Abstract

The prevalence of partial edentulism in adults underscores the increasing demand for tooth replacement options. Fixed partial dentures (FPDs) are widely accepted for this purpose. FPD success hinges on factors such as abutment condition, retainer, connector type, pontic design, and edentulous span. A five-unit fixed bridge with a pier abutment requires a non-rigid connector to enhance prosthetic longevity. Moreover, narrowed spaces require more attention. Analysis and diagnostic wax-up are needed for treatment planning. This case presenting the management of a five-unit semirigid fixed bridge with a non-vital pier abutment and narrow space using diagnostic wax-ups. A 62-year-old woman presented with a missing right mandibular first premolar and first molar, with the right mandibular canine and second molar serving as terminal abutments, and a non-vital second premolar serving as a pier abutment. The space between the canine and non-vital second premolar is narrower than normal. Analysis and diagnostic wax-up were done to ensure the space is enough and to avoid excessive reduction, mainly the canine, as it is a vital tooth. The non-vital pier abutment, which has been endodontically treated before, was strengthened with a fiber post. Continued with tooth preparation and fabrication of a five-unit porcelain fused to metal semi-rigid fixed bridge. The design of FPD plays an important role in the success of FPDs. The edentulous span and non-vital pier abutments require more attention; also, non-rigid connectors act as stress breakers to maintain the longevity of all components of FPDs. Keywords: fixed partial denture, non-rigid connector, pier abutment, non-vital abutment

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

The eyes are a vital component of facial esthetics and expression. Ocular defects can have a significant psychological impact on patients. An ocular prosthesis is an artificial maxillofacial prosthesis used to restore the appearance of a missing eye. It can be customized to replicate the patient’s natural eye in terms of color, shape, size, and movement, resulting in a realistic and natural-looking outcome. The objective of this case report is to explain the procedural steps involved in the fabrication of a custom ocular prosthesis, employing an impression technique using a custom tray and incorporationg the iris button technique. A 36 years old female patient came to RSGM Padjadjaran University to fabricate a new eye prosthesis. The patient had a prior medical history of a severe ocular infection, which necessitated enucleation surgery. The ocular prosthesis was fabricated using an impression technique with a custom tray, employing a physiological impression method to capture the deep regions of the superior palpebral socket. The sclera, iris, and pupil were fabricated using the iris button technique. Custom ocular prostheses incorporating physiological impression technique and iris button technique offer ocular prosthesis with good stability and more natural appearance. Keywords: custom ocular prosthesis, physiologic impression, iris button

Abstract

Absolute glaucoma is a progressive condition that causes irreversible optic nerve damage from elevated intraocular pressure. When it no longer responds to treatment, patients may develop severe pain and complete vision loss, making enucleation the final option for relief. After enucleation, prosthetic rehabilitation is essential to restore facial appearance, improve function, and support psychological well-being. This case report outlines the clinical course and prosthetic management of an anophthalmic socket after enucleation for absolute glaucoma, highlighting key fabrication steps and the importance of structured follow-up care. A 23-year-old male with worsening, treatment-resistant glaucoma experienced persistent pain, scleral redness, and complete vision loss, leading to enucleation in 2018. His first prosthesis loosened after two years, and recurrent socket bleeding in 2023 necessitated an additional surgery. A new custom prosthesis was fabricated using a polyvinyl siloxane impression, followed by wax try-ins and precise iris–pupil positioning with callipers and a PD ruler. Acrylic painting was applied to create a natural ocular appearance. After insertion, the prosthesis was evaluated for comfort, stability, and esthetics, with follow-ups at one day, one week, and six months. This case highlights the value of personalized prosthetic design and consistent aftercare in achieving optimal outcomes for patients with anophthalmic sockets.

Abstract

Aggressive Periodontitis (AgP) frequently precipitates premature, multi-unit tooth loss in young adults, imposing substantial esthetic and psychological burdens. While the immediate provision of a prosthesis is critical to preclude the damaging edentulous phase and sustain patient confidence, conventional impression techniques inherently pose a significant risk of iatrogenic trauma to the remaining, often highly mobile, fragile abutments. This report details a hybrid digital-conventional protocol designed to maximize clinical safety and esthetic predictability during immediate removable partial denture (IRPD) delivery amidst fragile abutments. A 35-year-old female diagnosed with generalized AgP necessitated the extraction of eleven teeth, with only periodontally sound canines and premolars retained. Intraoral scanning technology was strategically utilized for anatomical data acquisition, successfully mitigating the risk of inadvertent dislodgment of the mobile abutments. The resulting digital data facilitated a precise pre-extraction simulation of the final ridge contour and esthetic try-in, guiding the subsequent conventional laboratory fabrication. An acrylic IRPD was delivered immediately post-extraction, successfully resolving the pre-existing diastema and restoring patient function. The strategic integration of intraoral scanning into a conventional IRPD workflow offers a cost-effective, clinically safe, and highly predictable solution for managing complex immediate prosthetic cases involving limited and compromised supporting structures, thereby enhancing treatment outcomes.

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

Background: Maxillectomy, whether total or partial, results in significant anatomical and functional disturbances, including oronasal communication, impaired mastication, speech difficulty, and esthetic disfigurement. These sequelae can severely affect a patient’s nutritional status, social interaction, and psychological well‑being. Rehabilitation following maxillectomy aims to restore oral function and improve quality of life through obturator prostheses that close the surgical defect Objective: This case report aims to present the clinical management for hemi-maxillectomy Case Report : This report presents the case of a 76-year-old female, a housewife, who was referred to the Prosthodontic Clinic of RSKGMP Universitas Airlangga by an Oncology Surgeon for the fabrication of an obturator. The patient presented two weeks after hemi-maxillectomy surgery performed on. The patient complained of oronasal communication, hyper nasal speech, and difficulties in mastication and swallowing postoperatively; she had no previous experience using any obturator prosthesis. An interim acrylic obturator was planned to restore oral-nasal separation, improve speech intelligibility and swallowing function, and support psychological adaptation during the healing phase. Clinical procedures included impression-taking of the maxillary defect, jaw relation recording, tooth arrangement, and fabrication of an acrylic obturator supported by the remaining teeth. Follow-up evaluations demonstrated marked improvement in speech resonance, masticatory efficiency, deglutition, and patient comfort, with gradual adaptation to the prosthesis. Conclusion: This case report highlights the importance of timely interim obturator rehabilitation in elderly post-hemi‑maxillectomy patients to restore function, improve quality of life, and reduce psychological distress.

Abstract

Background: Denture base acrylic resin properties is susceptible to bacteria colonization which further induce post insertion problems. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial effect of Cinnamomum burmanii extract against Staphylococcus aureus on heat-cured acrylic resin denture base material. Materials and method: An in vitro post-test only control group design was used with 28 acrylic resin plates (9x9x3 mm) contaminated with S. aureus (0.5 McFarland). Samples were randomly divided into seven groups (n=4): positive control (0.2% chlorhexidine), negative control (aquades), and five treatment groups immersed in C. burmanii extract at concentrations of 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%, 3.125%, and 1.56%. Immersion was performed for 8 hours, after which bacterial colony counts were determined using the Total Plate Count method. Results: Phytochemical screening of the extract showed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and triterpenoids. All concentrations of C. burmanii extract reduced S. aureus colonies compared to the negative control, with a significant overall difference among groups. The 25% concentration demonstrated the lowest mean colony count and showed an antibacterial effect approaching that of 02% chlorhexidine. Conclusion: These findings suggest that C. burmanii extract, particularly at 25% concentration, has potential as a natural denture cleanser alternatives for reducing S. aureus colonization on acrylic resin bases.

Abstract

Background: Complete denture fractures are a common complication in edentulous patients, mainly due to a combination of anatomical, biomechanical, material, and technical factors. This condition affects masticatory function, comfort, and quality of life in elderly patients, who are the largest users of dentures. Purpose: This article aims is to review the epidemiology, etiology and contributing factors, and management of complete denture fractures. Review Summary: Various studies show that fractures most often occur within first two to four years of the denture age, especially in the mandible and midline area due to flexural fatigue. The main causes include poor fit, unbalanced occlusion, fall trauma, and material defects such as porosity or an overly thin base. Repairs can be made using autopolymerizing resin, heat-cured resin, microwave polymerization, or visible light-cured resin, with reinforcement techniques such as E-glass fiber reinforcement, which has been shown to increase denture strength. Prevention focuses on proper design, good stress distribution, occlusal balance, and regular monitoring. Conclusion: A clear understanding of the etiology and fracture patterns is essential to improving clinical outcomes in denture fracture management. Strengthening clinical protocols through better diagnostic awareness and preventive strategies can help reduce the overall risk of denture fractures.
