1. 1. The peri-implant tissues from an esthetic perspective

   Författare :Moontaek Chang; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; clinical; dental implants; esthetics; single-tooth replacements; soft tissues; infra-occlusion; bone alterations;

   Sammanfattning : The overall objective of the thesis was to evaluate the dimensions and position of peri-implant soft tissues in relation to the topography and alterations of the bone support, and the tissues’ significance for an esthetic appreciation of implant therapy. A comparative evaluation of crown and soft tissue dimensions between implant-supported single-tooth replacements and the contra-lateral natural tooth was made in Study I. LÄS MER

3. 2. Pedicled and free TRAM flaps in breast reconstructions : a comparative study

   Författare :Åsa Edsander-Nord; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :breast reconstruction; TRAM; pedicled flap; free flap; microdialysis; monitoring; flap circulation; flap metabolism; glucose; lactate; glycerol; abdominal muscles; trunk muscle strength; KIN-COM; quantitative sensory testing; tactile perception threshold; thermal perception threshold; breast volume; thermoplastic; quality of life; SF-36; esthetic evaluation; applanation tonometry;

   Sammanfattning : The transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap is frequently used when autologous tissue is desired for breast reconstruction, and it can be transferred pedicled or free. The pedicled TRAM flap is elevated as a lower transverse abdominal flap with the rectus abdominis muscle attached in the epigastric area, by which means the deep superior epigastric vessels nourish the flap.

4. 3. Dental Anxiety in Adults - Psychosocial Aspects, Oral Health and Psychological Treatment

   Författare :Viktor Carlsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adults; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; cognitive behavior therapy; dental anxiety; esthetics; oral health; oral health-related quality of life; psychological health; psychological treatment;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate relationships between dental anxiety (DA), psychosocial factors, oral health and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in adults, and to assess the efficacy of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) as treatment for DA. Study I is a national Swedish survey, studies II and III are clinical cross-sectional studies on patients with severe DA, and study IV consists of a systematic review and a meta-analysis. LÄS MER

5. 4. Virtual three-dimensional analysis of digitized dental impressions and stone replicas

   Författare :Anna Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Accuracy; alignment software; computer-aided analysis; computer-aided design; computer-aided manufacturing; fixed prosthodontics; precision; reliability; reproducibility; surface digitization devices;

   Sammanfattning : In response to increasing patient awareness of esthetic dental rehabilitation, the preference today is for all-ceramic restorations, which show superior biocompatibility and similar light characteristics to the natural tooth. The fit of a dental restoration depends on quality throughout the entire manufacturing process. LÄS MER

7. 5. Gingival recession development in orthodontic patients : studies on gingival phenotype diagnostics, local and systemic biomarkers, and the impact of orthodontic treatment on gingival recession development

   Författare :Dimitrios Kloukos; Andreas Stavropoulos; Christos Katsaros; Timo Peltomäki; Malmö universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Gingival recession refers to the apical displacement of the gingival margin from the cemento-enamel junction, resulting in exposure of the root of the tooth. Recessions can be localized, involving a single surface and tooth or may involve more tooth surfaces and/or teeth. LÄS MER
