Item Consideraciones técnicas en el proceso de elaboración de prótesis hibridas.(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Hurtado Velandia, Jeison Steven; Toro Espinosa, Duvan Andrés; Sánchez Arteaga, Claudia Patricia (Directora)The process of creating an overdenture is complex and requires a series of technical considerations to guarantee success. Below is a summary of some things to consider: 1. Selection of the appropriate material: It is essential to choose a high-quality material that is compatible with the patient's oral anatomy. This includes choosing the appropriate metal alloy for the internal structure of the prosthesis, as well as plastic or ceramic for the visible part. 2. Accurate impression: Accurate impression is important to ensure a good fit of the overdenture. High-quality impression techniques, such as digital impressions or silicone impression materials, should be used to accurately capture the shape and size of the patient's mouth. 3. Detailed digital design: In many cases, the design of the overdenture is done digitally using CAD/CAM software. It is important that this design be detailed and precise to ensure a perfect fit and aesthetic satisfaction. 4. Final fit and finish: Once the overdenture is fabricated, a precise fit is required to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance. This may include bite adjustments, surface polishing, and staining to match the patient's natural teeth. 5. Quality control: Strict quality control must be carried out at all stages of the manufacturing process to ensure that the prosthesis meets the required quality and safety standards. This may involve stress testing, aesthetic evaluation, and final fit verification. In summary, technical considerations in the overdenture manufacturing process include proper material selection, accurate impression taking, detailed digital design, careful fabrication, fit and finish, as well as strict quality control. These considerations are essential to ensure clinical success and patient satisfaction with the final prosthesis.
