Background and objectives: determine the causes and types of complete denture fractures. Methods: The study was performed in the Hawler medical university, college of Dentistry Department of Prosthodontics. The number of fractured complete denture collected was 290 from patients aged 35-80 years of both genders. The (causes of denture fracture, the type of fracture and the history of previous r...

PURPOSE Study was conducted to determine and assess the effect of different type of denture adhesives on the incisal bite force of complete denture wearers until the dislodgement of upper denture, using pressure transducer. MATERIALS AND METHODS 30 patients out of 100 were included in the study. Based on the Kapur's method of scoring denture retention and stability, these patients were divide...

Foreign body aspiration is unusual in adults, except those who are debilitated or have neuropsychiatric disorders. It can be a life-threatening situation and it often requires a high index of suspicion, because the diagnosis can be obscure. Prompt diagnosis and intervention through foreign body retrieval are critical to prevent significant morbidity and mortality. We present a case of denture a...

In this investigation the denture retention was measured and the influence of denture -retention on ima'sticatory efficiency was examined. The investigation was iperf armed on 36 comiplete denture wearers. The test of masticatory efficiency wals used according to Ni'kšić (1965). The meaisuriinig of denture retention was made by specially constructed mechanical scale, which wa's designed so that...

Objective. To investigate the influence of reproduction of different thickness and palatal rugae materials on complete dentures speech using Computerized Speech Lab (CSL) (spectrogram). Materials and Methods. Three completely edentulous male patients (aged 50-60 years) were selected for reading a paragraph. Twelve upper dentures were constructed, four for each patient. The patients' speech grou...

AIM Denture-related stomatitis is a disorder that often affects denture wearers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intensity, genera, and frequency of yeasts in the oral cavity of complete denture wearers in terms of subject gender and age. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nine hundred twenty patients (307 males and 613 females) with complete upper dentures were selected for the study and di...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fabrication of a complete denture using a CAD/CAM system. Cone beam CT was used to measure the complete denture and the artificial teeth. After a 3D complete denture image was structured using 3D CAD software, we factored out the artificial teeth and obtained a 3D denture base image. A machining center cut an acrylic resin block, and fabricated an a...

Background: According to previous studies, persons wearing implant-retained prostheses may create bite forces comparable to those possessing natural dentition and it has been suggested that the risk for combination syndrome increases in persons wearing mandibular implant-retained prostheses opposed to maxillary complete dentures. Aim: This article presents the fabrication of a maxillary convent...

Introduction: Swing-lock framework partial removable denture is an option used as splinting in cases where there several mobility teeth. The purpose of these periodontal prostheses was to help stabilize the teeth adjuvant therapy. has more difficult construction and digital dentistry facilitates fabrication process swing-lock dentures by burn-out resin milling model making technique. Aim : This...
