Dental implants have transformed oral rehabilitation, exhibiting high survival rates; however, biological complications such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis remain prevalent. Poor oral hygiene is a recognized risk factor for these conditions, yet region-specific evidence, particularly in Saudi Arabia, is limited. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the association between patient oral hygiene status and dental implant failure rates at Riyadh Elm University (REU) clinics. Cl

A frequent inflammatory disease in denture wearers is denture stomatitis, which is closely linked with the colonization of denture surfaces with Candida species, in particular, Candida albicans.

Traditional antifungal therapies can help alleviate symptoms but the reoccurrence of the fungal infection is common because of the biofilm resistance and microbi

This incorporation of embedded electronic sensors into both removable and fixed prostheses can be considered a major breakthrough in prosthodontics and digital healthcare in that real-time clinical parameters such as temperature, pressure, prosthesis forces, prosthesis use, and oral environmental changes can be monitored. Such sensor-based devices as smart dentures, implant-supported prostheses, and intraoral monitoring systems can improve the work of prostheses, to make them more comfortable to
