چکیده

Adequate tooth reduction is a prerequisite for function, esthetics, and longevity of fixed restorations. A tooth reduction guide may be useful for establishing the proper angulation of the tooth and maximizing periodontal health and restorative success. This article describes a simple and versatile technique for an accurate evaluation of tooth reduction for fixed restorations by using a color-contrasting positive guide of a silicone occlusal registration material processed inside a vacuum-formed clear thermoplastic matrix.

A Technique to Guide and Measure the Reduction of a Processed Mandibular Complete Denture for Resilient Soft Liner

A resilient soft liner (RSL) has been used in processed complete dentures but controlling its thickness has always been a challenge because of uneven reduction of the denture’s intaglio surface. Use of a thermoplastic vacuum-formed template and an endodontic K-file, as guides, for the reduction of a processed mandibular complete denture to receive RSL is described in the present report. A proce...

A modified method for fabricating a radiographic stent with transparent occlusal registration material for implant placement.

Figure 1. Apply transparent occlusal registration material. For successful implant placement, the evaluation of anatomic structures is important in deciding the diameter, length, position, and angulation of the implant. Various diagnostic methods such as radiographic stent and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) can be used to determine the appropriate position. A radiographic stent can stably...

Influence of the material for preformed moulds on the polymerization temperature of resin materials for temporary FPDs

PURPOSE Temperature increase of 5.5 ℃ can cause damage or necrosis of the pulp. Increasing temperature can be caused not only by mechanical factors, e.g. grinding, but also by exothermic polymerization reactions of resin materials. The aim of this study was to evaluate influences of the form material on the intrapulpal temperature during the polymerization of different self-curing resin materia...
