Thermoplastic Resins: A Novel Approach to Removable Partial Dentures
Abstract: Behind all complexities in the world stand simple solutions. In the present era of fixed prosthetic dentistry cast partial dentures are still being used owing to the anatomical and biomechanical constraints in the oral cavity. The difficulties encountered by patients with cast partial denture are an age old saga. The common problems are unaesthetic appearance of the clasp, rigidity of denture base resin, unavoidable tooth preparation, weight of the prosthesis, …

Improvement of mechanical properties for PMMA based Denture material
Abstract: Denture material properties can be improved by various fiber addition. The most often used denture materials are polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resins; nevertheless, they do not have a high flexural strength (FS). This investigation compared the mechanical characteristics of an injection-molded polyamide. Deflex, an additional injection-molded PMMA base material, SRIvocap, and a typical compression-molded PMMA (Meliodent). The flexural qualities (deflection, bending strength, and bending modulus) of 100 different denture base materials …

A Study of the Masticatory Efficiency in Patients with Telescopic Crown Dentures
Abstract: The authors’ aim was to investigate the masticatory process in patients with telescopic crown dentures using an artificial test bite. The targets of the study were 65 patients, divided into two groups: a Control group and a Clinical group. The test bite sample used was Protab®, suitable for prosthetic dentitions. A sieve analysis was applied in determining the particles’ size after chewing and the particle-size distribution using a set of …

Impressions in Fixed Partial Dentures: A Review
Abstract: Flawless impression is the most critical of simplicities in indirect restorative dentistry. Pre-requisite for successful fixed partial denture is an accurate three dimensional facsimile of the prepared teeth. Knowledge of various impression techniques, nature and behavioral properties of the available impression materials is mandatory for a good impression. Today the techniques and materials exceed our needs in terms of accuracy and properties. Yet, a flawed and imperfect impression is not …

Prosthodontic Rehabilitation of a Nonagenarian Patient
Abstract: Geriatric patient are real challenges in dentistry. They require physical, psychological social support services to attain a proper treatment. Treating Nonagenarian patient having an age of 95year is really questionable, in a prosthodontist view high quality complete denture has been a key skill for the proper management of severely resorbed ridge. Complete edentulism can be described as an irreversible condition that decreases health-related quality of life with consequences on chewing …

Prosthodontics Rehabilitation of a Completely Edentulous Patient with Customized Bar and Loop Supported Overdenture: A Clinical Report
Abstract: Rehabilitation of the completely edentulous patient is still considered the most challenging job from the general dentist as well as from the prosthodontist point of view. As it is very difficult for the patient to get adapted to the complete denture after losing the natural teeth. Hence when the patient comes to the dentist with the complaint of inability to eat with present teeth and the operator diagnosed the case …

Obtaining Balanced Occlusion with Monoplane Teeth Using Balancing Ramp- A Case Report
Abstract: Lateral or tipping forces produce unfavorable forces affecting denture stability and have ill effect on structures comprising the denture foundation area. Denture occlusion differs from natural organic occlusion in order to compensate for the lack of retention, stability and support when compared with natural dentition. Bilateral balance occlusion decreases the transmission of lateral tipping forces. Monoplane occlusion further attempts to decrease the tipping forces by reducing the effect of incline …

Designing Cantilever Prosthesis: A Case Study
Abstract: A critical edentulous situation that tests the ability of a prosthodontist includes simple edentulous situations like when a maxillary lateral incisor is missing. This is not because of difficulty to restore but the greater challenge is which prosthesis to select. Conventionally, cantilever fixed partial denture has been the choice in such situations. Advances in implant have, however affected the occurrence of such cases. However, patients where other treatment options are …

Evaluation of Neurosensory Function following Inferior Alveolar Nerve Lateralization for Placement of Dental Implants – A Case Report
Abstract: Keeping in tune with recent trends, replacement of missing teeth with implant supported prosthesis is gaining preference over various prosthetic options, i.e., removable partial dentures and fixed partial dentures. This is mainly because in addition to inherent inadequacies in rehabilitation fixed partial dentures include the sacrifice of healthy tooth substance of the adjacent teeth.Implants help us to overcome most problems associated with traditional prosthesis. However, in patients with atrophied mandibles …

Tooth Supported Overdenture: Preventive Prosthodontic Treatment Modality––A Case Report
Abstract: This is a case report of a very young patient who has lost all her maxillary teeth except canines and partially edentulous in the lower arch. The main concern here was to preserve the existing residual alveolar ridge from the resorption process and to rehabilitate functionally and esthetically. Initially, vestibuloplasty was performed on the buccal sulcus to increase the vestibular depth. The maxillary canines were intentionally root canal treated, followed …

Parametric optimization and validation of novel 3D scanning approach for sustainable manufacturing of patient-specific orthodontic retainers
Abstract: The purpose of the proposed study is to identify the ideal procedure parameters for 3D scanning a denture in order to produce customised orthodontic retainers that can be produced sustainably. However, pilot investigations rarely explore parameters like scanning angle, light intensity, or scanning distance. In order to lower acquisition error, the suggested study examines a method for forecasting the ideal values of the previously indicated scanning parameters. Based on the …
