Clinical outcomes of the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) in fixed dental prostheses: A systematic review. J Prosthet Dent 2024; 132:502-508. [PMID: 36192194 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2022.07.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2021] [Revised: 07/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The biologically oriented preparation technique is a concept with a vertical tooth preparation, gingitage, an immediate interim restoration preserving the clot, and a specific laboratory technique aiming to adapt the marginal periodontal tissue to a remodeled emergence profile of the crown. However, the published scientific evidence on this subject is limited. PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze whether using the biologically oriented preparation technique leads to improved clinical outcomes in terms of probing depth, gingival inflammation index, gingival marginal stability, and fewer mechanical and biological complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS Recommendations from the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used in this systematic review. An electronic search of the MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, Science Direct, Wiley Online Library, Cochrane, and ProQuest databases was made for articles published between March 2010 and July 2021 using keywords. Three reviewers selected and analyzed all articles that mentioned the biologically oriented preparation technique and met the inclusion criteria. RESULTS A total of 6 articles met the inclusion criteria: 1 prospective randomized clinical study, 1 randomized clinical study, 1 prospective clinical study, and 3 case series. According to these studies, of all the teeth treated with the biologically oriented preparation technique, probing depth (greater than 3 mm) increased in only 2.3%, gingival inflammation was present in 22.8%, gingival recession occurred in 1.7% (decreased gingival stability), and mechanical and biological failures occurred in 4.4% of the teeth. CONCLUSIONS Fixed dental prosthesis treatments performed following the concept of the biologically oriented preparation technique did not increase probing depth and showed a moderate rate of gingival inflammation, lower recession rates, and lower mechanical and biological failures at the 5-year follow-up. The biologically oriented preparation technique appears to be a viable alternative technique for obtaining satisfactory and stable clinical results up to 5 years. Long-term randomized clinical trials are recommended to reach more conclusions about this protocol.

Clinical evaluation of posterior zirconia-based and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns with a vertical preparation technique: an up to 5-year retrospective cohort study. J Dent 2024; 148:104953. [PMID: 38554803 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.104953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical conditions of single-unit posterior restorations on teeth prepared without finishing line, after 5.6 years of clinical service. MATERIALS AND METHODS 50 crowns (25 zirconia-based (Zr) and 25 porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM)) were selected from 34 patients. The restorations were evaluated according to the California Dental Association (CDA) Quality Criteria, and periodontal variables were studied in the abutment teeth compared with the unrestored contralateral teeth. Variables were examined using Mann-Whitney and Pearson´s Chi-Square tests (α = 0.05). The success of the prosthesis was calculated using Kaplan-Meier test. RESULTS CDA Quality Criteria was considered satisfactory-excellent in all restorations except for one of them, due to chipping on a PFM crown. At, 66 months, the success rates for PFM and Zr crowns were 85.7 % and 100 %, respectively. The plaque index (PI) showed that the restored abutment teeth accumulated significantly less plaque than the control teeth, but the gingival index (GI) was statistically higher in the abutment teeth. In 80 % of cases the probing depth (PB) was ≤3 mm. In addition, in 21 % of the cases, gingival recession was less than 2 mm. The restoration material had a statistically significant effect on GI and PB, with Zr crowns showing less inflammation and less deep pockets than PFM restorations. On the contrary, greater gingival recession was found at the margins of the Zr crowns when compared to the PFM. No statistical differences were found between the two materials in the GI. CONCLUSIONS Cemented crowns on vertical preparations show good clinical behavior after 5 years. The periodontal parameters (PI, GI, PD) of the Zr restorations are significantly better than those of PFM, with the exception of gingival recession. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of restorations on vertically prepared teeth is a suitable alternative to classical horizontal preparations.

Abstract
Tooth isolation is essential to isolate a prepared tooth from saliva, oral humidity, and gingival fluids and facilitate the removal of excess subgingival cement in adhesive cementation procedures. However, the isolation of prepared teeth can be challenging, especially with vertical preparations. A technique for achieving relative isolation by using polytetrafluoroethylene tape is described for adhesive cementation with vertical tooth preparations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of zirconia crowns fabricated using stereolithography (SLA) and digital light processing (DLP) and to compare their accuracy with those fabricated using the subtractive manufacturing (SM) method. METHODS A typodont model with a prepared maxillary first molar was scanned, and the anatomical contour crown was designed using dental computer-aided-design (CAD) software. The designed file in standard tessellation language (STL) format was used to fabricate 10 crowns per group. The crowns were manufactured using a dental milling machine (Datron D5; MLC group), SLA (CERAMAKER 900; SLAC group), and DLP (ZIPRO; DLPC group) printers. The fabricated crowns were scanned using a dental laboratory scanner and saved in three parts: the external, intaglio, and marginal surfaces. For accuracy assessment, these parts were superimposed to the reference file. Root mean square (RMS) values were evaluated using three-dimensional analysis software (Geomagic Control X). Statistical significance was evaluated using a nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test (α = 0.05) and a post-hoc Mann-Whitney U test with Bonferroni correction (α = 0.016). RESULTS Trueness evaluation revealed the lowest RMS value in all areas in the MLC group, followed by that in the DLPC group. The precision evaluation revealed the lowest RMS value in all areas in the MLC group. Statistically significant differences were observed among the groups in the external, intaglio, and marginal surface (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Although the restorations fabricated using SM revealed higher accuracy, the crowns manufactured using SLA and DLP methods were considered clinically acceptable. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE In the production of zirconia crowns, subtractive manufacturing continues to demonstrate significantly higher accuracy compared to additive manufacturing. However, crowns fabricated using the additive manufacturing method also demonstrated high accuracy.

Abstract
Purpose This systematic review is aimed to evaluate in fixed prosthodontics treated teeth, the effect of the BOPT on periodontal health compared to the horizontal preparation technique using a chamfer finishing line or to the baseline. Methods The electronic databases Cochrane Central Library, PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect were searched based on specific MeSH keywords. The Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) and prospective clinical trials on BOPT printed in English up to July 2022 were selected. Screening, selection, and data extraction were done. The studies were assessed for risk of bias, and descriptive and meta-analyses were performed. Results Eight studies were included in the systematic review and only three RCTs were involved in the meta-analysis. Two RCTs were assessed as low risk while one has some concerns. were grouped as good, fair, and poor based on NOS. Three of the prospective studies were considered to be of good quality and one study was fair. The meta-analysis revealed no statistically significant difference in the effect of BOPT and chamfer preparation on periodontal health status and success rate (P > 0.05). Conclusions Considering the limitation of this review, the BOPT is comparable to chamfer preparation and it resulted in an acceptable effect to maintain periodontal health with a high success rate. However, more evidence is required to support these findings.

A 32-month evaluation of lithium disilicate cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses to replace a missing maxillary incisor. J Prosthet Dent 2023:S0022-3913(23)00545-0. [PMID: 37718177 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.07.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The absence of a tooth in the esthetic zone can cause emotional and social distress. The use of minimally invasive and visually pleasing lithium disilicate resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) may be a suitable option for replacing a missing maxillary incisor. However, the available literature on lithium disilicate cantilever RBFDPs is limited. PURPOSE This retrospective multicenter study assessed the survival and success rates of lithium disilicate anterior cantilever RBFDPs with an average follow-up period of 3 years up to 9 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS RBFDPs delivered by 3 operators were clinically assessed for survival using a modified United States Public Health Service criteria list. The incidence density was determined for each criterion and operator. The standard error and 95% confidence interval were calculated for each incidence density difference (α=.05 for all analyses). RESULTS A total of 108 RBFDPs were evaluated after a mean period of 32.45 months, ranging from 14 days to 111 months. None of the restorations exhibited failure, carious lesions, or fractures during the follow-up period. The primary reasons for reduced success rates were inflammation of the surrounding soft tissues and discoloration, with incidence densities of 0.074 and 0.057 per year, respectively. Significant differences were observed among RBFDPs from different operators for criteria that included adaptation, color match, marginal adaptation, polishability, surface staining, gingival health, and antagonist wear. CONCLUSIONS Cantilever lithium disilicate RBFDPs appear to be suitable for short-term restoration. RBFDPs exhibited visible changes after short-term follow-up. However, these changes did not result in failure.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the influence of subgingival horizontal preparation technique (SHPT) and biological oriented preparation technique (BOPT) on periodontal health at a split-mouth model. Methods The sample of 100 patients was divided into two groups using a spilt-mouth study design; each patient had received two crowns with SHPT and BOPT respectively. The teeth were randomly allocated for the preparation techniques. All prepared teeth were restored with fabricated zirconium cores and ceramic layering. Temporary crowns were delivered after taking an impression and patients were recalled for the final cementation of the crowns. After that, follow-up recalls were set at one month, 3 months, 6 months, one year, and two years to record the following clinical parameters; plaque index, probing depth, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level and patients' satisfaction with treatment. Results SHPT had significantly lower plaque and inflammation index at baseline, which increased significantly at 3 months and 2 years' follow-up compared to BOPT. Patients' satisfaction was significantly higher with SHPT at baseline, and it is reduced significantly at 6 months and two years follow- up (P < 0.001). The probing depth was significantly higher in BOPT at baseline and 3 months and decreased significantly at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years' follow-up. Conclusion BOPT is a favorable technique with a full crown or veneer, presenting good marginal stability and periodontal behavior.

Abstract
The clinical outcome of every prosthetic and restorative procedure depends on the maintenance of a healthy periodontium. It is, therefore, important that the prosthodontist and restorative dentist cause no harm or permanent damage to the underlying hard and soft tissues when performing clinical procedures necessary to carry out the planned treatment. Several factors involved in these procedures have been described to have an impact on gingival health. For the present article, a selection of four of these factors are presented with the goal of evaluating the current trends and their influence on periodontal structures: (1) tooth preparation configuration and apical extension, (2) gingival tissue sulcular expansion/retraction, (3) prosthetic contours, and (4) prosthesis marginal adaptation and the consequences of excess cement remnants. Based on the available scientific evidence and clinical experience, recommendations for the practitioner are given.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate peri-implant marginal bone levels (MBLs) and soft tissue dimension changes 1 year after loading. Patients in the control group received bone-level implants, whereas in the test group, tissue-level implants with a convergent transmucosal neck were used. MATERIAL AND METHODS MBLs were calculated by measuring the distance from the implant shoulder to the first visible bone-to-implant contact using standardized periapical digital radiographs. Baseline (day of loading) and follow-up digital models obtained with an intraoral scanner were used to quantify the changes in the peri-implant soft tissue dimensions with a best-fit algorithm. RESULTS The difference between final and baseline MBLs showed a mean bone loss of 0.16 ± 0.01 mm in the test group (n = 15) and 0.45 ± 0.09 mm in the control group (n = 14) (p > 0.05). Soft tissue contour at the level of the gingival margin (GM) increased by 1.96 ± 2.69 mm in the test group and 0.65 ± 0.42 mm in the control group (p = 0.167). Both groups showed a coronal displacement of the gingival margin with no significant differences among them. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrated peri-implant hard and soft tissues stability at both implant designs with no significant differences 12 months after loading. CLINICAL RELEVANCE There is still insufficient scientific evidence to demonstrate the role and advantages of the convergent transmucosal neck on the behavior of the peri-implant soft and hard tissues stability compared to a straight neck in bone-level implants 12 months after loading.

Abstract
(1) Gingival inflammation is an ongoing challenge in tooth-supported fixed restorations, especially when the prosthetic margin does not consider the supracrestal tissues of patients. This case report aimed to present the case of a patient who was periodontally compromised due to a previous invasion of the supracrestal tissue attachment with fixed restorations and evaluate the healing response of periodontal tissues to a vertical edgeless preparation technique: bleeding upon probing (BOP), periodontal probing depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL). (2) After tooth preparation, the new restorations were adapted, this time without invading the supracrestal space of the patient, and CAD/CAM monolithic zirconia crowns were fabricated. (3) Optimal maturation of the soft tissue was observed, achieving correction of the marginal contour of periodontal tissues and improvement of periodontal indexes. (4) It can be concluded that the BOPT technique combined with a full digital workflow is a valid option for the correction and remodeling of gingival architecture.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Restorations with knife-edge margins are more prone to margin chipping during the manufacturing process. Three-dimensional gel deposition shows potential for fabricating zirconia restorations with good margin quality, but studies on its performance in fabricating knife-edged crowns are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the 3-dimensional trueness, surface morphology, and margin quality of self-glazed zirconia and soft-milled zirconia crowns with knife-edge margins. MATERIAL AND METHODS An abutment with a knife-edge finish line design was prepared and scanned with a laboratory scanner. Anatomic contour crowns were designed and fabricated by 3-dimensional gel deposition and soft milling (n=5). The crowns were digitalized, and the scan data were superimposed on the computer-aided design (CAD) data for 3-dimensional deviation analysis. Surface morphology and margin quality were characterized with microscopic examination. RESULTS The self-glazed zirconia crowns showed a smooth and glossy appearance. The soft-milled crowns showed traces left by the removal of support bars and numerous micropits of various sizes. In internal areas, no significant difference was found in root mean square values between the 2 groups (P>.05). For the external surface, self-glazed zirconia showed statistically lower root mean square values than the soft-milled crowns (P<.05). When observed at ×5 magnification, all the self-glazed zirconia crowns showed smooth edges with no defects, whereas small or large margin defects were found in the soft-milled crowns. When characterized at ×200 magnification, minor margin flaws were observed in the self-glazed zirconia crowns. More and larger margin defects were found in the soft-milled crowns. CONCLUSIONS Three-dimensional gel deposition forms a smoother and more homogeneous surface than soft milling. Knife-edged self-glazed zirconia crowns have good dimensional accuracy and margin quality.

[PMID: 36547053 PMCID: PMC9776542 DOI: 10.3390/dj10120237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
This clinical report demonstrated the use of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) for manufacturing of custom-made post and core in weakened endodontically treated central incisors. The PEEK structure was manufactured using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM). The optimal fit of this custom-made endodontic post allowed a thinner cement layer; and removed the need to manufacture a core build-up. While supplementary clinical trials and in vitro studies are needed to totally elucidate the advantages and limitations of PEEK as an option for post and core manufacturing, this case report showed that it can be promising for a predictable and simplified treatment with five years of success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prefabricated zirconia crowns for a young permanent molar is a child-friendly solution for restoring a permanent molar at a young age. This in-vitro study aimed to compare the fracture resistance of prefabricated versus custom-made permanent molar crowns. METHODS 16 identical resin dies were fabricated to receive permanent molar zirconia crowns, dies were divided into 2 groups, 1) received perfricated crowns, 2) custom-made crowns. Thermo-dynamic cycling was performed to simulate 6 months in the oral cavity, Fracture resistance of each group was assessed by applying increasing load till fracture. Data were tested for normality using Shapiro-Wilk and Levene's tests. Data were analyzed using independent t test. RESULTS No statistically significant difference was found between fracture resistance of prefabricated and custom-made crowns (1793.54 ± 423.82) and (1987.38 ± 414.88) respectively. 3 crowns of the custom-made group fractured with the underlying die, versus zero dies fractured in the prefabricated group. CONCLUSIONS Prefabricated permanent molars zirconia crowns can perform as well as custom-made crowns for an adult in terms of fracture resistance, it is suitable for children and can withstand the occlusal forces of an adult.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Large part of the tooth is required to be removed during crown preparation. A minimally invasive method for preparing single crowns is required to increase the durability of teeth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of two ceramic systems fabricated with minimally invasive vertical preparation.
Materials and methods
Forty endodontically treated maxillary premolars were prepared with vertical preparation and received temporary crowns for a period of 21 days. Twenty zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (Celtra Duo HT, Dentsply Sirona, Germany) and 20 monolithic high translucency zirconia (Katana HT, Kuarary Noritake, Japan) crowns were fabricated by CAD/CAM and cemented with dual-polymerizing luting resin. The crowns were evaluated clinically and radiographically for 36 months following modified FDI criteria. Statistical analysis was conducted with t Student test (Cochran Q).
Results
Over the follow-up period, there was no need to replace any of the study’s crowns. The overall survival rate of the 40 crowns was 100% according to the Kaplan–Meier survival method. The clinical quality of all crowns and the patient’s satisfaction were high. No caries was detected and no adverse soft tissue reactions around the crowns were observed. Periodontal probing depth was reported to be increased at mesial and distal sites more than the facial one in the 36-month follow-up with no statistically significant difference between both materials (P = 0.186).
Conclusions
Zirconia and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate could be used as a material for restoration of teeth prepared with vertical preparation technique. Both ceramic materials achieved good esthetic results, promotes healthy and stable soft tissues with no mechanical complications after 3 years of clinical evaluation.
Clinical relevance
Monolithic high translucency zirconia and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramics can be used for the restorations of minimal invasive vertical preparation in premolar area with 0.5 mm margin thickness.

Evaluation of zirconia crowns restoring endodontically treated posterior teeth with 2 finish line designs and 2 occlusal reduction schemes: A randomized clinical trial. J Prosthet Dent 2022:S0022-3913(22)00634-5. [PMID: 36396490 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2022.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Preparation design has been linked to restoration survival, and the finish line geometry, such as a deep chamfer or shoulder, has been linked to marginal integrity. However, limited data are available for restoration success with the feather-edge finish line when used with monolithic zirconia crowns with different occlusal reduction schemes. PURPOSE The purpose of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the clinical performance of 2 finish line designs (feather-edge and rounded shoulder) in relation to 2 occlusal designs (flat and planar) in endodontically treated teeth restored with monolithic zirconia crowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty-six complete-coverage monolithic zirconia crowns were provided for posterior endodontically treated teeth. The participants were divided into 3 groups based on the preparation design: the control group (PS) had a planar occlusal scheme with a rounded shoulder finish line; the first intervention group (FF) had a flat occlusal scheme with a feather-edge finish line; and the second intervention group (FS) had a flat occlusal scheme with a rounded shoulder finish line. The crowns were designed with the exocad software program and milled with a 5-axis machine. After cementation, clinical performance in terms of marginal adaptation, marginal discoloration, fracture, and secondary caries was evaluated by using the modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria. The gingival index score system was used to evaluate the gingival response. The scores were recorded immediately after cementation and at 3 subsequent follow-up visits every 3 months for 1 year. The chi-square test was used in all comparisons of outcomes and follow-up durations (α=.05). RESULTS In terms of marginal adaptations, the control group (PS) demonstrated the best marginal adaptation scores during follow-up visits, followed by intervention 2 (FS), and lastly, intervention 1 (FF), which was scored mostly with Bravo. At the third follow-up visit, the intervention 1 (FF) group reported the most gingival responses of all groups. No significant difference among the groups was found in terms of marginal discoloration, fracture, or secondary caries at any of the follow-up visits. Each group received a perfect Alfa score of 100% on all 3 follow-up assessments. CONCLUSIONS In this 1-year randomized clinical trial, all evaluated preparation schemes and corresponding crowns were clinically successful. The clinical performance of monolithic zirconia crowns of the novel preparation design (FF) was successful in terms of marginal adaption, fracture, secondary caries, and marginal discoloration.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study was to systematically review the overall outcomes of studies comparing the misfit of yttria-stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP) CAD-CAM implant-supported frameworks with frameworks fabricated with other materials and techniques. Methods: An electronic literature search of English literature was performed using Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, MEDLINE (OVID), EMBASE, and PubMed, using predetermined inclusion criteria. Specific terms were utilized in conducting a search from the inception of the respective database up to May 2022. After the search strategy was applied, the data were extracted and the results were analyzed. The focused question was: Is the misfit of the implant-supported zirconia CAD-CAM framework lower than that of non-Y-TZP implant-supported fixed restorations? Results: Eleven articles were included for qualitative assessment and critical appraisal in this review. In the included studies, Y-TZP CAD-CAM implant-supported frameworks were compared to Titanium (Ti), Ni-Cr, Co-Cr, PEEK and high-density polymer, and cast and CAD-CAM frameworks. The studies used scanning electron microscopy, one-screw tests, digital or optical microscopy, 3D virtual assessment, and replica techniques for analyzing the misfit of frameworks. Six studies showed comparable misfits among the Y-TZP CAD-CAM frameworks and the controls. Three studies showed higher misfits for the Y-TZP CAD-CAM frameworks, whereas two studies reported lower misfits for Y-TZP CAD-CAM implant frameworks compared to controls. Conclusion: Y-TZP CAD-CAM implant-supported frameworks have comparable misfits to other implant-supported frameworks. However, due to heterogeneity in the methodologies of the included studies, the overall numerical misfit of the frameworks assessed in the reviewed studies is debatable.

Fixed Prosthetic Restorations and Periodontal Health: A Narrative Review. J Funct Biomater 2022; 13:jfb13010015. [PMID: 35225978 PMCID: PMC8883934 DOI: 10.3390/jfb13010015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Periodontal health plays an important role in the longevity of prosthodontic restorations. The issues of comparative assessment of prosthetic constructions are complicated and not fully understood. The aim of this article is to review and present the current knowledge regarding the various technical, clinical, and molecular aspects of different prosthetic biomaterials and highlight the interactions between periodontal health and prosthetic restorations. Articles on periodontal health and fixed dental prostheses were searched using the keywords “zirconium”, “CAD/CAM”, “dental ceramics”, “metal–ceramics”, “margin fit”, “crown”, “fixed dental prostheses”, “periodontium”, and “margin gap” in PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. Further search criteria included being published in English, and between January 1981 and September 2021. Then, relevant articles were selected, included, and critically analyzed in this review. The margin of discrepancy results in the enhanced accumulation of dental biofilm, microleakage, hypersensitivity, margin discoloration, increased gingival crevicular fluid flow (GCF), recurrent caries, pulp infection and, lastly, periodontal lesion and bone loss, which can lead to the failure of prosthetic treatment. Before starting prosthetic treatment, the condition of the periodontal tissues should be assessed for their oral hygiene status, and gingival and periodontal conditions. Zirconium-based restorations made from computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology provide better results, in terms of marginal fit, inflammation reduction, maintenance, and the restoration of periodontal health and oral hygiene, compared to constructions made by conventional methods, and from other alloys. Compared to subgingival margins, supragingival margins offer better oral hygiene, which can be maintained and does not lead to secondary caries or periodontal disease.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM One of the most frequent complications in participants with fixed partial dentures (FPDs) is the apical migration of the gingival margin, which may be associated with factors such as fit, gingival margin location, or tooth preparation type. The prevalence of the complication in participants restored with FPDs prepared by using the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this prospective clinical trial was to evaluate the clinical and biologic outcomes of FPDs on teeth prepared by using the BOPT, over a 6-year follow-up period. MATERIAL AND METHODS Tooth-supported zirconia FPDs in the anterior region prepared by using the BOPT were evaluated. Each participant was monitored annually for 6 years by evaluating plaque index, probing depth, vestibular gingival thickness, and gingival margin stability. Biologic and/or mechanical complications were also recorded. Patient satisfaction was measured by using a visual analog scale (VAS). RESULTS A total of 25 FPDs supported by 70 teeth in 24 participants were analyzed. Low plaque index values and stable probing depths were observed, whereas the gingival index was 0 for most of the teeth. Teeth treated by using the BOPT presented significant increase in gingival thickness, and the gingival margin was found to be stable in 100% of the treatments. FPD survival was 100%. CONCLUSION Tooth supporting FPDs prepared by using the BOPT presented good periodontal health and gingival margin stability, without recession and with a 100% survival rate during a 6-year follow-up.

Abstract
Objectives. The aim of this study was to analyze the behavior of the periodontal tissues around teeth in the anterior region when restored with zirconia single crowns, using a biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT), over a 6-year follow-up. Methods. The study investigated tooth-supported single crowns in the anterior region that were fabricated with a zirconia core and feldspathic ceramic covering, in 34 patients. Follow-up analysis took place annually for 6 years, assessing periodontal responses by evaluating the following variables: plaque index (PI); probing depth (PD); gingival index (GI); gingival thickness adjacent to the restoration; and stability of the gingival margin (MS). Any (biological and mechanical) complications were also recorded, as well as the patients’ satisfaction with the treatment. Results. After 6 years’ follow-up, a low mean plaque index was obtained, probing depth was stable, and gingival thickness and margin stability had increased. Complications (biological and mechanical) did not present a statistically significant incidence and a crown survival rate of 97.2% was achieved. Patients’ satisfaction obtained a mean VAS score of 9.04 under 10. Conclusion. Teeth that are prepared with BOPT in the anterior region present good periodontal behavior around the restored teeth, particularly in terms of the stability of the gingival margin and increased gingival thickness. Single crowns prepared with BOPT obtain an excellent clinical survival rate, as well as a high score in patients’ satisfaction after 6 years.

The "Prosthetic Orthodontic Approach": An Application of the Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique Protocol. Case Rep Dent 2021; 2021:5533160.

Abstract
In this study, three cases involving patients who required multidisciplinary treatment for the aesthetic and functional rehabilitation of the maxillary or mandibular arch are described. In particular, an indication for preprosthetic orthodontic treatment, such as orthodontic extrusion, tooth realignment, correction of malocclusion, and diastemata closure, was present in all cases. Preprosthetic orthodontic treatment to resolve these issues before the restorative procedures was proposed; however, all patients refused preprosthetic orthodontic treatment. Thus, to restore aesthetics and function, solely a feather-edge prosthetic protocol has been used. The biologically oriented preparation technique was used to prepare the teeth that were moved in the established direction by preparing the abutment more on one side than the opposite. This so called “prosthetic orthodontic approach” allowed resolving clinical issues that would typically require preprosthetic orthodontic treatment, such as complete clinical crown loss, occlusal vertical dimension loss, tooth misalignment, malocclusion, tooth agenesis, and severe multiple diastemata. The degree of reciprocal movement of the prepared teeth achievable through this approach was minor and not comparable to a traditional wide-range orthodontic movement. Besides, the technique resulted in a modification of the gingival tissues and improvement of their thickness although it is unclear what effect this technique has on the gingival biotype. None of the patients had prosthetic or periodontal complications for at least 12 months following the procedure. Gingival health was excellent, and the prosthetic procedure did not affect the pulp survival of the vital teeth. The biologically oriented preparation technique used with a prosthetic orthodontic approach can effectively manage complicated cases without the need for preprosthetic orthodontics.

Abstract
An 11-year-old girl presented with agenesis of the maxillary lateral incisors. Orthodontic treatment was performed to close the midline diastema and create adequate space between the central incisors and canines to replace the missing maxillary lateral incisors on both sides. Two-piece implants were placed, and shoulderless abutments were prepared following the "biologically oriented preparation technique" (BOPT) protocol. The soft tissues were allowed to heal directly on the prosthetic emergence profile of the interim crown restorations after implant exposure. Two months later, the gingival tissue adapted to the prosthetic components in a specular manner. No complications were noted at 24 months. The BOPT protocol, originally described for natural teeth, may be applied to dental implants with shoulderless abutments.

Abstract
Two female patients positive for human immunodeficiency virus and receiving antiretroviral treatment presented with esthetic concerns due to fixed dental prostheses in the anterior region. The patients had gingival recession and short clinical crowns in the esthetic zone. In both cases, the biologically oriented preparation technique was used to recreate ideal proportions between the teeth and gingivae. Since patients with human immunodeficiency virus experience a progressive deterioration of their immune systems and other significant comorbidities, a reduction in the number of traumatic clinical procedures is recommended. The use of this minimally invasive prosthetic protocol has not been previously reported in patients with human immunodeficiency virus. These cases demonstrate how short clinical crowns and gingival recession in the esthetic zone can be successfully treated with the biologically oriented preparation technique to avoid surgical procedures in patients with human immunodeficiency virus.

Abstract
PURPOSE To search the literature and to critically evaluate the findings on the periodontal outcomes of restorations and tooth-supported fixed prostheses. MATERIALS AND METHODS PubMed was searched according to a systematic methodology, previously reported, but updated to include a larger database. Filters applied were: Case reports, clinical trial, review, guideline, randomized controlled trial, meta-analysis, systematic reviews, and English. A narrative review was then synthesized to discuss periodontal outcomes related to restorations and tooth-supported fixed prostheses. Relevant data was organized into four sections: Direct restorations, indirect restorations, biologic width or supracrestal tissue attachment and tooth preparation/finish line design. RESULTS While increased gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing depth and clinical attachment loss have been associated with subgingival restorations, intracrevicular margins do not cause periodontal diseases. Inflammation and bone loss occur, for both direct and indirect restorations, only with large overhangs. Different restorative materials are associated with different clinical responses when placed in the gingival sulcus or within the epithelial and connective tissue attachments. When the connective tissue attachment is removed, histological changes occur causing its apical shift and subsequent re-establishment. Gingival displacement during impression procedures can cause gingival recession. Emergence profile can have a range of values, not associated with periodontal diseases. Periodontal response appears to be clinically not different when compared among different finish line designs. CONCLUSIONS Contemporary procedures and materials used for the placement and fabrication of tooth-supported restorations and fixed prostheses are compatible with periodontal health when adequate patient education and motivation in self-performed oral hygiene are present. Periodontal diagnostic criteria should be thoroughly reviewed before fixed restorative treatments are planned and executed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The present clinical case describes periapical microsurgery with an endoscope and microscope in a patient already treated 25 years ago due to persistent periapical disease of the two central upper incisors, restored with poorly adapted crowns. Clinical Case. The first periapical surgery had been performed with silver amalgam as a retrograde filler material, causing grayish staining of the buccal mucosa. Periapical surgery was performed raising a submarginal flap with ostectomy and apicoectomy, retrograde cavity preparation with ultrasound tips, and filling with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). After soft tissue healing and complete bone regeneration of the lesion, retreatment of the incisors with a fixed prosthesis was carried out, adopting the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT). CONCLUSIONS The described periapical microsurgery approach with magnification and illumination of the surgical field was found to be effective, avoiding the need to extract the two central upper incisors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The infringement of supracrestal tissue attachment by subgingival restorative margins, extensive caries, and root fractures, can compromise the periodontal health, resulting in inflammation and loss of periodontal supporting tissues. This report describes a case of a root fracture on the upper left central incisor that was successfully treated using a conservative approach, by applying the restorative alveolar interface (RAI) management combined with tunnel technique and a subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). CASE PRESENTATION A 24-year-old male patient presented with a provisional single-unit fixed prosthesis on his upper left central incisor, in function for 4 years, with the chief complaint of prosthesis discoloration. After clinical and radiographic examination, a diagnosis of root fracture was established. Following the removal of the provisional prosthesis, a full-thickness flap was elevated creating a tunnel. The elimination of the fracture line/angle, root recontouring, and planning was then performed with the aid of a conical long diamond bur and periodontal curets. Additionally, an SCTG was placed buccally into the tunnel. The final zirconia layered with E-max crown was placed 6 months after surgery. At 12- and 24-month follow-up, the periodontal tissues presented healthy aspect, no bleeding on probing, and a 4-mm probing depth. CONCLUSIONS Surgical repositioning of the restorative margin can be an alternative and conservative treatment approach to compromised teeth with subgingival fracture line/angle. However, case selection should be carefully considered and restorability assessed as limitations might apply.

Abstract
Biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) is a vertical preparation technique without a finish line to create a new anatomic crown with a prosthetic emergence profile. This case report describe the protocol realized digitally in a patient who required a new fixed partial denture (FPD) in the anterior esthetic zone. After time of temporary restoration, definitive conventional (CI) (double-cord retraction and vinyl polysiloxane material), and digital impression (DI) with three different intraoral scanner (IOS) (Trios®, True Definition® and iTero®) were taken. All digital impression were obtained through three different scans: temporary restoration in the mouth after healing period, prepared teeth, and temporary restoration out of the mouth. To establish which of the IOS was the most accurate, it was necessary to compare the STL files obtained from each of the IOS with the STL file of the conventional impression, which was digitized with a laboratory scanner (3Shape D800). All these STL were imported to a software (ExoCAD 2.4 Plovdiv®), and they were superimposed. To establish the difference in trueness with SC, 6 points were chosen, 3 points in teeth, and another 3 points in soft tissue. The mean measurement in terms of trueness in teeth were: STS (0,039 mm), SI (0,054 mm), STD (0,067 mm); and in soft tissue were: STS (0,051 mm), SI (0,09 mm), STD [0,236 mm]. The IOSs showed differences between them in terms of trueness, being the Trios the most accuracy IOS. Final restoration was fabricated and cemented. The patient was examined at 3, 6 and 12 months, without any type of biological or mechanical complications. Digital impression with an IOS seems to be a viable alternative to perform zirconia FPD in the BOPT tecbique. Key words:Intraoral scanners, accuracy, vertical preparation, precision, CAD-CAM, prosthodontics.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Evidence of the behavior of the periodontal tissues around anterior teeth restored with the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) is available. However, outcomes of this technique in posterior teeth restored with fixed partial dentures (FPDs) are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the clinical, mechanical, and biological behavior of posterior 3-unit FPDs placed on teeth prepared with BOPT. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty participants received a 3-unit zirconia FPD in the posterior region of the mandible or maxilla. Twenty FPDs were placed on teeth prepared with BOPT (study group) and 20 on teeth with a horizontal chamfer finishing line (control group). Follow-up examinations were performed 1, 3, and 5 years after treatment to evaluate periodontal responses around the prepared teeth by means of the following parameters: plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, and marginal stability (MS). Mechanical behavior was also assessed, as were any complications. RESULTS After the 5-year follow-up, 57.9% of the control group and 35% of the BOPT group presented a plaque index of 1. The gingival index was 1 in 68.4% of the control group and 30% of the BOPT group after the follow-up period. In the analysis of probing depth, 26.3% of teeth in the control group had pockets of more than 3 mm in depth, whereas the BOPT group had only 10%. Marginal stability appeared in 100% of the BOPT group, whereas only 10.5% of the control group exhibited gingival stability. Complications during the follow-up period were similar, 20% in the control group and 15% in the BOPT group. CONCLUSIONS Posterior FPDs prepared by using BOPT had a good clinical response over a 5-year follow-up, with a low gingival index, a small increase in pocket depth, and a 100% marginal stability of the surrounding tissues. High survival rates after 5 years indicated that the technique produced predictable outcomes.

Influence of Angulation in Cervical Prosthetic Emergences Relative to the Gingival Tissue of Teeth Treated under the Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT). APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
Background: The objective of this study was to digitally evaluate the effect of the cervical emergence of restorations in terms of gingival tissue volume. Materials and methods: In this study, 31 upper front teeth (from canine to canine) were selected and prepared using the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT). Each tooth had undergone a change in its provisional process with different emergence profile angles: 30° and 60°. Each sample was digitalised (STL file) using an intraoral scanner. By using various pieces of manipulation software for STL files, a volumetric analysis protocol was carried out. Changes in gingival thickness and position were measured at the buccal and the lingual positions. Results: By increasing the angulation of the emergence profile to 60°, the gingival thickness increased by 0.255 ± 0.381 mm (p = 0.001; t-test) at buccal and by 0.038 ± 0.381 mm at lingual (p = 0.600; t-test). In relation to the gingival height, at buccal, there is an apical displacement of 0.262 ± 0.246 mm (p = 0.001; t-test), and at lingual, there is an apical displacement of 0.390 ± 0.279 mm (p = 0.001; t-test). It was shown that an increase in the provisional emergence profile angle significantly diminishes the gingival height while significantly increasing gingival thickness. The Pearson’s correlation coefficient, r = 0.636, was moderately high and significant (p = 0.001; Pearson). Conclusions: The soft tissue surrounding the BOPT restored tooth evolved according to the prosthetic emergence angle of the provisional restoration, enabling us to plan for an apico-coronal and bucco-lingual displacement of the gingival tissue prior to the definitive restoration.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to conduct histological analysis of a human tooth resected with the periodontal insertion apparatus intact following treatment using biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT). Material and Methods This descriptive histological dento-periodontal study used an anterior tooth extracted with the surrounding periodontal tissues intact, following prosthetic restoration with BOPT. The sample patient was recruited from among those attending the Department of Dental Medicine at the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Valencia (Spain). Eight serial sections of the restored tooth were processed. The relative location and histological characteristics of the cemented prosthetic crown, the dental tissues of the tooth prepared by BOPT technique, and the periodontal tissues were analyzed. Results Structural analysis of the neoformed junctional epithelium showed that the number of layers decrease apically until there was a single row of cells perfectly adhered to the acellular cementum, and beneath the epithelium a connective tissue evidently free from inflammation. The tissues of the neoformed periodontium (gingival ligament, sulcular epithelium, junctional epithelium) presented histologic normality. Conclusions Biologically oriented preparation technique is a reliable alternative to conventional horizontal finish lines. Key words:Vertical preparation, prosthetic cementoenamel junction (PCEJ), finish line, BOPT, crown.

Abstract
PURPOSE This article describes a digital technique used to record gingival emergence profiles modeled for the prosthetic restoration of teeth prepared using biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT). MATERIALS AND METHODS The description of the technique of intraoral recording, manipulation of digital files, and chairside protocol of prosthetic restorations is developed in the present manuscript on two anterior teeth treated with vertical and subgingival dental preparations for restoration with ceramic crowns. The manipulation of the digital files registered with an intraoral scanner with software that allows its alignment (best-fit) and the performance boolean of operation manages to create a virtual gingival emergency like the one it presents when it is adapted on the cervical part of the interim prosthesis. CONCLUSIONS The technique allows the dentist and laboratory technician to obtain a digital reproduction of the subgingival soft tissues around the prosthetic crown, unaffected by the collapse of the gingival sulcus when the provisional crown is removed, as well as an exact copy of the provisional restoration, making it possible to fabricate a definitive prosthesis that ensures precise anatomy, and so good compatibility with periodontal tissues.

Abstract
This article describes a nonsurgical approach for treating gingival recessions and increasing gingival thickness around the natural teeth. Two female patients, presenting gingival recessions at the maxillary frontal teeth, were treated. Patient #1 had a discrepancy among the central maxillary incisors' gingival margin, and tooth UL1 needed to be restored. Patient #2 presented a buccal gingival recession at tooth UL3. In both cases, the sulcular gingival margin was gently disephitelized with a diamond bur leaving the soft tissue healing by itself. After 4 weeks, the procedure was reperformed. After 6 months, the gingival margins appeared thicker and a creeping attachment was achieved in both cases, obtaining gingival symmetry, related to the adjacent or contralateral teeth, and root coverage. Gingival asymmetry, gingival recessions, and gingival thickness may be improved by means of a guided gentle nonsurgical stimulation, providing creeping attachment in the natural and also restored teeth, with a healthy and stable tissue after 24 months of follow-up.
