Evaluation of Accuracy and Position of Milled and 3D-Printed Teeth in Digital Complete Dentures.

Purpose: To compare the accuracy of milled versus 3D-printed complete denture bases and teeth and to assess the position of the teeth in relation to the corresponding denture bases.

Materials And Methods: Two different manufacturing techniques were used in this study. In Group A, 10 complete dentures were digitally designed and fabricated by milling prepolymerized blocks of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).

Structure-activity relationships andz interindividual variability of drug responses: pharmacogenomics with antimicrobial drugs as a paradigm.

Adverse drug reactions represent a major health burden because they cause notable patient morbidity and mortality. From this viewpoint, several strategies have been developed to prevent or reduce adverse drug reactions. One such strategy is the use of pharmacogenomics.

A Comparison of Denture Base Retention and Adaptation Between CAD/CAM and Conventional Fabrication Techniques.

Purpose: To assess the retention and adaptation of milled and printed denture bases in comparison to conventional ones.

Materials And Methods: A total of 24 completely edentulous patients were selected. For each patient, three maxillary denture bases were constructed according to different fabrication techniques, thus defining the three groups for comparison: group 1 consisted of denture bases constructed by a conventional technique, group 2 consisted of denture bases milled from prepolymerized blocks of PMMA, and group 3 consisted of denture bases fabricated by a 3D printing technique.

Assessment of tooth positions of printed complete dentures with different designs and tooth positioning techniques.

Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of tooth positions in printed complete dentures with different designs and teeth positioning techniques.

Materials And Methods: Five different designs of complete dentures and teeth positioning techniques were evaluated in this in vitro study. In Group I, the denture bases and teeth were designed as a single piece.

Customized scan bodies to facilitate intraoral scanning for full arch implant prosthesis: A dental technique.

This article presents the design of customized resin scan bodies with different forms and their use to facilitate intraoral scanning of a maxillary full arch implant case with five implants. The aim is to limit the distance between the scan bodies and to create definite landmarks to facilitate the scanning process in full arch implant cases.
