Introduction: The purpose of beading & boxing of an impression is to obtain an accurate cast with proper border & base thickness for fabrication of restorations. Beading is the protection of the formed border thickness of the final impressions & Boxing of an impression is building up vertical walls around it. Aim: The purpose of this hybrid technique of beading and boxing is to produce a smooth...

human beings have a consistent interest in understanding the others’ impression management for them. in other words, human likes to know how others evaluate them, and what impression they make in others’ views. in this process, people try to seek for the others’ reactions or their own thoughts and visions in others’ minds; and even to make their views positive. this process is called impression...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of mandibular residual ridge shape on the masticatory ability in complete denture wearers. METHODS The subject group consisted of 199 complete denture wearers. The mandibular residual ridge of each subject was evaluated using a replica of the ridge which was obtained with heavy-body silicone impression material. The basal area...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to analyze the shapes of lingual polished surfaces in lower complete dentures formed by polished surface impressions and to provide reference data for use when manufacturing edentulous trays and lower complete dentures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six patients with mandibular edentulism were studied. After lower wax dentures were fabricated, wax was removed ...

PURPOSE The most suitable treatment conditions and timing for medically unstable patients with severe systemic diseases about to undergo invasive dental treatment are well documented in the literature; however, no medical guides or recommendations identify these conditions for noninvasive dental treatments in such patients. The aim of this clinical study was to determine the effect of impressio...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of implant position transfer and surface detail reproduction using two impression techniques and materials. materials and methods: a metal model with two implants and three grooves of 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 mm in depth on the flat superior surface of a die was fabricated. ten regular-body polyether (pe) and 10 regular-body polyvinyl...

making impression to obtain an accurate working cast needs to use accurate impression materials such as polyether. on the other hand, polyether cannot be used easily in places with undercut such as excessive interproximal spaces and under the pontics of fixed partial dentures as it may be locked in these free spaces. in this article, a method is presented to blockout interproximal spaces in ord...

The present study was undertaken to assess the accuracy, precision and validity of hydrophilic Vinyl Poly Siloxane [VPS] impression material for bite mark documentation and analysis. Medium body VPS impressions of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth among thirty subjects were taken and dental stone casts prepared. Hollow volume overlays were made and metric analysis was done using advanced ...

purpose: the purpose of this research was to determine the prevalence of mandibular first premolar teeth with 2 canals in the population of kerman. methods & materials: a total of 280 extracted first premolar teeth were collected from several health service centers within the province of kerman.extracted teeth were stored in 10% formalin containers. each tooth was initially cleaned with water a...

introduction: reconstruction of the oral cavity witha flap design containing the buccal mucosa and buccinator muscle but excluding the facial artery and vein is the topic of these case reports. case reports: this article uses random pattern vertically oriented partial thickness buccinator myomucosal flap for intraoral reconstruction in two cases. the first was for lining the mandibular anterior...
