- ABSTRACT - A Telescopic System and Its Clinical Application for the Restoration of the Partially Edentulous Arch Mee-Ran Shin Department of Dentistry, Hangang Scared Heart Hospital, College of Medicine, Hanlym University Prosthodontic treatment planning for various edentulous arches is not an easy issue for dentists. Especially, in case of removable partial denture, we must have a knowledge of overall treatment procedures, and a careful approach is needed. Recently, interest of dental implant and case reports are increasing, the decrease of the removable partial denture is true, but dental implantation takes longer treatment period and it is more expensive. Also, there are still some limitations like lack of available alveolar bone, patient’s general condition, and chronic periodontitis. Therefore, sometimes implantation is impossible. Finally, implantation cannot be adapted to every single patient. Currently, the clasp type removable partial dentures are used routinely, giving patients many unesthetic and functional difficulties. With better laboratory technique, removable partial denture with attachment and removable partial denture in rigid type increase patient’s happiness level much more than predicted. The case presented in this article, clinically demonstrate the efficiency of using a telescopic system to improve esthetic and functional recovery for patients who lose multiple teeth.
