Abstract

20Dec 2017 EFFECT OF SPLINTING AND NON SPLINTING OF IMPRESSION TRANSFER DURING IMPRESSION MAKING ON THE FIT OF MULTI-IMPLANT SUPPORTED FIXED FULL ARCH FRAMEWORKS. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS.

Highlights

  • The purpose of this review was to evaluate clinical studies comparing splinted and nonsplinted impression techniques regarding passive fit Materials and methods: An electronic search was performed in November 2017 of MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases with the key words implant, implants, impression, and impressions

  • The meta-analysis of the three trials regarding framework fitting comparing splinted and non-splinted impression showed statistically non-significant more risk of misfit in none splinted technique when compared to splinted technique

  • In regard to direct splinting, the main reason of distortion with resin possibly occurred by the residual polymerization shrinkage. 6-7 Some authors revealed that, indirect splinting offers more precise relation transfer while others deduced that there is no significant difference between direct and indirect splinting of impression transfer. 8-9 So that, will the use of splinting technique offers a better spatial implant relation transfer and better prosthesis fit than nonsplinting technique or not?

Summary

Introduction

Purpose: The purpose of this review was to evaluate clinical studies comparing splinted and nonsplinted impression techniques regarding passive fit Materials and methods: An electronic search was performed in November 2017 of MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases with the key words implant, implants, impression, and impressions. The study had to investigate the passive fit of implant prosthesis. The meta-analysis of the three trials regarding framework fitting comparing splinted and non-splinted impression showed statistically non-significant more risk of misfit in none splinted technique when compared to splinted technique.
