429 Too Many Requests

By Dr. Clarence Tam, HBSC, DDS, AAACD, FIADFE

The use of both porcelain veneers to improve and restore the shape, shade and visual position of anterior teeth is a common technique in esthetic dentistry. The biomimetic aim in the restoration of teeth is not only the cosmetic domain, but also functional considerations. It is critical to note that the intact enamel shell of the palatal and facial walls with respect to anterior teeth are responsible for its innate flexural resistance. When dental structure has been violated by endodontic access, caries and/or trauma, every effort must be made to preserve the residual structure and strive to restore or exceed the baseline performance levels of a virgin tooth.

BACKGROUND

A 55 year old ASA II female with a medical history significant only for controlled hypertension presented to the practice for teeth whitening. It was foreseen that dental bleaching would not have an effect on the shade of a pre-existing porcelain veneer on tooth 1.2, and that this would need to be retreated following the procedure especially if the shade value changes were significant. The patient started with a baseline shade of VITA* 1M1:2M1; 50:50 ratio in the upper anterior region and 1M1 in the lower anterior region. Following a nightguard bleaching protocol with 10% carbamide peroxide worn overnight for 3-4 weeks, the patient succeeded in achieving a VITA* 0M3 shade in both upper and lower arches. As a result, there was a significant value discrepancy between the veneered tooth 1.2 and the adjacent teeth, and also increased chroma noted on the contralateral tooth 2.2 due to a facially-involved Class III composite restoration. This latter tooth also did not match the contralateral tooth in dimension and thus the decision was made to treat both lateral incisors with bonded lithium disilicate laminate veneers. The canine adjacent (2.3) featured localized mild to moderate cusp tip attrition, but the patient did not want to address this until following the currently-discussed veneers were placed. The goal of smile design at this stage is to ultimately establish bilateral harmony with the view to place an additional indirect restoration restoring the facial volume and cusp tip deficiency of tooth 2.3 in the near future.

PROCEDURE

A digital smile design protocol was not required for the initial intention, which was individual treatment of the lateral incisors, as slight variation is permitted in this tooth type, being a personality and gender marker of the smile. Prior to anesthesia, the target shade was selected using retracted photos featuring both polarized and unpolarized selections. The photographs were prepared for digital shade calibration by taking reference views with an 18% neutral gray white balance card (Fig. 1).

Fig. 1. Reference photograph taken with a 18% neutral gray card.

The basic body shade was VITA* 0M2 with an ingot shade of BL2. The patient was anesthetized using 1.5 carpules of a 2% Lignocaine solution with 1:100,000 epinephrine before affixing a rubber dam in a split dam orientation. The veneer on tooth 1.2 was sectioned and removed from tooth 1.2 and a minimally-invasive veneer preparation completed on tooth 2.2 (Fig. 2). Partial replacement of the old composite resin restoration was completed on the mesioincisobuccopalatal aspect of tooth 12 with the intact segment maintained. Adhesion to old composite was achieved using both micro particle abrasion and a silane coupling agent (CLEARFIL™ CERAMIC PRIMER PLUS, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.). Margins were refined and retraction cords soaked in an aluminum chloride solution and packed. Preparation stump shades were recorded. Final impressions were taken using both light and heavy body polyvinylsiloxane in a metal tray. The patient was provisionalized and sent away with instructions to verify the shade at the laboratory at the bisque bake stage. The models prepared by the laboratory verify the minimally-invasive nature of the case.

On receipt of the case, the patient was anesthetized and the provisionals removed. The preparations were debrided and prepared for bonding by abrading the surfaces using a 27 micron aluminum oxide powder at 30-40 psi. The veneers were assessed using a clear glycerin try-in paste (PANAVIA™ V5 Try-in Paste Clear, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.). Retraction cords were packed and the intaglio surface of the restorations treated using a 5% hydrofluoric acid for 20 seconds prior to application of a 10-MDP-containing silane coupling agent (CLEARFIL™ CERAMIC PRIMER PLUS, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.) (Fig. 3). The tooth surface was etched using 33% orthophosphoric acid for 20 seconds and rinsed. A 10-MDP-containing primer was applied to the tooth (PANAVIA™ V5 Tooth Primer, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.) (Fig. 4) and air dried as per manufacturer’s instructions. Veneer cement was loaded (PANAVIA™ Veneer LC Paste Clear, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.) (Fig. 5) and the veneer seated. The excess cement featured a non-slumpy character and maintained the veneer well in place during all margin verification exercises prior to a 1 second tack cure (Fig. 6).

Fig. 6. PANAVIA™ Veneer LC Paste immediately after seating. Note the viscous, non-slumpy nature of the cement, which allows for ease of removal under both wet and gel-phase options.

The cement was rendered into a gel state, which facilitated “clump” or en masse removal of cement with minimal cleanup required (Fig. 7). The margins were coated using a clear glycerin gel prior to final curing to eliminate the oxygen inhibition layer (Fig. 8).

The margins were finished and polished to high shine and the occlusion of the restorations verified as conformative. The post-operative views show excellent esthetic marginal integration (Fig. 9).

On polarized photograph reassessment, the restorations are well-integrated into the new smile esthetically and functionally (Fig. 10), now awaiting esthetic augmentation of tooth 2.3 to match the contralateral canine.

RATIONALE FOR MATERIAL SELECTION

Porcelain is often the chosen material for prosthetic dental veneers due to its innate stiffness in thin cross section, ability to modify and transmit light for optimal internal refraction and its bondability by way of adhesive protocols to composite resin. This trifecta allows for a maximal preservation of residual tooth structure whilst bolstering its physical function relative to flexural performance¹. The elastic modulus of a tooth can be restored to 96% of its control virgin value if the facial enamel is replaced with a bonded porcelain laminate veneer². The elastic modulus of lithium disilicate is 94 GPa whereas that of intact enamel is 84 GPa. The elastic modulus of dentin has been found to range from 10-25 GPa, whereas that of the hybrid layer can vary widely, indeed from 7.5 GPa to 13.5 GPa in a study by Pongprueska et al³. This low flexural resistance range reflects that of deep dentin and not that of superficial dentin, which does not reflect an ideal situation where a laminate veneer is bonded in as much enamel as possible, or in the worst case to superficial dentin. Maximal flexural strength of the hybrid layer is invaluable from a biomimetic standpoint. PANAVIA™ V5 Tooth Primer (Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.) incorporates the use of the original 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) monomer, which elicits a pattern of stable calcium-phosphate nanolayering known as Superdentin, an acid-base resistant zone that is about 600x more insoluble than the monomer 4-MET, which is found in many other adhesives. Indeed, PANAVIA™ V5 Tooth Primer is used solely in conjunction with Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc. PANAVIA™ V5 cement and PANAVIA™ Veneer LC which both allow the primer to act as a bond without the need to cure the layer prior to cementation of the indirect restoration due to its dual cure potential when married together. If a bonding agent would be preferred, CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick (Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.), a multi-modal adhesive that also contains the essential amide monomer and 10-MDP components created by Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc., can be used. Of note, CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick features exceptional flexural strength due to the accentuated cross-linking during polymerization afforded by the amide monomers, on the order of 120 MPa by itself⁴. PANAVIA™ Veneer LC is a cement system that features cutting edge technology that provides excellent esthetics and adhesive stability of your indirect restorations, whilst allowing a stress free workflow. It is a cement system that is a game changer; one that allows you to restore confidence in the patient, strength in the tooth-restoration interface, and bolsters your clinical confidence in the delivery of biomimetic excellence.

Restoring Class II cavities can be challenging due to limited access to the posterior area, where the interproximal contact needs to re-established in a proper way. Inadequate contacts tend to result in increased plaque accumulation, food impaction and, as a consequence, the development of caries and irritation of the interproximal gingiva. Therefore, it is essential that the interproximal contact is restored based on the model of nature. A suitable matrix system and a proper clinical protocol can help us succeed in this context. The following clinical case is used to illustrate a possible strategy.

Fig. 1. Initial clinical situation. 23-year-old female patient with caries on the mandibular left second premolar.

Fig. 2. Situation after cavity preparation, isolation of the working field with rubber dam and the placement of a sectional matrix fixed with a ring. It is essential that the matrix imitates the natural shape of the contact area, which is usually rather flat or concave cervically and convex in the middle and occlusal parts.

Fig. 4. CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium in the shade A3E is applied in the distal box to build up the wall first. In this way, the available space is used to model the most critical part of the restoration before simply filling the cavity in increments with the dentin shade A3D.

FINAL SITUATION

Fig. 5. Final restoration after finishing and polishing. In accordance with the concept behind CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium with its pre-defined shade combinations, the final enamel layer was build-up using the shade A3E. However, the use of a single opacity is also possible in the posterior region depending on the aesthetic demands.

CONCLUSION

By elevating deep interproximal margins, it is possible to focus on the critical designing of the contact point when there is still sufficient space available to do so. This simplifies the procedure, while all that is left to do can be managed in a straightforward way like a Class I restoration.

HOW MANY SHADES DO WE NEED?

Case by Gasparatos Spyros, Postgraduate student in Restorative Dentistry program, Faculty of Dentistry, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece

Restoring anterior teeth with large defects using composite seems to be quite challenging. With high-performance materials at hand and a systematic layering concept in mind, however, it is possible to produce highly aesthetic results in a reproducible way. The clinical case below is used to illustrate a dual-shade layering technique with CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium, a composite system with pre-defined colour combinations.

CASE EXAMPLE

The patient, a young male, was unhappy with the appearance of his maxillary anterior teeth. Several years ago, his central incisors had been restored with composite. These existing restorations had defective and heavily discoloured margins, while their shade did not match the adjacent natural tooth structure. The maxillary lateral incisors were peg-shaped (microdontia). Economic considerations and the desire to save as much natural tooth structure as possible made the team decide to restore all four maxillary incisors with composite. CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium became the material of choice as it eliminates the need for complicated shade combination formulas and supports predictable outcomes.

Fig. 1. The patient’s initial smile.

Fig. 2. Intraoral image of the initial situation with defective composite restorations and microdonts. Two composite buttons on the right lateral incisor are used to verify the determined shade combination.

RESTORING THE CENTRAL INCISORS

We decided to restore the central incisors first and then focus on the lateral incisors. The tooth shade was determined using the VITA™ classical A1-D4 shade guide, while composite buttons were applied to the teeth to verify the determined shade combination. In order to simplify the restoration procedure, a palatal silicon index was produced before removing the existing restorations. During minimally invasive tooth preparation, bevels were created at the margins to provide for a smooth optical transition from the natural tooth structure to the composite.

An adhesive (CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick) was applied after selective etching of the enamel to achieve a strong bond. With the aid of the silicon index, it was easy to create the palatal shells of the restorations with CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium in the shade A3E (enamel), which matches the determined tooth shade A3. The dentin core was built up with the same composite in the recommended shade A3D (dentin), mamelons were modelled and some CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES-2 Premium in the shade WD added for the incisal halo, while some individual effects (like enamel cracks) were imitated with brown stain. The build-up was finalized in the interproximal and labial areas with composite in the shade A3E. Between the central incisors, a wedge was used to retract the papilla and facilitate the designing of the interproximal contact area. The finished and pre-polished restorations already had a natural appearance.

RESTORING THE LATERAL INCISORS

Tooth preparation was not required on the lateral incisors. Instead, they were merely cleaned after a slight roughening of the enamel surfaces. The build-up procedure was similar to the one used for the central incisors. The adjacent tooth was protected with PTFE tape, and the palatal shell was created with the aid of a finger instead of a silicone index. Afterwards, we focused on the build-up of the interproximal walls before a small amount of dentin was placed and the shape was finalized by applying the labial enamel layer.

FINAL SITUATION

CONCLUSION

Two different opacities, a single shade combination and some bleached shade plus stain for special effects – in the present patient case, a simple formula allowed us to create lifelike anterior restorations. With one enamel and one dentin paste used, it is possible to simply rebuild the natural anatomy without the risk of ending up with a bulky core that – once reduced – will lose its special optical structure. It is also easy to control the thickness of the final enamel layer with its huge impact on the light-optical properties of the whole restoration. For most patients and teeth with a simple or medium-to-complex internal colour structure, the selected concept is very well suited and will lead to pleasing outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Indirect overlays are the contemporary restoration standard for posterior teeth with extensive hard tissue loss. They provide for cuspal coverage, which decreases the likeliness of coronal and/or root fracture. At the same time and in contrast to crowns, overlay preparations minimize the removal of sound tooth structure especially in the cervical region, which is a critical factor.¹ Modern dental resin composites allow for direct cuspal coverage in a single-visit appointment. The results of in-vitro studies suggest that these direct overlays are a suitable alternative to their indirect counterparts in specific situations.^2-6 The following case report is used to describe the direct restoration procedure by means of a maxillary right molar with an extensive, deep MOD lesion.

INTRODUCTION

In the context of treating a tooth with an extensive carious lesion, a biomechanical risk assessment should be performed. The primary method of reducing the likeliness of tooth fracture is treatment with a restoration that provides cuspal coverage. The contemporary gold standard for biomechanically compromised teeth are adhesively cemented overlays as an alternative to crowns.¹ Another option that does not involve labwork is a direct overlay restoration.^2-6 The direct approach is especially suitable for long-term temporization, which may be required during orthodontic treatment, for example.

USING THE NEXT-GENERATION SELF-ADHESIVE CEMENTS

by Dr. Tomohiro Takagaki.

INTRODUCTION

In recent years, the use of CAD/CAM systems for the production of indirect restorations has become increasingly popular. The shortage of young, qualified staff in the field of dental technology in Japan¹) is likely to contribute to a further increase of automated production techniques such as CAD/CAM, which require fewer manual production steps compared to traditional manufacturing techniques. Also globally, the number of restorations fabricated using CAD/CAM systems is rapidly increasing. This leads to an even more widespread use of innovative, tooth-coloured restorative materials such as zirconia, silicate ceramics and resins.

Demand for placing restorations using the principle of adhesion by resin cements is more and more increasing in daily clinical settings. However, it is difficult and complicated to condition the tooth and restoration surfaces using many primers correctly. In addition, the combination of many different components is time-consuming, complex and cost-intensive. Self-adhesive resin cements, which do not require conditioning the surface of teeth or some restorations with primers, have been released recently, and have become popular among dental practitioners. However, there are many reports²) on the dislodgement of resin-based CAD/CAM restorations and full-zirconia crowns that have been placed using self-adhesive cements. Hence, demand is high for a resin cement system that is both simple to use and reliable in performance.

In this document, I explain the fundamental technology of resin cement systems and their range of applications. In addition, I will introduce the method of using a next-generation self-adhesive cement, PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal (Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc., Fig. 1), as an example.
