Fabrication Of Upper Complete Denture Combining Dental Base Materials To Cover Torus Palatinus - Case Report, Vlora Berisha Oct 2023

Fabrication Of Upper Complete Denture Combining Dental Base Materials To Cover Torus Palatinus - Case Report, Vlora Berisha

UBT International Conference

Torus palatinus provides a challenge when restoring an edentulous arch. Because the mucosa is often quite thin, tori may be sensitive to the pressure that comes from a denture basis. . A strong palatal seal is prevented by the tori's propensity for having deep undercuts that occasionally extend to the junction with the soft palate.

Case Report: A 70-year-old edentulous female came to our dental clinic, with a chief complaint of the instability of her maxillary complete dentures, and she requested new denture. The patient had been wearing the dentures for approximately 2 years. Based on the intraoral examination, the …

Marginal gap space in fixed restorations is responsible for micro-leakage and cement decomposition with caries appearance due to specific demineralization process by bacteria colonization. The aim of the study was to evaluate caries lesions in correlation to the crown marginal gap.

Material and methods: Marginal gap between the abutment tooth and the crown was measured using a light-body silicone for evaluating of absolute discrepancy with replica technique (RT). Twenty porcelain fused to metal crowns were fabricated on …


Influence Of The Post Space Preparation On The Rest Filling In Endodontically Treated Teeth, Valdet Iseini Oct 2021

Influence Of The Post Space Preparation On The Rest Filling In Endodontically Treated Teeth, Valdet Iseini

UBT International Conference

Endodontic treatment is usually indicated for teeth that are carious, severely damaged or fractured. In such teeth, making a post and a crown is indicated. Although the main purpose of the post is to strengthen the structure of the tooth and the possibility of extending the stump, it is equally important not to introduce reinfection into the canal during operation, but also to prevent the micropermeability of the remaining part of the canal filling. The post space preparation involves the removal of the gutta-percha and cementum from the coronary and middle thirds of the root canal, but it can often …
