Prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with nintedanib-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw: A clinical report.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw results in extensive excision and proves challenging to rehabilitate prosthetically. This article describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw induced by nintedanib. A custom-made subperiosteal implant was designed to adapt to the bone, remaining after the excision of the jaw necrosis.

Effects of nonaldehyde immersion disinfection on the mechanical properties of flexible denture materials.

Statement Of Problem: Variation in the baseline mechanical properties of polyamide thermoplastic polymers used in the fabrication of prosthetic dental appliances and the effects of nonaldehyde disinfectants on the mechanical properties of these polymers are unclear.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the flexural and impact strengths of 2 flexible denture materials (Valplast and Sunflex) and evaluate the effect of 24-hour immersion in nonaldehyde disinfectant (Perform) on their flexural and impact strengths.

Material And Methods: Of 48 specimens of Valplast and Sunflex, half were immersed in nonaldehyde disinfectant solution containing the active ingredient 2% peroxymonosulfate for 24 hours.
