Opis

A common axiom in conventional prosthodontics for partial edentulism is a fixed partial denture. Fewer the natural teeth missing better the indication for fixed partial denture. Unfortunately every case is different in relation to anatomical variations, patient's desires and medical condition. There is no iron clad rule for a particular design. A subtle modification in designing is required to suit a given particular case. Dentistry is an ever changing branch. Over the period of time many types of bridges have come up ranging from the traditional to resin retained to the implant retained bridges. Apart from conventional fixed partial denture modem dentistry involves implants to restore patient to normal contour, function, comfort, esthetics, speech, and health regardless of atrophy, disease or injury of stomatognathic system. With the treatment options available today, a dentist's knowledge and vigilance, adequate skilled lab support and patient's cooperation can help to achieve the only goal of a prosthodontist that is meticulous replacement with maximum preservation.
