Use of Gingival Prosthesis Mask for a Periodontally Compromised Patient: a Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Periodontal disease may lead to tooth and tissue loss that can result in esthetic problems. Combined periodontal/prosthodontic treatment for patients with advanced disease is well documented. This case report illustrates a method of treatment for an advanced tissue loss in an esthetic area using a removable heat-polymerized polymethylmethacrylate resin gingival prosthesis/ mask.

Immediate Replacement of Periodontally Compromised Teeth Using Natural Tooth Pontic
This article reports a case who was treated with immediate replacement of periodontally compromised mandibular incisors using the extracted incisors as a natural tooth pontic. Following extraction and root resection of the mandibular incisors, radicular pulp was cleaned and filled with composite resin and then bonded to adjacent teeth with fiber reinforced composite resin. This is a simple, eco...
متن کاملInterdisciplinary approach for the treatment of periodontally compromised malpositioned anterior teeth: a case report

With adequate combined periodontal-orthodontic treatment it is possible to re-establish a healthy and well-functioning dentition. However, while orthodontic treatment can realign periodontally affected teeth, esthetic ...
متن کاملCase Report of an open Neck Procedure Complication Associated with Laryngeal Mask Airway Use
Introduction: The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is a safe method to establish airway control during general anaesthesia. In otolaryngology surgery, the use of a LMA is well established in ear surgery; however, the use of a LMA during open neck procedures remains controversial. We report a case in which the pharyngeal distortion by the LMA cuff resulted in an iatrogenic complication. Case Report...
