A study was conducted to compare tissue displacement resulting from different techniques and impression materials for distal-extension ridges. Impression techniques used were Applegate's functional fluid wax and a single-impression technique with mercaptan rubber. A mucostatic impression technique using irreversible hydrocolloid served as control. The results showed a statistically significant ...

The purpose of this retrospective study was to clinically evaluate the benefits of adopting a full digital workflow for the implementation of fixed prosthetic restorations on natural teeth. To evaluate the effectiveness of these protocols, treatment plans were drawn up for 15 patients requiring rehabilitation of one or more natural teeth. All the dental impressions were taken using a Planmeca P...

Nanomaterials have been studied in many products such as drug delivery, impression materials, restorative materials, dental implants, sensors, dental devices, and a widespread nanoparticles’ research has been done on various aspects of prosthetic dentistry. In dental materials, the nanoparticles are widely used in denture base materials, ceramics, implants, luting cements, and impression materi...
