Aim: Residual ridges change in shape and reduce in size due to alveolar bone resorption. Therefore, the purpose was to investigate changes in denture base thickness (DBT) and interocclusal rest space (IRS) with regard to the denture relining procedure.
Methods: The IRS and DBT were measured (before and after denture relining) in the case of 74 patients and their removable dental prostheses by using a precise sliding gauge. The DBT measuring was performed in 6 points for maxillary and in 3 points for mandibular removable dental prosthesis. The IRS values were measured as the distance (in mm) between the incisal edges of the maxillary and mandibular central incisors with patient's mandible in a physiological "rest position" with head and neck in the upright posture.
Results: In a group of patients wearing maxillary and mandibular removable dental prosthesis mean values of DBT after denture relining were statistically significantly higher (p <0.05) in almost all measuring points. The IRS mean values after relining were statistically significantly lower (p <0.05). Statistically significant differences (p <0.05) of DBT were also observed in groups of "day-night time" and "day time" denture wearers, and in a group of patients for whom a period shorter than one year had passed since the last tooth extraction and the time when a functional impression for removable dental prostheses was taken.
Conclusion: The DBT and IRS values change after the denture relining procedure due to the alveolar bone resorption. Therefore, these measures could be used as resorption indicators in dental practice.

Comparison between relining of ill-fitted maxillary complete denture versus CAD/CAM milling of new one regarding patient satisfaction, denture retention and adaptation.

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.

Division of Comprehensive Oral Health, Department of Restorative Sciences, School of Dentistry, Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the tensile bond strength between soft relining materials and different denture base materials.
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted in accordance with ISO 23401:2023. A total of 288 rectangular specimens (10L × 10H × 20W mm) were fabricated from various denture base materials, including a heat-compression polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), two types of milled PMAA, and three types of 3D-printed resins, with bonding using two chairside soft reline materials (Coe-Soft and Lynal).

Purpose: Implant-supported overdentures have been an effective treatment method for edentulous mandibles. However, the loading time after implant placement is still controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of implant-supported overdentures using telescopic crowns for the treatment of edentulous patients with immediate loading protocol.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of mechanical roughening, adhesive applications, and aging on the bonding between CAD-CAM denture base materials with distinct chemical contents and hard relining material.
Materials And Methods: A total of 300 denture base specimens were produced by additive, subtractive, and conventional heat-polymerization techniques (N = 100). The specimens have been classified into five subgroups based on the particular surface treatments administered (n = 20): (1) Hard relining material's adhesive application (control); (2) Tungsten carbide bur application for 1 min, and hard reline material's adhesive application; (3) Airborne-particle abrasion (APA) with 110 μm AlO, and hard reline material's adhesive application; (4) Scotchbond Universal application; and (5) Visio.
