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.
Analyzing and comparing the retention, accuracy, EMG and patient satisfaction of maxillary complete denture base fabricated by conventional and rapid prototyping techniques.
Objective of the present study was to assess the peri-implant soft tissue profiles between argon plasma pre-treated (PT) and non-treated (NPT) abutments by comparing clinical and histological parameters 2 months after abutment placement.
This study examines the effects of prosthetic treatment options applied to edentulous geriatric individuals who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry on chewing function, food consumption status, malnutrition status and oral health-related quality of life.
Our long-term goal is to generate evidence for the creation of successful implant restorations and ideal supporting tissues in adequate health by utilizing patient-tailored implant protocols such as the use of customized computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) healing abutments. With this study, the investigators intend to recruit patients requiring a single implant placement and implant crown in molar areas. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the control group that will receive standard healing abutments or the test control group that will receive customized CAD/CAM healing abutments. Patients will be followed for six months after the delivery of the implant crowns. The central hypothesis is that the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will demonstrate improved outcomes in terms of hard and soft tissue volume stability and clinical parameters as compared to the use of standard healing abutments. Aim 1 will measure soft and hard tissue changes around dental implants when customized CAD/CAM healing abutments are utilized as compared to standard healing abutments. Soft tissue stability will be measured utilizing intraoral digital scans, while osseous levels will be measured utilizing CBCT scans. Soft and hard tissue volumetric and linear changes will be measured by digital scan superimposition at the time of crown delivery and 6 months thereafter. Volumetric and linear changes will be compared within each group at different time points and between the test and control group to determine if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments is advantageous in terms of maintaining peri-implant soft and hard tissue stability. Aim 2 will assess different clinical measurements around dental implants to analyze if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will demonstrate improved plaque control and peri-implant health as compared to standard healing abutments. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depths (PD), and bleeding on probing (BOP) will be obtained at the time of crown delivery and at 3 and 6 months. Clinical measurements will be compared between the test and control group to determine if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will aid in obtaining a natural looking restoration that would result in improved clinical parameters that measure peri-implant health. Aim 3 will compare the degree of patient satisfaction using a visual analogue scale (VAS) in patients that received an implant restoration following the use of a customized CAD/CAM healing abutment as compared to standard healing abutments. Patients will complete a VAS questionnaire that will evaluate patient perception of pain, esthetics, ability to chew, and ability to clean. Scores will be compared among groups to evaluate if there is a difference in patient-centered outcomes when customized healing abutments are used as compared to standard healing abutments.
This Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to document the success and survival of the Axiom® BL X3 Implants up to 3 years after loading.
28 participants with edentulous maxillary arches were randomly selected and enrolled in two equal groups; Group I conventional impression group (CIG) and Group II Digital impression group (DIG). All patients were rehabilitated with maxillary screw-retained implant prosthesis retained by 6 implants. Prosthodontic complications and peri-implant MBL were registered at 6,12, and 24 months (m). Data was collected and statistically analyzed.
The primary aim of this study was to compare the acoustic sound quality of edentulous patients rehabilitated with two-implant overdentures or the all-on-4 concept. The secondary aims were to evaluate the effect of implant and prosthetic success on acoustics.
The placement of implants in the symphyseal region is common, especially in the treatment of totally edentulous patients. Some implant surgical procedures may however be responsible for lesions of the vascular and nervous elements in the symphyseal region. The prevention of vascular and nervous accidents during or after implant surgery is based on the identification of vascular and nervous elements. Although the anatomy of the symphyseal region is rather well described in the literature, the data concerning totally edentulous patients remains fragmented. These suggest that tooth avulsion and bone resorption have an influence on the anatomy of the mandibular region, and of the vascular and nervous elements traveling in the anterior mandibular part. These modifications would be responsible for individual anatomical variations. In order to test this hypothesis, the investigator wish to evaluate the anatomical characteristics of the vascular and nervous elements located in the symphyseal region, retrospectively, of a totally edentulous population for which the anatomy was documented in a three-dimensional way from 2013 to 2021 before the placement of dental implants.
The aim of this study is to gather clinical data related to the use of Plastalgin and Plastalgin Fast, in order to comply with the new medical device regulation. The target population for this study is the same as the intended population specified in the study device's instructions for use: children from 5 years old and adults. Collection, recording, and reporting of data will be accurate and will ensure the privacy, health, and welfare of participating patients during and after the study
