With the increase in life expectancy, there is increase in number of edentulous individuals requiring rehabilitation with complete dentures. Flabby ridge is a commonly encountered condition in clinical practice which affects the retention and stability of the mandibular denture. Two patients reported in K.M. Shah dental college with flabby mandibular ridges. Two different secondary impressions ...

The history of complete denture impression procedures has been influenced largely by the development of impression materials from which new techniques and ideas arose. The purpose of this study was to compare the retention of complete dentures made by using different impression techniques like conventional, admixed, all green, and functional techniques. The results showed that there was signifi...

Immediate complete denture is a full arch prosthetic, inserted immediately following the extraction of all remaining teeth to replace missing dentition and associated structures. Female patient, 74 years old, came make new set but didn’t want mobile get extracted before ready because it was still needed for her old partial retention.

Introduction: An accurate impression is essential to create a well-fitted dental prosthesis. This study aimed to compare the dimensional accuracy of three elastomeric materials using one-step and two-step impression techniques. Methods: In this study, 20 impressions were fabricated for each Vinyl siloxane ether (Identium), condensation silicone (Speedex), and a...

Skeletal Class III malocclusion is a complex malformation with prevalence of 81.6% in Airlangga University Dental Hospital, distributed patients aged 15-45 years old. Camouflage treatment skeletal improves prognosis mild-to-moderate shift.This study aimed to discuss orthodontic camouflage as an option for adult malocclusion,emphasizing its indications, implications, and expected results.This re...

Background: Comparatively evaluate the accuracy of two different implant impression techniques. Materials & methods: For present study, reference models used were an edentulous mandibular cast with four analogues in anterior region and a metallic insert posterior. Two techniques studied as followed: Group 1: Polyvinyl siloxane impressions (putty light body) using stock metal tray, 2: Polyet...

Background: Complete dentures can improve the quality of life edentulous patients. The selection a suitable articulator and an impression technique is important to construct stable retentive complete denture with good occlusion. use semiadjustable ensures that be constructed such their movement closely resembles patient’s physiological movements. effective suction method ensure development bord...
