Journal Title: National Journal of Medical and Dental Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Oligodontia is the agenesis of six or more teeth, excluding third molars. Congenitalabsence of teeth is a polygenetic disorder that can occur either in isolation or as a co-finding in many syndromes. Clinical features, diagnostic characteristics and management strategies all depend on the severity of the condition, presence or absence of associated syndromes and available resources. The absence of teeth in patients can cause aesthetic, functional, and psychological difficulties, particularly if the anterior teeth are involved. This case report describes the role of prosthodontist in the multidisciplinary treatment approach for a twenty-three years old female patient with non-syndromic oligodontia. After pre-prosthetic orthodontic proper alignment and positioning of teeth and correction of inter-maxillary relations, prosthetic rehabilitation was carried out. Prosthetic rehabilitation involved full-mouth porcelain fused to metal crowns and bridges after increasing occlusal vertical dimension by two millimeters. Patient expressed complete satisfaction with function and esthetic of prosthetic rehabilitation.
