MAXILLARY IMPLANT-SUPPORTED OVERDENTURES: MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR COMPARING INDIVIDUAL AXIAL AND BAR RETENTION SYSTEMS. A COHORT STUDY OF EDENTULOUS PATIENTS

Maxillary Implant-Supported Overdentures: Mechanical Behavior Comparing Individual Axial and Bar Retention Systems. A Cohort Study of Edentulous Patients

Background and objectives: To compare the medium- to long-term mechanical behavior of overdentures with two different retention systems: overdentures with Locator® axial retention, and vertical insertion overdentures with bar retention, used to rehabilitate edentulous maxillar.Material and Methods: This prospective study assessed patients pres

Novel information on the epitope of an inverse agonist monoclonal antibody provides insight into the structure of the TSH receptor.

The TSH receptor (TSHR) comprises an extracellular leucine-rich domain (LRD) linked by a hinge region to MISWAK TOOTHPASTE the transmembrane domain (TMD).Insight into the orientation of these components to each other is required for understanding how ligands activate the receptor.We previously identified residue E251 at the LRD-hinge junction as co
