Abstrakt: Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of computer-aided design (CAD)/computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) in designing and manufacturing 3D-printed dental models used to make thermoplastic removable splints for children with traumatized anterior permanent teeth.
Methods: A total of 28 patients with dental trauma (subluxation, extrusive luxation, and lateral luxation) were divided into experimental (14 patients) and control groups (14 patients). The experimental group was treated with the removable splint made using a new 3D printed dental model designed with CAD/CAM technology, while the control group received a wire-composite splint. Follow-up was performed at week 2 and 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months post-treatment, and every year after that. The traumatized teeth were evaluated according to clinical symptoms, tooth color, mobility, position, percussion pain, abnormal percussion sounds indicating ankylosis or other pathosis, swelling, fistula of gums, vitality test, and radiographic examination.
Results: No significant difference was found in gender and age between the two groups. The experimental group had 23 traumatic teeth, and the control group had 24 traumatic teeth. Traumatic teeth in the two groups most commonly involved open apex teeth (>90 %). The average follow-up time for the experimental and control group was 35.47±14.23 and 32.92±14.79 months (P > 0.05), respectively. The pulp survival rate and periodontal healing rate in the experimental group (86.96 %, 91.30 %) were higher compared to the control group (62.50 %, 75.00 %) (all P > 0.05).
Conclusion: A removable splint made by a 3D printed dental model designed with CAD/CAM technology achieved an equivalent treatment effect to a wire-composite splint.
Clinical Significance: A 3D-printed dental model designed with CAD/CAM technology can be used to fabricate removable splints, which in turn can decrease iatrogenic injuries frequently encountered during the traditional model production process. For example, taking the impression directly from the patient's mouth can cause displacement of a traumatized tooth or even exfoliation. The removable splints produced using a new 3D-printed dental model can meet clinical treatment requirements of traumatized teeth, especially for children and adolescents with occlusal trauma in mixed dentition.
