RESUMEN
Full mouth rehabilitation always claims careful attention and meticulous treatment planning. It becomes more challenging with the partial edentulism where bilateral segment is found missing. Successful restoration can be done with plenty of contemporary and conventional treatment planning. Attachment retained partial dentures are one such kind of treatment modality in prosthodontics. Studies have also demonstrated that precision-attachment partials last longer, wear less, need less adjustments, look better, work better, less destructive, protect abutment teeth, and are easier to clean. In this case report patient’s functional and aesthetic expectations were met by doing full mouth rehabilitation using combination of Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) restorations and semiprecision attachments.
RESUMEN
Successful replacement of the lost teeth by means of tissue-integrated implants represents a major advance in dentistry. The bone quality and amount of bone available in anterior maxilla is often variable and commonly there is a deficiency of bone volume. Currently, however, implants are also being placed in sites with ridge defects of various dimensions. The various reconstruction techniques using bone graft, guided bone regeneration, orthognathic surgery or bone distraction provides the surgical specialist with a wide range of treatment options for placing implants in compromised ridges. Appropriate use of these methods will enable the successful treatment of almost any complicated case with bone deficient jaws. This case reports the step-by-step procedures in a case where the missing maxillary left central incisor was restored by placement of implant simultaneous with the use of bone grafting using Hydroxyapatite for the correction of minor dehiscence in the alveolar ridge.
