background:  conventional treatments after complicated injuries of the distal radioulnar joint (druj) such as darrach and kapandji-sauvé procedures have many drawbacks, which may eventually lead to a painful unstable distal ulna.  the development of druj prosthesis has significantly evolved over the past years. in this study, we assessed the outcome results of patients after druj implant arthro...

Most digital prosthesis designs consider only the maximal intercuspal position (MIP) and not the lateral movement. During the computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD-CAM) prosthesis delivery process, the clinician has to adjust the prosthesis to avoid occlusal interference during lateral excursion. The novel digital workflow described in this report can be divided into 2 steps...

rapid prototyping (rp) is a technique of manufacturing parts by the additive layer manufacturing technology; where, a three-dimensional (3d) model created in a computer aided design (cad) system is sectioned into 2d profiles, which are further constructed by rp layer by layer. its use is not limited to industrial or engineering fields and has extended to the medical field for the manufacturing ...

This clinical report describes a fixed maxillary telescopic dental prosthesis (FTDP) employing milled base metal copings and a metal superstructure veneered with composite resin, for the restoration in a periodontally compromised patient with uncontrolled diabetes. The telescopic prosthesis framework design incorporated occlusal rest seats in key positions along the arch in case of future poste...

1269 We appreciate the interest of Siondalski et al. [1] and his group beside numerous other international groups in working on autologous aortic valve prosthesis. We experienced tremendous interest, especially in countries where patients need a priceless and reliable bioprosthesis without the need for anticoagulation and with advantageous hemodynamics especially in the smaller sizes. Siondalsk...
