Tooth Loss and 12‐Year Mortality Risk in 8494 Older Adults From Ireland
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate whether tooth loss is associated with all‐cause and cause‐specific mortality in older Irish adults. Methods A total of 8494 participants from The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) were included. Survey data were linked to death registration records, covering individuals who participated in TILDA Wave 1 (2009 ...

This study examined how different occlusal support patterns affect oral function and quality of life in right‐handed elderly denture wearers. Reduced function was most notable in the right distal extension group. Despite asymmetry, the preferred chewing side remained consistent, especially when bilateral support was maintained.

Digital denture with mucostatic base and functional borders: A cast‐free digital technique
Abstract Digital complete dentures fabricated using a mucostatic impression, like intraoral scans, are desirable for their beneficial effect on long‐term residual ridge stability but may have less retention than those fabricated with a mucocompressive impression.
