Methods: Six cases of partial edentulism (one anterior and five posterior) treated with oral implant placement in our clinic for the loss of three or fewer teeth in the maxilla or mandible between April 2017 and September 2018 were included. After implant placement and re-entry surgery, provisional restorations were made and adjusted to obtain the ideal morphology. Two definitive restorations were constructed by transferring the complete morphology of the provisional restorations, including the subgingival contour, using the TMF digital and conventional techniques. Three sets of surface morphological data were obtained using a desktop scanner. The three-dimensional total discrepancy volume (TDV) between the provisional restoration (reference) and the two definitive restorations was digitally measured by overlapping the surface data of the stone cast using the Boolean operation. Each TDV ratio (%) was calculated by dividing the TDV by the volume of provisional restoration. The median TDV ratios for TMF and conventional techniques were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
Results: The median TDV ratio between provisional and definitive restorations constructed using the TMF digital technique (8.05%) was significantly lower than that obtained using the conventional technique (13.56%, P < 0.05).
Conclusions: In this preliminary intervention study, the TMF digital technique was more accurate than the conventional technique for the transfer of morphology from provisional to definitive prosthesis. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MinoTakuya en-aut-sei=Mino en-aut-mei=Takuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurosakiYoko en-aut-sei=Kurosaki en-aut-mei=Yoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TokumotoKana en-aut-sei=Tokumoto en-aut-mei=Kana kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=IzumiKoji en-aut-sei=Izumi en-aut-mei=Koji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=MitsumuneHiroshi en-aut-sei=Mitsumune en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaekawaKenji en-aut-sei=Maekawa en-aut-mei=Kenji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=UedaAkihiro en-aut-sei=Ueda en-aut-mei=Akihiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakanoTomohito en-aut-sei=Nakano en-aut-mei=Tomohito kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=SejimaJunichi en-aut-sei=Sejima en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=Kimura-OnoAya en-aut-sei=Kimura-Ono en-aut-mei=Aya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KubokiTakuo en-aut-sei=Kuboki en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Implantology, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=SHIKEN Corporation kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=SHIKEN Corporation kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Dental Technician Laboratory, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Dental Technician Laboratory, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Dental Technician Laboratory, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Implantology, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=Computer-aided design kn-keyword=Computer-aided design en-keyword=Dental implants kn-keyword=Dental implants en-keyword=Superstructure kn-keyword=Superstructure en-keyword=Provisional restoration kn-keyword=Provisional restoration en-keyword=Digital workflow kn-keyword=Digital workflow END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=10 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=37 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2024 dt-pub=20240729 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Long-term follow-up of a patient with Parkinson's disease under nursing care after replacement of fixed implant-supported prostheses with an implant overdenture: a case report en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Background In older patients with progressive neurodegeneration, replacing fixed implant-supported prostheses (FIP) with implant overdentures (IOD) has been proposed to prevent future mucosal injury and create an oral environment that is easier for caregivers to clean. However, there have been no reports on the progress after replacing FIP with IOD. In this report, we present the progress of an older patient with Parkinsonfs disease in whom FIP was replaced with IOD.
Case presentation An 81-year-old male patient with Parkinsonfs disease presented to our outpatient clinic with bruxism and crossbites. FIPs, with five Br?nemark system implants, were placed in the bilateral lower molars. The FIP was replaced with an IOD with two locator attachments to create an oral environment that was easier for caregivers to clean and allow easy recovery of masticatory function if residual teeth were fractured in the care environment. As his systemic condition deteriorated, treatment was changed from outpatient to in-home visits. During dental care visits, professional oral cleaning and denture repair were continued, and good nutritional status was maintained. However, the patient developed cholecystitis and was hospitalized. During hospitalization, gastrostomy was performed because he developed aspiration pneumonia. After discharge from the hospital, the patient remained in bed all day and could not wear an IOD, resulting in buccal mucosa ulceration due to abrasion of the locator abutment. We decided to replace the abutment with cover screws; however, not all the implants could sleep submucosally. Although regular oral cleaning was resumed, new ulcers developed even when cover screws were installed. Additionally, swelling and drainage were observed at the peri-implant mucosal site where peri-implantitis had once occurred during an outpatient visit. The patient was readmitted to the hospital for a urinary tract infection, and subsequent visits were abandoned.
Conclusions By replacing FIP with IOD in an older patient with Parkinsonfs disease, we addressed a barrier to caregiver-provided oral management. The removable prosthesis facilitated smooth oral care by caregivers and functional recovery in the event of trouble with residual teeth. However, it could not completely avoid the recurrence of buccal mucosal ulcers or peri-implantitis. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TokumotoKana en-aut-sei=Tokumoto en-aut-mei=Kana kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MinoTakuya en-aut-sei=Mino en-aut-mei=Takuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TosaIkue en-aut-sei=Tosa en-aut-mei=Ikue kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OmoriKo en-aut-sei=Omori en-aut-mei=Ko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamamotoMichiyo en-aut-sei=Yamamoto en-aut-mei=Michiyo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakaokaKazuki en-aut-sei=Takaoka en-aut-mei=Kazuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaekawaKenji en-aut-sei=Maekawa en-aut-mei=Kenji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KubokiTakuo en-aut-sei=Kuboki en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishimotoHiromitsu en-aut-sei=Kishimoto en-aut-mei=Hiromitsu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, School of Medicine, Hyogo Medical University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Okayama University Dental School kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Okayama University Dental School kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Dental Clinic, AINOSATO Clinic kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Shiga University of Medical Science kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Removable Prosthodontics and Occlusion, Osaka Dental University kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Okayama University Dental School kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, School of Medicine, Hyogo Medical University kn-affil= en-keyword=Parkinson's disease kn-keyword=Parkinson's disease en-keyword=Older people kn-keyword=Older people en-keyword=Implant overdenture kn-keyword=Implant overdenture en-keyword=Nursing homes kn-keyword=Nursing homes en-keyword=Implant-related troubles kn-keyword=Implant-related troubles en-keyword=Peri-implantitis kn-keyword=Peri-implantitis END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=9 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=42 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2023 dt-pub=20231102 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Accuracy of a novel modified single computed tomography scanning method for assisting dental implant placement: a retrospective observational study en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Purpose@The aim of this study is to compare dental implant placement accuracy of three surgical guide fabrication methods: single (SCT) and double computed tomography (DCT), and a newly developed modified SCT (MSCT) scan method.
Methods@A total of 183 cases (183 surgical guides, and 485 implants) of static-guide-assisted implant placement surgery using the SCT, DCT, or MSCT methods in a dental clinic were included in the study. Three-dimensional (3D) deviations (mm) at the entry and tip of the implant body between preoperative simulation and actual placement were measured as surrogate endpoints of implant placement accuracy. The following survey details were collected from medical records and CT data: sex, age at implant placement surgery, surgical guide fabrication method, number of remaining teeth, implant length, implant location, alveolar bone quality, and bone surface inclination at implant placement site in preoperative simulation, etc. Risk factors for reducing implant placement accuracy were investigated using generalized estimating equations.
Results@The SCT and DCT methods (odds ratios [ORs] vs. MSCT method: 1.438, 1.178, respectively), posterior location (OR: 1.114), bone surface buccolingual inclination (OR: 0.997), and age at implant placement surgery (OR: 0.995) were significant risk factors for larger 3D deviation at the entry; the SCT (OR: 1.361) and DCT methods (OR: 1.418), posterior location (OR: 1.190), implant length (OR: 1.051), and age at implant placement surgery (OR: 0.995) were significant risk factors for larger 3D deviation at the tip of the implant body.
Conclusions@Implant placement accuracy was better using the MSCT method compared to the SCT and DCT methods. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShimizuHiroaki en-aut-sei=Shimizu en-aut-mei=Hiroaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MinoTakuya en-aut-sei=Mino en-aut-mei=Takuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurosakiYoko en-aut-sei=Kurosaki en-aut-mei=Yoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=ArakawaHikaru en-aut-sei=Arakawa en-aut-mei=Hikaru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TokumotoKana en-aut-sei=Tokumoto en-aut-mei=Kana kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=Kimura-OnoAya en-aut-sei=Kimura-Ono en-aut-mei=Aya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaekawaKenji en-aut-sei=Maekawa en-aut-mei=Kenji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KubokiTakuo en-aut-sei=Kuboki en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Remov? able Prosthodontics and Occlusion, Osaka Dental University kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=Dental implants kn-keyword=Dental implants en-keyword=Implant placement kn-keyword=Implant placement en-keyword=Accuracy kn-keyword=Accuracy en-keyword=Radiographic guide kn-keyword=Radiographic guide en-keyword=Surgical guide kn-keyword=Surgical guide END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=125 end-page=129 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2021 dt-pub=20210224 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Newly developed data-matching methodology for oral implant surgery allowing the automatic deletion of metal artifacts in 3D-CT images using new reference markers: A case report en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Patients: The patient was a 55-year-old woman with left upper molar free-end edentulism and 9 full cast metal crowns in her mouth. Three three-dimensional (3D) images were superimposed: a computed tomography (CT) image with the patient wearing the CT-matching template (CTMT) with six glass ceramic markers, which hardly generate any artifacts, on the template surface, and oral plaster model surfaces with and without CTMTs. Metal artifacts were automatically removed by a Boolean operation identifying unrealistic images outside the oral plaster model surface. After the preoperative simulation, fully guided oral implant surgery was performed. Two implant bodies were placed in the left upper edentulism. The placement errors calculated by comparing the preoperative simulation and actual implant placement were then assessed by a software program using the 3D-CT bone morphology as a reference. The 3D deviations between the preoperative simulation and actual placement at the entry of the implant body were a maximum 0.48 mm and minimum 0.26 mm. Those at the tip of the implant body were a maximum 0.56 mm and a minimum 0.25 mm.
Discussion: In this case, the maximum 3D deviations at the entry and tip section were less than in previous studies using double CT.
Conclusions: Accurate image fusion utilizing CTMT with new reference markers was possible for a patient with many metal restorations. Using a surgical guide manufactured by the new matching methodology (modified single CT scan method), implant placement deviation can be minimized in patients with many metal restorations. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShimizuHiroaki en-aut-sei=Shimizu en-aut-mei=Hiroaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ArakawaHikaru en-aut-sei=Arakawa en-aut-mei=Hikaru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MinoTakuya en-aut-sei=Mino en-aut-mei=Takuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurosakiYoko en-aut-sei=Kurosaki en-aut-mei=Yoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TokumotoKana en-aut-sei=Tokumoto en-aut-mei=Kana kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KubokiTakuo en-aut-sei=Kuboki en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Oral Rehabilitation and Regenerative Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=Computer-assisted surgery kn-keyword=Computer-assisted surgery en-keyword=Computer-aided design kn-keyword=Computer-aided design en-keyword=Tomography kn-keyword=Tomography en-keyword=X-Ray Computed kn-keyword=X-Ray Computed en-keyword=Artifact kn-keyword=Artifact END
