Abstract

|
|
When restoration for partially edentulous patients, abutments are not always in favorable positions for making removable partial dentures. Because of these situations, patients are sometimes unsatisfied with the stability and support of their removable partial prostheses. In this regard, removable partial denture using a few implant surveyed crown prostheses can be a good alternative. It can be expected to increase stability and support of removable partial dentures by strategically placing a small number of implants and restoring with implant-supported surveyed crowns. In these cases, the patients who had unilateral residual teeth on mandible were treated with two implant surveyed crowns in the tactical place to have bilateral distribution. After definitive removable partial prosthesis, the patients showed satisfaction with the masticatory function and comfort of using removable dentures.
