Effect of cementation technique and cement type on the amount of excess cement in implant-supported cement-retained crown restorations: An in vitro study.

Statement Of Problem: Excess cement in implant-supported restorations can lead to peri-implant diseases, and its removal remains a clinical challenge. The optimum method of minimizing excess cement is unclear.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare 3 cementation techniques and 3 cement types and measure excess cement.

An alternative technique by using digital photography and UV printing for fabricating a custom made ocular prosthesis.

A person becomes disabled when they lose any of their sensory organs, the eye being one of the most delicate. Loss of an eye can happen due to different reasons and can be restored using different materials and strategies. Ocular defects and congenital deformations show up as a result of tumors or injury.

Three-dimensional printing technologies in the fabrication of maxillofacial prosthesis: A case report.

Purpose: Patients with maxillofacial deformities always seek for aesthetic prosthesis. Recently, three-dimensional printing technologies have been used for dental treatments on such patients.

Case Report: A 24-year-old man reported to the Department of Prosthodontics for replacement of his missing right ear induced by a trauma.

An alternative approach to combine orbital prosthesis and obturator: a case report.

This report describes a different approach for diminishing the movements of orbital prosthesis during mimic movements and chewing function. Mechanical devices such as magnets are used to enhance the retention in case lack of the implants. However rigid fixation of obturator and orbital prosthesis can result in movements of the orbital prosthesis during mastication.

Fabricating a hollow obturator with visible light-cured resin system.

Obturators are routinely used in the rehabilitation of maxillectomy defects. Ideally, obturators should be easily constructed to produce a comfortable and stable prosthesis. This article describes a technique that provides an easy method for the construction of an obturator prosthesis using a visible light-cured (VLC) resin.
