Onlay partial denture technique for assessment of adequate occlusal vertical dimension: a clinical report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Clinical treatments that require restoration of occlusal vertical dimension pose a challenge to prosthodontists. This article describes the modification of existing removable partial dentures into onlay interim prostheses. This process allowed the patient's tolerance to the restored occlusal vertical dimension, esthetics, and phonetics to be evaluated before irreversible changes were made to the dentition.

متن کاملA Treatment Protocol for Restoring Occlusal Vertical Dimension Using an Overlay Removable Partial Denture as an Alternative to Extensive Fixed Restorations: A Clinical Report
Treatment options for patients with severe attrition resulting in reduced occlusal vertical dimension are often limited to fixed prosthesis to reestablish proper occlusal vertical dimension and functional occlusion. In some cases such as when there are limited finances, minimal esthetic concerns, and medical considerations fixed prosthesis may not be the ideal treatment option. Overlay removabl...
متن کاملRestoration of the Occlusal Vertical Dimension with an Overlay Removable Partial Denture: A Clinical Report.
The process of tooth loss throughout life associated with severe occlusal wear may pose a challenge in the rehabilitation of partially edentulous arches. In these cases, many therapeutic procedures are necessary because each tooth must be restored to obtain the correct anatomical contour and recover the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD). A removable partial denture (RPD) with occlusal/incisal c...
