Although digital removable partial dentures have been previously described, there no reports on how to fabricate them in one piece. This study proposes a new method for fabricating patient-specific using custom plate.First, gypsum model was scanned laboratory scanner and denture designed computer-aided design (CAD) software based standard tessellation language data. The metal clasp fabricated from Ti-6Al-4V 3D printer. For plate fabrication, resin frame An artificial tooth were fixed the...
Gum chewing has been found to improve oral function. Nevertheless, few randomized controlled trials have investigated the effects of gum-chewing exercises on function in older adults. This study aimed examine effect was a single-blind, trial, conducted from November 2021 January 2022. A total 130 participants were divided randomly into intervention and control groups.

This study aimed to predict the positional coordinates of incisor points from scan data conventional complete dentures and verify their accuracy.
No specific methods have been officially proposed for the prevention and improvement of oral hypofunction. Therefore, in this randomized controlled trial, we aimed to develop a gum-chewing training program determine its effects older adults. A total 218 adults, aged 65-85 years, were randomly allocated intervention or control groups.
