Despite impressive gains over the past three decades in the development and evaluation of empirically supported psychotherapies, such treatments are not used widely by front-line practicing clinicians. In an attempt to address this science-practice gap, efforts have turned recently to constructing lists of empirically supported treatments (ESTs) and disseminating information about these treatme...

1. We developed an innovative Integrated Supported Employment (ISE) service protocol, which amplifies the effect of the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model by the addition of workrelated social skills training. 2. Participants in the ISE outperformed those in the IPS and traditional vocational rehabilitation (TVR) with respect to employment rate, job tenure, and some psychological outc...

abstract introduction. nowadays dental implants are accepted as a successful replacement of conventional fixed and removable prosthesis which can restore esthetics in an ideal way. because of visibility of anterior teeth while smiling and speaking, the importance of esthetics in these areas is very important. in this research, the provision rate of esthetic indexes of crowns supported with swis...

tooth/implant supported fixed prostheses may present biomechanical design problems, as the implant is rigidly anchored within the alveolus, whereas the tooth is attached by the periodontal ligament to the bone allowing movement. many clinicians prefer tooth/implant supported fixed prosthesis designs with rigid connectors. however, there are some doubts about the effect of attachment placement i...

This report describes the clinical and technical aspects in the oral rehabilitation of an edentulous patient with knife-edge ridge at the mandibular anterior edentulous region, using implant-retained overdentures. The application of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in the fabrication of the overdenture framework simplifies the laboratory process of the implant pr...
