Methods: A tertiary care center's patient data were retrospectively analyzed.
Aim: The study's objective was to assess the dimensional accuracy of hybrid polyether and polyvinyl siloxane materials for implant impressions.
Materials And Methods: Nine groups were created from 45 samples of various building materials and construction techniques from the study. Five samples were tested, and 45 impressions were recorded.
Aim: Single-tooth implant restorations, whether screw-retained or cement-retained, are essential for prosthodontic rehabilitation despite having low design flexibility, cosmetic appeal, and high 5-year survival rates.
Materials And Methods: A study involving 14 patients with missing mandibular first molars used 28 implants and cement-retained and screw-retained prostheses. Patients had a single edentulous gap, adequate dental hygiene, and sufficient bone volume at the implant site.
Purpose: To compare prevalence and type of complications associated with metal resin fixed complete dentures based on implant distribution.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included data collected for a period of 12 years for patients treated with maxillary and mandibular implant-supported fixed complete dentures at Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. In total, 223 patient's charts were reviewed which included 100 maxillary and 123 mandibular fixed complete dentures.
