Although computer-aided design and manufacture techniques have shown some promising applications in the fabrication of crowns, inlays, and maxillofacial and oral surgery, the field of removable prosthodontics has not embraced these technologies so far. This article describes the development and investigation of computer-aided techniques that may eventually enable prosthodontic procedures such a...

OBJECTIVE Distal extension removable partial denture is a prosthesis with lack of distal dental support with a 13-fold difference in resiliency between the mucosa and the periodontal ligament, resulting in leverage during compression forces. It may be potentially destructive to the abutments and the surrounding tissues. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of implant location on stres...

BACKGROUND Historically, the complete removable denture is the last prosthetic procedure to switch to digital techniques whose advantages are mainly observed in the laboratory stages; however, it is not possible to measure the depressibility of the oral mucosa using optical cameras, thus conventional impression techniques are still necessary. This article describes the clinical and laboratory p...

Since 1930, partial denture frameworks have been made from metallic alloys like cobalt-chromium [Co-Cr] and resin polymers such as Polymethylmethacrylate [PMMA]. However, the main limitation of these materials over last 15 years has related to aesthetics. The show a clasp not widely accepted. objectives this study are:- 1) To find material for removable dentures that aesthetic clasps 2) compare...
