Development trends of mucous-borne dentures in the aspect of elastomers applications

Purpose: The aim of this study is to foreseen the influence of elastomers on the development of mucous-borne dentures in the aspect of bio-compatible use of prosthetic foundation tissue load bearing capacity. Design/methodology/approach: Multi-criteria comparative analysis based on the dendrological matrix of attractiveness and potential was used for the studies of denture solution and materials. There were differentiated seven groups of conventional dentures without an implantological stabilisation - the so-called hard dentures (CD) and those with a soft relining (CD-P), stabilized on one implant (SID) or on two implants (TID), that were differentiated as far as the denture attachment to implant was concerned. The first group was marked as "hard" (K) due to the used materials and inconsiderable lateral compliance. The elastomeric attachments (S) constituted the second group of attachments. Findings: In case of conventional dentures a significant influence of the relining on attractiveness was observed. In case of dentures retained on elastomeric attachments - they decided not only on the attractiveness, but they have also significantly increased dentures' potential. Research limitations/implications: Throughout the studies the variation of denture bearing structure materials were not taken into account, based on the assumption that acrylates are the most commonly used. Practical implications: The similar level of attractiveness of dentures retained on implants significantly varying as far as their construction is concerned shows that the focus should be mainly put on material design of elastomers' wearing characteristics. Originality/value: Multi-criteria heuristic analysis proved to be an effective tool for examination of dentures in the aspect evaluation of dentures material and cosntruction that show perspectives of the broadest use due to exploitation of the tissue bearing capability.
