A double-mix cementation for improved esthetics of resin-bonded prostheses.

An efficient technique is described for reducing incisal discoloration of abutment teeth without creating a cement line. One disadvantage is the need for both opaque and tooth-colored translucent resin cements, but the complex procedure can be facilitated by increasing the working time of the resin cements.

An esthetic denture clasp for maxillary canine teeth.

The clasp was relatively unobtrusive and resembled a small gold restoration (Fig. 1). The use of a noble alloy provided a clasp that was retentive and also resilient with a good yield strength, therefore the likelihood of failure in service was minimal. The process of soldering to a cobalt-chrome framework was simple. Alternatively, the connecting component of the clasp could be incorporated within resin if an acrylic major connector was used.

[Basics of esthetic and functional cephalometric analysis of the profile].

We report a new cephalometric method for profile analysis, which uses strictly exobasicranial landmarks: 13 anatomic points, 9 bone points and 4 skin points. The analysis is based on phylogenetic, ontogenetic, anatomic and biomechanical data. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that the occipital plate belongs more to the cranial vault than the base of the skull. Embryology shows that on the midline the facial skull base ends at the spheno-occipital suture and that the overall skull base ends at the basion. The pre-maxillary fuses rapidly to the maxillary, while the pterygoid processes, which belong to the face and not the skull base, fusion very rapidly to the skull base. Revisiting the anatomy of the facial skull base shows that it is prolonged posteriorly medially to meast the synostosic creast and latterally to the glenoid fossae. Further anatomic analysis shows that the dentate and muscular part of the superior level of the facial mass correspond to equivalent parts of the inferior mandibular level. The biomechanical analysis reveals that the anterior pillar passes through the pre-maxillary, ending on the supra-orbital border and the glabella and as such belongs to the face. The posterior pillar follows the pterygoid process ending in the sphenoid. The glabella and these two pillars are taken into account in this new analysis technique.

[Microsurgery and esthetic considerations. Two cases of heel reconstruction].

With two case reports of heel reconstruction on female patients the authors report the advantages and drawbacks of the two main types of reconstruction: free or regional flaps. Regional flaps are technically easy and reliable but their aesthetic after-effects on the donor site may be disabling, specially on the leg of a female patient. Microsurgery is technically more difficult and presents more complications specially on the lower limb. However, in certain conditions, and with the appropriate choice of donor site, free flaps authorize good quality reconstructions with minimal aesthetic after-effects.

[Esthetics of the lips].

The authors describe the up to date surgical techniques to improve and rejuvenate the buccal area. But the lips are only a part of the face and sometimes, to get a balanced and harmonious results the lip improvement is included in a facial rejuvenation program.
