🌟 Exciting Advances in Orthodontics: The Future of Customization and Efficiency 🌟 The landscape of orthodontics is rapidly evolving, and customization is at the forefront of this transformation. As we look to the future, personalized treatment plans tailored to individual patient needs will become the gold standard in every orthodontic office. **Customization is Key** Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all approaches. Customization allows us to address unique dental structures, jaw alignments, and patient preferences. By embracing customized appliances and treatment plans, we can optimize outcomes and patient comfort like never before. **CBCT Integration: Maximizing Efficiency** Integrating Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) into our workflows is essential for efficiency and precision. CBCT provides detailed 3D imaging, enabling us to visualize root positions accurately and plan treatments with unprecedented accuracy. This integration streamlines diagnostics and treatment planning, enhancing both patient care and practice efficiency. **Root Focused Set Ups: Maximizing Effectiveness** Innovative techniques like "root focused set ups" are revolutionizing orthodontic care. By focusing on precise root movements, we can achieve optimal results while minimizing treatment duration and discomfort. Ignoring these critical root dynamics is akin to ignoring the desired outcome altogether. In conclusion, the future of orthodontics lies in embracing customization and advanced technologies like CBCT. Let's continue to prioritize individualized care, maximize efficiency, and ultimately transform smiles and lives through tailored orthodontic solutions. Together, we're shaping a brighter future for orthodontics! 💫 ⛔️ Be advised! You must watch the ROOTS! In particular, watch for (and eliminate) translation at the root apex. Setups based on clinical crowns alone will most certainly send roots flying in all kinds of crazy directions. Watch for it. Avoid root apex movement as much as possible. Your patients will thank you. Their teeth will thank you. With this one change, you will enter the true efficiency game. #Orthodontics  #Customization  #CBCTIntegration  #DentalInnovation #LightForce #LightPlan #TechnologyInnovation  #DigitalTransformation #Ortho3 #rootfocusedorthodontics #simpleorthoeducation #nextlevelortho #simpleortho #simpleorthodontics #dentistry #CBCTinorthodontics

EYE DEFECT: MYOPIA Introduction to Eye Defects Like you may have noticed, the human eyes gradually lose their power of accommodation. In such cases, the person cannot see distinctly and comfortably. There are three common eye defects, and they are(i) myopia or near-sightedness, (ii) Hypermetropia or far-sightedness, and (iii) Presbyopia. These defects are corrected by the use of suitable spherical lenses. In the article, we focus on myopia and its correction. What is Myopia? Myopia is also known as near-sightedness or short-sightedness. What happens here is that light rays do not focus on the surface of the retina but in front of it. This results in images being blurry when perceived. In such a case, distant images appear out of focus but objects nearby are seen clearly. This is why myopia is also called near or short-sightedness. It can occur if the eyeball is elongated leading to image formation in front of the retina. It can also occur if the refracting power of the lens is affected due to the cornea or lens being too curved. This effect can be more pronounced with age. A combination of these effects will also lead to myopia. Correcting Myopia It is important to remember that Myopia is an eye defect and not an eye disease. Therefore, it can be corrected. Since the image is formed in front of the retina, correcting this problem can counter the effects produced due to this. The below image depicts how the disease can be countered theoretically. It can be done in the following ways. The treatment of myopia consists of managing both the visual acuity loss and the complications that may arise. Treatment of the blurred vision in myopia has had a long and checkered history. Everything from physical exercise to palming the eyes to having myopic students study in green rooms has been advocated at one time or another. Sight-saving classes, exercises, under-correction, cycloplegic therapy, contact lenses, pinhole glasses, and many other therapies have been aimed at preventing or slowing the progression of myopia. Surgery has been advocated to retard the progression of staphylomas in pathological myopia. A few of these therapies deserve mention. Did you know that reading books at close range or watching television at close range can lead to Myopia? This is because the eye gets used to a near focus and adapts to that. If your vision is perfect now, avoid such kinds of habits so that it doesn’t lead to acquired disease. Although this is a defect that can be countered, severe myopia (power above -6) can lead to the detachment of the retina which could result in loss of vision. #healthcare #optometry #eye #vision

The SHORT Case Of The Day! Tooth #19 ~ Perio Defect? Vertical Root Fracture? Patient came with discomfort on tooth #19. It had a large furcation lesion that was “J” shaped. The dx was a necrotic pulp with chronic apical periodontitis. A LFOV 3D CBCT was taken. You can see the lesion breakdown in the furcation and the lesion wraps around the distal root. Is this a crack? Is this a vertical fracture? Should this be extracted due to a periodontal defect? There was no probing or mobility. Endodontic treatment was performed in one visit. There were four canals with separate portals of exits. Bioceramic Sealer and single cone gutta percha was used in this case. Patient returned in 8 months with remarkable healing at the apex of both roots and even in the inter-radicular area where it is difficult to regenerate bone in this area. #endodontickeysandcases #dentistry #endodontics #DrRicoShort #bioceramics #CBCT #rootcanals #defects #furcation #crack #perio #endo Dr. Rico D.

Orthodontic Treatments: Tailored for Individual Needs and Quality of Life Orthodontic interventions are pivotal, aimed at correcting diverse dental irregularities. While research suggests that up to 93% of individuals exhibit some degree of malocclusion, the decision to undergo treatment involves more than just diagnosing a condition. It requires a nuanced understanding of each patient’s medical needs, aesthetic desires, and personal preferences, which are often shaped by societal norms and dental healthcare systems. Why do patients choose to get their teeth aligned? For many, orthodontic care goes beyond the quest for a perfect smile—it enhances functionality and overall quality of life. From alleviating eating discomfort to improving speech, the impact of correcting a malocclusion can be profound and transformative. As orthodontists, our role extends beyond mere treatment providers. We are tasked with discerning not only who needs care but also the level of intervention appropriate for each individual. We listen, evaluate, and recommend, ensuring that our approach aligns with our patients' unique needs and life stories. But here lies a compelling question: What is considered necessary treatment for one individual might be seen as unnecessary for another. How do we, as specialists, navigate these individual decisions, ensuring that each patient receives care that truly benefits them? Let's discuss and delve deeper into the complexities of orthodontic needs and treatment individuality. #Orthodontics #DentalCare #PatientCare #Healthcare #ProfessionalNetworking #Ortodontiakademin

More patients than ever before are seeking orthodontic care but solutions for the most common orthodontic emergencies have not kept pace with the new demand from patients. There is a new trend of more patients, from children to adults, getting braces and aligners – and in fact, the orthodontic industry is expected to triple in size by 2028, which redefines practice and patient needs. To change the status quo, we’ve designed OrthoNu’s line of products to focus on emergency care, oral hygiene, oral aesthetics, and oral health, reducing the massive impact of emergency visits and elevating the patient experience throughout treatment.

Endo Vs Restorative - FAILURE 😞 Patient came in pain on tooth #19. There were large apical lesions on both roots. Endodontic treatment was performed in one visit and the patient was referred back to his dentist for the restoration. Patient returned in 6 months for an evaluation. The apical area was healing well however there was pathology in the furcation. It appears as if a perforation was made upon the restoration. I asked the patient to let me repair it with MTA. She decided not to have it done now but will return later. She returned 2 years later with a sinus tract present. There was more breakdown in the furcation and a fracture noted. However, the periapical area has continued to heal beautifully. She will now need an extraction and implant. Perforation Repair Keys: 1. Studies show the perforation should be repaired as soon as possible for the highest success rates. 2. Coronal perforations have lower success than apical perforations. 3. MTA or Bioceramic Material is still the gold standard to repair perforations ( powder mix or putty). MTA provides an effective seal of root perforations and can be considered a potential repair material enhancing the prognosis of perforated teeth that would otherwise be compromised. I speak about perforation and materials to repair them in my textbook Endodontic Keys And Cases: A Clinical Guide To Modern Root Canal Therapy https://a.co/d/255hypF #DrRicoShort #perforation #crack #dentistry #endodontics #healing #repair #MTA #endodontickeysandcases Dr. Rico D.

Deciding if you need teeth whitening depends on several factors including the level of discoloration, your dental health, and personal cosmetic goals. Discoloration can occur due to various reasons such as consumption of staining foods and drinks, smoking, and the natural aging process. If you are self-conscious about the color of your teeth or simply desire a brighter smile, teeth whitening might be a beneficial option. However, it's essential to consult with a dental professional to ensure that your teeth and gums are healthy enough for the whitening process, and to discuss the most effective and safe methods available.
