Caring for patients today is very complicated and involves many clinical and administrative tasks. Clinicians are often asked to fill out a wide variety of forms, including forms that verify that the patient's clinical status is stable. Currently, these forms are filled out manually by the clinician or staff. Clinicians use electronic medical records (EMRs) have the potential for significant time savings if the EMR can be used to eliminate manually loading data already housed in the EMR. This article describes how collaboration between a government agency and a medical group that uses the Epic EMR resulted in an electronic version of a commonly used form. Once implemented, this form resulted in a significant time savings for the clinician. It is hoped that this project will serve as a template for future similar projects that could result in more efficient use of clinician and office staff's time.

BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Faculty of Dentistry, British University in Egypt (BUE), Shorouk, Egypt.
Purpose: This study aimed to compare different treatment modalities to correct ill-fitted maxillary complete denture either by the conventional relining method or by scanning the relining impression and digitally construct a new denture regarding patient satisfaction, denture retention, and adaptation.
Materials And Methods: Twelve edentulous patients suffering from loose maxillary complete dentures were selected, dentures' borders and fitting surfaces were prepared, and relining impressions were taken, the impressions were scanned and the STL files were used for CAD/CAM milling ( computer aided designing/ computer aided manufacturing) of new maxillary dentures (Group A), then the relining impression went through the conventional laboratory steps to fabricate (Group B) maxillary dentures. Both groups were evaluated regarding patient satisfaction by a specially designed questionnaire, retention values were measured by a digital force gauge at denture insertion appointment and two weeks later, geomagic software was used to evaluate dentures adaptation to oral tissues.
