  • Title: Fully digital workflow for reinforced mandibular implant overdenture - A novel method.
    Author: El Aziz MSA, El Megid Tella EAESA.
    Journal: J Indian Prosthodont Soc; 2022; 22(2):205-209. PubMed ID: 36511033.
    Abstract:
    Mandibular overdenture is suspected to fracture, especially in the midline and anterior region due to low surface area of coverage and minimum acrylic thickness in addition to attachments pickup holes that weakens the denture. Dentures used to be conventionally reinforced with metal meshwork which cannot be done in a digital workflow. This in vitro report introduces a novel approach of digital overdenture reinforcement using computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing, and rapid prototyping technologies. This novel approach provided digital reinforced, stable, and well-adapted overdenture with accurate and easy attachment pickup. Digital reinforced denture has fewer clinical steps with fewer laboratory complications. The newly developed overdenture fabrication techniques have the ability to change the conventional clinical and laboratory workflow from analog to digital. Which grantee standardization of the outcome on both research and clinical work.
