Manual quantitative analysis of facial parameters on photographs during smile and speech is a difficult and time-consuming job. Since there is no comprehensive and user-friendly software package, we developed a software program called "Smile Analyzer" in the Department of Orthodontics of Mashhad Faculty of Dentistry for measuring the parameters related to lip-tooth relationships and other facial landmarks on the photographs taken during various facial expressions. The software was designed using visual basic. NET and the ADO. NET was used for developing its Microsoft Access database. The program runs on Microsoft Windows. It is capable of analyzing many parameters or variables in many patients' photographs, although 19 more common variables are previously defined as a default list of variables. When all variables are measured or calculated, a report can be generated and saved in either PDF or MS Excel format. Data are readily transferable to statistical software like SPSS for Windows.  }, keywords = {Smile,smile analyzer,Software,Speech}, url = {https://jdmt.mums.ac.ir/article_47.html}, eprint = {https://jdmt.mums.ac.ir/article_47_a63d02613b27ec92f80b5bdcee8c413b.pdf} } @article { author = {Ganbarzadeh, Jalil and Nakhaei, Mohammad Reza and Shiezadeh, Farid and Abrisham, Seyyed Mohammad}, title = {The Effect of Abutment Surface Roughness on the Retention of Implant-Supported Crowns Cemented with Provisional Luting Cement}, journal = {Journal of Dental Materials and Techniques}, volume = {1}, number = {1}, pages = {6-10}, year = {2012}, publisher = {Mashhad University of Medical Sciences}, issn = {2322-4150}, eissn = {2252-0317}, doi = {10.22038/jdmt.2013.84}, abstract = {Introduction: Surface roughness can increase the retention of castings by ridges and grooves that are microretentive. This study compared the retention of implant-supported crowns when used with 3 different surface roughness abutments and one temporary cement. Methods: Thirty solid abutments (ITI), 4 mm high, were divided into three groups randomly. In the first group, 10 abutments were roughened with sandblast (50-µm aluminum oxide) and in the second group, 10 abutments were roughened with diamond bur. The third group had no surface treatment. Then, thirty implant fixture analogs (ITI) were placed in the center of acrylic cylinders. After that a solid abutment was tightened on the each fixture analog with 35 N/cm force. Thirty base metal crowns were made on the 4 mm ITI abutment analogs using plastic coping. The prepared copings were cemented on the abutments by TempBond temporary cement and finally, crowns were pulled from the abutment in a universal test machine at a cross speed of 0.5cm/min. Results: The mean tensile strength in sandblasted, bur treated, and control group were 64.38±8, 91.37±7.19, and 58.61±1.93, respectively. Bur treated group showed higher tensile strength in comparison with two other groups. Conclusion: Surface modification of implant abutment by diamond bur may be an effective method to increase retention of crown when TempBond is used.}, keywords = {Abutment,dental implant,Restoration,Retention,surface roughness}, url = {https://jdmt.mums.ac.ir/article_84.html}, eprint = {https://jdmt.mums.ac.ir/article_84_7a9b94b65e18e00ca389c2ca67a1d7c9.pdf} } @article { author = {Ajami, Behjat-Al-Molook and Ebrahimi, Masoumeh and Makarem, Abbas and Movahhed, Taraneh and Motamedi, Amir Reza}, title = {Evaluation of Survival Time of Tooth Color Dental Materials in Primary Anterior Teeth}, journal = {Journal of Dental Materials and Techniques}, volume = {1}, number = {1}, pages = {11-18}, year = {2012}, publisher = {Mashhad University of Medical Sciences}, issn = {2322-4150}, eissn = {2252-0317}, doi = {10.22038/jdmt.2013.87}, abstract = {Introduction: In restorative dentistry, selecting the proper material is an important factor for clinical success. The objective of this study was clinical evaluation of survival time of three tooth color materials in primary anterior teeth. Methods: In this interventional clinical trial study, 94 deciduous anterior teeth (36 teeth in boys, 58 teeth in girls) belonging to 3-5 year old children in Pediatric Department of Mashhad Faculty of Dentistry, Iran were selected. Selective dental materials included compoglass, glass-ionomer Fuji II LC, and composite resin. The data were analyzed with Kaplan–Meyer and Log rank test. Results: compoglass had the highest survival time in comparison with composite and glass-ionomer. Nine months retention rate for teeth restored with compoglass, composite resin and glass-ionomer were estimated: 95%, 21%, and 12.5%, respectively.

Methods: Seventy edentulous patients at Mashhad Faculty of Dentistry as the main group and 50 dentulous patients as the control group were selected. In these patients, transverse dimensions between second molar areas and also canine eminence from one side to another side, and longitudinal dimensions based on the distance between canine to second molar area at centric occlusion and maximum mouth opening were measured. Dimensional differences as the mandibular flexure were measured. Results: The mandibular dimensions in maximum opening and closed mouth were different. Average reduction in transverse dimension on second molar region at maximum mouth opening and closing position were almost equal to -0.0787 mm for target group and 0.7512 mm for control group. On anterior side, averages of these changes were equal to 0.3069 mm for target group and were 0.2254 mm for control group.

Methods: In order to evaluate the stress distribution of class II composite restorations using finite element method, upper right first molar and second premolar were modeled. Proximal boxes were designed and restored with universal Z250 and packable P60 composite resins (3M ESPE) using two matrix systems: flat Tofflemire matrix and precurved sectional matrix. Finally models were evaluated under loads of 200 and 400 Newton at 90 degrees angle and the results were graphically illustrated in the form of Von Misses stresses. Results: In general the stress obtained under 400 Newton load was significantly greater than the stress of models under 200 Newton load. Von Misses stress distribution pattern of two different Z250 and P60 composites were very similar in all modes of loading and proximal contour. In all analyzed models there was a significant difference between models restored with Tofflemire matrix with flat contour and models restored with sectional matrix with curved contour. This difference was greater in first molar than second premolar.
