全口义齿异常颌位排牙的体会

牙列缺失后,由于未及时的进行全口义齿修复,常常造成上下颌骨及上下颌弓在形状、大小、位置等方面的不协调,表现为异常颌位,给全口义齿的修复带来一系列的不便,使全口义齿的修复难以达到理想的修复效果。为获得满意的修复效果,异常颌位的排牙成了关键的一步,它不能按常规的排牙方法来进行,必须根据患者的具体情况作适当的调整。只有这样,才有利于全口义齿的固位和稳定,有利于全口义齿功能发挥。     

The role of fluid hydrostatic pressure in bone-implant interface load transfer

Permeability of the soft tissue-bone system surrounding artificial joints fixed in cancellous bone was measured in four adult dogs after implants had been in place 2 months. Fluid was forced through a cavity formed by removal of the implant, the cavity was capped with a stopper to allow for pressure generation. Surface permeability of the 2-month-old implant cavity was 45 times less than the permeability of freshly drilled holes in cancellous bone. A mathematical model of a rigid implant resting on a biphasic solid-fluid layer showed the fluid carried 90% of the load when the implant cavity permeability was assumed, but only 27% when the freshly drilled permeability was used. The results suggest caution in interpreting finite-element models with bonded interfaces and suggest a possible role of the fluid in biological response at the interface.

Recurrence of thyroid carcinoma in cervical soft tissue following surgical implantation: Case report

IntroductionThyroid cancer is the most common type of malignant endocrine cancer. Differentiated thyroid cancer, which includes papillary and follicular cancers, represents majority (90%) of all thyroid cancers and has a favorable prognosis.However, a minority of patients develops loco-regional recurrence.Case reportWe report here a rare case of a 63 years-old man who underwent total thyroidectomy in 2015 for multinodular goiter whose histopathological examination revealed a papillary thyroid carcinoma. He received 6 weeks later a 100 mCi of radioactive iodine therapy. In 2017, he was admitted for multiple cervical lymph nodes with high serum thyroglobulin level (234 ng/mL) which required a bilateral central and lateral neck dissection. He was readmitted in 2019 for multiple subcutaneous neck nodules with high serum thyroglobulin level (197 ng/mL). The histopathological examination of the excised nodules revealed a papillary thyroid carcinoma. The patient showed no sign of recurrence after 2 years follow-up.ConclusionLocal soft tissue recurrence followed surgical implantation should be suspected when nodules are determined alongside the thyroid after previous thyroid surgery. Therapy for these soft tissue implants may be difficult; a comprehensive long-term postoperative evaluation should be completed to minimize the risk of recurrence in cervical soft tissue.     

Patients'' complaints and satisfaction 5 years after complete denture treatment

This study is based on an evaluation of patients' opinions of their dentures by means of a questionnaire. The patients had been provided with complete dentures at a university clinic. Of the original sample (n = 139) a test group of 92 patients remained available for the actual study 5 yr after treatment. The replies in the questionnaire were subjected to statistical processing and interpretation. Six clusters could be defined and these were introduced as "scales" representing the patients' score on a specific type of complaint. Apart from the six scales a score was achieved for each patient's overall satisfaction. The correlations between the various scales were calculated with the aid of a computer program. Finally, cross-tabulation was used to see if any significant (inter)correlations could be proved between complaints, satisfaction, and some of the patients' social data. It could be concluded that a correlation exists between complaints of pain and of functional aspects on the one hand and vague complaints on the other hand. There is also a correlation between complaints of looseness of the maxillary denture and complaints about aesthetic factors. Well-fitting and well-functioning dentures, absence of pain, and a socially acceptable appearance contribute much to the patients' satisfaction with dentures. Social variables such as type of insurance (public or private) and marital status influence denture appreciation to a certain extent.

Porous Polyethylene Implants for Nasal Reconstruction: Clinical and Histologic Studies

This paper describes a technique of using Medpor porous high-density polyethylene implants for nasal reconstruction and chin augmentation. This biocompatible material has been used successfully during the last decade for various applications in the reconstruction of the facial skeleton. Among its most frequent uses are repair of the orbital floor and reconstruction of the burned ear, which became standard methods at many centers. Relatively little experience is, at present, on hand concerning the use of porous polyethylene in reconstruction of the nasal framework. Twenty-three consecutive, difficult nasal reconstructions were performed using this method since 1996. Patients were followed up for from 1 to 3 years (mean, 2 years). The results were durable and stable over the time. Eight patients had saddle nose deformity and 15 had catastrophe noses, mostly referrals, previously operated on from one to four times. My aesthetic goals were correction of the depressed nasal dorsum, creation of an acceptable nasal dorsum in the thick and/or twisted noses, and tip elevation. For nasal applications Medpor is available as a strut or sheet. Its body, once implanted, becomes rapidly vascularized and both soft tissue ingrowth and collagen deposition occur. This was confirmed by the microscopic investigation of biopsies. One patient of Vietnamese origin had an aesthetically pleasing result, but her family refused to accept her westernized nose. This gave me a unique opportunity to study the whole Medpor implant 6 months after implantation. There were two complications, one small implant exposure and one low-virulent infection involving the nasal tip. Following revision and antibiotic treatment, both patients healed without sequel. All reconstructions were successful in restoring nasal aesthetics and function. Four patients underwent chin augmentations with an uneventful clinical course.     

Relative importance of psychologic factors in denture satisfaction

The aim of this investigation was to explore the relative importance of psychologic variables in explaining the degree of denture satisfaction in full denture patients. A group of 125 patients who were on a waiting list to have new dentures constructed participated in this study. The patients completed the Dutch version of the Hopkins Symptom Checklist, the Dutch Personality Inventory, a denture satisfaction questionnaire and a denture complaint questionnaire. No relation was found between the personality variables and denture satisfaction as measured by the denture satisfaction questionnaire. When the different aspects of denture satisfaction were measured by means of complaint scales, satisfaction was related to personality traits. Functional complaints of the mandibular denture and complaints about a hollow face were related to the personality trait "extraversion-introversion". Vague denture complaints and complaints about a bulbous face were related to "neuroticism".
