The document provides an overview of prosthodontics, detailing the history and development of dentures, including various types of prostheses. It outlines the definitions relevant to the field, reasons for tooth loss, sequelae of tooth loss, and treatment options such as implants and dentures. Additionally, it discusses the objectives of complete dentures and the process of constructing them, along with the effects of tooth loss on jaw structure and masticatory loads.
Complete denture - Introduction to Prosthodontics
- 1. Introduction to Prosthodontics Rola M. Shadid, BDS, MSc,
- 2. History of false teeth • Replacements of lost teeth have been produced for thousands of years • 1st dentures were 700 BC from ivory & bone • Silver, gold, mother of pearl • In 1774, dentures made from porcelain • The real breakthrough came when vulcanized rubber was discovered
- 3. History of false teeth • The discovery of acrylic resin is the next major revolution in prosthodontics • Another important milestone in tooth replacement was the introduction of implants.
- 4. Definitions • Prosthetics: Replacements for missing parts of the human body. • Prosthodontics: The branch of dentistry pertaining to the restoration and maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of the patient • Prosthesis: An artificial replacement of absent part of human body
- 5. Definitions • Dentulous: An individual who has his/her natural teeth present. • Edentulous: The individual who has lost his/her natural teeth. • Depending on the number of teeth missing they may be partially or completely edentulous.
- 6. Branches of Prosthodontics 1. Fixed prosthodontics 2. Removable prosthodontics a) complete denture prosthodontics b) partial denture prosthodontics 3. Implant prosthodontics 4. Maxillofacial prosthetics
- 7. Types of Prostheses • Denture: A prosthesis which replaces the one or more teeth and related structures in the mouth. Partial, complete, fixed or removable. • Partial denture: A dental prosthesis which restores part not all of the dentition. • Fixed partial denture: luted or securely retained to natural teeth, roots, or dental implants. The patient cant remove from the mouth.
- 8. Types of Prostheses • Removable partial denture: Any prosthesis that replaces the teeth in a partially dentate arch. The patient can remove it from the mouth. • Complete denture: A removable dental prosthesis that replaces the entire dentition and associated structures of the maxilla and mandible.
- 9. Reasons for tooth loss • Traumatic injuries • Caries • Periodontal diseases • Cysts, malignancies and tumors • Radiation therapy for tumors • Grossly malaligned teeth • Iatrogenic extraction • Congenitally missing teeth • Failure to erupt (impacted teeth)
- 10. Sequelae of tooth loss • Resorption: The socket gradually remodels until it assumes the shape of the rounded edentulous ridge. • Tilting • Drifting • Occlusal disharmony leads to discomfort, pain, or damage to temporomandibular joints.
- 11. Sequelae of tooth loss
- 12. Treatment Options • Preservation and prevention • Post and core/crowns
- 14. Treatment options Fixed partial dentures
- 15. Treatment options • Cast Removable partial dentures
- 17. Treatment options • Complete denture
- 18. Treatment options • Implant retained denture
- 19. Treatment options • Maxillofacial prostheses Make prosthetic replacements of other areas of the mouth and face lost by disease and trauma
- 20. Treatment objectives of CD • Patient education • Restoration of esthetics • Improvement of mastication • Improvement of speech • Preservation of remaining oral structures
- 21. Treatment objectives of CD • Maintenance of the health and comfort of the mouth • Maintenance of the health of the TMJ • General physical and psychological well being of the patient.
- 22. The residual alveolar ridges Following loss or extraction of teeth: o The empty socket fills with clot and gradually replaced with new bone o The bone around the socket reorganizes o The mucoperiosteum gradually heals & covers the healing socket o The remodelling process results in a rounded ridge like structure known as the residual alveolar ridge ( RAR)
- 23. • The RAR plays a very important role in the construction of the CD
- 24. Six orders of residual ridge form • Order I Preextraction • Order II Postextraction • Order III High, well rounded • Order IV Knife edge • Order V Low, well rounded • Order VI Depressed
- 25. Six orders of residual ridge form
- 26. Rate of resorption • Most rapid in the first 1 year after extraction and can be as high as 4.5 mm / year. • After healing of residual ridge, annual rate of reduction in height is about 0.1-0.2 mm in mandible • Annual rate of reduction in height is about 4X greater in mandible than in maxilla.
- 27. Pattern of resorption Maxilla The resorption is upwards and inwards (smaller) Mandible The resorption is downward and outward (wider)
- 28. Masticatory loads • Significantly lower than that produced by natural teeth • Natural teeth can produce forces up to 175 pounds but usually 40 to 50 pounds • Denture wearers: the average force was in the region of 22-24 pounds in the molar-bicuspid region
- 29. Masticatory loads CD wearers are able to generate forces that are only 10-15% of those with natural teeth
- 31. Diagnosis and Treatment Plan
- 32. Tissue Condition Improve Tissue Health
- 36. Make Custom Trays More Accurate Impressions
- 37. Border Mold Accurate Registration of Peripheries for Retention
- 38. Remove Tray Spacer and Load Impression Material
- 40. Box Impression Stronger cast with peripheries for processing
- 42. Record Bases and Occlusion Rims For Making Jaw Relationship Records
- 43. Facebow Record Relates Maxilla to Transverse Hinge Axis
- 44. Mount Maxillary Cast Same Relationship to Transverse Hinge Axis
- 45. Determine Occlusal Vertical Dimension Facial Height/Separation of Dentures
- 46. Centric Relation Registration Ant/Post & Mediolateral Relationships
- 47. Mount Mandibular Cast on Articulator
- 48. Set Anterior and Posterior Teeth in Wax Ability to Visualize and Change Appearance
- 49. Finalize Waxup
- 50. Remove Denture from Articulator Flask for Processing
- 51. Flask Waxup
- 52. Boil Out Wax and Remove Record Bases Teeth Trapped in Stone
- 53. Pack Acrylic Resin Hydraulic Pressure or Injection
- 54. Remount and Adjust for Processing Errors
- 56. Remove From Cast Finish and Polish
- 57. Remount & Adjust Occlusion
