Evaluation and Comparison of the Effect of Different Border Molding Materials on Complete Denture Retention: An in vivo Study.

Aim: Different border molding materials have different qualities which help in recording fine details of tissues. The present study was conducted to evaluate and compare the effect of different border molding materials on complete denture retention.

Materials And Methods: The present study was conducted on 10 completely edentulous patients in the age group of 50 to 70 years.

Prognostic Implication of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors in Osseointegration of Dental Implants: A 5-year Retrospective Study.

Aim: Dental implants are the preferred treatment modality in the present edentulous era. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have detrimental effect on bone density. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of SSRIs on the success rate of dental implants.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Different Mixing Techniques and Disinfection on Microbial Colonization of Polyether Impression Materials: A Comparative Study.

Aim: This study aims to determine the role of mixing techniques of polyether impression materials and efficacy of disinfection on microbial colonization of these impression materials.

Materials And Methods: Polyether impression material was mixed using two methods: First by hand mixing (group I) and second using an automixer (group II) with a total of 100 samples. Four microbial strains were studied, which included Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans.
