Preventive prosthodontics by precision attachment- A case report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: Prosthodontic practice should always concentrate on procedures that prevent the excessive loss of jaw bone and those that contribute in maintaining the alveolar ridge height. Overdentures are one such option wherein roots prevent alveolar bone resorption, provide better load transmission, maintain sensory feedback and achieve better stability of denture with emphasis on psychological aspect of not being completely edentulous. Additionally, precision attachment retained Overdentures distributes the masticatory forces, minimize trauma to abutments and soft tissues, attenuate ridge resorption and improve esthetics. Hence, the present case report discusses the use of stud attachment (Rhein’83) in the fabrication of attachment retained Overdenture. Keywords: Overdenture, precision attachment, rhein’83, stud attachment
