Rehabilitation of Long Span Partially Edentulous Arch Using Clasp less Cast Partial Denture and Precision Attachment - An Aesthetic Approach: Case Series
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Rehabilitation of Multiple missing teeth is always challenging job for a prosthodontist in partial edentulous patient especially in distal extension cases. Successful treatment can be done with accurate diagnosis and careful treatment planning. Implant fixed prosthesis has become contemporary choice for the replacement of natural teeth in distal extension cases. But all the patients cannot afford the cost. A small number patient who can afford may have limitations like systemic diseases, or the anatomical considerations may contraindicate the dental implant options. So for that group of patient conventional methods of fabrication of the removable partial denture is a best treatment option. In modern dentistry claspless cast partial denture with precision attachment is a newer treatment modality for partially edentulous arch. Prime function of attachment retained partial denture is to distribute the masticatory forces to the wide area thereby reducing the damage to the abutments, soft tissues and bony ridges in addition to improved esthetics and proprioceptive responses. In this case series patient’s esthetic and functional requirements were fulfilled with attachment retained cast partial denture using semi-precision attachments.
