Soft Tissue Assessment in Screw-Retained Maxillary Complete Denture With Electric Welded Framework Versus Casted

Cairo University12 enrolled

Overview

comparing the changes in the soft tissue around the implants that will be joined by a metal framework either with electric welding or with the conventional casting method

as joining multiple implants by a metal framework considered a solid solution for edentulous arches , but in the same time the conventional method to weld this metal framework to the implants by casting technique in lab usually involves a several disadvantages eg. cost and time consuming in addition to laboratory errors, Thus , this study aims to find another method to weld the metal framework intraorally by an electric welding device

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Soft Tissue Changes Assessment

Primary outcome is the probing depth which will be measured using the periodontal probe (unit mm) around the implant to check the changes that may occur in the peri-implant soft tissues
