Filter by:This study presents a smart digital approach to design and construct a screw retained immediately loaded full arch implant supported bridge based on the pre-treatment complete denture.
A Total number of 36 implants were installed in 6 patients having mandibular single denture. The patients were divided into two groups according to the definitive prosthesis. Group I received ball and socket retained mandibular implant overdenture while Group II received cement retained implant supported fixed bridges.
The effect of using denture adhesives on patient satisfaction with complete dentures; A randomized clinical trial. The study evaluates the effect of using 3 types of denture adhesives on patient satisfaction and quality of life of complete denture patients
The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, 2-period crossover trial was to assess the satisfaction of edentulous patients and their oral health impact profile when provided with complete dentures fabricated using the conventional and simplified techniques.
Bite testing using T-Scan allows the evaluation of occlusal contacts prior to making a bite adjustment. The T-Scan can indicate premature contact and the load distribution on teeth, and provide measurable force and time information that ensures proper occlusal adjustment.
80 complete denture (CD) wearers participated in the quasi-experimental study. Two outcomes were: 1) oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) assessed using the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances index, and 2) masticatory performance, determined by a peanut particle size after 20-stroke mastication. Denture retention and stability were evaluated using the Chulalongkorn University (CU)-modified Kapur method to classify the CD into acceptable or unacceptable quality. Data were collected at 3-time points: 1) at baseline (T0), 2) after a 1-month trial of denture adhesive (DA) use (T1), at which time the participants decided whether to continue using DA, and 3) 1-month after continued or discontinued using DA (T2).
This study aims to test the combined effects of different loading protocols and surgical approaches on clinical and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) following the use of four mini implants for mandibular overdenture retention. The main study hypotheses are: 1. There are significant improvements in PROMs following implant intervention compared to baseline measures; 2. Immediately loaded mini implants have similar failure rates compared to mini implants receiving a delayed 6-week protocol. 3. Flapless surgery has similar post-insertion outcomes compared to flapped surgery.
This is a randomized clinical trial designed to assess the 1-year effectiveness of two treatment modalities for the mandibular edentulists: conventional complete dentures and single-implant mandibular overdenture.
Esthetic is a major factor in complete denture (CD) success. Patient involvement in esthetic project plays a crucial role in denture acceptance and patient satisfaction. Historically, teeth choice and arrangement were made according to Frush and Ficher's recommendations focusing on natural looking of esthetics. Dentists may also propose to restore the dentate state looking for denture when preextraction data are available. Recently, a patient-centered approach based on attractivity has been proposed and may lead to in an appearance transcending the laws of nature. The aim of the present study was to investigate actual denture esthetic expectations in a French edentate population followed in a university dental clinic (Rothschild Hospital , AP-HP).
Dental implants are often the preferred treatment option and in some clinical scenarios they are considered the standard of care to restore missing or damaged teeth, due to the limitations of conventional treatments. For fully edentulous subjects, conventional tissue-supported dentures in some cases are associated with severe subjective complaints and difficult adaptation, mainly the mandibular denture, resulting in limited function and detrimental effects on oral health-related quality of life, especially for older patients. The use of implants to retain a mandibular denture (overdenture) has been recommended as a suitable and low-cost alternative to improve denture stability, with positive effects on oral comfort and function. The two-implant mandibular overdenture has been considered an effective design to achieve clinical benefits for patients. However, the main problem facing two-implant overdenture is the high cost of implantation and the relative complexity of the surgical intervention, so the use of a single midline implant to retain a mandibular overdenture was suggested as a more viable solution for reducing costs and complexity of treatment with similar benefits compared to solutions with higher number of implants. Nevertheless, there are few studies that compared the performance of different retention systems and their effects on patient-centered outcomes, such as satisfaction with the dentures, oral health-related quality of life, individual preferences and other subjective ratings of clinical outcomes. Thus, the aim of this randomized clinical trial with a crossover design is to investigate the changes in clinical and patient-reported outcomes following the use of different retention systems for a single implant-retained mandibular overdenture Hypothesis: it was hypothesized that clinical and patient-reported outcomes of a single-implant mandibular overdenture is dependent on the type of retention system, and patients have distinct preferences in relation to different attachments
