As the number of aged people in the world is growing, the need to provide patients with tooth alternate through removable partial dentures is equally growing. There are adversarial effects that should be kept in mind which might disturb the remaining teeth; specially, the abutments and the supporting tissues. These effects might spread to the muscles of mastication and also to the supporting periodontal tissues. Thus, we should plan removable partial dentures (RPDs) without mutilation to the adjacent teeth or the underlying tissues.

Objectives: Clinical data on the performance of double-crown-retained removable dental prostheses (dcRDPs), especially beyond university studies, are rare. The objective of this retrospective clinical study was to evaluate the survival and complication-freeness probabilities of dcRDPs and to identify risk factors for failure and complications in a dental practice setting.
Materials And Methods: Anonymized practice data of 174 patients (56.

Objective: The aim of the study is to study the degree of adhesion of reference strains of microorganisms to the surface of modern polymer materials for the manufacture of removable prostheses.
Materials And Methods: The primary and residual microbial adhesion of 4 types of polymers was studied: acrylic polymer (Villacryl H Plus), monomerless polymer (Vertex ThermoSens), photopolymers for additive manufacturing (Harz Labs Dental Denture Base, Harz Labs Dental Sand). , , , and were used as reference strains.
