Artificial teeth obtained by additive manufacturing: Wear resistance aspects. A systematic review of in vitro studies

open access: yesHeliyon
Wear resistance is one of the properties that must be considered for maintaining the long-term functionality of artificial teeth in dental prostheses. This property can be altered by the method of tooth fabrication, the material, the chewing force, and ...

The influence of double flask processing in occlusal plane when a couple of dentures are processed in occlusal position

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015
Equilibrate occlusion system is an important goal in oral rehabilitation. This occlusal scheme is established when the denture teeth are placed in the plane of orientation, and could be changed by alterations related to polymerization resin process.
