Preservation of natural teeth is the current primary concern in dentistry. The presence of few teeth in the oral cavity aids in the preservation of alveolar ridge integrity, the maintenance of proprioception, and the patient's psychological well-being. A Cu-sil denture is a novel alternative treatment option for those who desire to replace their lost teeth while retaining their few remaining teeth. This case study describes an alternate procedure for making Cu-sil-like denture in the maxilla and traditional cast partial denture (CPD) in the mandibular arch.

Basically, complete denture success relies on the factors like stability, retention, function, support and esthetics. Mostly severely resorbed maxillary ridges are constricted and narrow and the inter-arch distance is increased due to which there is a decreased stability, support and retention. In this case the weight of the complete dentures compromises the factors further. This case report depicts a simplified technique for fabricating the lightweight hollow complete denture for balancing the factors influencing the denture and also preserves the supporting tissues and bone

Consideration of a fixed prostheses for replacing a single missing tooth can be accomplished by a traditional fixed partial denture or an implant crown or a fiber reinforced partial denture or an inlay retained fixed partial denture. The main drawback in a traditional fixed partial denture is the removal of a significant amount of tooth structure in order to replace the missing teeth which contradicts De Vans dictum. The more conservative approach to replacing a single missing tooth is either by a fiber reinforced composite bridge or an inlay retained fixed partial denture. New high strength ceramics, with their stiffness and high mechanical properties (i.e., resistance to fracture and/or fatigue), could be considered a right choice in an IRFDP (Inlay retained fixed partial denture) rehabilitation. This case report describes an IRFDP treatment using a CAD/CAM monolithic zirconia for replacing a single missing mandibular molar.

Background: Endodontically treated teeth should be properly restored to ensure longevity of the teeth. Many methods to restore ETT are reported in the literature. Endo crowns are a viable method of restoring ETT. There are no reports in the literature related to endo crowns fabricated with metal alloys and lab processed composite resins Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate in vitro, the fracture resistance of the endodontically treated teeth restored with Endo crowns fabricated using two different materials and luted with two different cements. Material and method: Forty freshly extracted maxillary premolars were used as specimens for this in-vitro study. The specimens were endodontically treated with access opening in a class-I configuration. These specimens were randomly divided into four groups: MG, MR, CG and CR. The specimens were mounted in self-cure acrylic resin and tested for load-to-failure using universal testing machine with cross head speed of 0.5mm/sec. Results: The data obtained were tabulated and statistically analyzed using one way ANOVA and Student ‘t’ test. The fracture pattern and failure modes were classified and analyzed with chi square test. The results of this study showed that the mean fracture load for group-MG is 2816.5N; group-MR is 2709N; group-CG is 679N; group-CR is 642.5N, with very high significant difference between metal and composite material and no significant difference between the luting agents among similar restorative material groups. Regarding the modes of failure, the maximum number of favorable fractures was observed in group-CG, group-CR and catastrophic failure among the metal endocrown groups. Conclusion: Endo crowns fabricated with metal and luted with Glass ionomer cement exhibited superior fracture resistance and hence can be considered as a restorative option for ETT.

Esthetics along with function is the two most common concerns of patients. The need for patient’s esthetical concern should also be given prime concern when restoring the function. In most instances there is a need for irreversible alteration in the remaining hard tissue during a prosthodontics treatment. Preservation of natural teeth is gaining importance in dentistry in the present time. Diagnostic wax up and proper treatment planning is an important tool to establish the desired esthetic changes, to know how the final prosthesis looks like and for better understanding of the patient. This is a case report on a simplified approach in preservation of teeth and alveolar ridge along with esthetical correction of smile made with a newer type of transitional denture. It helps in promoting positive mental attitude among the patients by avoiding extractions.

An accurate determination, recording and transfer of jaw relation records from patients to the articulator is essential for appropriate dental restoration function, facial appearance and maintenance of patient’s oral health.1 An unsatisfactory and inaccurate record of maxilla-mandibular relationship will eventually lead to failure of the restoration or prosthesis. Facebow plays an integral part of this maxilla-mandibular relationship transfer from the patient mouth to that of the articulator. The use of facebows is emphasized in prosthodontic textbooks and is widely taught in dental schools, but is still perceived as a complex procedure by most students.2 This article attempts to discuss the utilization of a cross beam laser level as a simple accessory to simplify face bow use and to obtain a repeatable and reliable patient head position while recording jaw relations using face bows. The laser cross beam also serves the purpose of improving the accuracy and speed of making face bow records.

Dentistry, as a specialty is thought to have begun around 3000 B.C. The study of dental history consistently reveals each age's indebtedness to its immediate and distant predecessors. Nowhere has this been more strikingly revealed than in the field of prosthetic dentistry, dependent as it has been upon material and mechanical development and invention. Dentistry like the allied arts and sciences took full advantage of mechanical developments of the last twenty centuries. During this period applied mechanics was recognized as an essential supplement to biological principles of dentistry. Dentistry got established as a science and industrial development had a definite impact on dentistry. This article thus explains in depth the development of impression trays and materials.
