CAD-CAM denture teeth made on cast metal removable partial denture frameworks.

Once the fit of the cast metal framework on a removable partial denture (RPD) has been verified, the manufacturer's prefabricated denture teeth are typically secured on the cast metal framework to prepare for a wax evaluation. Although prefabricated denture teeth are available in different tooth forms and sizes, they require modification to fit an edentulous space. In arches with severe space discrepancy, it may be inefficient and time-consuming to make modifications to prefabricated denture teeth.

Clinical, Etiological, and Therapeutic Features of Jaw-opening and Jaw-closing Oromandibular Dystonias: A Decade of Experience at a Single Treatment Center.

Background: Dystonia is a heterogeneous hyperkinetic disorder. The anatomical location of the dystonia helps clinicians guide their evaluation and treatment plan. When dystonia involves masticatory, lingual, and pharyngeal muscles, it is referred to as oromandibular dystonia (OMD).

In vitro analysis of post-fatigue reverse-torque values at the dental abutment/implant interface for a unitarian abutment design.

Purpose: This study analyzed baseline and post-fatigue reverse-torque values (RTVs) for a specific brand control abutment relative to a third party compatible abutment. The purpose of this study was to compare the abutments' fatigue resistance to simulated function, using RTVs as an indication of residual preload at the implant/abutment interface.

Materials And Methods: Forty Straumann tissue-level implants were mounted in resin and divided into four groups (n = 10).

Tensile bond strength of acrylic resin denture teeth to a microwave- or heat-processed denture base.

Statement Of Problem: Fracture of acrylic resin prosthetic teeth from acrylic resin denture bases can be a problem for some patients. The optimal combination of acrylic resin denture tooth, denture base material, and processing method is not known. Purpose.

Fabricating custom provisional restorations for the ITI solid abutment system.

This article describes a technique for the quick and accurate fabrication of custom acrylic resin provisional restorations for the ITI implant system. Materials and procedures common to fixed prosthodontics are used. The technique should necessitate no more chairtime than the fabrication of custom acrylic provisional restorations for conventional fixed prostheses.
