Abstract

Patients with acquired jaw defects treated with prostheses present variable prosthesis longevity due to variable factors that influence the tissue foundation anatomically and physiologically supporting the prosthesis. Prosthesis serviceability is unpredictable or limited in longevity. Multiple prostheses and sequential prostheses interrelated are often indicated to effectively rehabilitate patients with acquired jaw defects.

[Case report of a patient with bounded missing, treated with removable partial denture].

PATIENT: The patient was a 60-year-old male with the chief complaint of loosening of the bridge on the upper right side. The diagnoses of the patient were detachment of the bridge (7 6 5 4 3 2 1 | 1) and root fracture (5|). A cobalt chromium plate with Mini-SG attachment was used at 4 3 2| to fix the bridge. The course of the patient was uneventful five years after the treatment. DISCUSSION: Judging from the condition of the detached bridge, the same type of fixed bridge was considered too weak to withstand the lateral force. Stabilization of the functional occlusion was achieved by using the attachment, followed by good clinical results. CONCLUSION: The patient was satisfied with the comfort of the removable partial denture with attachment, and good functional results were obtained.
