The positioning and shape of the occlusal posterior teeth in complete dentures are extremely important for to lead an adequate masticatory performance of edentulous patient. Besides the occlusal scheme, the use of dental implants can contribute to masticatory efficiency because they improve the retention and stability of the prosthesis, particularly the lower prosthesis. Thus the objectiv…
Preparation of provisional prosthesis is an essential stage inside implant-supported rehabilitation, especially in cases of immediate loading in anterior region rehabilitations. It's important that this prosthesis has to be easy to prepare and has a good resistance to fracture. To use an acrylic resin facet of tooth stock associated to other materials, such as composite resin, is a common…
Among the biomechanics complications related with the prosthesis over implant, the stability of the joint bolted, region of the interface between implant/abutment/screw, and whose function is hold the prosthesis on implants united. It has been investigated due to the frequent complications, as the constant loosening and breakings of the abutment screws. Although there are studies that inv…

The use of a single implant in the mandibular symphysis has been presented as a viable alternative in terms of implant longevity, patient satisfaction in favoring functional properties, related to the lack of retention and stability of conventional full mandibular prostheses. The aim of this longitudinal clinical study will be to evaluate maximal bite force (BF) and masticatory performanc…
A clinical study, observational, non-analytical, cross-sectional with the aim to evaluate the connection between mastigatory performance and salivary flow in elderly edentulous patients submitted to two types of oral rehabilitation with conventional maxillary complete denture and implant supported prosthesis of the type mandibular protocol. After the Informed Consent Term (TCLE) previousl…
Maximum bite force determination is a subjective variable of great importance for the establishment of the correct treatment plan and prognosis in oral rehabilitations. The instruments used for this measurement are not feasible for office routine, due to the high financial cost. On the other hand, manual dynamometers for manual force measurement can offer an alternative to overall strengt…
