For our study, 39 prefabricated lower right molar teeth (no: 46) placed on the Frasaco phantom mandible were used. These prefabricated teeth were scanned with the Sirona Cerec imaging system. Sixteen of these teeth were prepared with the classical method, while the other twenty-three teeth were prepared with guide slotted tooth cutting. Then, saggital and frontal sections of the images between the prepared crown and the original were taken with the Cerec system, and the material removal thicknesses were examined for both sections. 3D scans of each cut prefabricated tooth were standardized from 9 regions that we took as reference. 3D scans made with CAD-CAM were sent to 3D4U Teknoloji LTD.ŞTİ. The measurements made by the company on 3D scans...

If I ever felt satisfied by one system and I applied it in the same way without acquiring new knowledge or discovering more advanced technologies and materials, I would consider myself ready for retirement, which I am certainly not. My voyage through digital technology, however, has just reached a natural conclusion. I realised recently that I had progressed through all aspects of digital technology as it relates to orthodontic treatment and I had completed a circle (Fig. 1).

Sabit ortodontik tedavi goren hastalarda en sik rastlanan sorunlar ise dis etlerinde kanama, odem ve buyumeye neden olan dis eti iltihabi ile mine yuzeylerinde gorulen beyaz nokta lezyonlaridir. Bu durum, tedavi surecinde kullanilan braket, bant, ark teli gibi materyallerin dental plak birikimine ortam hazirlamasindan kaynaklanmaktadir. Ayrica arastirmalar, sabit ortodontik atacmanlarin yapistirilmasi sonrasinda agiz florasinda curuk yapici patojenlerin sayisinda artis oldugunu gostermektedir. Ortodontik tedavi ile hastanin kapanis bozuklugu duzeltilirken, agiz hijyeninin bozulmasini ve curuk veya periodontal problemlerin olusmasini engellemek icin cesitli onlemler alinmalidir. Bu bireylerde agiz hijyeninin saglanmasinda ozel olarak tasarlanmis dis fircalari, arayuz fircalari, teller arasindan gecebilen dis iplerinin kullanimi oneri...

A protocol for the treatment of cleft patients should followed by the healthcare providers, and coordination amongst them is a major contributor to success in cleft treatment.

The demand for orthodontic treatment has increased with every passing day and brought many innovations together. In the past, the bands that were pasted with cement on the teeth and applied force were not both aesthetic and difficult to get detailed tooth movements and tired. Over the years, the bands have left their place to bracket systems and it has become an important issue to be able to connect the brackets to the tooth surface satisfactorily in the field of orthodontics. New developments in adhesive systems, bracket types, bracket base structures, different enamel surface etching methods, improvements in the used polymerizers have helped to improve the bonding strength between tooth and bracket. All these developments enabled the orthodontist to meet less difficulty in the treatment process and to perform faster treatments.
