Aesthetic control in fixed prosthodontics.

Abstract

Leaving the aesthetic results of fixed prosthodontic treatment to chance, or to the judgment of a technician without guidance, leads to many surprises and disappointments. This paper describes techniques for planning the aesthetic outcome in the dental surgery, conveying the specifications to the dental technician and controlling the various aesthetic elements during construction of the restoration.

[The establishment of 3D-FE model libraries for the elements of FPD].

PURPOSE: To establish the 3D-FE model libraries for the elements of the FPD. METHODS: Based on the 3-D geometric model libraries of the normal stomatognathic system, using the software, such as Powershape,Pro/E and Ansys5.5, the models of abutments,retainers and pontics were created according to the models of natural crowns. The models of connectors were established according to the sutures between the crowns. RESULTS: This study has established the FE model libraries for the elements of the FPD, including the retainers,pontics,and connectors, three kinds of libraries and 82 elements in all. CONCLUSION: The established models have a satisfied geometric configuration; the analysis models can be easily established and edited.
