REVIEW
Konrad Meyenberg
In restorative dentistry, the non-vital tooth and its restoration have been extensively studied from both its structural and esthetic aspects. The restoration of endodontically treated teeth has much in common with modern implantology: both must include multifaceted biological, biomechanical and esthetic considerations with a profound understanding of materials and techniques; both are technique sensitive and both require a multidisciplinary approach. And for both, two fundamental principles from team sports apply well: firstly, the weakest link determines the limits, and secondly, it is a very long way to the top, but a very short way to failure...

PURPOSE: To measure the influence of light activation, color pigments and extended application time on the in vitro bleaching efficacy of a hydrogen peroxide bleaching agent. METHODS: Ninety-six 2.5 mm thick bovine enamel and dentin samples were selected for the study. Samples were stained in a tea solution for three days and then randomly divided into three groups. Bleaching was performed with a 35% hydrogen peroxide gel containing different color pigments. Red pigments were used in group one, black pigments were used in group two, and no pigments (transparent gel) in group three...

Bin Yu, Young-Keun Lee
PURPOSE: To evaluate translucency, fluorescence and opalescence stabilities of direct and indirect composite resins after aging. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One direct (16 shades) and two indirect composite resins (16 and 26 shades) were investigated. Resins were filled in a mold (1 mm thick) and light cured; post-curings were performed for indirect resins. Color was measured before and after 5,000 cycles of thermocycling on a reflection spectrophotometer in reflectance and transmittance modes to calculate parameters for translucency (TP), fluorescence (FL) and opalescence (OP)...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the color, translucency and fluorescence of bovine enamel and dentin submitted to different bleaching modalities. Pairs of enamel and dentin discs (3 mm in diameter) were obtained from 150 bovine teeth. In 75 of the pairs, one specimen had the enamel removed (Dentin Group). The dentin was removed from one specimen of the remaining 75 pairs (Enamel Group) and the other specimen was left unaltered (Enamel + Dentin). The evaluation of color, translucency and fluorescence was performed with a spectrophotometer using the CIE L* a* b*...

BACKGROUND: As visual shade matching is subject to light source variables, this study was conducted to compare shade matching performance of dental students under two lighting conditions, ie, natural daylight and a commercially available daylight lamp. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two sets of porcelain discs were prepared. The first set consisted of eight porcelain discs of shades A2, A3, A3.5, B2, B3, C2, C3, and D3 of the Vitapan Classical Shade Guide system. The second set consisted of three porcelain discs of shade A2, B2, and C2, having exactly similar L*a*b* values to those of the corresponding shade discs in the first set...

Enamel white spot lesions are frequent and can impact patients' quality of life. The most conservative treatment in such cases is microabrasion, a technique that presents some drawbacks. The proposed strategy is not based on the elimination of dysplastic enamel, but on masking the lesion by infiltrating the porous subsurface enamel with a hydrophobic resin that has a refraction index closer to that of sound enamel, after permeating the non-porous surface enamel through hydrochloric acid erosion. Erosion-infiltration approaches have been proposed to treat initial caries, but this report suggests extending it to two novel indications: fluorosis and traumatic hypo-mineralization lesions...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Giovanni Tommaso Rocca, Ivo Krejci
Coronal rehabilitation of endodontically treated posterior teeth is still a controversial issue. Although the classical crown supported by radicular metal posts remains widely spread in dentistry, its invasiveness has been largely criticized. New materials and therapeutic options based entirely on adhesion are nowadays available. They allow performing a more conservative, faster and less expensive dental treatment. All clinical cases presented in this paper are solved by using these modern techniques, from direct composite restorations to indirect endocrowns...

This research has been carried out to transmit a multidisciplinary knowledge of esthetics in society and in the field of science (psychology, sociology, philosophy, medicine, art, ethics). This knowledge is necessary to ensure that esthetic doctors who deal with esthetic medicine may, through their intervention - which is not only analytical, but also creative - respecting human nature, people's esthetic expectations and the rules of social ethics. This is the only way we can best respond to the overall concept referred to as the human dimension...

Composite resins are the most commonly used materials in restorative dentistry. When first introduced in dental practice, they began to change the esthetic approach to anterior teeth treatments. At first they simply represented a 'white' alternative to unesthetic materials. Today, the clinician can select different materials depending on the characteristics required, such as opalescence, fluorescence, translucency, transparency, viscosity, elasticity, and, obviously, shade. It is no longer a mere matter of selecting the right single syringe...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Giovanni Zucchelli, Massimo De Sanctis
BACKGROUND: Unfavorable conditions at the soft tissues adjacent to a recession defect may preclude performing pedicle flaps (advanced or rotational) both as a root coverage procedure, and as a covering flap for a connective tissue graft. Free gingival grafts may not be recommended because of the low root coverage predictability and the poor esthetic outcome. The goal of the present case report is to suggest modifications of the two-stage surgical technique aimed at improving root coverage and esthetic outcomes, and reducing patient morbidity...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Ignazio Loi, Antonello Di Felice
Tooth preparations for fixed prosthetic restorations can be done in different ways, basically of two kinds: preparation with a defined margin and the so-called vertical preparation or feather edge. The latter was originally used for prosthetics on teeth treated with resective surgery for periodontal disease. In this article, the author presents a prosthetic technique for periodontally healthy teeth using feather edge preparation in a flapless approach in both esthetic and posterior areas with ceramometal and zirconia restorations, achieving high quality clinical and esthetic results in terms of soft tissue stability at the prosthetic/tissue interface, both in the short and in the long term (clinical follow-up up to fifteen years)...

INTRODUCTION: Each facial feature might affect the perception of the balance of the other features so the whole of the face must be considered in facial evaluation. There are no studies that have examined the effect of forehead and neck position on profile esthetics. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of forehead and neck positions on profile esthetics judged by lay people, dental students and art students. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A straight silhouette (black right-facing profile in white background) was digitally manipulated to make variations of profiles...

External beauty is a complex construct that influences lives and may be impacted by dentists. Beauty is not easily quantified, but one cited anthropometric of beauty is the ratio phi, the number 1.618033(...). This study examined phi as a measure of female frontal facial beauty in classic Western art, using pre- Renaissance (N = 30), and Renaissance (N = 30) artwork. Four horizontal and five vertical ratios were determined in the works of art, which were then compared with the phi ratio. All horizontal ratios for both pre-Renaissance and Renaissance artwork were similar to each other, but did not contain the phi ratio (P < 0...
