| Abstract | ||
| The purpose of the study was to evaluate the Retention of high-arched maxillary dentures constructed from conventional, thermoformed, and milled CAD/CAM resins. Materials and Methods: An edentulous patient with high -arched palate was selected from the outpatient clinic, Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Minia University. The patient was seeking complete denture treatment. Using the master cast of this case to duplicate thirty stone casts that were numbered and randomly arranged into one of three study groups, each group contain 10 casts. The three groups are; a conventional technique, thermoformed technique, milling technique (CAD/CAM) The results: There are a statistical significant difference between all groups .The thermoformed group displayed the highest numeric retention mean. Conclusions: Based on the limitation of this in vitro study, the following conclusions were drawn: The thermoformed maxillary dentures provided the greatest retention based on mean values. The CAD/CAM milled dentures performed better than conventional heat-cured but lower than thermoformed dentures. | ||
