Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: The partial edentulous patient has several options for prosthetic treatment including fixed and removable solutions. The mastication, phonation and esthetics: The trident factors are very important to achieve the successful outcome of treatment. Satisfactory restoration in a patient with a partially edentulous situation can be challenging especially for unilateral or bilateral missing posterior segment. Successful restoration can be done with various conventional and contemporary treatment options. One such treatment modality is attachment-retained cast partial dentures. This paper describes a case report of a patient with maxillary bilateral distal extension edentulous span restored with a cast partial denture having an extracoronal castable precision attachment (RHEIN 83 OT STRATEGY attachments system). Case Report: A 70 year old male patient was reported with missing posterior maxillary teeth bilaterally. The remaining teeth in maxillary arch were periodontally compromised. After complete clinical and radiographic examination, a prosthetic treatment plan was designed. Fixed removable prosthesis with extracoronal precision attachments and milled abutments were planned for the maxillary kennedy’s class-I arch. Conclusion: The partially edentulous patients restored with a fixed removable prosthesis experiences more satisfaction with their prosthesis, improved masticatory ability and nutrition, along with improvements in psycho-social aspects of life.
