Oral rehabilitation through preventive approach: Overdenture and fenestrated denture

Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

Achieving excellence in aesthetics and preservation of remaining structure is the ultimate goal in preventive prosthodontic. Overdenture is a conservative and preventive approach and is essentially a preventive prosthodontic concept as it endeavours to preserve remaining teeth and thus found to be eminently suitable for treating patients with few remaining natural teeth. This case report discusses the merits of using selectively retained roots and abutments to minimize alveolar ridge resorption underneath the complete denture fabricated as maxillary overdenture and mandibular fenestrated denture.
