Achieving excellence in anterior rehabilitations requires close cooperation between the periodontist and the prosthodontist. Many techniques can be used to restore the lost alveolar hard and soft tissues. The more severe the peri-implant defect, the higher the challenge and lower the predictability of the procedure. The present case consists of Seibert Class III with malaligned implants in the esthetic zone resolved with a cost-modified treatment plan to reestablish esthetics in the anterior maxilla using a rotated palatal flap. The vascularized interpositional periosteal connective tissue graft was effective in augmenting the soft tissue in the esthetic zone and remained stable over a 2-year period. Additional long-term clinical studies are necessary to support these results.

This report compares and evaluates the treatment outcomes of regenerative endodontic treatment and apical plug as two accepted treatment protocols in a pair of necrotic immature maxillary central incisors of a 12-year old female. The patient was referred complaining of a dull pain and swelling in her upper lip area. She had a history of trauma to the anterior maxilla two years earlier. Both teeth were clinically diagnosed with pulp necrosis and periapical radiographs revealed that separate periapical radiolucent lesions surrounded the immature apices of both teeth. The left and right incisors were treated with apical plug and regenerative endodontic treatment, respectively, using calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement. The patient was followed-up for three years. During this period, both teeth were clinically asymptomatic and showed complete radiographic healing of the periapical lesions. The right central incisor showed root development. No tooth discoloration was evident. Apexification by apical plug placement and pulp regeneration are both reliable treatments for immature non-vital teeth. In order to choose the right treatment the advantages of either technique should be weighed against its drawbacks. CEM cement can be successfully applied for both purposes. This biomaterial causes less discoloration of the tooth.

External inflammatory root resorption (EIRR) is one of the consequences of pulp necroses caused by intrusive dislocation (ID). The objective of the study was to report a clinical case of ID associated with EIRR, which was submitted to late endodontic treatment. Patient came to the dental office five months after a trauma with a clinical picture of intrusive dislocation of tooth 21 associated with pulp necrosis, but without symptoms. Radiographic examination showed an image compatible with EIRR along root surface. The treatment plan was to undergo endodontic treatment with calcium hydroxide changes which occurred monthly for 8 months. When EIRR stopped, the root canal was filled. After clinical and radiographic follow up for 5 years, there was an involution of the damage caused by the clastic activity resulting from the resorptive process, characterizing the success of the instituted therapy.

The article presents a clinical case of the prosthodontic treatment of the mandible edentulousness. Edentulousness is a widespread pathology that depends on the social and economic situation in the country, the demographic situation, the level of dental care and prevention organization. The current worldwide trend of population aging leads to an increase in the number of the elderly, and this number is expected to increase in the future. According to the WHO, today about 600 million people are people over 60, and this number will have doubled by 2030 and will constitute 2 billion in 2050 mostly in developed countries. The situation in Ukraine is not better. Functional and aesthetic rehabilitation of patients with edentulousness requires a comprehensive approach to the prosthodontic treatment planning. Complete removable laminar dentures on the mandible have a number of disadvantages. Insufficient fixation, stabilization, diction problems, aesthetic problems, decreased self-esteem of the patient are among the key ones. Modern protocols of the prosthodontic treatment require the manufacture of dental prostheses based on intraosseous dental implants. Complete dentures based on intraosseous dental implants have a number of advantages over the fixed dentures. Compensation for deficient bone support of the facial soft tissues occurs by means of the basis. Patients’ possibility to remove a secondary restoration by themselves lead to proper hygiene of the oral cavity and peri-implant area in particular. The clinical research conducted by S. Wolfart (2016) showed the possibility of fixed/removable dental prosthesis fixation in 14-31 days (early loading) after the surgical stage of implantation provided that 4-6 intraosseous dental implants were installed. The maximum mobilization of the patient to comply with the recommendations and prescriptions is the main task considering the limited postoperative period before the dental prosthesis fixation. Our publication describes the treatment of a patient born in 1967, who was diagnosed with a mandible complete absence of teeth. Diagnosis, examination and treatment were performed on the basis of the Department of Dentistry Postgraduate Education of Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University. The described prosthodontic treatment plan involves the manufacture of a complete denture with bar system based on four intraosseous dental implants according to the early loading protocol in a patient with primary treatment of mandible edentulousness. The choice of treatment plan was based on the results of past medical history, the patient’s disease, basic and additional methods of examination, analysis of individual indications and contraindications and readiness for the selected treatment plan. This treatment protocol has its advantages over the protocol of manufacturing a fixed prosthesis based on intraosseous dental implants such as a higher level of proprioceptive sensations, increased level of hygiene, lower complexity of clinical and laboratory stages, affordability. The term of clinical and laboratory stages of manufacturing (from the surgical stage of implant treatment to the fixation of the dental prosthesis) constituted 16 days. Additional opportunities for success in clinical and laboratory stages of treatment, the accuracy of manufacture and minimization of complications in the future were created as a result of the combination of digital and analog treatment methods in dental prosthesis manufacturing.

A 44-year-old male patient was referred to the Egas Moniz Dental Clinic, with a previous history of failed bone regeneration, resulting in a reduced buccal-palatal bone thickness and aesthetic compromise of the gingival margin of the anterior maxilla. Since the use of autologous bone is considered the “gold-standard” in guided bone regeneration, the treatment plan consisted of an autologous mental graft into the maxilla, with a simultaneous guided bone regeneration with a xenograft and absorbable membrane. This allowed a predictable volumetric bone regeneration with low patient morbidity and posterior fixed rehabilitation.

ABSTRACT Successful prosthetic reconstruction of hemimaxillectomy defects is a challenging procedure that requires multidisciplinary expertize to achieve acceptable function, speech and esthetics. Rehabilitation of an acquired maxillary defect improves the quality of life for the patient as close to normal as possible. Obturation of the defect depends on its volume and position of remaining hard and soft tissues, to be utilized for retention, stability and support for the prosthesis. The prosthesis should be simple to handle, easy to maintain, biocompatible, light in weight and convenient for future adjustments. This case report describes a clinical case of subtotal maxillectomy, which was successfully rehabilitated with a hollow bulb obturator. How to cite this article Rani G, Gambhir A. Prosthodontic Rehabilitation of a Patient with Subtotal Maxillectomy using a Hollow Bulb Obturator. Int J Prosthodont Restor Dent 2012; 2(1):24-28.
