The importance of an accurately fitting fixed prosthesis or a removable prosthesis is essential for the success of the restoration. Ill-fitting prosthesis may cause mechanical failures of the prosthesis, implant systems, or biologic complications of the surrounding tissue. There are several causes related to improper seating of the prosthesis. Some of which can be corrected and the others need ...

Background: In routine prosthodontic treatment, prosthodontists may encounter patients having increased oral sensitivity to foreign objects, resulting in gagging. The present study was done to survey the patients with gag reflex needing prosthetic treatment. Materials and methods: This descriptive epidemiological investigation was conducted in the Department of Prosthodontics at College of Dent...

UNLABELLED Provisional implant restorations are essential tools used to optimize the esthetic outcomes for single-tooth implant restorations. This article describes three groups of available alternatives and the specific options within each group including removable prostheses (interim removable partial denture, vacuum-formed appliance), tooth-supported prostheses (bonded extracted or denture t...

A space in the anterior region of the dental arch of a youngster, either due to trauma or a congenitally missing tooth, can not only lead to psychological trauma but also create a functional dilemma for the dentist, as the usual treatment options of implant, removable partial denture and fixed partial denture available for adults, are often inapplicable or inconvenient for an adolescent. In suc...

Aim: The aim of this review is to summarize and discuss the available information concerning the connection between the tooth and implant in a fixed partial denture. Background: Although implant-supported prosthesis (ISP) has substantial biological and biomechanical advantages, due to the extensive use of implant in partially edentulous patients, encounter to cases of obligatory connection betw...

Aim: To compare new design implant-supported removable partial dentures retained with anterior fixed prosthesis a conventional locater and bar attached implant overdenture prostheses by two or four implants via photoelastic stress analysis. Materials Methods: Seven edentulous mandibuler acryclic models prepared divided into main groups; to models, subgroup separation as stated; for locator atta...

The objective of this review was to collect information on available additive manufacturing technologies used for the fabrication either single crowns or fixed-dental prosthesis (FDP) with a focus chemistry, surface characteristics and interaction between frameworks veneering ceramics. Original scientific papers in MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, Scopus databases, published 01 January 1996 30 June 20...

full mouth rehabilitation in patients with ectodermal dysplasia (ed) is difficult to manage, especially because the afflicted individuals are quite young when they are evaluated for treatment; therefore, esthetics is an important concern. this clinical report describes the rehabilitation of a 19-year-old girl diagnosed with ectodermal dysplasia. eleven implants were placed in the maxilla and ma...
