ABSTRACT

Virtual planning has become part and parcel of digital dentistry to ensure more precise planning, better treatment outcomes, and more effective communication between dental practitioners, dental technicians, and patients. In dentistry, CAD software programs are one way to achieve virtual treatment planning. Among the most crucial and critical steps in treatment planning and execution are virtual articulation and occlusal analysis of the maxillary and mandibular arches. These steps have a great influence on the success of the final outcome. The present article proposes a detailed method for constructing a novel virtual articulator that can also be used for educational purposes to enable occlusal analysis and adjustment for a virtual tooth mock-up by simulating a virtual dynamic occlusion through the use of open-source Autodesk Meshmixer software.

ABSTRACT

Aim: To investigate the effect of different cooling methods on denture base adaptation of rapid heat-cured acrylic resin using 3D superimposition technique. Setting and Design: In vitro - Comparative study. Materials and Methods: Denture base adaptation of two different rapid heat-cured polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resins using five different cooling methods were compared. Forty maxillary edentulous stone cast were prepared to produce the denture bases with standardized thickness. The specimens were divided into five groups (n = 8) according to type of materials and cooling methods. The master stone cast and all forty denture bases were scanned with 3Shape E1 laboratory scanner. The scanned images of each of the denture bases were superimposed over the scanned image of the master cast using Materialize 3-matic software. Three dimensional differences between the two surfaces were calculated and color surface maps were generated for visual qualitative assessment. Statistical Analysis Used: Generalized Linear Model Test, Bonferroni Post Hoc Analysis. Results: All bench-cooled specimens showed wide green-colored area in the overall palatal surface, while the rapid cooled specimens presented with increased red color areas especially at the palate and post dam area. Generalized Linear Model test followed by Bonferroni post hoc analysis showed significant difference in the root mean square values among the specimen groups. Conclusion: Samples that were bench cooled, demonstrated better overall accuracy compared to the rapid cooling groups. Regardless of need for shorter denture processing time, bench cooling of rapid heat-cured PMMA is essential for acceptable denture base adaptation.
