Effect Of Different Digital Technology On The Adaptation And Retention Of Co-Cr Partial Denture Frameworks, Islam Heiba

Dentistry

Purpose: To evaluate the overall adaptation and retention of class I cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) removable partial denture (RPD) frameworks using three different computeraided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technologies: Indirect wax milling with lost wax technique (LWT), direct milling, and selective laser melting (SLM) technique. Materials and Methods: An educational maxillary stone model (Kennedy class I) was scanned after preparing rest seats to create a resin model. The resin model was scanned, and the RPD framework was digitally designed and saved as a standard tessellation language (STL) file. Twenty-four Co-Cr RPD frameworks were then constructed and divided into three groups (n …

Accuracy And Surface Roughness Of Co-Cr Partial Denture Frameworks With Different Digital Fabrication Methods, Islam Heiba

Dentistry

Statement of problem. Traditional removable partial denture (RPD) manufacture is being phased out in favor of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) techniques and rapid prototyping (RP), which provide more efficient methods of producing RPD frameworks. However, studies comparing the accuracy and surface roughness of these approaches on RPD frameworks are still scarce. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the accuracy and surface roughness of class I cobalt chromium (Co-Cr) removable partial denture frameworks digitally constructed using 2 different CAD-CAM technologies: direct milling (DM) and selective laser melting (SLM). Material and methods. An educational maxillary …

The Effect Of Die Material On The Crown Fracture Strength Of Zirconia Crowns, Akram Sayed Ahmed, Nathaniel C. Lawson, Chin-Chuan Fu, Pranit V. Bora, Edwin Kee, Amir H. Nejat

School of Dentistry Faculty Publications

BACKGROUND: Determination of the eligibility of several tooth analog materials for use in crown fracture testing. METHODS: A standardized premolar crown preparation was replicated into three types of resin dies (C&B, low modulus 3D printed resin; OnX, high modulus 3D printed resin composite; and highest modulus milled resin composite). 0.8 mm zirconia crowns were bonded to the dies and the maximum fracture load of the crowns was tested. Twelve extracted human premolars were prepared to a standardized crown preparation, and duplicate dies of the prepared teeth were 3D printed out of C&B. Zirconia crowns were bonded to both the dies …

Assessment Of The Effect Of Two Different Digital Fabrication Techniques On Marginal And Internal Fit Of Interim Fixed Dental Prothesis, Mohamed A. Shalaby, Mennatallah M. Wahba, Hisham I. Al-Ansari, Ahmed N. Mohamed

Future Dental Journal

Aim: The aim of that study was to evaluate the marginal and internal fit of a 3-unit, and 6-unit interim fixed dental prosthesis manufactured through milling and 3D printing technologies. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight interim fixed dental prostheses (FDP) were equally divided into two groups according to the fabrication technique. In group (MT), specimens were fabricated through milling technology while in group (PT), specimens were obtained by 3D printing. Each group was subdivided equally according to the FDP span length into 3-unit FDP (SFDP), and 6-unit FDP (LFDP). Marginal and internal fit were measured through the superimposition of the digital …

Retention Of Rapid Prototyped Complete Dentures Using Two Different Types Liquid Resin, Lina Khalaf Ismail, Mohammed Farouk Abdullah, Mohammed Mahmoud Dohiem

Future Dental Journal

Objectives: Comparing the retention of upper complete denture manufactured using two different denture base materials, both of them were manufactured using rapid prototyping method.

Methods: Nineteen patients were selected. For both groups, the dentures were manufactured using Rapid prototyping method following the next steps, a preliminary impression was made & trial denture bases were constructed on the primary casts for the upper & lower arches for a jaw relation record. A facebow record was used to mount the upper cast, while the lower cast was mounted using a centric relation record. Setting of artificial teeth was performed, then the denture …
