COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF A NEW CREAM FOR FIXING DENTAL PROSTHESES

Abstract

One of the main difficulties in the rehabilitation of patients with a complete absence of teeth using removable lamellar dentures is the problem of adaptation to dentures and the full restoration of chewing function. This is often associated with insufficient fixation and stabilization of the prosthesis due to unfavorable anatomical conditions of the prosthetic bed. Improving the fixation and stabilization of removable lamellar dentures in the complete absence of teeth is facilitated by the use of special fixing creams, the mechanism of action is to create a viscous adhesive film between the prosthesis and the mucous membrane of the prosthetic bed, which contributes to a tighter closure of the valve zone. A large number of creams for fixing prostheses are freely available and are in great demand. As part of a research project with grant support at Volgograd University, a new cream for this purpose has been developed. This study is a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of the use of new and already known creams for fixing prostheses and was carried out by assessing the course of the adaptation process.
