Conclusions Filling survival was comparably lower to composite restorations observed in prospective clinical studies on permanent teeth and other tooth-colored restoratives used in primary teeth. Due to the very high caries risk and young age of the population, frequent loss due to secondary caries was observed. With respect to the high caries risk, composite restorations can be used to treat carious primary teeth, though a strict caries prevention regimen should be followed to minimize restoration failure. Clinical relevance Filling loss of composites in the primary dentition is associated with secondary caries on the long term. (Source: Clinical Oral Investigations)

In the past, dentists attempted to replace or keep teeth through procedures such as bridges, root canals, and fixed dentures . Unfortunately, bridges require healthy adjacent teeth to be cut down, root canal treated teeth can fail, and dentures can be unstable.

This study aimed to investigate whether/how the working?side condylar movement irregularity and articular spaces during chewing differ between patients with mandibular asymmetry/cross?bite and control subjects. The cross?bite group and the control group consisted of 10 adult female patients and 10 adult female subjects, respectively. They performed unilateral gum?chewing. The mandibular movements were recorded using a video?based opto?electronic system. The 3D articular surface of the TMJ for each individual was reconstructed using CT/MRI data. For local condylar points, the normalised jerk cost (NJC) towards normal direction to the condylar surface, the angle between tangential velocity vector and condylar long axis and intra?articular space were measured. Three rotatory ang…
