[Agenesis of the upper lateral incisor: orthodontic therapy and replacement].

In this paper the Authors outline an uneven prevalence of superior lateral incisors agenesis. The treatment of this situation can be accomplished by various methods. It is possible to obtain the complete closure of dental spaces or maintain the physiological space. The Authors present four cases of young patients in which they decided to maintain orthodontically the space and to put them adhesive bridges.

[Mounting posterior teeth in complete dentures].

The more common techniques for analysing the alveolar ridge in full dentures were examined. Both the linear analysis and the two-dimensional one, proposed by Pound, were described. The ridge-transfer method was found to be three-dimensional, thus allowing the construction of full dentures which are more stable during each phase of mastication.

Use of osseointegrated implants for replacement of single teeth.

This article uses clinical examples to show applications of single tooth replacements. With coordinated planning and efforts on the part of the surgeon and the restorative dentist, optimum results, both esthetically and functionally, can be achieved in treating these partially edentulous patients.

Osseointegrated implants--principles and practice: 2. Prosthetic rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants.

In this series of three articles the authors describe some of the principles and practice of osseointegrated implants. Part 1 gave a detailed description of the surgical techniques required to establish osseointegrated implant fixtures (with special reference to the Branemark system), and gave guidance on patient selection and treatment planning. Part 2 now considers prosthetic rehabilitation techniques with osseointegrated implants for complete dentures, complete overdentures, partial bridges, and single tooth replacement cases. Part 3 will conclude the series by presenting a number of case studies.

[Clinical validation of the caries preventive effect of mouth rinses with a mineralizing solution on the recently erupted permanent dentition].

This research was performed with the purpose of learning about effect of oral rinsing, every two weeks, with mineralizing solution (Minersol) on recently erupted permanent dentition. Reduction obtained in the incidence of caries at one year term ranged between 49.2 and 82.1% for first molar teeth and 23.4 and 36.3% for second molar teeth; both differences were significant, but no reduction was obtained in the incidence of caries in the bicuspid teeth. Preventing effect obtained is attributed to ionic incorporation in enamel superficial levels, which decreases the diffusion of acids acting in demineralization. It is concluded that the use of mineralizing solution in those ages of eruption of permanent dentition reduces incidence of caries and, therefore, its use as preventing method is recommended.

In vitro interaction between gingival fibroblasts and various root surfaces.

The objective of the present in vitro study was to examine the effect of various root surface treatments on the initial attachment of gingival fibroblasts. Cultured fibroblasts were well spread and attached to demineralized dentin with citric acid, superficially curetted cementum, and root surface with periodontal ligament, while those on the planed dentin showed a poorly spread appearance. The first three root surfaces exhibited rough and irregular surface appearances with a well-developed filopodia and the latter root surface exhibited a smooth appearance, suggesting the texture of the root surface is closely associated with cell attachment. Interiorized collagen fibrils and numerous cytoplasmic vesicles were seen along the cell membrane of fibroblasts facing the root surfaces of the planed dentin, demineralized dentin, and superficially curetted cementum. Thus even the artificially exposed tooth surface with citric acid may be subjected to further alteration by fibroblasts.
