Effects of Clenching Intensity and Duration on Pressure Pain Threshold and Masseter‐Muscle Stiffness Under Standardised EMG‐Based Contraction Exposure

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Under equivalent prescribed EMG‐based contraction exposure, pressure pain threshold was modestly but significantly lower immediately after low‐intensity, long‐duration clenching than after high‐intensity, short‐duration clenching, whereas the latter induced a transient reduction in masseter‐muscle stiffness.

Masticatory Performance and its Relationship With Sarcopenia, Frailty and Functional Outcomes in Hospitalized Older Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 217 patients aged ≥ 70 years admitted to geriatric rehabilitation, poor oral function assessed by masticatory performance was common and often occurred without sarcopenia or frailty. Its independent association with functional outcomes suggests that pragmatic bedside assessment of masticatory performance adds value to routine geriatric assessment in

The Relationship Between Occlusal Tactile Acuity, Bite Force and Tooth Wear

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This explorative study evaluated the relationships between occlusal tactile acuity, bite force and tooth wear in a clinical patient cohort. The main finding of a significant association between bite force and tooth wear, also after adjustment for age, reinforces the clinical relevance of assessing bite force in patient populations.

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Effect of build orientation on the fabrication trueness of additively manufactured implant‐supported complete arch interim fixed prostheses

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate how build orientation affects the fabrication trueness of additively manufactured implant‐supported complete arch prostheses by comparing them to subtractively manufactured high‐impact polymer‐based prostheses. Materials and Methods An edentulous maxillary model with four implants at canine and first molar regions ...

Wettability of saliva substitutes across various denture base fabrication techniques

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The present study evaluated the contact angles (CAs) of four denture base materials subjected to different surface treatments using deionized water and saliva substitutes. Material and Methods A total of 32 rectangular specimens were manufactured using four different denture base materials: heat‐cured compression molded Lucitone 199 (C)

Workflow to facilitate complete denture scanning with an intraoral scanner: A technique report

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Scanning a denture with an intraoral scanner is typically more challenging than scanning a dentate arch. This article describes a novel technique for digitally duplicating a complete denture. The workflow involves scanning an existing denture using an intraoral scanner with the addition of specific markers and subsequently constructing a ...

Shade variability and stability in interim and definitive tooth‐colored resin‐based restorative materials: Comparing manufacturer‐claimed shades to a universal shade guide

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the shade variability and stability of interim and definitive tooth‐colored restorative materials by comparing manufacturer‐claimed shades to a universal shade guide before and after thermocycling. Materials and Methods Eight commercially available tooth‐colored restorative materials were tested, including conventional ...
