“…A soft lining is a compliant material placed between the hard denture and the oral mucosa in order to treat or avoid the development of local areas of soreness under dentures [1][2][3][4]. These materials ensure a more even distribution of the forces imposed during use, absorb energy and reduce the displacement of mucosa, thus improving the comfort of the patient.…”

This research was undertaken to develop a better understanding of the relationships among the compositions, structures and properties of denture soft liners. Five butadiene-styrene-acrylic elastomers were prepared. They were prepared using 50% of powdered prepolymerized butadiene-styrene polymer combined with 50% of a methacrylate monomer (HMA or EHMA) plus varying amounts of initiator and crosslinker. The mixtures were gelled and processed conventionally. Specimens were then corn mitted to dynamic mechanical analysis and water sorption. Dynamic mechanical analysis was performed over the temperature range 5-95 °C at the rate of 2.5 °C/rain using a Perkin Elmer DMA-7 with 3 mm flat tip probe at 1 Hz. Wet and dry values for storage modulus (E') and damping factor (tan 8) were determined at 37 °C. Water sorption of these butadiene styrene elastomer-acrylic systems from solutions of varying concentrations was measured in order to establish the role of osmotic pressure. Diffusion coefficient (De) was determined from the desorption values. The relatively lower values of Da observed in most highly concentrated solutions particularly 1 M sodium chloride and glucose may be interpreted as related to reduced water sorption from these solutions. Increasing crosslinking increased the modulus and decreased water sorption. Using hydrophobic EHMA instead of HMA reduced water uptake, reduced dry modulus and reduced the decrease in modulus caused by water sorption. Dynamic moduli and water sorption generally exceeded those of the commercial materials studied. For all experimental materials, water uptake from saline and glucose solutions confirmed that the diffusion process is osmotically driven.

“…Preoperative radiography and/or the use of a wax-up to adapt a surgical guide has been advocated to solve aesthetic problems, increase functional prosthetic efficacy, respect biomechanics, accommodate the prefabricated components, and facilitate decisions about the need for site developments. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] As a result of the refinement of this planning technique, it is now possible to create the final prosthesis before surgery, place the implants with a surgical guide that respects the prosthetic planning, and deliver the prosthesis at the end of the surgery. 17 The Brånemark Novum concept is a simplified protocol based on the use of prefabricated components.…”

BackgroundThe philosophy of a gradual transition to an implant retained prosthesis in cases of full-mouth or extensive rehabilitation usually involves a staged treatment concept. In this therapeutic approach, the placement of implants may sometimes be divided into phases. During a subsequent surgical phase of treatment, the pre-existing implants can serve as anchors for the surgical template. Those modified surgical templates help in the precise transferring of restorative information into the surgical field and guide the optimal three-dimensional implant positioning.MethodsThis article highlights the rationale of implant-retained surgical templates and illustrates them through the presentation of two clinical cases. The templates are duplicates of the provisional restorations and are secured to the existing implants through the utilization of implant mounts.ResultsThis template design in such staged procedures provided stability in the surgical field and enhanced the accuracy in implant positioning based upon the planned restoration, thus ensuring predictable treatment outcomes.ConclusionsSuccessful rehabilitation lies in the correct sequence of surgical and prosthetic procedures. Whenever a staged approach of implant placement is planned, the clinician can effectively use the initially placed implants as anchors for the surgical template during the second phase of implant surgery.
