Abstract

The success of denture treatment depends on the preservation of the remaining alveolar ridge. Preservation of the remaining na-tural teeth can assist in maintaining the integrity of alveolar ridge and proprioceptive ability of the periodontium. The main fo-cus in dentistry today is the maintenance of teeth and the periodontium. This case reports on the rehabilitation of a Cu-sil den-ture in the maxilla. A 70-year-old male patient wants to have denture because he wants to be able to eat and improve his appear-ance. The patient wants to preserve his remaining teeth as much as possible. It is concluded that Cu-sil denture can be an al-ternative treatment for patients who want to replace missing teeth while maintaining the remaining teeth.

Abstract

The aging process causes changes in the anatomical structures of the oral cavity and pharynx that are closely re-lated to the ability to chew and swallow. The use of a complete denture may prevent this to happen, but a lower mastication pressure is visible in complete dentures compared to natural teeth. This may have an impact on swal-lowing ability. In general, a complete denture improves the swallowing process and prevents oral cavity and pha-rynx changes. Several factors, such as denture thickness, the interaction of oral musculatures with the denture, and occlusal contacts will affect the effectiveness of the swallowing process. A proper and stable denture will improve the pharyngeal movement involved in swallowing, thus avoiding airway obstructions. It is concluded that the use of a proper complete denture is important as all four phases of the normal swallowing process are affected by the den-ture. Untreated edentulous jaws may cause oropharyngeal expansion which increases the risk of food bolus pene-tration into the hypopharynx and ultimately delay the pharyngeal swallowing process

Abstract

The increased use of removable denture in elderly population are followed by the increased use of soft liner for denture reline due to bone resorption. However, soft liners are found to be bonded poorly to polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base. Thus, several methods are developed in order to improve the bonds between denture base and soft liner, i.e., mechanical methods (sandblast, sandpaper, laser), chemical methods (MMA monomer, acids, acetone, and plasma), or combination of both. This article evaluates the effectiveness of various surface treatment methods of PMMA materials in improving the bonds with silicone or acrylic-based soft liner. It is concluded that surface treat-ment on the PMMA in general increase the bond strength with the soft liners compared to the control group; the use of Er:YAG laser and MMA monomer show the highest bond strength between the PMMA and soft liner materials. Several factors such as the duration of treatment and the laser intensity energy may affect the bond strength bet-ween PMMA and soft liner. Acrylic-based soft liner in general shows better bond strength than silicone-based soft liner, nevertheless both materials show improvement in bond strength with PMMA after surface treatments.

Abstract

Methamphetamine abuse has severe consequences on oral health, commonly leading to rampant caries, advanced periodontal disease, and early tooth loss. These patients frequently become edentulous at a relatively young age. In such cases, a bare root overdenture can be an effective treatment option. This report aims to present the advantages of a bare root complete overdenture for a patient with a history of methamphetamine abuse. A 44-year-old male presented with multiple missing teeth in both arches and a history of non-prescription methamphetamine use for approximately 17 years, with abstinence over the past 7 years. This resulted in dry mouth and extensive tooth decay. Additionally, he had been a heavy smoker for the past 28 years. Clinical examination revealed the absence of teeth 18–16, 14–22, 26–28, 31–38, and 45–48. Radiographic analysis showed that the retained roots of teeth 23–25 and 42-44 were relatively long (9–12 mm) with no mobility. After recording tentative vertical dimension and evaluating the occlusal plane, teeth 15, 23–25, and 41–44 were found to be extruded by 4–6 mm. Tooth 15 and 41 were extracted due to poor prognosis. A bare root complete overdenture supported by abutment teeth 23–25 and 42–44 was selected due to severe tooth extrusion and limited interocclusal space. In this case, the bare root complete overdenture improved the retention, support, and stability of the prosthesis, enhancing the patient's quality of life. Oral hygiene improved after drug cessation, enhancing long-term prosthesis outcome.

Abstract

Background: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that disrupts control of body movement, which directly affects oral function, including adaptation to dentures. Motor symptoms such as tremors, bradykinesia, and rigidity, as well as non-motor manifestations such as cognitive impairment and depression, pose challenges in prosthodontic rehabilitation. Purpose: Prosthodontic management of single complete denture for an elderly patient with advanced stage Parkinson's disease, highlighting clinical challenges, care strategies, and the role of caregivers. Case: A 75-year-old female with diagnosis of Braak stage 6 Parkinson's disease have difficulty chewing due to complete tooth loss in the upper jaw and nearly total tooth loss in the lower jaw. The patient experienced motor limitations, medication-induced xerostomia, and difficulty understanding instructions. Management: Prosthodontic treatment consisted of fabricating conventional single complete dentures made of acrylic on the upper and lower jaws. Management of these limitations involved an individualized approach, simple denture design, modification of the tooth arrangement, and comprehensive education involving caregivers, this includes training in denture wearing and salivary gland massage to address lacks of saliva. Conclusion: Prosthodontic management in Parkinson's patients requires simple denture design, empathetic, as well as effective communication and education with both the patient and caregiver to achieve optimal oral rehabilitation. This can improve chewing function, comfort, and quality of life for patients. Keywords: Parkinson’s disease, single complete denture, motor Impairment.

Abstract

Introduction: Currently, every country in the world is experiencing a growing older adults population, both in number and proportion. The aging process in older adults is parallel to a decline in numerous physiological functions, including oral function. Older adults who encounter decreased oral function are likely to manifest symptoms such as impaired articulation, episodes of choking during eating, and an increase in the amount of food they cannot chew. Recent research reports that decreased oral function may affect brain function and trigger the onset of cognitive decline. This article review aims to explores the connections between oral function and cognitive function in older adults. Review: Today’s view of oral health is more than the number of teeth present and whether or not oral hygiene is sufficient but also includes the ability to perform functions such as mastication, tongue and lip motor skills, salivary secretion and swallowing. Decreased oral function has led to the concept of oral frailty which characterized by a gradual decline in oral functions such as chewing, swallowing, tongue pressure, and oral motor skills. Initially proposed by Tanaka, oral frailty is now recognized not merely as a dental issue but as a potential early marker of broader systemic decline, including cognitive impairment. Conclusion: Decreased oral function could also be causative factor for the onset of cognitive decline in older adults.
