Despite global efforts to improve individuals' oral health, a considerable proportion of patients still progress to the stage in which the extractions of all teeth in one arch or both are indicated. An immediate complete denture remains a relatively accessible treatment option, particularly for those patients who cannot afford or do not need implant treatment. It is often one of the best solutions when the complete extraction of the remaining teeth is unavoidable. The denture is fitted immediately after the surgical clearance of teeth. It acts as a splint for helping with haemostasis, preventing trauma, and promoting wound healing. More importantly, an immediate denture can copy the characteristics of the existing dentition and establishes the vertical dimension of occlusion. It offers immediate replacement of the missing teeth, thereby avoiding a period of edentulism and social embarrassment. These treatments help relieve patient anxiety and bring about patient satisfaction. This study used a case report to illustrate the clinical procedures required for the construction of an immediate complete maxillary denture with good retention, support, stability, and aesthetics.

The window technique is a highly useful clinical procedure for resolving several issues while taking a final impression of a patient with a mobile or displaceable anterior maxillary ridge, also referred to as a flabby ridge. This kind of ridge is particularly problematic due to the underlying tissues lacking strength and resilience, making it challenging to achieve a solid and comfortable denture fit. This typically exacerbates the problem, as conventional pressure during impression-making induces further displacement, which reduces the impression's precision.

Development of an antimicrobial tissue conditioner with quaternary ammonium methacryloxy silane (K18): An in vitro study.

J Prosthodont Res

January 2025

Department of Comprehensive Dentistry, UT Health San Antonio, San Antonio, USA.

Purpose: To determine the effects of K18 quaternary ammonium methacryloxy silane (QAS) on tissue conditioner materials and their antimicrobial properties.

Methods: 30% K18 QAS in methyl methacrylate (MMA; K18-MMA; 0%, 15%, and 20% w/w) was incorporated into a commercial tissue conditioner (Coe comfort). The degree of curing (Shore A hardness), hydrophilicity (contact angle), flow, liquid sorption, mass loss, and antimicrobial properties of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguinis, and Candida albicans were determined.

Purpose: This retrospective clinical study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of surveyed monolithic computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) zirconia crowns for abutment teeth in removable partial dentures (RPDs).

Methods: Patients who received monolithic surveyed zirconia crowns were clinically examined. The crowns were examined according to the modified United States Public Health Service criteria, and Kaplan-Meier survival was determined.

Purpose: This systematic review evaluated the effect of different printing orientations on the physical-mechanical properties and accuracy of resin denture bases and related specimens.

Study Selection: Utilizing PRISMA 2020 guidelines, a comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Scopus databases was conducted until June 2024. Included studies examined the accuracy, volumetric changes, and mechanical or physical properties of 3D-printed denture bases in various orientations.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the biomechanics of implant prostheses and peri-implant bone among 6 different mandibular reconstruction models based on patient data involving the use of an upper free-end double-barrel fibula.

Methods: This study was an observational study. Five models were reconstructed using fibular-supported and implant-supported partial dentures.
