The prevalence of prosthodontic treatment has been well recognized, and the need is
continuously increasing with the ageing population. While the oral mucosa plays a critical …

Background Appropriate load distribution among the supporting elements is essential for the
long-term success of implant-assisted removable partial dentures; however, there is little …

With ever-growing aging population and demand for denture treatments, pressure-induced
mucosa lesion and residual ridge resorption remain main sources of clinical complications …

Owing to economic conditions, removable dentures remain popular despite the discomfort
and reduced chewing efficiency experienced by most denture wearers. However, there is …

Background Maintaining quality of life of elderly denture wearers is one of the most crucial
tasks for dentists in the super‐aged society. Although external mechanical load on …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of implant location on load
distribution in the abutment tooth, implant and residual ridge with a distal-extension implant …

This study aimed to clarify the effects of bone remodeling on biomechanical behavior in a
patient with a mandibular implant-supported overdenture by comparing computed …

This study aimed to investigate the effect of attachment type on the load transmitted to
implants and the residual ridge in a mandibular two-implant-supported overdenture in a …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Pressure transmission and distribution under denture bases
