View clinical trials related to Completely Edentulous Patients.
Filter by:Fourteen completely edentulous patients were selected to participate in this study. From the outpatient clinic of Prosthodontic Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Ain Shams University. After fabrication of complete denture for all patients, patients were randomly divided to: Group A: Seven patients were rehabilitated with implant retained maxillary overdenture where four Straumann BLX® implant were inserted opposed by mandibular complete denture. Group B: Seven patients were rehabilitated with implant retained maxillary overdenture where four conventional acid etched implants were inserted opposed by mandibular complete denture. After implant placement using surgical guide, smart peg and ostell device were used to measure the primary stability of the implant then cover screw was placed and after six weeks, secondary stability was measured for both groups. After four months, the second stage started in which exposure of the implant fixtures took place and pick up was carried out. Patients were recalled frequently for post-insertion inspection and adjustment.
Introduction: One major complaint frequently voiced by complete denture wearers is denture retention. Conventional denture disadvantage is heat-curing resin deformation. In addition, the pack and press technique that is still more common, residual stresses that occur at the time of packing are released when the material is removed from the flask, causing the resin to shrink, and this shrinkage is cited as a cause of poor fit of the denture base, In the field of prosthetic dentistry, the ability of additive manufacturing to fabricate prosthetic devices based on CAD data influences the overall quality, the mechanical properties of printed parts, the total cost and the manufacturing time. The milling process wastes large quantities of denture base material, and more recent three-dimensional (3D) prototyping promises a more sustainable additive approach by using less denture resin. However, no clinical reports have been published regarding the accuracy of the mucosal surface or denture retention for denture fabricated using conventional techniques compared to those fabricated using additive manufacturing. Aim of the study: Investigate the effect of two techniques of complete denture manufacturing (conventional and 3D printed) on denture retention, trueness (accuracy), and satisfaction. Methodology: Twenty patients will be selected from the outpatient clinic and will be divided into 2 groups, group A for conventional dentures and group B for 3D printed dentures, retention for the two groups will be measured at 0,1 and 3 months, and patient satisfaction will be recorded, and accuracy of the denture base will be measured on the software. The results will be tabulated and statistically analyzed using the SPSS program.
Objectives to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life and patient satisfaction in completely edentulous patients, when restored by maxillary and mandibular fixed (screw-retained) or removable telescopic retained implant supported prosthesis. 19 patients were randomized to receive either a fixed or a removable maxillary and mandibular full arch implant prosthesis. They were then asked to answer the OHIP-14 and a patient satisfaction questionnaire at 2 weeks, 3, 6 and 12 months post-prosthetic insertion.
In immediate loading of implants of completely edentulous patients, the most common post-surgical complication following the surgery noted in the dental literature is fracture of the provisional restoration with rates ranging from 4.17% to 41%. Most of these fractures occur because polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) materials are inadequate and have low rigidity to withstand extended periods of heavy occlusal use. Fractures of full arch provisional restorations during healing are concerning, because they eliminate cross-arch stabilization and disrupt stress distribution patterns which might jeopardize implant osseointegration affecting the survival rates for implants. Therefore, it is important to look for another material that has higher rigidity than PMMA and can withstand masticatory forces for extended periods without fractures or load concentration on the implants during the osseointegration period.
