Details and patient eligibility

About

twenty patients received mandibular overdenture constructed by different construction techniques were classified equally and randomly into two groups peri implant bone loss was assessed by CBCT at baseline (T0), at1 year(T1), at 3 years(T3) and posterior ridge resorption was assessed by CBCT at baseline (T0), at 1 year( T1), at 3 years (T3). By superimposition of pre and post CBCT.

Full description

twenty patients received mandibular overdenture constructed by different construction techniques were classified equally and randomly into two groups (n = 10 per group): Group A: received milled mandibular overdenture opposed by maxillary complete denture. Group B: received 3D-printed mandibular overdenture opposed by maxillary acrylic complete denture. peri implant bone loss was assessed by CBCT at baseline (T0), at1 year(T1), at 3 years(T3) and posterior ridge resorption was assessed by CBCT at baseline (T0), at 1 year( T1), at 3 years (T3). By superimposition of pre and post CBCT.

Enrollment: 20 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 50 to 65 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• All patient wearing maxillary conventional denture.
• All patients had temporary mandibular overdenture supported by vertically inserted 4-implant at least six months ago.
• A Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) done to verify the accurate position and success of the inserted implant.
• They were healthy, free from any systemic diseases relating to bone resorption such as uncontrolled diabetics or osteoporosis. This was achieved through medical history and clinical examination by physician.
• At least 15 mm restorative space must be available (from the mucosa covering the crest of the residual ridge to proposed occlusal plane) to permit construction of all types of tested prosthesis (class I according to Ahuja and Cagna). This was detected by a tentative jaw relation.
• All patients are of angel's class I maxillo-mandibular relationships.

Exclusion criteria

• Patients had head and neck radiotherapy, patients with bleeding disorders or hepatic patients.
• Patients with metabolic disorders as diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis and hepatic disorders that might affect osseointegration.
• Long term immunosuppress and corticosteroid drug therapy.
• Patient with abnormal habits as clenching and bruxism.
• Smoking patient.
• Uncooperative patients.
• Neuromuscular diseases.
• Patient with problems in TMJ.

20 participants in 2 patient groups

milled mandibular overdenture opposed by maxillary complete denture

Active Comparator group

Description:

A denture base milled from a pre-polymerized block of polymethylmethacrylate (Ivobase CAD) along with milled denture teeth from a block of tooth coloured material PMMA (SR Vivodent CAD).

Treatment:

Other: posterior ridge resorption was assessed by CBCT

Radiation: peri implant bone loss was assessed by CBCT

3D-Printed mandibular overdenture

Active Comparator group

Description:

The printer (Rasdent 3d printer) was loaded with material of 3D-printed denture base and 3D- printed denture teeth (Dentca denture teeth shade A2). The mandibular denture teeth were printed as one unit then bonded to the lower printed denture base.

Treatment:

Other: posterior ridge resorption was assessed by CBCT

Radiation: peri implant bone loss was assessed by CBCT
