AAED 41st Annual Meeting rwalsh@thesentergroup.com MM/DD/YYYY 8:00 - 8:20 AM Point - Etiology and Treatment of Non-Carious Cervical Lesions Speaker John Dzakovich, DDS Abfraction or Abfriction: The Historical Facts and Scientific Clarification of the Preplexing Non-Carious Cervical Lesion A review of the dental literature indicates that non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) are formed by erosion, abrasion and/or abfraction of tooth structure, but remain scientifically unsubstantiated. The purpose of this study was to reproduce non-carious cervical lesions in vitro. The framework of this study was not designed to statistically quantify the amount of lost tooth structure via abrasion, but rather to create NCCL’s in the various shapes and sizes that are clinically observed. Forty-eight sets of extracted human teeth, involving 192 teeth, were horizontally brushed utilizing a mechanical tooth-brushing machine. Each soft, medium and firm, name-brand and generic toothbrush was tested with each abrasivity of toothpaste and water. The toothpastes were selected based on their relative dentin abrasivity (RDA) of low (Arm & Hammer Dental Care), medium (Maximum Strength Sensodyne), and high (Crest Multicare Whitening). Three control groups were utilized to evaluate the effects of toothbrush filaments, the gingival mask that festooned the teeth and toothpaste on the teeth. Each set of teeth was brushed for a total of 70,000 strokes. Visual observations were made utilizing pre-wear and post-wear stone casts and photography of each set of teeth. The control sets, brushed in water only, demonstrated no visible loss of tooth structure. Each set brushed with toothpaste, regardless of the degree of abrasiveness or toothbrush firmness, demonstrated visible wear at the level of the CEJ. This study indicates that abrasion is the primary and likely the exclusive cause of these lesions. In vitro horizontal brushing with modern-day toothpastes creates the non-carious cervical lesion. Clinical implications Significant non-carious cervical lesions can be created in dentin via horizontal brushing with common commercial toothpaste. At the conclusion of this lecture participants will have gained an understanding of: 1. A historical review illuminating the development of the hypothetical multifactorial etiology of the non-carious cervical lesions 2. Etiology of the non-carious cervical lesions via in vitro studies (100 years ago and now) 3. Oral health/oral harm Survey More Info

AAED 41st Annual Meeting rwalsh@thesentergroup.com MM/DD/YYYY 8:50 - 9:10 AM Point - The Relationship between Platform Switching and Initial Ma Drginal Bone Stability Speaker Luigi Canullo, DDS, PhD Bio-Logic to Platform Switching While few articles claimed that platform switching might be only a commercially driven myth, several systematic reviews agreed to state that this prosthetic concept may represent an effective strategy to minimize peri-implant bone resorption minimizing its etiologic factors. However the most part of these reviews declared that results should be interpreted with caution due to the presence of uncontrolled confounding factors in the included studies. To better understand this controversial aspect, going deeper in the knowledge of biology behind this prosthetic concept is strictly required. In fact, it was demonstrated that compared to a traditionally restored implant, the platform switching configuration may have the connective tissue compartment seated over the implant platform and in direct contact with prosthetic components. This could suggest new strategies to exploit the clinical potentialities of platform switching. At the conclusion of this lecture participants will have gained an understanding of: 1. Maintenance of peri-implant marginal bone level increases the aesthetic quality and the longitudinal life of our implant supported restoration 2. Platform switching is an effective strategy to preserve peri-implant bone 3. Knowledge of the biology behind the prosthetic concept of platform switching helps to increase its clinical meaning Survey More Info

AAED 41st Annual Meeting rwalsh@thesentergroup.com MM/DD/YYYY 9:40 - 10:10 AM Pink Esthetics: The Science and Art Speaker Irena Sailer, Dr. Med, Dent. The loss of a tooth leaving a defect in the esthetic area is a very delicate problem specifically in patient cases with high lip line. At demanding patients high efforts have to be made to reduce the risk for soft tissue defects and/ or esthetic failure. The type of reconstruction and the material it is made out of can have a significant influence on the result. Recent studies have evaluated the threshold for the visibility of mucosal/gingival discoloration and have shown that the human eye detects soft tissue discoloration at a similar threshold value as it would see tooth discoloration. The selection of the restorative material and its effect on the soft tissues is, hence, crucial for a good result. In case of implant reconstructions it has, furthermore, been shown that greyish metallic abutments and metal-ceramic reconstructions lead to dark discoloration of the soft tissue. This discoloration was dependant on the thickness of the soft tissues. Thin soft tissues (<2mm) exhibited significantly more discoloration as thicker soft tissues (>2mm). A thickening of the soft tissues by means of connective tissue grafts is recommended in patients with high expectations. Finally, defects and/or esthetic problems can also be solved by means of purely restorative options. Removable prostheses may be the easiest and most predictable solution in patients with pronounced defects. In case of fixed reconstructions a lack of buccal and interdental soft tissues may be compensated for with pink veneering ceramic, creating a perfect illusion in many cases. A thorough pre-treatment diagnostics by the restorative team, the clinician and the technician, and the appropriate information of the patient about the possibilities and the limitations of the various treatment options is crucial for a satisfying result. At the conclusion of this lecture participants will have gained an understanding of: 1. The criteria that influence the pink esthetics 2. The visibility of problems with the pink esthetics 3. Different restorative options for good and predictable pink esthetic Survey More Info

AAED 41st Annual Meeting rwalsh@thesentergroup.com MM/DD/YYYY 12:10 - 1:00 PM Facial Reconstruction to Facial Transplantation: Success Through a Team Approach Speaker Lawrence E. Brecht, DDS · New York University College of Dentistry Individuals with facial deformities, due to either congenital or acquired conditions, usually require multiple surgical and/or prosthetic procedures to provide some semblance of normal appearance or functional capacity. Often, following many procedures, these patients still are lacking in their sense of “normalcy” of appearance and still lack function. Through the development of a team approach and advances in digital technologies, many previously un-imagined reconstructions are now possible, and achieved following fewer and more efficient surgical procedures that also facilitate improved prosthetic restorations and functional outcomes. The culmination of the team concept can be seen in the advances in composite tissue allograft surgery (facial transplantation) for the severest of facial deformities. This presentation will review the NYU Langone Plastic Surgery experience in advancing the surgical-prosthetic-industrial team approa ch in reconstruction, from the simplest examples to the most complex, including facial transplantation. At the conclusion of this lecture participants will have gained an understanding of: 1. The benefits of an integrated team approach to facial reconstruction 2. The role of digital technology in planning and executing complex maxillofacial reconstruction 3. The emerging area of facial transplantation in facial reconstruction Survey More Info
