A pin amalgam or composite core foundation technique for teeth with minimal coronal structure.

A common dental problem is restoring teeth with gingival or subgingival margins and extensive loss of coronal tooth structure. A technique is presented for doing so by making a wax foundation on the tooth and injecting vinyl polysiloxane impression material around the foundation to form a matrix for the tooth, using rubber dam clamps to stabilize the matrix.

Patient-fabricated denture prostheses: a clinical report.

This article describes 2 patients who presented with self-made dentures. Each patient had a different motivation for avoiding professional dental treatment. One patient made her own denture because she could not afford dental care, while the other could afford such care but avoided treatment due to a dental phobia. A discussion of diagnosis and treatment planning is presented for each situation.
