, in silicone impression technique and blood in impression were also documented. Factors affecting errors present were also assessed. Association between dentist gender and experience years and impression errors was assessed. Chi square and Fisher exact tests used to examine the association between categorical variables and outcomes. Results The total of error considering not immediately pouring as an error. Alginate was the most impression used. of impressions evaluated (50.9%), 97% were have at least one visible error; 92.1% had errors in finish line, 53.9% had errors in preparation area and (72.8%) of elastomeric impressions were have at least one error in technique. Blood in impression was detected in 52.1% of impressions. Significant association was found between material type and errors in finishing line and preparation area. Significant relationships were found between gender and errors in silicone impression technique (p < 0.05). Conclusion Within the limitations of this study, high frequency of detectable errors was found in fixed prosthesis impressions received by private dental laboratories. This high frequency is of serious concern, as this will result in poor fitted fixed prosthesis provided to patients.

Aim. The aim of this work is to describe a case of immediate implant placement after extraction of the upper right first premolar, with the use of CAD/CAM technology, which allows an early digital impression of the implant site with an intraoral scanner (MHT 3D Progress, Verona, Italy).Case Report. A 46-year-old female was referred with a disorder caused by continuous debonding of the prosthetic crown on the upper right first premolar. Clinically, there were no signs, and the evaluation of the periapical radiograph showed a fracture of the root, with a mesial well-defined lesion of the hard tissue of the upper right first premolar, as the radiolucent area affected the root surface of the tooth. It was decided, in accordance with the patient, that the tooth would be extracted and the implant (Primer, Edierre implant system, Genoa, Italy) with diameter of 4.2 mm and length of 13 mm would be inserted. After the insertion of the implant, it was screwed to the scan abutment, and a scan was taken using an intraoral scanner (MHT 3D Progress, Verona, Italy). The scanned images were processed with CAD/CAM software (Exocad DentalCAD, Darmstadt, Germany) and the temporary crown was digitally drawn (Dental Knowledge, Milan, Italy) and then sent to the milling machine for production with a composite monoblock. After 4 months, when the implant was osteointegrated, it was not necessary to take another dental impression, and the definitive crown could be screwed in.Conclusion. The CAD/CAM technology is especially helpful in postextraction implant for aesthetic rehabilitation, as it is possible to immediately fix a provisional crown with an anatomic shape that allows an optimal healing process of the tissues. Moreover, the removal of healing abutments, and the use of impression copings, impression materials, and dental stone became unnecessary, enabling the reduction of the chair time, component cost, and patient’s discomfort. However, it is still necessary for scientific research to continue to carry out studies on this procedure, in order to improve the accuracy, the reliability, and the reproducibility of the results.

The diverse viscosities of silicone impression materials are suited for their use in various impression techniques, intended to improve the precision of the cast impression in the form of a plaster model. The purpose of this research is to determine the dimensional stability and accuracy of the double-phase impression technique in 1 step and 2 steps by using a condensation silicone impression material. This research was carried out by using a precise stainless-steel master model and an individual aluminum tray. Comparing the abutments of the master model and the abutments of the double-phase impression technique in 2 steps, showed that they are wider on average 81 µm, while the abutments from the double-phase impression technique in 1 step are on average 281 µm wider in diameter. After analyzing the results obtained in relation to the diameter of the abutments, it can be concluded that the double-phase impression technique in 2 steps is dimensionally more stable and accurate compared to the double-phase impression technique in 1 step. This study shows that dimensional stability and accuracy of impression materials also depend on the selection of appropriate impression technique and proper performance in order to obtain a high quality dental impression that will be the basis for an accurate fixed-prosthodontic fabrication.

Introduction: Taking an impression of the oral cavity, which accurately recreates the prosthetic field, the surrounding hard dental and soft tissues, is one of the main and most important stages in the process of making any fixed prosthetic restoration. In modern prosthetic dentistry, impressions taken with the help of polyether and vinyl polysiloxane impression materials are common. Digital impressions eliminate some of the steps of conventional impression techniques and save clinical time. Aim: The aim of this article is to compare the clinical time in digital and conventional impression techniques from a whole dental arch using a controlled clinical trial. Material and methods: The present study includes 36 patients from Varna who need prosthetic treatment with fixed 3-unit bridge construction. For all participants, the conventional impression technique was performed first and one week later - the digital one. All clinical manipulations related to the implementation of the two impression techniques were performed according to the instructions of the manufacturing companies by the same specialist dentist. Results: In all participants, the time required to perform the digital impression technique is significantly less than that of the conventional impression technique. Conclusion: The digital impression technique has proven to be more efficient in terms of clinical time required for its implementation than the conventional impression technique.

The Internet Of Things

With new technologies coming to the market, the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the technologies that has gained exponential rise by facilitating Machine to Machine (M2M) communication and bringing smart devices closer to end users. By 2025, it is expected that IoT will bring together 78.4 billion of devices, thus improving the quality of life beyond our imagination; however, there are multiple potential challenges, such as the exploitation of energy consumption and the huge data traffic being generated by smart devices causing congestion and utilizing more bandwidth. Various researchers have provided an alternative to this problem by performing offloading of data, the task and computational requirements of an application at edge and fog nodes of IoT, thus helping to overcome latency issues for critical applications. Despite the importance of an offloading approach in IoT, there is need for a systematic, symmetric, comprehensive, and detailed survey in this field. This paper provides a systematic literature review (SLR) on data offloading approaches in IoT network at edge and fog nodes in the form of a classical taxonomy in order to recognize the state-of-the art mechanism(s) associated with this important topic and provide open consideration of issues as well. All of the research on classified offloading approaches done by researchers is compared with each other according to important factors such as performance metrics, utilized techniques, and evaluation tools, and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Finally, an efficient smart architecture-based framework is proposed to handle the symmetric data offloading issues.
