A highly accurate impression is one of success requirements in implant dentistry. passively fitting prothesis achieved when the 3-dimensional position implants precisely transferred to cast. Various techniques are described literature. Each presents indications, qualities and limits. Many studies compared main which closed open-tray impressions along with their specificities. In this second par...

Dear Editor: We read with great interest the article by Namratha and Shetty entitled “A Technique to Evaluate Custom Tray Border Extensions Before Peripheral Molding.” Articles related to evaluation of denture border extensions are numerous, but there is marked paucity of literature regarding evaluation of border extensions of custom trays before border molding. The authors have introduced a co...

the use of multiple implants in the same jaw requires a detailed knowledge of abutment angulation. the position and angulation of the abutments play an important role in treatment planning and fabrication of the custom tray. therefore diagnostic casts that contain cover screws may cause problems during implant therapy. the current article describes a technique for making a preliminary cast with...

BACKGROUND There are no clear guidelines for how long a sterile operating-room tray can be exposed to the open environment before the contamination risk becomes unacceptable. The purpose of this study was to determine the time until first contamination and the rate of time-dependent contamination of sterile trays that had been opened in a controlled operating-room environment. We also examined ...

Previous techniques that have been used to monitor broiler embryonic temperature and metabolism during incubation either have been invasive to the embryo or have not directly determined internal egg temperature. Therefore, the current investigation was conducted to determine the earliest day of incubation on which temperature transponder implantation in the egg air cell could be performed with ...
