Case: Radix entomolaris was an additional root that located on the distolingual of mandibular first molars. In this case, the radix entomolaris was detected clinically and radiographically with root canal configuration such as curves. An awareness and understanding of this unusual root and root canal morphology could contribute to the successful outcome of endodontic treatment. Conclusion: Root canal treatment on this case shows the lack of symptoms and normal radiographic presentation for two months follow-up.展开更多

文摘目的:对下颌第一磨牙拔除后行种植修复的病例进行回顾性研究,探索重度牙周破坏(advanced periodontal defect,APD)对拔牙后种植手术方式的影响。方法:纳入下颌第一磨牙拔除后自然愈合3~12个月行种植手术的患者176例,共179个种植位点,进行回顾性分析,记录患者年龄、性别、缺牙时间以及拔牙时是否有APD。采用多因素Logistic回归,分析拔牙前APD是否是种植时行引导性骨再生(guided bone regeneration,GBR)的风险因素。结果:对年龄、性别、缺牙时间等因素校正后,结果显示,有APD的下颌第一磨牙,种植时行GBR的风险是无APD位点的4.738倍(95%可信区间:1.650~13.609,P<0.05)。结论:APD的下颌第一磨牙拔除后,种植手术时行GBR的可能性更大。
