Abstract

The relationship between facial measurements and the size of the maxillary anterior teeth in the Malaysian population is still a point of contention. Objective: The purpose of this study was to establish a relationship between facial measurements and the mesiodistal width of the maxillary anterior teeth (MDW), which could be used to guide the selection of anterior teeth for complete denture construction. Methods: The facial and dental measurements were obtained directly from 170 Malay adults aged between 19 to 35 who had morphologically normal permanent maxillary anterior teeth from canine to canine. The facial dimensions measured were interpupillary distance (IPD), intercanthal distance (ICD) and interalar distance (IAD). The facial dimensions were measured using a digital vernier calliper while the mesiodistal width of the maxillary anterior teeth was measured with a flexible ruler. The three facial dimensions were correlated with MDW for both genders. Results:The IPD and IAD were significantly (p>0.001) larger in males (IPD: 68.30±4.24mm; IAD: 39.60±2.54mm) than in females (IPD: 65.93±3.91mm; IAD: 36.96±2.29). There was no significant correlation between any of the facial dimensions and MDW in males or females. Conclusion: For the studied population, the interpupillary, intercanthal, and interalar distances may not be used as reliable guides when determining the size of maxillary anterior teeth in complete denture construction.

Abstract

Both maxillary complete denture’s labial flange and anterior artificial teeth play important roles in re-establish major support for the upper lip of elderly patients. However, whether the labial flange can be removed and still perceived as aesthetic remain unclear. Objective: To determine the perception of young adults toward the effect of a labial flange and anterior teeth on lip support of an elderly with maxillary complete dentures. Methods: A total of 64 young adults were recruited to evaluate the lip support for facial aesthetics of 30 full-face photographs in 3 different states: with an original complete denture (CD), with a flangeless duplicated denture and without the complete denture. They were rated using a Visual Numerical Scale (VNS) of 10, with 1 being the least attractive and 10 being the most attractive and repeated twice in random order. Soft-tissue profile analysis was performed to determine which facial anatomical landmarks were most important for lip support and aesthetics. Results: The overall VNS rating with CD (6.33 ± 0.58) was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than images with flangeless (5.58 ± 1.01) or without CD (5.23 ± 1.30). The landmarks that showed the most significant changes were in the subnasale area and NLA with original CD (p=0.060, p=0.072) and in frontal lip thickness with flangeless (p=0.082). There are strong correlations between subnasale and NLA and the mean total aesthetic VNS rating of images with CD, but not statistically significant (r=0.708; p=0.118, r=-0.835; p=0.078). Conclusion: The labial flange of a maxillary complete denture plays an important role in lip support and results in the aesthetic perception of the dentures wearer. The anterior teeth alone provide fullness to the lips, but not enough for labial support.

Abstract

Background: Diverse music activities may reduce stress and enhance well-being. However, using a musical mobile health application (app) as an intervention during dental treatment has not yet been established. Hence, a self-preference musical mobile app (ACOU@PLAY) has been created for use in clinical settings. Purpose: This study aims to assess the quality of the ACOU@PLAY app as a relaxing tool for dental students and compare the results with patients’ opinions. Methods: A total of 53% (n = 38) dental students and 47% (n = 35) patients were recruited to use the self-preference musical mobile app (ACOU@PLAY) for 10 minutes and watch a 5-minute pre-recorded video. Then, an evaluation was performed using a validated tool, the modified user version Mobile App Rating Skill (uMARS), which included a demographic survey. The uMARS questionnaire consists of five domains (engagement, functionality, aesthetics, information, and app subjective quality) using a 5-point Likert scale. Results: The average quality score of the app was 3.96 ± 0.509. The app received its highest rating for the information domains, with a mean score of 4.14 ± 0.577, and its lowest for subjective quality, with a mean score of 3.63 ± 0.565. Notable differences were observed in the ratings for engagement (p = 0.008) and aesthetics (p = 0.035) between dental students and patients, as well as significant differences in ratings based on gender in the domains of engagement (p = 0.007), functionality (p = 0.018), and aesthetics (p = 0.021). Conclusion: The self-preference musical mobile app (ACOU@PLAY) is well accepted by dental students and favored by patients with adequate qualities to be used in clinical settings.

Abstract

Objective: Selecting and arranging acrylic resin teeth for dentures is essential to achieve a natural appearance; however, limited understanding and older adults’ aesthetic expectations may result in inconsistencies and increased patient visits. This study aimed to explore the methods and factors dental students prefer when selecting artificial teeth for dentures for older adults. Method: A validated questionnaire, including consent, demographics, and six domains of the methods with related factors for selecting acrylic teeth, was distributed to dental students of the Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM). The participants responded using a five-point Likert scale and closed-ended questions. Result: 161 dental students participated in the study (115 females, 71.4% and 46 males, 28.6%), divided into no-experience (n = 80, 49.7%) and experienced (n = 81, 50.3%) in treating older denture patients. Both groups preferred the visual shade selection method, with no-experience students' mean score is 3.88 ± 1.03 and experienced students' score is 4.11 ± 0.77 (p > 0.05). The digital shade selection method was the least preferred by no-experience students (2.98 ± 1.28) and experienced students (2.51 ± 1.33) (p < 0.05). The factors most influencing the selection were experience, light source, and characteristics of the tooth. Conclusions: Dental students preferred the visual shade selection method for choosing acrylic teeth in denture fabrication for older adults and were influenced by experience, light source, and natural tooth characteristics.
