Comparative evaluation of masticatory efficiency, clinical performance, and patient satisfaction of single implant-retained mandibular overdenture versus conventional complete denture: A prospective in vivo study.

Aim: The aim of this within-subject prospective clinical study was to investigate the scope of single implant mandibular overdenture by assessing its masticatory efficiency, clinical performance, and patient satisfaction compared to conventional complete dentures.

Settings And Design: Prospective In Vivo Study.

Material And Methods: This prospective in vivo study was conducted in the Department of Prosthodontics and Crown and Bridge, Christian Dental College, Ludhiana.

Surface trueness and precision of interim restorations fabricated by digital light processing and CAD-CAM milling systems.

Statement Of Problem: The development of digital dental technologies has enabled clinicians to use additive and subtractive manufacturing techniques to fabricate interim restorations. However, knowledge of the trueness and precision of such restorations fabricated using digital light processing (DLP) and computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) methods is limited.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess and compare the accuracy of interim crowns fabricated using DLP and CAD-CAM methods.

A 10-year (2010 to 2019) scientometric analysis of prosthodontic journals based on SCImago Journal and Country Rank indicators.

Statement Of Problem: Scientometrics is the study of measuring and analyzing scholarly literature. Scientometric analysis to determine the impact of prosthodontic journals on scientific contributions is lacking.

Purpose: The purpose of this analysis was to compare the quality of prosthodontic journals based on performance indicators over 10 years (2010 to 2019).
