The removable partial denture as a periodontal prosthesis.

Research has presented evidence to undermine the myth that the removable partial denture contributes to the progression of periodontal disease and is not suitable therapy for the treated periodontal patient. The properly designed removable partial denture for the periodontal patient can contribute to stability of mobile teeth and provide for an intact functional dentition. If the factors of plaque, pocket depth, transmitted forces to teeth, and tissue coverage are controlled by the therapist, it is conceivable that the result will yield long-term results by providing function with decreased expense, contingency for tooth loss, and prevention of full mouth extraction.
