“…The psychological states and moods of patients significantly affect both the treatment processes and patient satisfaction with the treatment results. [13][14][15] According to Berggren and Meynert, if an individual has a predisposition to anxiety, a vicious circle of fear, anxietyinduced avoidance of dental care, deterioration of dentition, and feelings of guilt, shame and inferiority can occur. 16 In anxiety disorders, the main cause of physical symptoms is thought to be the sympathetic nervous system stimulation.…”

Background. Illness, social isolation and loneliness may cause different psychological problems in the geriatric population, including depression and anxiety. Factors such as anxiety and fear can negatively affect dental treatment processes and prognoses. Thus, in terms of dental approach to geriatric individuals, it is important to be aware of the emotional processes the elderly may have experienced during the pandemic.Objectives. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the geriatric anxiety levels and the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) anxiety and fear levels in the geriatric population. Material and methods.In this correlational study, 129 geriatric individuals were selected through the convenience sampling method. To gather the data, the Geriatric Anxiety Scale (GAS), the COVID-19 Anxiety Scale (CAS), the COVID-19 Fear Scale (CFS), and a questionnaire assessing demographic variables were used. Simple linear regression and Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to evaluate the relationships between the variables.Results. The sample consisted of 70.5% males and 29.5% females aged ≥65 years. The GAS total score (15.64 ±9.34) and its 3 subscale scores were strongly correlated with the CAS and CFS scores. The GAS total score and its subscale scores had a significant linear regression with both the CAS and CFS scores (p < 0.001).Conclusions. An increase in the anxiety and fear levels associated with the pandemic was observed in geriatric individuals. Thus, it should be considered that geriatric individuals may encounter some difficulties during dental treatment and prosthetic rehabilitation after the pandemic. Therefore, it is important to normalize the anxiety levels with the help of professionals, and to implement interventions such as socialization, physical activity and meditation to help balance the anxiety levels.

“…A study conducted in Northern India revealed that between the ages of 43 and 53, 41.9% of females from rural areas and 48.2% urban females were partial edentulous while 58% of rural males and 51.7% urban males respectively were partially edentulous. 2 Acknowledging the financial constraints that individuals face, the acrylic partial dentures have been an economical and viable alternative to cast partial dentures in other countries too 3,4 .…”

Acrylic partial dentures are still the first line of treatment for the partially edentulous in many countries. Though there are many physiologic and functional techniques recommended to record the supporting form of edentulous distal extension areas, they may not be used in practice because of being cumbersome. Simplified impression techniques may increase the confidence of beginners in the treatment concept of acrylic partial dentures. A novel, simplified and economical impression technique that adheres to principles of RPD impression making is presented. A single tray was used to record the dentulous and edentulous area in a single step by using two impression materials.

Objectives To determine implant survival and success of four conventionally but initially asynchronously loaded implants in implant‐supported overdentures for the edentulous maxilla, in participants with opposing mandibular two‐implant overdentures. Material and methods Twenty‐six participants received four implants in the region of the maxillary canines and molars. After healing, 24 of these participants (mean age: 68.3 years) were randomly allocated to one of two treatment groups, and the adapted overdenture was attached to two unsplinted cylindrical attachments. The other two matrixes remained unattached to the implants for 3 months. After this period, the other two implants were loaded for 3 months (cross‐over design). Then, all four implants were loaded for another 3 months. Kaplan–Meier curves were used to evaluate survival and success of implants and dentures. Results During the active prosthetic study phase, three participants lost one implant. Two participants lost three implants during the recall period. Implant survival after loading was 93.8% after a mean observation period of 3.1 years. Denture survival was 100%, but denture success was 95.8%, due to major prosthetic complications. Most participants preferred four implants to two. Conclusions Within the limitations of the study, it can be concluded that maxillary implant overdentures on two or four implants are both recommendable treatment options. Two posterior implants are not superior to two anterior implants under overdentures retained by unsplinted cylindrical attachments. Implant and prosthetic complications and aftercare measures are common but are mostly easy to handle. However, 23 of the 24 participants preferred the 4‐implant maxillary overdenture.
