Immediate Overdenture - A Treatment Option for Bone Preservation

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Between very few preventive prosthodontic options, immediate overdenture has not used as frequently as expected and there are few studies indicating their performance. Losing a natural tooth to a convenient treatment plan is one of the major causes for immediate overdenture been scarcely used. With dual advantages the prosthesis offers a delay of edentulous state and/or delay in deterioration of residual alveolar ridges by the amount of time that it will serve in the oral cavity. This article in the form of a clinical case report explores the clinical issues associated with such prosthesis.
