Summary The aim of this study was to compare objective and subjective hardness selected common foods with a wax cube used as test item in mixing ability test. Objective determined for 11 (cream cheese, boiled fish paste, beef, apple, raw carrot, peanut, soft/hard rice cracker, jelly, plain chocolate chewing gum) the cube. Peak force (N) compress each obtained from force–time curves generated Tensipresser. Perceived ratings were made by 30 dentate subjects (mean age 26·9 years) using visual...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare Oral Health-Related Quality Life (OHRQoL), denture satisfaction, masticatory performance in edentulous patients provided with mandibular implant-supported overdentures (ISODs) retained telescopic attachments those conventional complete dentures (CCDs). Peri-implant soft tissue changes were also evaluated at various intervals during a 1-year observation period.Participating received new CCDs later two interforaminal implants had their...
Background The study’s objective is to assess the adherence of C. albicans in different types denture polymers and effectiveness eugenol commercialized cleansers removal . Three base (Lucitone ® 199 (High-Impact PMMA), Impact (conventional PMMA) Eclipse (UDMA)) two hard reline materials (Kooliner Tokuyama Rebase II Fast) were used this study. Methods hundred samples prepared (6 × 2 mm disc shape) divided into five groups ( n = 60) further subjected treatment (Polident , Steradent, distilled...
To develop a new digital method for color-mixing analysis and to evaluate the validity of this quantifying masticatory performance.Specimens red-green (RG) chewing gum were prepared as bicolor test food. A total 300 specimens masticated by 20 healthy volunteers different numbers mastication cycles (from 1 25). The boluses flattened scanned, images analyzed using ImageJ software. Two parameters (spatial value) color mixing measured, multiple regression was performed estimate number cycles....
Application of ozone is recommended for sterilisation in dental procedures.This study explored the antimicrobial effect 0.1 ppm ozonated-water on selected common oral commensals.Based deviation their growth curves pattern upon treatment, inhibitory was determined.SEM examination ozone-treated microbes recorded its possible morphological effect.Findings suggested a bacteriostatic action when were treated at early phase, while, it bactericidal during active phase cycle.Hence, suggesting...
Abstract Accuracy is a necessity in implant impressions to fabricate accurately fitting implant-supported prostheses. This vitro study aimed explore the impact of number scan bodies on scanning quality by comparing scans 2 versus 4 implants, and determine if their accuracy precision meets acceptable clinical threshold. Two mandibular edentulous models were used: one with 4-parallel implants (4-IM) other 2-parallel (2-IM). Each model was scanned ten times an intraoral scanner, while reference...
As a means to combat the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) global pandemic, educational institutes were forced stop accustomed face-to-face teaching methods and adopt an online scheme ensure continuity of education process. Furthermore, only minimal period clinical training was offered students during pandemic this highlighted critical need expand improve dental simulation curriculum. This article aims highlight impact COVID-19 on educators in schools. perspective paper will also discuss...
