[Preventive therapy with cast removable partial dentures].

Abstract

Starting from tertiary prevention, the author quotes statistical reports of their clinical successfulness. The classification into groups of changes of success according to E. Köhler (fig. 3) permits to give practice-oriented recommendations for therapy (fig. 4-6). The various possibilities of designing the sublingual bar and its attachment (fig. 7 and 8) are interpreted. Finally, the author gives advice on mouth and prosthesis hygiene and on the mode of wear with regard to their importance in inflammations.
