Purpose: Evaluation of the strain transmitted to the abutments and residual ridge by polyetherketoneketone material compared to the cobalt-chromium one in distal extension removable partial dentures (RPDs) to fulfill the objective of preservation of the supporting structures.
Materials And Methods: A virtual model simulating a Kennedy class I partially edentulous mandibular arch was designed. Two models, one for each group, were printed.
Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of tooth positions in printed complete dentures with different designs and teeth positioning techniques.
Materials And Methods: Five different designs of complete dentures and teeth positioning techniques were evaluated in this in vitro study. In Group I, the denture bases and teeth were designed as a single piece.
