Treatment options for insufficient ridge morphology includes the use of short implants, vertical ridge augmentation procedures, or cantilever prostheses in completely edentulous patients. Due to the less predictable long-term prognosis associated with the above-mentioned procedures, the “All on 4” technique was proposed for the rehabilitation in edentulous jaws. The All on 4 treatment concept m...

Facial aesthetics is of utmost importance in person’s life.

Aesthetics such individuals seeking complete dentures can be improved help cheek plumper by supporting lifting cheeks. This article describes innovative, simple, cost-e...

Resin bonded fixed partial denture (RBFPD) has been used clinically since the 1970s, and offers a more conservative approach than conventional fixed prosthesis for restoring edentulous short span. RBFPD is inexpensive to fabricate, easy to insert, and has been shown to be cost effective for the patients. In the present article, this type of restoration has been tried to restore mandibular anter...

This report describes the clinical and technical aspects in the oral rehabilitation of an edentulous patient with knife-edge ridge at the mandibular anterior edentulous region, using implant-retained overdentures. The application of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in the fabrication of the overdenture framework simplifies the laboratory process of the implant pr...

Although the benefits of implant-borne removable prostheses are readily apparent for the fully edentulous patient and have been well documented, there is a paucity of studies concerning the combination of implants with removable partial dentures in partially edentulous patients. The aim of this article is to review the literature regarding implants with removable partial dentures and evaluate t...

In completely edentulous patients it is comparatively easy to get retention in maxillary denture due to large surface area than mandibular denture.So conventional complete dentures usually fail to satisfy the expectation of patients because of compromised retention, especiallywith mandibulardentures. This createsnegative effects on thepatient’sbehavior towards prosthodontics treatment. So a reh...

Dental implants have provided exceptional rehabilitative options for edentulous and partially edentulous patients. However, as more implants come into play, the more the clinicians come across problems where specific considerations must be taken into account to meet expectations. The Toronto Bridge is a treatment modality proposed for restoring several teeth lost in patients with increased crow...

PATIENT The patient was a 51-year-old male with a chief complaint of masticatory disturbance and anesthetic problem for the upper partially edentulous region. The cone-crown retained denture was selected as a first treatment plan. However, sufficient satisfaction was not achieved because of oral discomfort, such as bulkiness of the denture and gustatory sensation. Therefore, the treatment plan ...
