Introduction: In dental implants, the biochemical connection between titanium (ti) and bony tissue has been well established. The properties of dental implants such as osseointegration and stability depend upon composition, design of the implant, connection, and design of the abutment, and additional removal of abutments. Recently, laser-generated micro-grooved surface (LSS) and TI abutments are the main focus of preventing peri-implant inflammation.

Materials And Methods: A total of 40 heat cure resin specimens were fabricated and finished to a size of 64 mm × 10 mm × 2.5 mm.
Aim: This study was undertaken to study the effect of three most commonly used dentifrices for denture cleaning and to find out any positive association between number of strokes by toothbrush and surface roughness of acrylic resin.
Materials And Methods: About 40 acrylic rectangular blocks with high finish were polished until surface roughness was calculated as 0 pirn. The materials tested were distilled water as a control group, Patanjali Dant Kanti, Colgate Total Cream, and Cleansodent as dentifrices.
