14 Years on: A Clinical Report of an 86-year-old Patient with Full Arch Implant-supported Restorations with Auro Galvano Crown Attachments
(not in the  manuscript) Oral reconstruction in fully edentulous patients can be challenging at times. Hence, it is important to offer the most suitable treatment option after a detailed clinical examination and treatment plan. This 14-year long-term follow-up report is the clinical case of a 71-year-old non-smoker who visited the clinic in 2006 and opted for full-mouth reconstruction using Auro Galvano Crown (AGC) attachments. Maintenance was performed twice a year for the past 14 years, and the clinical results were satisfactory, with no signs of inflammation or lack of retention of the superstructures. This was associated with a high level of patient satisfaction, as indicated by the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP 14). Compared to the screw-retained implants over dentures, AGC attachments can be a viable and effective treatment option when restoring fully edentulous arches.
Sensory feedback in upper limb prosthetics
One of the challenges facing prosthetic designers and engineers is to restore the missing sensory function inherit to hand amputation. Several different techniques can be employed to provide amputees with sensory feedback: sensory substitution methods where the recorded stimulus is not only transferred to the amputee, but also translated to a different modality (modality-matched feedback), which transfers the stimulus without translation and direct neural stimulation, which interacts directly with peripheral afferent nerves. This paper presents an overview of the principal works and devices employed to provide upper limb amputees with sensory feedback. The focus is on sensory substitution and modality matched feedback; the principal features, advantages and disadvantages of the different methods are presented.
