Filter by:The aim of this study was to describe a novel digital technique to analyze the wear of screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and natural tooth as antagonist. Materials and methods: Ten patients were consecutively included to rehabilitate partial edentulism by dental implants. Both the screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and the natural tooth as antagonist were submitted to a digital impression through an intraoral scan to generate a Standard Tessellation Language digital file preoperatively (STL1), at 3 months (STL2), and 6 months (STL3) follow-up. Afterwards, an alignment procedure of the digital files (STL1-STL3) was performed on a reverse engineering morphometric software and volume changes at the screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and the natural tooth as antagonist were analyzed using Student's t-test. Moreover, Gage R&R statistical analysis was conducted to analyze the repeatability and reproducibility of the digital technique.
To assess the influence that the complications of implant treatment have on the patient's perception and satisfaction on treatment.
Tooth loss is a major dental problem worldwide. A recent study in Singapore found that approximately one third of adults aged over 65 are living without any natural teeth. Prevalence of loss of some teeth, or partial edentulism, in this population is estimated to be even higher. Tooth loss has a series of deleterious consequences for oral and general health. The high prevalence of tooth loss has resulted in great needs and demands of prosthetic replacements, posing challenges to the public dental care system in Singapore. Removable dentures are the most widely and commonly used device to replace missing teeth and restore oral functions. The removable denture possesses a metal framework that connects other components of the denture, to ensure rigidity and stability while in function. However, the current method of fabricating denture frameworks is a complex, error-prone, time-consuming, and expensive process. Due to the inherent inaccuracies in the materials and technique, fit of the framework is compromised and undesirable to meet patients' satisfaction. With the new development of computer aided design and 3D printing metal techniques, it is now possible to apply digital design and manufacturing for the fabrication of dentures. This proposal aims to compare the precision and fit, and patient satisfaction, of 3D printed and conventional casted removable denture frameworks in preclinical and clinical settings.
This is a randomized, prospective clinical trial. The aim of the project is to assess the clinical performance of three types of tooth-supported crowns; monolithic high translucent colored zirconia, crowns of high-translucent colored zirconia with a mini-veneer buccally and crowns of lithium-disilicate glass-ceramic. Crowns will be placed on posterior teeth and evaluated from an esthetic and functional point of view, to identify if there are any differences between the materials.
This is a randomized, single-blind, split-mouth clinical trial to evaluate the performance of peri-implant tissues (bone and soft tissues) in conventionally loaded Galimplant implants, using a classic multi-position, anti-rotational abutment, comparing it to the new multi-abutment aesthetic slim anti-rotational placed both at the time of the implant surgery. To this end, 80 Galimplant implants with a diameter of 4 mm and 10 mm in length will be placed in areas of mature scarred post-extraction bone. Patients be divided into 2 study groups, group C: straight pillar; Group T: Slim pillar. The bone and clinical radiological stability of the peri-implant tissues will be evaluated at 6 weeks post-surgery and at 6-12 months post-prosthetic loading.
This is a randomized triple-blind clinical trial to evaluate the behavior of peri-implant tissues (bone and soft tissues) in BLX implants loaded early or delayed and with different surgical milling protocols. To this end, 40 BLX implants with a diameter of 3.75x10 will be placed in areas of mature bone scarred after extraction. They will be divided into 2 study groups, and these in turn into two subgroups. Group A: complete milling, Group B: partial milling. Each group will be assigned with code 1: early load and code 2: deferred load. Clinical and radiological parameters will be evaluated.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare peri-implant tissue health, number of complications, and patient's preference between two unsplinted overdenture attachments.
The purpose of this study is to compare three different core build-up materials for dental use. The study hypothesis is that there is no differences in survival rate of the different core build-ups.
