Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the effectiveness of prosthetic rehabilitation and implants for patients with thin, wiry ridges, focusing on both clinical and radiographic outcomes.
- Twenty-one participants underwent a ridge expansion technique for implant placement, with measurements taken at various intervals to evaluate implant stability and bone levels.
- Results showed that all implants were successful, with significant improvements in bone stability and minimal complications reported, supporting the use of the split ridge technique for rehabilitation.
Objective: The aim of the study was patients' satisfaction evaluation and radiographic evaluation of the terminal abutments of attachment-retained maxillary obturators with metal framework versus milled polyetheretherketone (PEEK) framework in the management of maxillectomy cases.
Materials And Methods: Eighteen participants were randomly divided into three parallel groups ( = 6). Participants of the PEEK group received attachment-retained obturators with milled PEEK framework, the metal group received an attachment-retained obturator with a metallic framework, and the conventional group received conventional clasp-retained obturators with a metallic framework (Control group).
