- Abstract
The article "The Panthera Story: The Competition Entry of the Panthera Master Cup 2023 - Part 1" reports on the competition of the Panthera Master Cup, in which 22-year-old dental technician Patricia Strimb from Augsburg won first place. The article documents her competition entry and describes the aesthetic-functional complete denture that she has developed. It also focuses on the patient Menaka S., who has lost all her teeth due to genetic factors and has opted for an implant treatment. The article describes the treatment plan and the patient's aesthetic desires. Various techniques and materials for the production of the prosthesis are also described. The article is about the production of dental prosthetics and the selection of tooth shapes. It is explained that a vestibular placement was made when setting up the teeth to create enough space for the teeth. The author chose a tooth color from category A1 to create a contrast to the patient's complexion. VitaPan Excell was chosen for the prefabricated teeth. The use of low-pressure plasma in the laboratory for surface activation and cleaning is also discussed. Furthermore, the use of 3D facial scans for the design of dental prosthetics is described. The importance of the front tooth step for a harmonious smile is also explained.
