RESUMO
This clinical report describes the fabrication and a three-year follow-up of maxillary and mandibular cast overlay removable partial dentures for the restoration of severely worn dentition with accompanying loss of vertical dimension of occlusion. The frameworks supported porcelain veneers for esthetics, and metal occlusal surfaces for strength and durability.

The fabrication of provisional restorations is an important stage in implant treatment. In the esthetic zone, the potential for error without the use of provisional restorations in the selection of the abutments, framework design, appropriate vertical dimension of occlusion, occlusal profile, and the esthetic interpretation may be significant. Provisional restorations are indicated in esthetic zones, for the contouring of the gingiva, to achieve an acceptable emergence profile, to have custom-guided tissue healing, and to induce appropriate soft-tissue topography. This article describes the fabrication of a provisional restoration for a single-unit implant-supported crown.

A 71-year-old white male had a routine panoramic radiograph taken for oral health reasons. Positive carotid calcifications findings on the radiograph were in agreement with significant carotid stenosis as determined by duplex ultrasonic examination. If the occasion arises, the authors advocate that a routine panoramic radiograph examination include an assessment of the region of the carotid system for presence of carotid calcifications in all adult patients.
