Influence of root anatomy on periodontal disease

Abitbol, T; LoPresti, J; Santi, E
One of the essential elements of periodontal therapy is long-term maintenance. Anatomic factors that favor localized plaque accumulation may contribute to the progression of disease. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the influence of root concavities on the severity of furcation involvement. Measurements were recorded clinically at the time of surgical treatment. Statistical analysis revealed no significant association between the degree of root concavity and the severity of furcation involvement

Microleakage of CAD-CAM porcelain restorations

LoPresti, J T; David, S; Calamia, J R
PURPOSE: To evaluate the microleakage of CAD-CAM porcelain inlay restorations cemented with four different dual cure resin cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty human extracted caries-free molar teeth were prepared with a Class II MOD cavity design. One proximal box ended on enamel and the other on root surface dentin. The teeth were divided into six groups of five samples each. Two groups were restored with a direct placement composite resin to serve as a control. The other four groups were restored with CAD/CAM-generated ceramic inlays that were cemented with four dual cure resin cements. All specimens were thermocycled. Microleakage of the restorations was assessed by dye penetration. RESULTS: Compared to direct placement resin composite which demonstrated an excellent enamel marginal seal, CAD/CAM-generated porcelain inlays produced excellent marginal seals at both the enamel and dentin interfaces

Removal of enamel surface stains with at-home vital bleaching [Case Report]

Settembrini, L; LoPresti, J; Scherer, W
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE:To report the results obtained with an at-home bleaching product in the removal of enamel surface stains. MATERIALS AND METHODS/METHODS:An individualized vacuum-formed mouthguard was fabricated and scalloped so that the terminal portion of the mouthguard ended approximately 1.0 mm from the gingiva. The patient was instructed to brush his teeth with Rembrandt Whitening Toothpaste prior to and after using the Rembrandt Gel Plus bleaching gel. In addition, the patient was informed as to the proper method of placing the gel in the mouthguard, and inserting the mouthguard into his mouth. The mouthguard was to be worn for 2-3 hours a day for a 2-week period. RESULTS:At the end of 2 weeks, the enamel surface stains were removed through the bleaching process.

New concepts in restorative dentistry. The CEREC CAD/CAM system

LoPresti, J T; David, S B
The CEREC system offers the dentist a conservative means to esthetically restore posterior teeth in a single patient visit. It uses advanced restorative materials. It does not require traditional impression techniques, temporaries or outside laboratories. Seven-year recalls in Europe and five-year recalls in the United States establish a firm basis for predicting continued clinical success of these restorations. The technology is currently being taught in 13 dental schools in the United States. Four schools are continuing clinical research
