Item Comparison of Residual Monomer And Water Absorption In Acrylic Resin Samples Processed With Microwave And Conventional Heat Cure Polymerization Methods - Invitro Study.(2012-01) Rao, P Srinivas; Mahesh, P; Kumar, H C; Rao, M Reddi NarasimhaThe different denture base materials and their processing techniques are developing in the field of removable and fixed prosthodontics. The polymers, especially acrylic resins are entered in this field more than 70 years ago and it is most widely used and material of choice around 80% world wide. Initially acrylic resins were polymerized by heat, later they developed using chemical accelerators for polymerization and termed as selfcure resins. The use of microwave energy to polymerize acrylic denture base in a 400 watt microwave oven for 2.5 minutes was reported in 1968 and properties ware discussed. The present study is designed to compare the residual monomer content in 24,48,72,96 and 120 hours periods of time and water absorption after 10 days in acrylic resin samples processed with conventional heat cure polymerization method and microwave polymerization method.Item Immediate Loading of Dental Implants : A Review - Part I.(2014-04) Mahesh, P; Kumar, V H Chalapathi; Babu, K A SaranThe ideal goal of prosthetic dentistry is to restore the form and function of the missing structures as close to natural as possible. The introduction of implants have revolutionized the field of restorative dentistry and this article evaluates the merits and demerits of the immediate loading implantsItem An In Vivo Clinical Study of Facial Measurements For Anterior Teeth Selction.(2012-01) Mahesh, P; Rao, P Srinivas; Kumar, T Pavan; Shalini, KThe esthetic aspect of complete denture construction is increasingly occupying an important role in prosthodontics. Denture patients desire a brand of denture esthetics closely paralleling the ideal esthetic values of the third decade of life. Many pre-extraction records will guide selection of appropriate tooth mold for each individual. These include diagnostic casts, photographs, roentgenograms, extracted teeth etc. When no pre-extraction records are available; it is difficult to select an appropriate tooth mold that can reestablish the naturalness of the individual patient. In such a scenario, various facial measurements and proportions aid in the selection of appropriate artificial tooth dimensions. The “Golden proportion”, one of the building blocks of beauty, is one such guideline that can be applied to the profession of dentistry with assured success. The aim of present study is to find out which of the facial measurements are in golden ratio with anterior teeth and that can be used for artificial teeth selection
