Damit der Zahnhalteapparat gesund bleibt, müssen Restaurationen in mehreren Bereichen kritisch behandelt werden, damit sie mit den sie umgebenden parodontalen Geweben in Einklang stehen. Eine gesunde Koexistenz zwischen Zahnrestaurationen und den sie umgebenden Strukturen sollte das Ziel des gewissenhaften Zahnarztes und die Erwartung des informierten Patienten sein. Kliniker müssen parodontale und restaurative Verfahren in koordinierter Weise kombinieren, um das beste klinische Ergebnis zu erzielen. Ein sorgfältig ausgearbeiteter interdisziplinärer Ansatz mit genauer Diagnose und...

Botulinum toxin is a highly toxic neurotoxin produced by anaerobic bacteria clostridium botulinum which causes a fatal disease called botulism. Presently it is finding its place in the therapeutic needs of medical and dental fields. With the ever-increasing popularity of nonsurgical enhancement and an increasing number of patients who have been treated, the demand for fillers continues to rise. Botox and dermal fillers are here to stay and with more and more intra oral uses of these materials, they are fast becoming an integral part of everyday dental practice including restorative,...

Pour que le parodonte reste sain, les restaurations doivent être gérées de manière critique dans plusieurs domaines afin qu'elles soient en harmonie avec les tissus parodontaux environnants. Une coexistence saine entre les restaurations dentaires et leurs structures environnantes devrait être l'objectif du dentiste consciencieux et l'attente du patient informé. Les cliniciens doivent combiner les procédures parodontales et restauratrices de manière coordonnée afin d'optimiser le meilleur résultat clinique.

Cone beam computed tomography is a diagnostic imaging technology that is changing the way dental practitioners view the oral and maxillofacial complex as well as the teeth and the surrounding tissues. CBCT has been specifically designed to produce undistorted three dimensional images similar to computed tomography (CT), but at a lower equipment cost, simpler image acquisition, and lower patient radiation dose. However the two-dimensional diagnostic imaging has served dentistry well and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Intraoral and panoramic radiographs are the basic imaging...
