Tooth Anatomy

2.3K
The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

Hemodialysis II: Procedure and Complications

954
DialyzersA hemodialysis (HD) dialyzer is a plastic cartridge containing thousands of parallel hollow fibers, which serve as semipermeable membranes. These fibers are typically made from cellulose-based or other synthetic materials. During HD, blood is pumped into the top of the cartridge and distributed among these fibers. Simultaneously, dialysis fluid, known as dialysate, is introduced into the bottom of the cartridge, bathing the outside of the fibers. Across the semipermeable membrane,...

Dietary Connections

In biological systems, most metabolic pathways are interconnected. The cellular respiration processes that convert glucose to ATP—such as glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, and the citric acid cycle—tie into those that break down other organic compounds. As a result, various foods—from apples to cheese to guacamole—end up as ATP. In addition to carbohydrates, food also contains proteins and lipids—such as cholesterol and fats. All of these organic compounds are used...

Diabetes: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Complications

2.4K
For most patients, experiencing several weeks of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, and significant weight loss may indicate the presence of diabetes. Furthermore, adults displaying the phenotypic appearance of type 2 diabetes (particularly those who are obese and not initially insulin-requiring), may have islet cell autoantibodies, suggesting autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction and a diagnosis of latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). The categorization of glucose homeostasis is...

Asthma, a common chronic respiratory condition, is classified considering the frequency and severity of symptoms alongside lung function impairment. Understanding this classification is essential for appropriate treatment and management. Here's a detailed look at the classification of asthma and its clinical features and complications:

Summary

Morse-taper connection implants show high long-term success for single-tooth replacements, with a 15-year cumulative implant survival rate (CISR%) of 94.8% and a cumulative implant-crown success rate (CICSR%) of 94.5%. Prosthetic complications were infrequent.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Implantology
  • Prosthodontics
  • Biomaterials Science

Background:

  • Single-tooth gaps present a common restorative challenge in dentistry.
  • Morse-taper connection implants offer a specific design for dental restorations.
  • Long-term data on the performance of these implants in single-tooth applications are crucial for clinical decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term cumulative implant survival rate (CISR%) of single-tooth Morse-taper connection implants.
  • To assess the cumulative implant-crown success rate (CICSR%) for these restorations.
  • To document the incidence of prosthetic complications associated with Morse-taper connection implants over a 5- to 15-year follow-up period.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study analyzed patient records from two dental centers (2002-2012).
  • Data included patient demographics, implant details, and restoration information.
  • Life-table analysis was employed to determine CISR% and CICSR%, with peri-implant marginal bone resorption (PIMBR) as a secondary outcome.

Main Results:

  • A total of 612 Morse-taper connection implants in 578 patients were evaluated.
  • The 15-year CISR% was 94.8%, and the 15-year CICSR% was 94.5%.
  • The incidence of prosthetic complications was low at 1.5%, and PIMBR was within acceptable limits at follow-up points.

Conclusions:

  • Morse-taper connection implants demonstrate reliability for long-term single-tooth replacement.
  • High survival and success rates, coupled with a low complication rate, support their use.
  • These findings indicate a favorable long-term prognosis for Morse-taper implants in single-tooth restorations.
