Gold is widely used in prosthetics. Its use ranges from being employed in the fabrication of removable dentures, where the inner surface permanently touching oral cavity tissues, through to fixed dentures, and even some structures of certain implantological systems. All such items can be made of galvanized gold. Thus, new technologies have made gold and its alloys a kind of a universal material.
Although cleaning dentures by immersion in chemical denture cleaning solutions is effective in reducing the number of bacteria, a large number remains adhering to the denture surface. Thus, the mechanical cleansing of dentures is imperative to remove adherent microbes, and prevent diseases. This is not always easy to achieve, due to un-compliant patients, or patients with diminished manual dexterity (e.g. Mani phalanx dysfunction or Rheumatoid Arthritis) that often require assistance in cleaning their dentures, which may not always be available. Therefore, the modification of denture base materials to provide them with antibacterial properties to control oral biofilm formation, and producing dentures that can be cleaned by simply rinsing in water would prove to be valuable in oral hygienic management in complete denture-wearing patients.
Cross over design the investigator divide participants to two groups group (A) will receive rapid heat cured denture base material and group (b) will receive the acrylic denture modified by titanium dioxide nanoparticles and after washout period alternatively group (a) will receive the acrylic denture modified by titanium dioxide nanoparticles AND group (b) will receive rapid heat cured denture base material the investigator will take swaps from dentures to count the anaerobic bacteria.
Measurement of surface roughness of tow different material of denture base to find out which material is more hygienic by decreasing the amount of bacterial accumulation.
This study evaluates the effect of coatings on bacterial adhesion on denture acrylic and the wear of denture teeth.
Denture stomatitis (DS) is an oral biofilm associated inflammatory disease of the palatal mucosa. It is the most prevalent oral disease and the main indicator of poor oral health among denture wearers, affecting one-third of all complete denture wearers. The etiology of DS is multifactorial, with documented role of mechanical trauma, bacteria and fungi. Risk factors may include, poor oral hygiene and nocturnal use of dentures. However, the evidence is ambiguous, inconclusive and recurrence following routine antifungal therapy is common. The proposed study is a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of palatal brushing in reducing the colony forming unit (CFU) count and clinical inflammation. The assessment of change in CFU count and clinical inflammation will be carried out at baseline, 3 months and 6 months.
Several dental professionals recommend that complete denture wearers should brush their palate. Some advantages include better cleansing and blood flow, which may help to prevent or treat oral infections, such as denture-related stomatitis. However, there is no previous clinical trial dealing on that subject. Therefore, our goal is to evaluate whether palatal brushing may change the severity of denture stomatitis or counts of microbes on dentures and mucosa. After an initial exam and data collection, participants will receive instructions for palatal hygiene and will be assessed following 1 and 3 months. Collected data include patient-reported information, intraoral photographs and swabbing (for counting microbes). Tested Hypotheses: - There is no difference in the extent of palatal inflammation in edentulous patients with denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing. - There is no difference in the number of colony forming unit (CFU) of Candida isolated from palate and denture of patients affected by denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of presence of oral fungal infection, which leads to denture-related stomatitis, on blood pressure, endothelial function and immune cell phenotype in patients wearing dentures.
Palatal brushing has several advantages including removal of debris and stimulation of blood flow and saliva, which may help to prevent or treat oral diseases, such as denture-related stomatitis in complete denture wearers. However, there is no previous clinical trial testing this effect. Therefore, the investigators goal is to evaluate whether palatal brushing may change the severity of denture stomatitis and counts of microbes on denture and palatal mucosa. After an initial exam and data collection, participants will receive instructions about palatal brushing and they will be assessed after 1 and 3 months. Collection of data will include patient-reported information, intraoral photographs and swabbing (for counting microbes). Tested Hypotheses: - There is no difference in the extent of palatal inflammation in edentulous patients with denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing. - There is no difference in the number of colony forming unit (CFU) of Candida isolated from palate and denture of patients affected by denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing.
