With great pride and honor, I welcome you all to the two-day dental conference of the 5th Riyadh International Dental Meeting & Exhibition. This year’s theme is “New Era in Esthetic Dentistry”.

The College of Dentistry continues to organize structured dental meetings and conferences as extra-curricular and continuous education activities for all dental professionals across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia thereby updating participants with innovative advancements and current scientific research reports.

Cutting-edge technology in health education, clinical care, disease prevention, health promotion and management is driving health professions today. Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy is proud to be part of this exciting experience.

We notice that every year, attendance at our conferences continues to go up. The Organizing Committee is delighted at this because it is an indication of the quality and relevance of the Themes of these conferences. Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy will continue to guarantee that these conferences including the Pre and Post-conference continuing education courses and symposia are of high quality.

In particular, we thank the regional and international speakers from outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for gracing the Conference with their participation and presentations. Our partners in oral health care delivery, the dental industry representatives from near and far, are strongly represented at this meeting. We thank them for their presence and support. They exhibit the “latest and the best” dental hardware equipment and instruments which will surely enhance the “best practice” of the dental professionals.

RCDP Overview

Riyadh, which lies in the Central Region, is the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and now rivals any modern city in the world in the splendor of its architecture. Broad highways sweep through the city, passing over or under each other in an impressive and still growing road network. Trees now bedeck the broad streets and avenues, giving pleasure to passers-by and shade to those who linger beneath them. Today the city extends for some 600 square miles (1600 square kilometers) and has a population of more than 5.8 million.

The name Riyadh is derived from the Arabic word meaning a place of gardens and trees («rawdah»). With many wadis (a former water course, now dry) in the vicinity, Riyadh has been since antiquity a fertile area set in the heartland of the Arabian Peninsula. Of all the Kingdom›s developmental achievements, Riyadh is perhaps the most obvious and accessible to the foreign visitor. From the moment a visitor arrives at the King Khalid International Airport, a marvellous complex which welded traditional Arab style with the best of modern architecture in a happy mix of spacious practicality to the time the hotel is reached, the visitor cannot but be impressed by the expansive development of Riyadh.

The Municipality of the city has 17 branches in various quarters. The main features of Riyadh are:

QASR-AL-HUKM AREA DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

The Qasr-al-Hukm Area Development Project lies in the center of the city of Riyadh where the office of the Governor of the Riyadh region is located. The Project was designed to develop the area around the Governor›s palace, while preserving the sites of historical interest which lie within the area - most notably, the Al-Masmak Palace from which Abdul Aziz (Ibn Saud) set out to unify the Kingdom early in the 20th century. The site includes both cultural and commercial centers, together with all the other facilities of a modern city center. In the heart of the development is Qasr-al-Hukm, the office of the Governor of Riyadh, containing the administrative offices of the Governorate and the Grand Reception Hall where, in the Kingdom›s tradition of consultation, the Governor receives citizens, listens to their problems and ensures that he is kept fully informed of all aspects of the region›s life.

Riyadh Landmarks

DIPLOMATIC QUARTER

Apart from its importance as a seat of government and as a thriving commercial center, Riyadh is also a center of Arab diplomacy. Located five miles (8 km) from the center of the city of Riyadh, on high ground overlooking the Wadi Hanifa and the vast expanse of desert behind, lies the Diplomatic Quarter. This unique complex of diplomatic buildings and facilities, housing the embassies and consulates of many countries, occupies an area of 8.4 million square yards (7 million square meters) and is the venue for many international Arab meetings.

THE MINISTRY OF INFORMATION COMPLEX

This broadcasting nerve center contains the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting station and television studio. It is capped by a 176 meter tower of Ornate design.

THE FOREIGN MINISTRY COMPLEX

The Foreign Ministry Complex in Riyadh is one of the most outstanding examples of modern architecture in the entire Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Its combination of elements of traditional Arabic design with the most modern construction techniques furnishes a magnificent example of the harmony that can be achieved when tradition and modernity are blended together with care and sensitivity.

Riyadh Landmarks

20

THE MINISTRY OF INTERIOR This example of massive modern design hovers over one of the city›s central areas.

KING FAHD INTERNATIONAL STADIUMDesigned in a shape of a large round Arabic tent, this lavish stadium contains a football field accommodates 80,000 fans. The King Fahd

International Stadium, which can accommodate 80,000 spectators, was established by the General Presidency of Youth Welfare in 1988. Its remarkable tent-like design, constructed from hard-wearing, fireproof material, is the venue for many major events in the Kingdom.

KING KHALID INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTThe King Khalid International Airport was opened in 1983 (140304/ AH). Located 35 kilometers north of Riyadh, with a land area of 225 square kilometers, the King Khalid International Airport is a masterpiece of modern architecture, blending traditional Arab design with the requirements of efficiency, and incorporating into the whole the essential Islamic character of the Kingdom. It is decorated with the works of many Saudi artists. It has four terminals and, from its inauguration, had the capacity to handle 7.5 million passengers a year. By the year 2000 (142021/ AH), its capacity was more than 8.3 million passengers a year.

RIYADH ZOOThe Riyadh Zoo is one of the most popular leisure facilities in Riyadh. The Riyadh Zoo, first formed in 1957, was originally a small-scale affair, consisting of animals presented as gifts to the first three kings of Saudi Arabia. In 1987, a new and entirely refurbished zoo was opened.

The new Riyadh Zoo was designed to provide the animals with room to move and suitable places to rest. Today the Riyadh Zoo contains some 40 species, including bears, birds of prey, camels, elephants, hyenas, gazelles, leopards, lamas, lions, monkeys, rhinoceroses, tigers and a number of reptiles.

WATER TOWERThe location of the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the heart of the Arabian Peninsula has meant that the provision of adequate supplies of water has always been a priority. The area was rich in natural water supplies in earlier times but, with the dramatic expansion of Riyadh city, it was inevitable that water supplies would become depleted. The drilling of deep artesian wells was explored as one solution. An artesian well with a depth of 4,600 feet (1,400 meters) was drilled, with success, in 1956 but it was quickly realized that such methods, which ran the danger of contaminating the water table with sea water from the eastern region, could not provide a long-term solution.

KING ABDULAZIZ CENTER (NATIONAL MUSEUM)The National Museum occupies a vast area on the premises of the King Abdul Aziz Historical Centre. The museum has an interesting display of manuscripts, documents, antiques and much more. All the eight halls have the display arranged in a chronological order - from

the creation of the earth and universe to present day Riyadh, it›s all there!

Riyadh Landmarks

KING FAHAD NATIONAL LIBRARY MUSEUMThe museum is specialized in keeping and presenting rare manuscripts and books in addition to a collection of different coins. The museum has obtained original manuscripts estimated to be 300 in number, in addition to 12,000 microfilmed photos of manuscripts besides 14,000 manuscripts tombstones and tools used in writing. There are about 10,000 rare books besides 13,000 on microfilms. The museum includes a manuscript of the Holy Book that goes back to the Third Hijra Century. It is a Kufi Holy Book written on leather.

AL FAISALIYAH CENTERThe Al Faisaliyah Center is a commercial skyscraper located in the business district of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It is the second tallest building in Saudi Arabia after the Kingdom Centre. Immediately below it an outside viewing deck; at ground level, there is a shopping center with major world brands. The Al Faisaliyah Center is about 267 meters high and consists of 44 floors.

BURJ AL-MAMLAKAKingdom Centre also called Burj Al-Mamlaka is a skyscraper located in the city of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It is the tallest skyscraper in Saudi Arabia (will be

surpassed by Abraj Al Bait Towers) and the 55th tallest building in the world with a height of 302.3 m (992 ft). It›s also the third tallest building with hole in the world (after SWFC and Tuntex Sky Tower).[3] It is also host to the highest mosque in the world after the mosque in the Burj Khalifa. The Tower Contains a total of 41 floors and 2 basement levels.[1] The Kingdom Centre is owned by Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, a prince of the Saudi royal family. It is also the headquarters of his holding company: Kingdom Holding Company. The total cost of the project was US$ 1 billion[citation needed] and the contract was taken by Saudi Arabian Al-Seif and The Italian Impregilo

CAD-CAM Dental Systems: Present Status and Future Outlook

Conference Hall-A09:00 – 10:00

The past two decades have witnessed significant changes in our life style due to digital technology. The internet, satellites, cell phones, revolutionized access to information and our methods to communicate. Gigabytes of digital documents, audio and video files can be held in the palm of our hand. While digital technology is being incorporated in all facets of life, dentistry has been quite successful in adapting this technology from other fields to create new diagnostic tools and new treatment delivery systems. Examples of such novel technology application range from the basic use of a digital camera for case analysis, documentation and presentation, to the use of digital radiology and cone beam CT to create detailed 3-D images of soft tissues and bones. A revolutionary use of 3-D imaging is the ability to create digital impressions and virtual models and using sophisticated software to fabricate dental restorations, a field known as Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM). CAD CAM was introduced to dentistry in the early 1980. Presently multiple CAD-CAM systems are available to both dental labs and to dentists. These systems can be categorized to the chair-side in-office systems, the dental laboratory systems, and the dental laboratory-production center systems. In the in-office systems, a virtual model of the preparation is produced through a digital scan. The restoration is designed virtually and then milled chair-side allowing for a single appointment indirect esthetic porcelain restoration. Examples for the chair-side systems are the Cerec from Sirona and the E4D from D4D technologies. The dental laboratory systems require the dentist to send an impression either physical or digital of the prepared and opposing teeth to the laboratory. The dental laboratory scans the model and designs the restorations using data acquisition and design software. The data are fed to a unit to mill the restoration. The restoration is then sintered and veneered to final shape. Examples for this category are Cerconsmart ceramics from DeguDent and Everest from KaVo. In the dental laboratory-production center model, the dental laboratory designs the restorations using data acquisition and design software. The design is then sent to a production center where a coping is fabricated using CAD CAM technology. The coping is sent back to the dental laboratory for veneering the final product. Example to these systems includes 3M’s Lava, and Nobel Biocare’s Procera.

Most of the CAD CAM restorations are fabricated from porcelain. For the chair-side systems the restorations are milled from high-glass ceramic blocks. The CAD CAM restorations fabricated by the labs are mainly a milled no-glass ceramic coping veneered with a high-glass porcelain. Hybrid composite such as Paradigm MZ100 (3M ESPE) is another type of material used in CAD/CAM technology. It is used with the CEREC 3D and the CEREC in lab system for milling inlays, onlays, veneers and full crown restorations. High-performance polymer composites are also available, such as the C-temp blanks used by Everest (KaVo Dental) for longer lasting temporary fillings and for bridge frameworks of up to six units. Nobel Biocare’s Procera system and Kavo’s Everest can also mill titanium, such as T-Blanks and DC-Titan, made out of pure titanium and used for traditional crown and bridgework.

Dental Erosion-Diagnosis-Riskfactor-PreventionConference Hall-A

11:00 – 11:45 Dental erosion is the dissolution of the tooth by acids without involvement of microorganisms. The acids originate from outside (acidic food and/or beverages) or from inside (reflux or vomiting of the acidic gastric juice). Erosion is becoming an increasingly important factor when considering the long term health of the dentition. There is some evidence that the presence of this condition is growing steadily. It is important that diagnosis of erosion in children and adults is made early. However, there is no diagnostic device available for early clinical detection and quantification of dental erosion. Therefore, the clinical appearance is the most important sign for dental professionals to diagnose erosion.

Adequate preventive measures can only be initiated when the risk factors are known and interactions between them are present.

Furthermore, recommendations for patients at risk for dental erosion will be discussed and reconstructed cases will be presented.

Porcelain Laminate Veneers: “Prep” vs. “No Prep”Conference Hall-A

14:30 – 15:00

Porcelain Laminate Veneers remain one of the most consistent, esthetic and predictable restorative procedure. Team work is paramount for a final outstanding outcome. Due to their conservativeness, there is a current growing popularity in “no-prep” veneers which has created a lot of attention within the dental profession and the general public. However, many clinicians remain skeptical as to the ability to create clinically acceptable veneers using this concept. This presentation will discuss the use of conventional veneer versus minimal preparation veneers in cosmetic cases, as well as address the subject of the “no-prep” concept. Included within this discussion will be review of indication of each type of laminate veneers, case selection, material selection, preparation, impression techniques, temporization procedures, and delivery techniques.

Recent Advances in Posterior Composite and Glass Ionomer Technology


SDR stands for ‹Smart Dentin Replacement› and is the most recent DENTSPLY composite. SDR has the capacity to accelerate and simplify the restorative treatment process significantly: while conventional composites require layering and light-curing of each individual increment, SDR is indicated for the restoration of dentin cores of Class I and II defects in bulk-fill technique. Moreover, due to its flowable consistency, SDR is capable of self-adapting to the cavity geometry without condensation. This treatment approach is made possible because shrinkage stress occurring with SDR is about 50% reduced compared to what is measured for conventional flowable composites. While other materials with reduced volumetric shrinkage employ entirely new resin chemistry, SDR is still based on established methacrylate resins and therefore fully compatible with any conventional composite or bonding agent. Therefore the restoration›s final enamel layer can be placed with the dentist›s composite of choice.ChemFil Rock is DENTSPLY›s latest Glass Ionomer restorative. Its technology is based on so called zinc-modified reactive filler, which leads to significantly improved wear and fracture resistance both initially (right after placement) and after complete set. Because early micro cracks represent weak spots in regards to the clinical longevity of Glass Ionomers, their prevention is key for a restoration›s long-term success. At this stage, chewing simulations indicate a clinical longevity of ChemFil Rock in the range of two years.

Subsequent to the lecture, participants will have the opportunity to experience the application procedure and handling characteristics of both SDR and ChemFil Rock on cavity models.

Esthetic Challenges in MIH (Molar Incisor Hypomineralization )Conference Hall-A

16:45 – 17:15

Esthetic problems in childhood and adolescence can have a significant effect on psychosocial development and interaction with peers. Abnormalities of shape, size, colour and structure of the whole or part of the anterior dentition of children can lead to such problems.Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) describes the clinical picture of hypomineralization of systemic origin affecting one or more first permanent molars (FPMs) that are associated frequently with affected incisors that might compromise function as well as esthetics of affected teeth. Etiological associations with systemic conditions or environmental insults during the child›s first 3 years have been implicated. The complex care involved in treating affected children must address their behavior and anxiety, aiming to provide a durable restoration under pain-free conditions. The challenges include adequate esthetic demands of affected anterior teeth, anaesthesia, compatable cavity design, and choice of restorative materials. Restorations in hypomineralized molars appear to fail frequently; there is little evidence-based literature to facilitate clinical decisions on cavity design and material choice. A 6-step approach to management is described: (1) risk identification; (2) early diagnosis; (3) remineralization and desensitization; (4) prevention of caries and posteruption breakdown; (5) restorations and extractions; and (6) maintenance. The high prevalence of MIH indicates the need for research to clarify etiological factors and improve the durability of restorations in affected teeth. The purpose of this abstract was to describe briefly the diagnosis, prevalence, putative etiological factors, and features of hypomineralized enamel in molar incisor hypomineralization and to present a sequential approach to management with respect to the esthetic challenges anterior affected teeth faced with.

Plastic – Aesthetical Periodontal Surgery, Covering Exposed Root Surfaces

Conference Hall-B14:00 – 14:30

Gingival recession can be defined as the exposure of the root surface. It is a small inadequate zone of attached gingival. Forces of muscles, malocclusion, prominent teeth, frenum inserting near the gingival margin, high muscle attachment, shallow vestibulum, oral habits, and a bone resorption are often considered indication for mucogingival surgery.

Some authors even give precise measurements on the minimum width of attached gingival needed for maintaining periodontal health. Soft tissue grafting used to describe a surgical treatment procedure for correction of defects in morphology, position, amount of the soft tissue, and gingival recession. Miller class I, II has a good prognosis for mucogingival surgery Treatment. During the presentation and suggestion, different deviations from what is commonly considered as normal in the mucogingival region will be shown and it will be discussed whether surgery is advisable or not. The presentation will cover the prevalence, etiology and pathogenesis of recession, and methods of treatment (connective tissue graft, soft tissue graft, vasculized positioned flaps) will be discussed.

Esthetic Root Coverage using Acellular Dermal Matrix


Root coverage is indicated to cover unaesthetic and/or painful exposed root surfaces. Patients are more conscious of dental esthetics and are requesting more root coverage procedures. This generates a need for clinicians to develop materials and techniques that will predictably satisfy these patient-centered esthetic demands.

Many root coverage techniques currently used by most clinicians result in varying degrees of success and offer a variety of treatments for such defects.Over the years various modifications of the original techniques have been developed. A new acellular dermal allograft tissue (Alloderm®) has been recently introduced for use in dentistry, although it has been used in medicine for full-thickness burns, the revision of depressed scars and nasal reconstruction, facial defect repair, lip augmentation, and septal perforation repair. In dentistry, its uses include substitution for palatal donor tissue in soft tissue surgeries around natural teeth and implants to increase the zone of keratinized tissue, for tissue augmentation, and for root coverage. The intent of these procedures is principally to create a tissue barrier that is more resistant to further recession due to trauma. Other indications include soft tissue flap extension over bone graft, amalgam tattoo correction, and soft tissue defect repair.

In this lecture advantages and disadvantages of AlloDerm use will be discussed in addition to that some cases will be presented.

Dental Implants in Grafted Jaw BonesConference Hall-B

17:15 – 17:45

Bone grafting is performed to reverse the bone loss / destruction caused by periodontal disease, trauma, or ill fitting removable dentures. It is also used to augment bone to permit implant placement, such as augmenting bone in the sinus area for implant placement, or augmenting bone to enhance the fit and comfort of removable prostheses, or to enhance esthetics of a missing tooth site in the smile zone. When one loses a tooth, as in an extraction, the surrounding bone collapses. To preserve this bone for future implant placement or for esthetics, a bone graft is used.

Replacing missing bone or adding to existing bone is very often essential to the success of a dental implant and the ensuing restoration. The techniques to do this are well documented and should be used when indicated by any dentist who places dental implants. Most of us will have a good idea when additional bone or bone repair will be necessary before actually starting the placement of a dental implant and the patients should be informed of this possibility. Sometimes, however, we do get fooled and run into areas where unexpected bone grafting is indicated. As long as the dentist is prepared to replace or add to the existing bone and the patient understands the bone grafting procedure, there should not be any problem with these techniques.

“SABIRIN” – The Avant-garde in the Implant & Reconstructive Surgery


The increasing emphasis on esthetic perfection in contemporary implant dentistry requires that our goal as implantologists should be to have implants and crowns placed in the same location and appearance as natural teeth and be supported by stable bone and attached gingiva. The primary obstacle in restoration is bone deficiency as mature edentulous sites have lost bone.In the search for success and stability, we have recognized, with experience, observation and time that a comprehensive solution is more predictable, safer, simpler, more stable and less expensive, a concept we call “SABIRIN”.

This presentation includes a progressive discussion of advanced techniques and concepts of bone manipulation, and vascularized osteotomies modified by the author which has made this concept a reality and it is possible now to treat single tooth areas to full arches with a stable alveolar bone and back to full function, esthetics and health.

Management of Full Mouth Rehabilitation by Dental ImplantConference Hall-A

12:00 – 13:00

Introduction: Full mouth reconstruction is the utilization of available treatment modality in dentistry in order to restore form and function of oral cavity. The mouth is a complex machine, without proper bite, chewing can become impaired and teeth can become worn and attritioned. Dental bonding veneers and crown, dental implant and tooth whitening are all a combination of procedure used in restoring a functional mouth. Mouth preparation for dental implant includes the reconstruction of the basal bone because it is the basic foundation for dental implant. In order to get a proper and maintainable osseointegration, the treatment planning for those procedures should put in mind the prosthetic work. Worldwide it is known that the ideal management of comprehensive cases should be handled by prosthodontist and oral surgeon or periodontist in order to get a good result. The aim of this presentation is to describe the different procedures necessary for a function complete mouth rehabilitation in patients.

Method and material: Different cases of full mouth rehabilitation with different surgical approach and technique will be discussed. The presentation will also describe different types of prostheses that were placed in patients at the Riyadh Dental Center.

We can use it in the treatment internal derangements, adhesions, fibrosis, and DJDs. So TMJ arthroscopy may be effective in treating painful joint hypomobility secondary to displaced discs, fibrous adhesions and arthritis. Operative arthroscopy while technically possible, and a viable tool in selected cases, often takes longer and usually allows less surgical flexibility than an open joint procedure. During the lecture I will present movie about the arthroscopic surgery.

Assessment of the Effect of Unilateral Chewing on Masticatory Muscles Volume Using

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)*Abdel Wahab Ahmed, ** Ehab Ismail, *** Shereen M. Shoukry


Unilaterally edentulous subjects mainly use the dentate side, and this is where the majority of chewing occurs. Teeth and muscles play a very important role for occlusal equilibrium and function, so that when teeth loss occurs, the volume as well as the function of the muscles are affected. Materials & Methods; Twenty patients (16 females and 4 males) attending the dental clinics of Kaser Al Aini Hospitals, Cairo University, complaining from being unilaterally edentulous for more than one year and willing for replacing their missing teeth. Also, six fully dentate individuals (2 males and 4 females) were selected as control group. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the masticatory muscles was performed by 1.5 Tesla (T) MRI scanner to assess the sequelae of unilateral chewing on muscles of mastication via comparing the approximate muscular volume of the masseter (MM), medial pterygoid (MPM), temporalis (TM), superior and inferior lateral pterygoid muscles (SLPM/ ILPM) bilaterally. Results showed increase in the approximate muscular volume in the ipsi-lateral side of edentulism except for the (SLPM) in both right side and left side edentulous patients where there was a non-significant (p>0.05) increase in the contra-lateral (SLPM) to the edentulous side. Conclusion; The right (SLPM) is one of the main muscles involved in mastication on the left posterior aspect of the jaw, while the left (SLPM) is one of the main muscles involved in mastication on the right posterior aspect of the jaw, so that in unilateral posterior edentulism the ipsi-lateral (SPLM) is subjected to an increase in the approximate muscle volume, in contrast to the other muscles of mastication which are subjected to decrease in their approximate muscle volumes in comparison with the contra-lateral side.

Lag screw Fixation of Symphysis fracture using Minimal Access technique


Fractures in the curved portions of the bone like the anterior mandible need rigid osteosynthesis. This could be achieved using Lag screw applied by a novel approach called Minimal Access technique. It involves a minimal incision anatomically distant from the fracture thereby minimizing the morbidity associated with the conventional Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF). Many cases have been treated using this technique with reportedly no complication. The advantages of this technique include, the integrity of vascular supply to bone, no facial scar, mentalis dysfunction, or traction injury to mental nerve, and minimal postop edema, recovery time and patient discomfort.

Antioxidant Enzyme s activity in gingival and gingival crevicular fluid in chronic periodontitis patients: Correlation with Some

Potent PeriodontopathogensGamal Kenawy*, Abdul Fattah Amer**, Akram El awady**, Hisham

Mahdy***, and Radi Massoud**Conference Hall-B

10:00 – 10:20 BackgroundPeriodontitis results from an exuberant inflammation induced by pathogenic oral microorganisms that stimulate host cells to release pro-inflammatory cytokines and exhibit increased production of reactive oxygen species. Many naturally occurring antioxidant enzymes; including Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), and Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) are released locally at the sites of inflammation to detoxify reactive oxygen species.

Aim of workTo investigate the activity of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, and GPx) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and inflamed gingival tissues (GT) from chronic periodontitis patients. Correlation of these antioxidants to periodontopathogens: Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum were studied.

MethodsForty subjects, divided into two groups; patients group suffering from chronic periodontitis and control group of periodontally healthy individuals. The activities of antioxidant enzymes were determined and correlated to the microbiological markers recovered from subgingival plaque samples.

ResultsThere was significant increase in the total viable counts of P. gingivalis, and F. nucleatum from chronic periodontitis patients than control subjects. The results correlated positively with periodontal disease status assessed with criteria of Plaque Index (PlI), Gingival Index (GI), Probing Depth (PD) as well as Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL). The activity levels of SOD, CAT, and GPx in GCF and inflamed GT from patients with chronic periodontitis showed significantly lower values compared to control subjects and correlated negatively with

PlI, GI, PD as well as CAL. The activities of antioxidant enzymes in GCF and GT from chronic periodontitis patients were negatively correlated with total viable count of P. gingivalis and F. nucleatum.

ConclusionThe decreased activities of antioxidant enzymes in the GCF and GT from chronic periodontitis patients can participate directly and indirectly in tissue destruction that coincident to periodontal disease and, probably, may have an implication in treatment modalities of periodontal disease. These findings may provide opportunities to develop a novel antioxidant therapy that function not only as antioxidants in the traditional sense but also act as ant-inflammatory agent.

FOXP3 as biological indicator of tumor progression in oral squamous cell carcinoma


Purpose: In patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), compromised antitumor functions of T lymphocytes have been observed. Recent studies showed that immunological tumor control is mediated by different subsets of suppressor/regulatory T cells (Tregs) with distinct immunophenotype. These subsets of T cells play a major role in tumor escape from immunosurveillance. FOXP3 has been proposed to act as the master regulator of Tregs by controlling the gene expression profile that determines their regulatory phenotype. This study was designed to quantify the presence of FOXP3+ Tregs in different grades of oral squamous cell carcinoma, and also in relation to the intensity of the tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. This protocol may serve to assess the immunosurveillance status of the host which makes possible prediction of the biological behavior and progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: 34 paraffin-embedded blocks of patients with histologically proven primary OSCC were retrieved from the archived stocks. Tumor sections were immunostained for “Treg” phenotype using FOXP3 antibody (236A/E7clone, Abcam, dilution 1:40).Positive control included sections of human tonsils and negative control by deleting the primary antibody. Images of the FOXP3 immunostained sections were obtained with an Olympus System. Images were processed and analyzed utilizing image analysis (Image, version 1.43g). Data analysis was performed using SPSS package (13.0). Results: Well differentiated OSCC›s showed a significantly low expression of FOXP3 in comparison to moderately differentiated (P=.037) and poorly differentiated tumors (P=.014). FOXP3 expression profile recorded a peak in cases where there were marked tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (Pâ‰¤ .01). In cases of moderate and mild infiltration of lymphocytes, the changes noticed were not significant between them (P=.855). Correlation of the three main variables (FOXP3+ Tregs, tumor grade and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes) showed a significant positive correlation between the number of FOXP3+ Tregs and the tumor grade (r= .531, P=.001), as

well as with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (r=.628, P=.000). Conclusions: FOXP3 are up-regulated in tumors that are poorly differentiated and also in those with marked inflammatory cell infiltration. This is considered to be a part of an overall immune suppression, thereby causing tumor progression and poor prognosis.

Bruxism: Etiopathogenesis for Dental Students in Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy

Samia M. El-Azab*, Shereen M. Shoukry**, Mohamed E. Elewa*** and Hanan Hakem****


Bruxism has been defined as the habitual nonfunctional forceful contact between occlusal tooth surfaces with involuntary rhythmic or spasmodic gnashing, grinding or clenching of teeth. Its etiology is still controversial but the multifactorial cause has been attributed, including pathophysiologic, psychologic and morphologic factors. Based on the feedback extracted from the questionnaire distributed to the dental students in RCSDP regarding suffering from bruxism, it was found that its prevalence in about one third of them (166 out of 515 students) who are bruxers with different degrees of severity. Accordingly, it was mandatory to search for prevalence and miscellaneous etiological factors in Saudi Arabia population that may lead to bruxism phenomenon as analyzed from the questionnaireâ€™s data and to compare them with the formerly reviewed in literatures. Furthermore, relate these etiological factors to the possible pathogenesis of bruxism, hoping to find new strategies to mange this condition. The results revealed that stress is the main etiological factor associated with bruxism particularly for the higher level students and the oxidative stress in the para-oral tissues could be the mechanisms reside behind this phenomenon. Other contributing factors that aggravate bruxism included TMJ disorders which were assessed using digital radiographs revealing some anatomical abnormalities. Based on the data analyzed from the questionnaire together with reviewing of literatures it was concluded that relief of stress is imperative for management of bruxism. Moreover, it is recommended to increase the extra curricula activities for the students that could help them to liberate their stress.

14:00 – 14:30

Background: Phonophoresis (or sonophoresis) is defined as the migration of drug molecules contained in a coupling agent through the skin for local or systemic treatment under the influence of ultrasound waves.

Objectives: Histological and bioavailability evaluation of phonophoretically driven diclofenac (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) used as an effective non-invasive treatment of traumatic arthritis of the tempromandibular joint (TMJ).Methods: White New Zealand rabbits were used in the study. The rabbits were divided into control-non-traumatized, untreated-traumatized and treated-traumatized groups. The treated-traumatized group was subdivided into 6 groups namely, the drug treated pressure side (DTPS), the drug treated tension side (DTTS), the ultrasound treated pressure side (UTPS), the ultrasound treated tension side (UTTS), the phonophoresis treated pressure side (Ph.TPS) and the phonophoresis treated tension side (Ph.TTS). On the last day of drug application, without or with ultrasound, diclofenac concentration (bioavailability) was estimated in the animal blood at different time intervals. Histological examination for the pressure and tension TMJ of each rabbit was performed using three different histological stains.

Results: The bioavailability results in terms of Tmax, Cmax and the AUC 012-h revealed that phonophoresis has produced the highest drug bioavailability (P < 0.01) compared with those obtained from drug applied without the ultrasound. Histopathological results also revealed that Phonophoritically driven diclofenac produced the highest rate of the TMJ cure showed by the signs of regeneration in the traumatized joints compared with the drug treated and the ultrasound treated groups.

Stress Analysis in Teeth Restored With Endodontic Posts: A Finite Element Study

*Mohammad Rayyan, **Mahmoud Al-Omairi, ***Osama Abu-Hammad


Many In vivo and in vitro investigations have revealed strong relationship between post placement and reduced fracture resistance of restored teeth. Many have attributed the increased incidence of root fracture to the stress concentration within radicular dentin as a result of post placement. The present study aimed at investigating the effect of post placement on stress distribution within the dentin of teeth restored with posts in order to determine the areas of stress concentration and predict fracture resistance of post restored teeth. It also aimed at investigating the effect of load direction, coronal and apical post extensions, ferrule effect, post and core material, post diameter, post shape, and level of bone support on stress distribution within the dentin of post restored teeth.

Materials and method: The finite element method was utilized for this investigation. An axisymmetric three dimensional finite element model describing a maxillary second premolar restored with a 1 mm ferruled porcelain crown supported by a parallel sided titanium post and a composite resin core was constructed. The tooth was embedded within a modelled piece of maxillary bone. Another twenty models were constructed by modifying the basic model according to the variable investigated. Static vertical and horizontal loads of 100 N were applied to the cusp tip of the crown in all models, and Von Mises and tensile stresses were recorded.

Results: The results of this study revealed that horizontal loading generated higher levels of stress than vertical loading. Stress concentration at the outer dentin was evident in all models at the level of crestal bone. Stress concentration at this area was not altered in any model except when the level of alveolar bone was reduced, and consequently caused an increase in stress concentration. The results also demonstrated that post placement was associated with significantly higher stresses at the post-dentin interface. Higher values of intra-canal stresses have associated longer, stiffer, and

Abstract No. 36

80

wider posts. Moreover, the lower the level of the bone support the higher the values of intra-canal stresses.Conclusion: It was concluded that endodontic posts did not reinforce restored teeth but resulted in higher dentinal stresses and thus lower tooth fracture resistance. Level of alveolar bone support for the root was the main factor that affected the values of dentinal stress in all root regions. Reduction of alveolar bone to provide supra-crestal tooth structure for ferrule preparation was not justifiable in all cases since this would decrease the fracture resistance of the root. It was also concluded that modulus of elasticity of the post was the main post feature that affected intra-canal stress concentration.

The Role of Aesthetic Anterior Restorations in the Growth and Development of Children


Anterior aesthetic restorations in pediatric dentistry are often avoided due to the high cost and perception of inefficacy by parents and sometimes even the dentist. While aesthetics plays an important role in the psychological development of the child, it also plays an important role in the physical development of the child.

Anterior aesthetic restorations may greatly help in the development of speech and phonetics, serve as a guard against the development of parafunctional oral habits, improve the social interaction of the child and guide the proper development of occlusion. This paper reviews the literature and presents selected cases of the influence of anterior aesthetic restorations on the physical, verbal and psychological development of children.

The Myths and Reality about Ceramic Implant AbutmentsConference Hall-B

16:20 – 16:40

Manufacturers offer a wide range of prosthodontic rehabilitations over dental implants. Different materials have been used for dental implant abutments. They can be made from metals, ceramics, or glass fiber reinforced composites. Titanium has been considered traditionally as the material of choice for implant abutments because of its well-documented biocompatibility and mechanical properties. The development of implant supported all ceramic restorations using ceramic abutments represents a significant advance in implant prosthodontics. These abutments have many advantages over conventional titanium abutments, notably enhanced aesthetics .However; manufacturers claim many attributes to these abutments in terms of favorable bone stability and peri-implant conditions. This presentation will cover the indications and clinical rationale behind the use of ceramic implant abutments. The history of ceramic abutments, as well as the types of ceramic abutments available in the market will be discussed. The characteristics of the ceramic abutments will be analyzed and will discuss advantages and shortcomings of these ceramic abutments depending on the currently available evidence.

General Dentists and School Survey Regarding Proshtodontic Materials and Techniques


Objectives: To investigate, by questionnaire, the selection of current materials and techniques in fixed prosthodontics by dental practitioners in the West of Saudi Arabia. In addition, those methods were compared with methods and materials taught in dental schools via second survey sent to the chairpersons of prosthodontic/restorative departments. Methods: An anonymous questionnaire was mailed to 500 general dental practitioners at random from dentists listed by Saudi Council for Health Specialties in 2009. The questionnaires include material for the post fabrication, core build-up, tissue management, impression materials and techniques. Also cements, casting alloys and type of restoration were included in the study. A slightly modified questionnaire was also distributed to chairpersons of prosthodontic/restorative departments in 3 dental schools. Data analysis was performed via frequency distribution and chi-square statistics. Results: A total of 452 usable questionnaires were returned, giving a response rate of 90.4% and 3 questionnaires were returned by the dental schools (response rate 100%). When selecting a material for the core build-up of vital teeth, practitioners used: amalgam (60%), dual and light-cured resin composite (54%), glass-ionomer cements (47%), compomer (29%) and resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (24%). Where the use of a post was indicated indirect posts of both noble (67%) and base metal (37%) alloys were preferred to prefabricated posts by the majority of practitioners for the restoration of root filled teeth. Direct titanium (14%) and stainless steel (14%) posts were not used extensively. Impression materials used by the practitioners were: addition-cured silicone (70%), condensation-cured silicone (20%), polyether (9%) and polysulfide (2%). Traditional glass-ionomer cements (59%) were used for the luting of single and multiple porcelain fused to metal units, with zinc phosphate and polycarboxylate cements (33%) being the preferred alternatives. Conclusion: Overall there was an agreement on the materials and techniques used by general practitioners and dental schools.

Single-matched, taper-sized gutta-percha cone technique


The purpose of this study was to review the clinical applications of CBCT in deferent dental disciplines. A Pub-Med search was conducted from 1998 to 2010. This search revealed a total of 540 results, 135 papers were clinically relevant and were analyzed in detail. CBCT is used in deferent dental disciplines for numerous clinical applications. The result of this systemic review shows the different indications for CBCT imaging in dental practice. These indication and clinical applications were summarized and categorized under different dental disciplines.Two dimensional imaging modalities has been used in dentistry since the first intraoral radiograph obtained in 1896. A little significant advancements in dental imaging techniques have been made since then. These advanced techniques including panoramic imaging technique and tomography. Another advancement was the Digital imaging technique which had a reduced radiation dose and faster processing time but the imaging geometry has not changed with these commonly used intraoral and panoramic technologies. Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) is a new medical imaging technique of CT that generates three-dimensional (3D) data at lower cost and absorbed doses than conventional CT. this imaging technique based on a cone-shaped X-ray beam centered on a two-dimensional (2D) detector that performs one rotation around the object producing a series of 2D images. These images are reconstructed in a three-dimensional (3D) data set using a modification of the original cone-beam algorithm developed by FELDKAMP et al. in 19841. These images from the craniofacial region are often collected with a higher resolution than those collected with a conventional CT. In addition, these systems come with a smaller sizes than the conventional CT which makes it more practical in most dental offices2. Most of the attention nowadays regarding Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) imaging has focused on the clinical applications on different dental disciplines in term of diagnosis, treatment and follow ups. The purpose of this systemic review is to explore the available evidence from the clinical and scientific literature pertaining to different clinical application of Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) in dental practice.

Purpose: This study evaluated the effect of a resin-based and two different eugenol-based root canal sealers on the bond strength of prefabricated fiber posts luted with three different resin cements.

Materials and Methods: One hundred and thirty five prefabricated Fiberposts luted into extracted single-rooted teeth with three composite resin cements. Specimens were randomly divided into 3 groups of 45 each. Two of the groups were then obturated with gutta percha and one of two eugenol-based root canal sealers- Endofil, and Tubli-seal, respectively. The third group was obturated with resin-based root canal sealer (AH26). The forces required for dislodgment of posts from their prepared post spaces were recorded using a universal testing machine. Data were statistically analyzed using two- and one-way ANOVA tests.

Results: Endofil and Tubli-seal (eugenol-based sealers) groups had significantly reduced bond strength than AH26 group (P=0.000). There was no significant difference between the means of post bond stregth of Endofil and Tubli-seal groups (P= 0.334). There was significant difference between the means of post bond strength of all the three cement groups (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Endofil and Tubli-seal (eugenol-based) sealers significantly reduced the bond strength of prefabricated Fiberposts luted with resin cement.

The Effect of Sorbitol Chewing Gum on Salivary pH of Saudi Elementary School Girls


The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Sorbitol on saliva pH value in schoolchildren following food intake. Saliva pH was measured in a total of 60 subjects (7 â€“ 8 years old) who were randomly divided into two equal groups™ control and test groups( 30 on each group). The test group was asked to chew two pieces of Sorbitol gum after taking their snacks for 30 min. Saliva was collected from each group in a five min interval for 30 min. The effect of Sorbitol was assessed using pH meter. The results showed that the mean pH for both groups decrease after they snacks. For control group, the pH decreased from 7.09 to 6.5, test group from 7 to 6.9. After 5 minutes the saliva pH for control and test group was, 6.58 Â± 0.68 and 6.9 Â± 0.68 respectively (P=0.007). The results suggested that soribitol is beneficial in reducing the acidogencity of the saliva which in turn will help in reducing the caries incidence risk in Saudi schoolchildren.

Sorbitol is a sugar substitute referred as a nutritive sweetener because it provides dietary energy: 2.6 kilocalories per gram versus the average 4 kilocalories for carbohydrates. 1, 2 It is often used in diet foods (including diet drinks and ice cream), mints, cough syrups, mouthwash, toothpaste, and sugar-free chewing gum. 1, 2 Sorbitol, also known as glucitol, was discovered by a French chemist in the berries of the mountain ash in 1872. It occurs naturally in a wide variety of fruits and berries. Today it is commercially produced by the hydrogenation of glucose and is available in both liquid and crystalline forms. 1 Sorbitol has been affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is approved for use by the European Union and numerous countries around the world, including Australia, Canada and Japan. Polyols, including sorbitol, are resistant to metabolism by oral bacteria (Streptococcus mutans & lactobacilli) which break down sugars and starches to release acids that may lead to cavities or erode tooth enamel. 1 They are, therefore, non-cariogenic. The usefulness of œpolyols including sorbitol, as alternatives to sugars and as part of a comprehensive program including proper dental hygiene has been recognized by the American Dental Association. The FDA has approved the use of the statement «does not promote tooth


90

decay» as a health claim in labeling for sugar-free foods that contain sorbitol or other polyols. 1 There are other factors that can also help to maintain a healthy oral cavity including normal salivary flow rate, buffering capacity, antimicrobial mouth rinses, microorganism aggregation and clearance from the oral cavity, all interact to inhibit or reverse demineralization of exposed tooth surfaces. Cariogenic bacteria levels within the saliva and plaque determine whether caries will occur or not, and the concentration in saliva and plaque are intimately related to the type of carbohydrate ingestion and the frequency of ingestion, as well as the oral hygiene practiced by the individual. In Saudi Arabia, epidemiological studies reported a high prevalence of dental caries among children.3, 4 These studies attributed the increase in caries to frequent carbohydrate intake along with poor oral hygiene. Restricting sugar intake among children often fails. Therefore, having non-sugary sweeteners in a form of chewing gum could be effective as caries control regime program for schoolchildren.

Dental Implant surfaces in the NanocenturyDr. M. Bachar Abou Al Shaar, Dr. Shatha Al-Fayez; Dr. Fanan Al-

Shanti, Dr. Reem Al-AttarRiyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy


Dental implants evoke a host response when implanted in the oral cavity. Its surface is conditioned to influence the interaction between implant materials and the host tissue. The quality of the dental implant depends on the surface chemical, physical, mechanical, and topographic characteristics.

Two basic types of surface can be identified as described in the dental literature and used clinically: 1) Roughened surfaces achieved by subtractive processes such as blasting with titanium oxide, and 2) Roughened surfaces achieved by additive processes such as coating with hydroxyapatite (HA), titanium plasma spray (TPS) or through ion deposition.

Our aim in this poster presentation is to discuss the modern techniques used nowadays to treat the dental implant surfaces.

The treatment effects of Invisalign orthodontic alignersConference Hall-B

11:30 – 14:00 INTRODUCTION: Invisalign is a series of clear, removable teeth aligners that both orthodontists and dentists use as an alternative to traditional metal dental braces. The most obvious advantage of the Invisalign treatment is cosmetic : the aligners are completely transparent, therefore far more difficult to detect than traditional wire and bracket braces. Computerized treatment planning is compulsory as part of the Invisalign protocol. As with other forms of orthodontic treatments that incorporate a computerized plan, this allows the prospective patient to review the projected smile design, learn how long the treatment is likely to take, compare different plans, and make a more educated decision about whether or not to use Invisalign.OBJECTIVE: To determine the treatment effects of the Invisalign orthodontic system (Align Technology) .METHODS: Several electronic databases (Articles , PubMed , and Web of Sciences, review of the literature) were conducted and searched to collect information about invisalign treatment and its effects on teeth alignment & movement, malocclusions, esthetic , periodontal condition, cytotoxic and estrogenic properties of Invisalign appliances.RESULTS: According to the studies a few have assessed the effectiveness of the Invisalign appliance specifically, esthetic results with significant oral hygiene benefits. Periodontal health is not jeopardized, even though the Invisalign system aligners cover all the teeth and the keratinized gingiva in part. This could be attributed to the fact that aligners are removable and thus allow unimpeded oral hygiene.Some studies show that patients treated with Invisalign relapsed more than those treated with conventional fixed appliances and did not treat malocclusions as well as braces, invisalign was especially deficient in its ability to correct large anteroposterior discrepancies and occlusal contacts. The strengths of Invisalign were its ability to close spaces and correct anterior rotations and marginal ridge heights.There was no evidence of cytotoxicity on human gingival fibroblasts and the use of Invisalign appliances did not seem to induce estrogenic effects.


96

CONCLUSIONS:Studies have outlined limitations associated with Invisalign Align Technology that clinicians should recognize early before choosing treatment options. A better understanding of the Invisalign system might help the clinician select suitable patients for treatment, guide the proper sequencing of movement, and reduce the need for case refinement.

11:30 – 14:00 The aim of the study was to evaluate the knowledge of general practitioner dentists (GP) about the kinds and applications of composites resin and bonding agents they use in their dental clinics. One hundred questionnaires were delivered randomly to one hundred GP from different private dental clinics. Data was analyzed using the chi-square tests. The results showed that composite resin was the most common restorative material used by dentists (90.8 %). The rationale of using composite resin restoration was esthetics (90.8 %). The brand name of composite materials was not an important issue (94.7%). The majority of GPs never used rubber dam during the application of composite resin (95%). Conclusions: Composite resin was the most common restorative materials used. Rubber dam was rarely used by clinicians during composite resin restoration.

Knowledge and Attitude of Dental Patients towards cross-infection control measures in Riyadh College of Dentistry and

Pharmacy Dr. Ghousia Sayeed*, Dr. Mohammed Abdul Baseer**,

Dr. Sharat Pani***Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy


Introduction: Dental practice has undergone marked change since the introduction of HIV/AIDS to the world at the beginning of the last decade. Heightened awareness of cross-infection risks among dental practitioners has meant that barrier procedures (gloves, masks, eye protection) and the use of autoclaves are now enhanced commonplace in the dental surgery. It is probable that public expectations are changing for cross-infection control measures taken in dentistry especially in a private College like Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy. This study aimed to clarify those issues and provide data on public perceptions of cross-infection control practice in private dental college.

Objectives: (1) To assess the knowledge and attitude of patients towards cross infection control measures taken in Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy. (2) To determine the factors influencing knowledge and attitude of dental patients and attendees towards cross infection control measures taken in Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy.

Materials and methods: A convenience sampling method was employed to select 300 dental patients and attendees visiting Riyadh Colleges Dental Clinics. A structured, self administered questionnaire was distributed and responses were collected. Descriptive statistical procedures were used for analysis of the data.

Results and conclusions: Will be presented.

Self Perceived Dental Health Attitude and Behavior of Dental students of Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy



11:30 -14:00

Introduction: Dental students are generally motivated to maintain good oral health. Researchers have found that the oral health attitude and behavior of dental students during the preclinical years compared to the clinical years. In addition, oral health attitude and behavior of dental students were found to vary among countries and cultures. Dental health is a highly individualized concept, the perception of which is highly affected by individual’s culture and socio economical status. Although there is a lot of published data related to the motivation of patients to follow an effective oral care program, few studies have dealt with the attitude and behavior of the dental students in motivating patients. Moreover little is known about the influence of clinical training and course content on the development of the oral health behavior of dental students. Cross cultural comparison is also essential, as differences may exist regarding socioeconomic status, dental delivery system, and attitude towards dental health. There is no universally accepted or recommended index or inventory to measure dental health attitude and behavior

Objectives: (1) To use the Hiroshima university dental behavioral inventory (HU-DBI) to explore the dental health attitudes and behavior dental students (RCsDP) based on dental education, age and gender.

Materials and methods: A convenience sampling method was employed to select all students studying dentistry in RCsDP. The HU-DBI translated in Arabic and administered to dental students of RCSDP and responses were collected. Descriptive statistical of the data was done.

Knowledge and Attitude of School Teachers Towards Prevention of Oral Diseases in Riyadh City, KSA



11:30 – 14:00

Introduction: School teachers can play a major role in oral health education programs at school levels. Schools have a significant capacity to be supportive of programs involving preventive health and preventive dentistry for children. It was found that teachers traditionally have educated children regarding oral health and often participated in school based prevention program. They are deliverers of dental health education and have many advantages over the dental profession. Firstly, they are able to instruct all children rather than only those seeking dental care. Secondly, they have daily influence on children at a time when the children are developing their value system, thirdly the close relationship built in classrooms allows teachers to individualize information to suit each child, and finally, teachers appear more skilled in educational psychology than dentists. It has been reported that the college teachers were often deficient in oral health information, inadequate and even incorrect information’s was delivered. In a study of teacher’s knowledge of preventive dentistry, it was concluded that elementary school teachers were ill-informed regarding the details of preventive dentistry hence present study is undertaken.

Objectives: (1) To evaluate the oral health knowledge and attitudes of elementary and high school teacher’s in Riyadh city, (2) Identify teacher’s sources of oral health information, Materials and methods: A convenience sampling method was used to select 450 school teachers in Riyadh city. A structured, self administered questionnaire was distributed and responses were collected. Descriptive statistical of the data was carried out.

Dr. Ghousia Sayeed*, Rana Al Dahami, Mona Al Yaseen, Hadeel Al Amri


11:30 – 14:00

Introduction: The rapid development in computer technology and the wide availability of personal computers together with the Internet, email, and various medical literature retrieval applications have changed both the study and the practice environments in dentistry. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the current knowledge, skills, and opinions of students of the Riyadh College of Dentistry and Pharmacy with respect to information communication technology (ICT). Materials and methods: Undergraduate dental students, Level 5 to 9 and dental hygiene student, Level 5 to 8, were asked to complete a questionnaire. Data collection took place at the end of the second semester of academic year 200708-. The data was processed and analyzed by means of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS PC Version 15.0). Results and conclusion: An overall response rate of 81.8 percent (226 out of 276) was obtained. Out of 226 respondents, 50.4 percent (114) were males and 49.5 percent (112) females. Besides having free and unlimited access to computers at the college, 83.1 percent of the students had access to computers at home also and 93.3 percent owned their own laptop. Majority of the students (63.7 percent) gained their knowledge about computers from personal study and experience.Students reported that their primary academic uses of the computer were by PowerPoint programs (61.06 percent) and access to Internet (19.47 percent). About 82 percent of the students said they had no problems for using the Internet. Out of the other 18 percent who perceived barriers to use of the internet felt it was time consuming using the internet especially when line is busy and were concerned about viruses. Approximately 57 percent felt information on the Internet was accurate information while the rest 43 percent were less confident about the accuracy.


103

The majority of students (85 percent) preferred lectures to be available on the college website. Out of them three fourths of students (86 percent) did not expect that this would influence their attendance at lectures. Approximately three fourths (76%) of the students preferred paper type exam compared to online although 60 % of the students had experience taking online exam.

Google was the most commonly used search engine (60 percent), and only few students (10%) accessed pub med or other dental sites for academic purposes.

It can thus be concluded that students of Riyadh College had adequate access to substantial IT resources and demonstrated excellent attitudes towards the computer and Internet technology. However, the educational use of ICT among these students has great scope for improvement.

New DENTSPLY technologies: SDR™ and Chemfil® Rock

Conference Hall-C09:00 – 11:00

SDR stands for ‹Smart Dentin Replacement› and is the most recent DENTSPLY composite. SDR has the capacity to accelerate and simplify the restorative treatment process significantly: while conventional composites require layering and light-curing of each individual increment, SDR is indicated for the restoration of dentin cores of Class I and II defects in bulk-fill technique. Moreover, due to its flowable consistency, SDR is capable of self-adapting to the cavity geometry without condensation. This treatment approach is made possible because shrinkage stress occuring with SDR is about 50% reduced compared to what is measured for conventional flowable composites. While other materials with reduced volumetric shrinkage employ entirely new resin chemistry, SDR is still based on established methacrylate resins and therfore fully compatible with any conventional composite or bonding agent. Therefore the restoration›s final enamel layer can be placed with the dentist›s composite of joice.

ChemFil Rock is DENTSPLY›s latest Glass Ionomer restorative. Its technology is based on so called zinc-modified reactive filler, which leads to significantly improved wear and fracture resistance both initially (right after placement) and after complete set. Because early micro cracks represent weak spots in regards to the clinical longevity of Glass Ionomers, their prevention is key for a restoration›s long-term success. At this stage, chewing simulations indicate a clinical longevity of ChemFil Rock in the range of two years.

Subsequent to the lecture, participants will have the opportunity to experience the application procedure and handling characteristics of both SDR and ChemFil Rock on cavity models.

Modern Caries Diagnosis, Modern Preparation Techniques & Therapy


The onset of caries is characterised by only microscopically visible sur¬face demineralisation on dental hard tissues. Changes of diet and/or oral hygiene habits in combination with optimal fluoridation may stop the progression of a lesion and even allow its remineralisation. The aim of modern dentistry must be a preventive approach rather than invasive repair of the disease. This is only possible if the remaining structural organisation of the attacked tissue will still allow ‹restitutio ad integrum› providing early de¬tection and respective preventive measures. Some of today›s diagnostic tools are not sensitive enough to detect this early onset of destruction. Therefore, oftentimes demineralisation or stabilisation is not possible any more at the time of detection and restoration is inevitable. This, in turn, is the start of the vicious cycle of restorative therapy due to the limited life expectancy of all restorative materials.

The purpose of this contribution is to compare today›s customary methods used by dental practitioners for the detection of caries with some newer approaches.

When a restoration is inevitable, modern preparation techniques have to be used. Oscillating files, lasers and burs for minimally invasive preparations are some means dentists should be familiar with in order to be prepared for the future. Above all, these techniques should prevent the adjacent tooth from being damaged.

In the third part of this course, treated cases using composites, ceramic (including CAD/CAM) are presented and discussed.

We view precision not only in terms of manufacturing, but also in whole surgical procedure as an integrated system. Hence to develop the function more precisely, we share expertise opinion. All instruments are hand-crafted and minor deviation in size and weight may occur which does not affect the function and reliability of an instrument.

Quality StandardizationWhatever your demands are, all instruments are precisely and clearly recorded to your stated and implied requirements. Our Quality Assurance Department has developed and documented standard operating procedures, standing work instructions, quality plans, and standard device master records. Our Research and Development (R&D) department is busy in designing the instruments as per the requirements of market and quality assurance standards; all specification measurements and other data is registered in log books for Quality Assurance and other Quality systems.

Acknowledged ExpertiseQuality is not an accident; it is achieved as a result of continuous efforts, new inputs to system and human resources. Quality requires a solid foundation through expertise of the people who work for us. That’s why we put emphasis in production and training.
