One hundred patients were treated with complete dentures. The patients were divided into two equal groups; the first group (50 patients) received complete dentures and a clinical remount procedure was performed, while the second group received complete dentures without a clinical remount. A four point, nine scale Patient Denture Satisfaction questionnaire was used to evaluate the patients' sati...

PURPOSE The purpose was to assess the outcome of improved staff supervision on the efficiency and quality of complete dentures delivered by clinical students. MATERIALS AND METHODS The audit was performed in two parts. In the first cycle, retrospective analysis for complete dentures delivered by clinical students was undertaken, and patient's satisfaction was graded using Geriatric/General Or...

This article describes a unique prosthetically driven protocol that uses computeraided engineering to develop sophisticated, scientific algorithms that guide the fabrication of a conversion denture using the AvaDent Digital Denture system (Global Dental Science). This system is combined with Nobel Clinician (Nobel Biocare) implant-planning software to optimize accuracy and to make it easier and...

Three-dimensional representation to screen the adaptation process of individual dentures is presented. In the parametric analysis of electromyographic (EMG) signals, we have to deal with the complicated behavior of a lot of parameters in the time domain. We have employed the less-biased time varying AR model parameters estimated by locally quasi-stationary processing. Hence, we propose the time...

BACKGROUND Bone preservation is an essential issue in the context of last teeth extraction and complete edentulism. The intended treatment, whether a complete denture or an implant placement, is facilitated with a voluminous residual ridge. Bone resorption after multiple extractions has not been as well studied as the bone resorption that occurs after the extraction of a single tooth. Recent ad...

PURPOSE This study compared the flow rate and pH of resting (unstimulated) and stimulated whole saliva before and after complete denture placement in different age groups. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty healthy, non-medicated edentulous individuals of different age groups requiring complete denture prostheses were selected from the outpatient department. The resting (unstimulated) and stimulated...
