Detecting oral cancer in edentulous patients during denture fabrication by Prosthodontists.

Detection of potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) and oral cancer among completely edentulous patients by Prosthodontists is of interest. Hence, a thorough soft tissue examination was conducted at five key stages of denture fabrication on 500 edentulous patients. Information on tobacco and alcohol consumption was collected and biopsies were performed.

Comparative Evaluation of Implant Stability, Insertion Torque, and Implant Macrogeometry in Different Bone Densities Using Resonance Frequency Analysis.

Aim And Objective: Evaluation and comparison of insertion torque (IT) and the implant stability of two different implant macrogeometry in different bone densities using resonance frequency analysis.

Materials And Methods: A total of 48 implants (with two implant types having regular and novel macrogeometry) were classified into 4 groups with 12 samples in each group. Group A regular implant without surface treatment, group B regular implant with surface treating, group C novel implant deprived of surface treating, and group D was new dental implant with surface treatment were used.

An evaluation of tensile bond strength of soft liners bonded to different denture base resins.

Background: Clinically, adhesion failure is the most critical problem because of the failure of the optimal bond between denture base and the soft liner.

Objectives: This study was performed to assess the tensile bond strength of two temporary soft liners to different denture base resins.

Materials And Methods: Forty-eight blocks with 16 samples each of heat-cured denture base resin of three different types were fabricated from custom-made stainless steel die after de-waxing mold space.

Crestal bone loss around dental implants after implantation of Tricalcium phosphate and Platelet- Rich Plasma: A comparative study.

Background And Aims: Bone loss around dental implants is generally measured by monitoring changes in marginal bone level using radiographs. After the first year of implantation, an implant should have <0.2 mm annual loss of marginal bone level to satisfy the criteria of success.

Disinfectant Efficacy of 0.525% Sodium Hypochlorite and Epimax on Alginate Impression Material.

Aim: Species of Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, Actinomyces, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, and Candida are commonly seen in the oral cavity. Impression materials are commonly contaminated with microorganisms. The present study was conducted to assess the disinfection efficacy of Epimax and 0.

Long-term Retrospective Study based on Implant Success Rate in Patients with Risk Factor: 15-year Follow-up.

Aim: The purpose of this retrospective study is to assess implant success rates with various risk factors.

Materials And Methods: Two hundred patients with a total of 650 implants were selected. Risk factors, such as smoking, antidepressants, bruxism, diabetes, and bone augmentation procedures were considered, and patients were followed up for a period of 8 to 15 years.
