Clinical outcomes and Complications of CAD-CAM Fabricated Complete Dentures; An update and review

Abstract

For decades, conventional complete dentures (CD) have been a promising treatment for edentulous patients. The introduction of digital technology in CD fabrication streamlines and simplifies the treatment process and offers new and specific applications for the completely edentulous patients. Computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufactured (CAD/CAM) CD protocols can improve efficiency and offer specific applications in specific situations to improve patient care, satisfaction, and convenience. The aim of this review is to assess and evaluate the clinical outcomes and complication of CAD/CAM fabricated CD systems and to provide information about currently available systems for dental practitioners.

Evaluation of Occlusal Pressure Pattern and Dimensional Changes of the Lined Dentures Subjected to Microwave Disinfection Protocol

“…Complete dentures have been used for many years as a successful line of treatment for edentulous patients. Denture disinfection became more important as the number of edentulous patients increases (1)(2)(3) . Soft denture liners are soft polymers that added to the conventional denture with patients who cannot tolerate conventional acrylic dentures.…”
