One of the most challenging and demanding endeavors in the field of prosthodontics is the rehabilitation of an edentulous mandible. Implants have been used to support mandibular or maxillary prosthetic rehabilitation. Advantages of using implants are increased retention, increased chewing ability, and also easy access to oral hygiene procedures.

Parameters Affecting the Retention Force of CAD/CAM Telescopic Crowns: A Focused Review of In Vitro Studies.

J Clin Med

September 2021

Dental Materials Science, Discipline of Applied Oral Sciences and Community Dental Care, Faculty of Dentistry, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

Telescopic systems constructed using computer aided design and computer aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) can overcome many drawbacks associated with conventionally constructed ones. Since retention is considered the most important function of these retainers, this scoping review aimed to discuss and summarize the parameters that affect this function in CAD/CAM-manufactured telescopic crowns and to compare their retention force values with the recommended retention force. An electronic search was done in Pubmed and Google Scholar databases using different keyword combinations to find the related articles.

Influence of rigidity of retainers on dynamic behavior of implant-supported removable partial dentures.

Int J Implant Dent

October 2020

Oral Functional Prosthodontics, Division of Oral Functional Science, Facility of Dental Medicine, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan.

Background: Implant-supported removable partial dentures (ISRPDs) are an effective treatment for partially edentulous patients. ISRPDs improve patients' satisfaction and oral function to a greater extent than RPDs by improving denture stability and enhancing support. However, the effect of a type of direct retainer on displacement of the abutment teeth and dentures in ISRPDs remains unclear.

Statement Of Problem: Nonrigid retainer systems for removable implant superstructures are associated with negative effects such as rocking and increased load on the denture base. Rigid retainer systems such as telescopic crowns reduce these negative effects, but their fabrication demands highly skilled dental technicians and is therefore expensive. Whether a protocol with prefabricated retainers will reduce production time is unclear.

Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate the clinical outcome for electroplated telescopic removable dental prostheses (E-RDPs) with zirconia primary crowns.

Materials And Methods: Sixty E-RDPs, with primary crowns manufactured from either cobalt-chromium alloy or zirconia, were fabricated for 56 participants. Electroplating was used to produce gold copings directly on the telescopic primary crowns.
