Article: It Is Time for a Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation Approach: A Scoping Review on Stomatognathic Diseases in Neurological Disorders.

Militi, Angela / Bonanno, Mirjam / Calabrò, Rocco Salvatore

2023 Volume 12, Issue 10

Abstract	Patients affected by neurological disorders can develop stomatognathic diseases (SD) related to decreased bite force and quality of mastication, bruxism, severe clicking and other temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which deeply affect patients' swallowing, masticatory and phonation functions and, therefore, their quality of life. The diagnosis is commonly based on medical history and physical examination, paying attention to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) range of movements, jaw sounds and mandibular lateral deviation. Diagnostic tools such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are used instead in case of equivocal findings in the anamnesis and physical evaluation. However, stomatognathic and temporomandibular functional training has not been commonly adopted in hospital settings as part of formal neurorehabilitation. This review is aimed at describing the most frequent pathophysiological patterns of SD and TMD in patients affected by neurological disorders and their rehabilitative approach, giving some clinical suggestions about their conservative treatment. We have searched and reviewed evidence published in PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus and Cochrane Library between 2010 and 2023. After a thorough screening, we have selected ten studies referring to pathophysiological patterns of SD/TMD and the conservative rehabilitative approach in neurological disorders. Given this, the current literature is still poor and unclear about the administration of these kinds of complementary and rehabilitative approaches in neurological patients suffering from SD and/or TMD.

Abstract	Minimal root-canal preparation has been suggested to reduce the risk of root fracture, but as a result, satisfactory cleaning and shaping do not take place. Large-scale taper instrumentation can contribute to removing infected tissue; however, it may weaken the tooth structure. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate whether root-canal shaping with low-taper instruments decreases the risk of root fracture, compared to high-conicity shaping. A search was performed on Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and the Web of Science. The inclusion criteria were: studies comparing the root fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth, shaped with low- and high-conicity taper instruments, in human trials, and via in vitro study. The review includes all types of endodontically treated teeth, with various instrument tapers. The scientific search engines produced 328 results. Only 20 of the results were evaluated after screening. Based on the articles analyzed, it is not clear whether a taper difference can determine differences in root fracture resistance. No randomized controlled trial (RCTs) with long follow-ups have been published to date. It must also be taken into account that the in vitro studies do not consider the numerous differences that there are between in vitro and clinical evaluation. The review was registered on the PROSPERO website, with the protocol number CRD42020151451.

Abstract	Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a complex disorder with significant clinical consequences for people with Down Syndrome (DS). OSAS is frequently seen in individuals with DS and, when present, tends to be more severe than in individuals without this syndrome. Evidence acquisition: The analysis was carried out on PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane library databases. The literature review identified nine studies suitable for our evaluations according to the established inclusion criteria. Evidence synthesis: The results of the study suggest that OSAS may be a common comorbidity in adolescents with DS; according to literature evidences a widespread screening and treatment in children with DS is undoubtedly useful. There is also evidence about an association between sleep disturbance and functional activities of daily living in children with DS. Conclusions: The studies reviewed confirm that OSAS appears to occur at higher rates and greater severity in the population of children with DS. However, at present, there are no reliable clinical predictors of OSAS for this population of children.

Abstract	As well known success in orthodontics is related to a correct diagnosis and to a carefull treatment planning. Our study aims to provide clinician with a reproducible and precise method, for orthodontic indirect bonding, thanks to CBCT images and due to a CAD-CAM process. Methods: A case of an orthodontic treatment plan, of a female patient, 37 years old, was selected. Plaster models were digitally acquired using the Extra-Oral scanner Maestro 3D and processed within the Studio Maestro 3D software. CBCT images in DICOM format were imported into the MIMICS software, in order to perform the segmentation of the dental elements, and to obtain a three-dimensional coronal-root dental arches model. The DICOM file thus processed was exported in an STL file, reworked with Meshmixer software to improve image quality, and imported into the 3D Maestro software to be superimposed on the digital model. In this way a three-dimensional real model of the dental arches was developed. After an accurate orthodontic virtual set-up, we proceeded to brackets positioning on the 3D model of the dental arches. Subsequently, a virtual transfer template was created, in order to carry out the digital printing of a thermo-printed mask necessary to perform an indirect bonding of the orthodontic appliance. Results: The original digital workflow proposed in this study allows the development of a real and non-ideal three-dimensional coronal-root model of the dental arches; this model can be used for indirect orthodontic bonding eliminating any errors in the expression of 1st, 2nd and 3rd order information of the pre-informed orthodontic appliance. Conclusions: Technological advancements in oral scanning and 3D printing will allow the achievement of an easy and reproducible ideal positioning of the orthodontic brackets.

Abstract	Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate some of the clinical variables that influence the accuracy of reproducing the planned attachment shape. The following clinical variables were considered: the template material, type of composite, and pressure application on the template during attachment curing. Methods: In this study, the evaluated materials for the thermoplastic transfer template construction are Erkolen 0.8 (polyethylene: PE) and Erkodur 0.8 (polyethylene terephthalate glycol-PET-G), and two types of composite resins: Enaflow (light-curing low-viscosity composite resin) and Enamel plus dentina HRI (light-curing high-viscosity composite resin). Two different light-curing lamps were used: Valo cordless color with no pressure and push light pressure (SCS). The 26 models included in the study were imported into the 3 Shape Ortho System 2022 (ver. 85.0.20 3 Shape, Denmark), and attachments were virtually placed on the dental elements of the first premolar and on both sides of the first upper molars. The accuracy of the attachment reproduction was evaluated through linear and angular evaluations against the reference model (MCAD). Three physical models were obtained: model A (MA), which was printed with attachments; model B (MB) with attachments made with a PE template; and model C (MC) with attachments made with a PET-G template. Results: The results showed statistically significant differences ( Conclusions: In light of the obtained data, using a PET-G template is recommended. The pressure application during composite curing reduces the reproduction accuracy with a low-viscosity composite.

Abstract	Introduction: Cleft lip-palate is the most common craniofacial congenital anomaly. Patients with Cleft lip palate require treatment with a multidisciplinary approach from birth to enable independent feeding and physiological growth. In the past, the fabrication of therapeutic devices for a child with a cleft lip palate was executed through conventional dental impression materials , with the risk of suffocation. The use of a digital workflow minimizes impression-related risks and streamlines procedures. Methods: This study aims to propose a hybrid workflow that can combine the advantages of digital workflow with the advantages of analog workflow that can be applied daily by clinicians treating cleft lip-palate-affected patients. Results: The device created was immediately accepted by the patient allowing autonomous nutrition. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the device was done by body weight assessment every 15 days. Conclusion: The patient had growth comparable to that of a child born healthy.

Abstract	Background: Body image and psychosocial functioning represent central challenges during adolescence and early adulthood. Malocclusion, defined as an irregularity in the alignment of the teeth, is known to negatively influence psychological outcomes. The current study aimed to elucidate the role of malocclusion, together with age, gender, and dental class, in body image and psychological functioning. Methods: A total of 126 participants aged from 12 to 19 years old (mean: 15.87, SD: 2.35, female participants: 52.4%, male participants: 47.6%) were recruited. Participants were visited at the University Hospital of Messina, Italy, and completed a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Body Image Concern Inventory (I-BICI), and the Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire (PIDAQ). Results: Significant correlations were found between age, dental class, the BICI, and the PIDAQ. In particular, age showed a positive and significant correlation with PIDAQ-total score. The correlations between occlusal status and the BICI variables were all significant and positive. All correlations between occlusal status and the PIDAQ variables were all significant and positive, except for dental self-confidence. The correlations between the variables of the PIDAQ and BICI instruments were all significant and positive, except for dental self-confidence, where the directions were significant and negative. Moreover, age, gender, and occlusal status predicted BICI and PIDAQ scores. Age was a positive predictor for PIDAQ self-confidence, gender for BICI and PIDAQ total scores, along with dysmorphic symptoms, social impact, psychological impact, and aesthetic concerns. Several significant gender differences were highlighted by the analyses, with higher scores in the female group on all the BICI variables, except symptom interference, and all the PIDAQ variables, except dental self-confidence. Conclusions: Malocclusion appeared to play a central role in the psychological, representational, and psychosocial life of the participants. This research suggests that malocclusion and dental issues influence the psychological, representational, and psychosocial life of adolescents. Further research is required to examine the psychological impact of dental problems.

Abstract	This systematic review aims to highlight the differences between different clear aligner therapies that differ in the presence of attachments or in attachment configuration. Eight electronic databases were searched up to March 2020. Two authors independently proceeded to study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. The analysis of the results was carried out examining six groups of movements (mesio-distal tipping/bodily movement; anterior bucco-lingual tipping/root torque; posterior bucco-lingual tipping/expansion; intrusion; extrusion; rotation). Five clinical trials were selected and all of them showed a medium risk of bias. Literature showed that attachments mostly increase the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment with clear aligners, improving anterior root torque, rotation, and mesio-distal (M-D) movement; they are also important to increase posterior anchorage. However, some articles showed contradictory or not statistically significant results. Attachments also seem to improve intrusion, but the evidence about this movement, as well as extrusion, is lacking. No studies evaluated posterior bucco-lingual tipping/expansion. Further clinical trials are strongly suggested to clarify the influence of attachments and their number, size, shape, and position on each orthodontic movement.
