The maxillary anterior region is critical for esthetics and function, requiring precise analysis and restoration when damaged by trauma. This case report presents the restorative process using a digital workflow for a patient with anterior trauma. A 22-year-old female exhibited fractures and extrusive luxation of maxillary central incisors, diagnosed with pulp necrosis. After endodontic treatment, intraoral and facial scans were performed, and provisional and definitive restorations were digitally designed. Various shade-matching techniques were employed to achieve natural esthetics. The definitive prosthesis improved harmony between the incisal edge and lower lip, as well as tooth axis, length, and zenith position, fulfilling the patient’s esthetic demands. This case suggests that combining digital technology and gingivectomy with a minimally invasive approach enables esthetic and functional restoration of the maxillary anterior region.

Purpose: To evaluate the compatibility and usability of test results obtained from the IDRA and Keratograph 5M in clinical settings by comparing their performance in patients with dry eye disease. Methods: From December 27 to 30, 2022, a study was conducted on 30 patients diagnosed with dry eye utilizing both the Keratograph 5M and IDRA devices. The parameters compared and analyzed included lipid layer thickness, tear meniscus height, tear film break-up time, and meibography. A paired t-test was used for statistical comparison. The lipid layer thickness in the Keratograph 5M was graded on a scale from 0 to 4 based on thickness. Results: No significant differences were found between the two devices in tear film break-up time, tear meniscus height, and meibography (p = 0.148, 0.072, 0.124, respectively). However, the tear lipid layer thickness measured by IDRA showed a proportional relationship with the grade assigned by the Keratograph 5M (Kendall R = 0.217, p = 0.037; Spearman R = 0.260, p = 0.045). Conclusions The IDRA device offers the advantage of performing multiple dry eye tests; simultaneously, thereby saving time compared to the Keratograph 5M. Both devices can be used compatibly with IDRA particularly advantageous for providing a numerical value for tear lipid layer thickness which enhances the convenience of dry eye diagnosis and treatment.

Mesenteric injuries from blunt trauma are rare, but can result in life-threatening complications, including massive hemorrhage from mesenteric arterial disruption, bowel ischemia, necrosis, and perforation. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical, and surgical intervention is traditionally considered the gold standard intervention. Although transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) is an established treatment for solid organ injuries following blunt abdominal trauma, its application to mesenteric injuries is less common. A 47-year-old male was admitted to our trauma center, which employes a hybrid emergency room system, after falling from a height of 3 meters. Abdominal computed tomography revealed active contrast extravasation from the middle colic artery which had a large hemoperitoneum, but no evidence of bowel injury. After initial resuscitation and stabilization, TAE was performed to control the hemorrhage. The patient was discharged 42 days after admission without significant complications. As a possible treatment option for mesenteric injuries without intestinal damage, we suggest TAE.
