[Problem of xerostomia in wearers of complete dentures].

Xerostomia, jointed to local or general diseases or to drug therapy, is a very heavy problem for complete denture patients. Lack of saliva produces changes in the oral mucose membrane and instability of the complete denture. The Authors suggest a change in the complete denture consisting in small tanks full of solution making up for the lack of saliva. The new method proved to be good, easy to make, and very cheap.

[Cements for fixed prostheses. Traction resistance force].

The cementation is a basic step in the fixed prosthesis rehabilitation. Therefore, it is very important to know the main chemical, physical and biological properties of luting cements. The tensile strength of some dental cements for fixed cast restorations has been studied. Results obtained showed that glass ionomer and zinc oxide-eugenol with Eba are better than the other dental cements. The difference between the data obtained showed to be statistically significant.
