ABSTRACT

Objective: To reduce environmental biohazards, technicians should be educated with safe biological waste disposal procedures and dental material recycling. The present study assesses the retentive force, deformation test and XRD analysis of re-injection acetal resin clasps. Material and Methods: specimens were prepared for clasp retention test injection according to the manufacture's instruction for acetal resin. The first group represent control group with (100% New) and other five groups as experimental groups (group II (25% old +75% new), group III (50% old + 50%) new, and group IV (75% old + 25% new) with different percentages between new acetal materials and old acetal materials, while two last groups with several times (group V (100% old) and group VI (re-injection two times)) only used old acetal materials. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) device used to give structural information for the materials to be tested. The study data were analyzed via One-way ANOVA (LSD) at a significant P-value of (p≤0.05) and a confidence level of 95%. Results: After comparing the results, a significant improvement in the retentive force of acetal clasp specimens after re-injection two times there was found high mean value in group re-injection two times and lower mean value recorded in control group. In XRD patterns of there was no diffraction peak refers to crystal structure of acetal resin. Conclusion: the present study findings concluded that the recycling of acetal resin enhanced the retentive force of acetal clasp and not affected on the crystal structures of material(AU)

ABSTRACT

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the retention force of individual clasps made from polyamide, acetate resin and cobalt-chrome for removable partial dentures. Material and methods: Three groups of clasps were fabricated: Cr-Co ­ 10 conventional chrome-cobalt metal clasps; Ac ­ 10 clasps with reciprocal arms and occlusal rests in chrome-cobalt and retentive arms in acetate resin; and Poly - 10 clasps with reciprocal arms and occlusal rests in chrome-cobalt and retentive arms in polyamide resin. Through the tensile test, in a universal testing machine, the initial retention force of the specimens was obtained and then clasps were cycled 7200 times, immersed in artificial saliva (60 months of simulated clinical use). After cycling, tensile test was performed. Results: All groups presented a retention decrease after the cycling. Ac presented a large reduction in retentive force (61.43%), followed by Cr-Co (26.5%) and Poly (12.09%). Conclusions: Aesthetic clasps of polyamide can be used in clinical cases where the anterior supporting teeth will not be essential for good retention of the removable partial denture because this clasp showed to be more resistant than the acetate resin.

Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar e comparar a força de retenção de grampos individuais feitos de poliamida, resina de acetato e cromo-cobalto para próteses parciais removíveis. Material e Métodos: Três grupos de grampos foram fabricados: Cr-Co ­ 10 grampos metálicos convencionais de cromo-cobalto; Ac - 10 grampos com apoios e braço de oposição em cromocobalto e braços de retenção em resina de acetato; e Poly - 10 grampos com apoios e braço de oposição em cromo cobalto e braço de retenção em resina de poliamida. Por meio do teste de tração, em uma máquina de ensaio universal, a força de retenção inicial dos espécimes foi obtida e então, os grampos foram ciclados 7200 vezes, imersos em saliva artificial (60 meses de uso clínico simulado). Após a ciclagem, o teste de tração foi realizado. Resultados: Todos os grupos apresentaram diminuição da retenção após a ciclagem. Ac apresentou uma grande redução na força retentiva (61,43%), seguida por Cr-Co (26,5%) e Poly (12,09%). Conclusões: Grampos estéticos de poliamida podem ser usados em casos clínicos em que os dentes de suporte anteriores não serão essenciais para uma boa retenção da prótese parcial removível, pois esse grampo mostrouse mais resistente que os de resina de acetato (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a retenção do grampo de resina de acetato quando comparado ao grampo metálico. Material e métodos: Para isso, 10 grampos metálicos Co-Cr convencionais (Ackers) e 20 de resina de acetate foram confeccionados. Os grampos de resina de acetato foram constituídos por braços de oposição, suporte e retenção feitos de CoCr. Dos 20 grampos estéticos, 10 tiveram a espessura do braço de retenção diminuídos para torná-los mais estéticos. A força de retenção inicial dos espécimes foi testada em uma máquina de teste universal através de teste de tração. Depois disso, os espécimes foram submetidos a 7.000 ciclos, cada um, em uma máquina adaptada, imersos em saliva artificial, por 36 meses, simulando uso clínico de uma prótese parcial removível. Os dados foram tabulados para análise estatística da eficácia de retenção. Resultados: Após ciclagem, os grampos de resina de acetato de 3 mm de espessura e 2 mm de espessura perderam mais retenção do que os grampos metálicos. O tipo de material (p = 0,0000) e a ciclagem (p = 0,0039) mostraram um efeito significativo, mas a interação material / ciclagem (p = 0,1436) não. Conclusões: Portanto, os grampos estéticos apresentaram força de retenção inferior à dos grampus metálicos. No entanto, os grampos estéticos podem ser utilizados em casos clínicos que requerem retenção mínima. (AU)


Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the retention of acetate resin clasp as when compared to metal clasp. Material and methods: For this purpose, we constructed 10 conventional Co-Cr metal clasps (Ackers) and 20 acetate resin clasps. The acetate resin clasps had the opposition, support and retaining arms made of Co-Cr. Of the 20 esthetic clasps, 10 had the thickness of the retention arm decreased to make it more esthetic. The initial retentive force of the specimens was tested in a universal testing machine through tensile test. After that, the specimens were subjected to 7,000 cycles, each one, in an adapted machine, immersed into artificial saliva, for 36 months of simulated clinical use of a removable partial denture. Data were tabulated for statistical analysis of the retention effectiveness. Results: After cycling, 3-mm-thick and 2-mmthick acetate resin clasps lost more retention than metal clasps. The material type (p=0.0000) and cycling (p=0.0039) showed a significant effect, but the material/cycling interaction (p=0.1436) did not. Conclusions: Therefore, esthetic clasps presented retention force lower than that of metal clasps. Notwithstanding, the esthetic clasps can be used in clinical cases requiring minimum retention.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate and compare the denture satisfaction tendencies for and between the completely and partially edentulous patients, with different prosthodontic treatment modalities. Methodology: The study was conducted to include twenty eight patients that were fit to the criteria of the research, asked to answer some questions, reflect their satisfaction with the newly received dentures, which were delivered to patients according to their conditions and needs (complete removable denture, conventional metal frame RPD, RPD with flexible esthetic clasps and RPD with attachments). Results:The data collected from these patients was grouped and the questionnaires values were calculated to estimate the most satisfied group, which was seen with the group who received RPD with flexible esthetic clasps. But the significant difference analysed by Mann-Whitney Test, was focused on the satisfaction of prostheses’ appearance, that was clearly revealed for the patients who received RPD with resilient attachments; followed by the group who received complete dentures and RPD with esthetic flexible clasp (at the same level), supported by the family and friends positive opinions. Also the same group that received RPD with attachments achieved optimum level in prosthesis’ satisfaction for retention. Conclusion:The results of this research directed the attention to the recent treatment modalities in fabrication of dentures, like using flexible esthetic clasps and attachments; the patients that received RPD with flexible esthetic clasps appeared to be more satisfied with their prostheses, mostly this was related to the comfortability, esthetic and retention traits, followed with group that received RPD with attachments that showed significant differences in esthetic and retention scores than other groups. While the complete denture wearers were the less satisfied group, related obviously to the difficulty to gain the retention in relation to the partial once, as well as the uncomfortable feelings.
