Introduction and aim: In recent decades, the whole field of medicine has been undergoing a digital revolution. This phenomenon is making its way into dental fields as well, including orthodontics, and gradually more and more workflow procedures are being digitalized. The digital models of dental arches can be obtained with the help of an intraoral scanner, and afterwards, using a 3D printer, they can be transformed into physical models. In the field of orthodontics, dental models are needed as study models for diagnostic analysis and determining the therapeutical plan. Dental models at the end of orthodontic therapy are very important as working...

Nocar A., Horáček M., Dostálová T., Trojanová J.

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2022; 122(3): 79-86 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2022.006  

Introduction and aim: The aim is to summarize the current literature regarding possible dental and skeletal changes after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). RME is one type of treatment for transverse maxillary anomalies. It is an effective orthodontic treatment procedure in mixed and permanent dentition. It is indicated in patients with transverse dental arch dysplasia. The treated patients are diagnosed with crossbite in the lateral dentition. The goal of treatment is maxillary expansion, which is possible in younger patients due to immature sutures in the maxillary region, especially the palatal suture. The maxillary expansion is mediated by a special...

DENTAL CERAMICS - MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Hynková K., Voborná I

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2022; 122(3): 87-94 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2022.007  

Introduction, aim: Ceramic is a mixture of inorganic non-metallic materials. The history of the ceramic is dated since Paleolithic age. It is used, for example for production of jewelry, dishes, the construction industry, sculpturing and of course in dentistry. Ceramic is hard, strong, thermal and electrical nonconductive and it has an aesthetic appearance. Due to increasing patient's demands for beautiful and natural smile, the ceramic is a good choice for this aesthetics work. The ceramic mimics very well the optical features of hard dental tissues such as enamel and dentin. Therefore, ceramic becomes a material, which is used every day in dental...
