“…The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) acts as a crucial interface in the biomechanics of mastication, which is directly influenced by the occlusal dynamics introduced by dentures [49]. In a systematic review, Nimonkar et al [50] critically examine five peer-reviewed articles selected based on temporomandibular disease and removable dentures. These articles suggest that complete dentures, particularly when carefully designed to restore the vertical dimension and proper occlusal relationships, can significantly alleviate TMD symptoms in edentulous patients.…”

“…The discussions within the review emphasize the necessity for well-fabricated dentures and highlight that while current studies support the benefits of dentures in TMD management, further high-quality randomized clinical trials are required to solidify these findings and optimize treatment protocols. This review provides a foundational perspective on the intersection of prosthodontics and temporomandibular health, pointing towards a nuanced understanding of the biomechanical and rehabilitative interactions facilitated by complete dentures in managing TMDs [49][50][51].…”

This manuscript introduces a novel two-step technique for fabricating mobile dentures post-extraction to streamline prosthodontic rehabilitation. The study utilizes various materials, including dental polymers, metals, ceramics, and composite materials, each chosen for their unique properties that contribute to the final prosthesis’s functionality, durability, and esthetics. The detailed procedure involves an initial occlusal registration immediately following tooth extraction, capturing precise occlusal relationships and a comprehensive dental impression. This approach reduces clinical visits and leverages optimal alveolar ridge morphology. The expected results highlight the efficiency of the technique, reducing treatment time without compromising quality and potentially improving patient satisfaction and prosthodontic outcomes. This innovative method conclusively promises rapid, efficient, and patient-centered dental rehabilitation, emphasizing the need for future research to validate its effectiveness and explore long-term outcomes.

“…The findings showed that individuals were happy when their smiles displayed all of their teeth and some gingiva, but they were unhappy when their smiles displayed an unbalanced amount of gingiva [ 38 ]. According to surveys on how buccal corridors are perceived during smiles, orthodontists and prosthodontists greatly value smiles with them, in contrast to laypeople who think smiles with and without them are similar [ 39 ]. One intriguing study found that orthodontic specialists were more receptive to gummy smiles than dentistry students [ 40 ].…”

Introduction: The mouth and teeth are vital in facial aesthetics and the face as a whole is the most critical individual component determining one's physical look. As dentists, we need to be aware that this might significantly alter the care given to a patient since the patient's and the dentist's ideas of beauty may be quite different. This study sought to ascertain how the general public, general dental specialists, and orthodontics all rated the attractiveness of patients who had received orthodontic treatment using a visual scale, as well as how the facial reference could be used to gauge the improvement in smiles.Methodology: The attractiveness of 80 continuously treated patients was assessed by comparing their preand post-treatment posed grin images. The attractiveness of participants' smiles was evaluated using the Visual Simple Scale, which measures affect, and the Graph of Facial Stylish Reference, which measures objectively. "Making a Jazzy Face Chart" -The analysts were able to fairly evaluate changes in elements such as the symmetry of the smile twist, the position of the gingival peak of the front teeth relative to each other, the height of the incisal edges of the front teeth, the width of the connector band of the front six teeth, and the general tip of the front teeth by referring to photographs taken during treatment. We put the Visual Basic Scale to the test by having five male orthodontists, five male general dental specialists, and five male laypeople rate how much of an improvement they noticed between the before and after photos of a patient's smile.Results: According to the findings of the first section of the research, orthodontic treatment generally leads to an increase in all indicators. Some instances, however, demonstrated worsening in characteristics such as grin arc consonance, gingival zenith location relative to each other, and incisal edge height. The second half of this research revealed that the opinions of orthodontic specialists, general dentists, and the general public varied with regard to the beauty of a smile. Conclusion:Based on this research, we can say the following: Orthodontic treatment led to improvements in many of the variables that contribute to smile attractiveness, factors include the interproximal width of contact area, the height of the incisal margins of the front teeth, and the location of the gingival zenith in relation to one another, to name a few. The results of this research support the idea that the aesthetics of the smile should be assessed at the last stages of orthodontic treatment when fine adjustments are being made.
