Summary
The aim of this crossover clinical study was the evaluation and comparison of masticatory performance and patient satisfaction for patients rehabilitated with conventional heat cured acrylic resin and 3D printed mandibular implant overdentures retained with bar attachment. it was concluded that 3D printed implant overdenture showed promising results regarding chewing efficiency and patient satisfaction compared to conventionally fabricated implant overdenture.
Detailed description
The aim of this crossover clinical study was the evaluation and comparison of masticatory performance and patient satisfaction for patients rehabilitated with conventional heat cured acrylic resin and 3D printed mandibular implant overdentures retained with bar attachment. Materials and Methods: Twelve completely edentulous healthy participants received new conventional dentures. Four interforaminal implants were inserted in the mandible. After osseointegration, bar was constructed with trapezoidal configuration. Each patient received randomly the following overdentures using a crossover design: conventional heat cured acrylic resin overdenture, 3d printed overdenture ( developed by scanning of mandibular conventional overdenture). Masticatory performance was evaluated with the two-colour mixing ability test after 5, 10, 20, 30, and 50 masticatory cycles. Patient satisfaction was also measured using McGill Denture Satisfaction Questionnaire. Evaluation was done after 3 months of using each overdenture. Conclusion: Within this clinical study limitations, 3D printed implant overdenture showed promising results regarding chewing efficiency and patient satisfaction compared to conventionally fabricated implant overdenture.
