Objective: This study was carried out to evaluate the prevalence of partial edentulism, complete edentulism and complete edentulous arch opposing the partial edentulous arches in relation to the various age groups and gender in local population of Hyderabad. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Prosthodontic, Isra Dental College, Hyderabad. Duration of the study was 6 months, from January 2016 to June, 2016. A total 504 patients were selected for this study on the basis of history and clinical examination. The selected subjects were divided into six age groups. Data was statistically analysed by SPSS statistics software version 21. Descriptive statistics such as frequencies, percentages, mean and cross tabulation were applied to test the variables. The level of statistical significance was set to 0.5%. Results: The results showed that out of 504 selected subjects 426 (84.5%) subjects were partially edentulous, as compared to completely edentulous patients who numbered only 66 (13.1%) whereas 7 (1.4%) subjects had complete edentulous upper ridge and partially edentulous lower ridge, only 5 (1%) subjects had complete edentulous lower ridge and partially edentulous upper ridge. Partially edentulous jaws were more prevalent in females and in middle aged patients ranging from 31-40 years and completely edentulous jaws were more prevalent among male subjects in old age subjects who were above 60 years of age. Single complete denture opposing partially edentulous ridges were more common in females and in patients who were above 30 years of age. Conclusion: This study concluded that the partially edentulous jaws were more prevalent as compared to completely edentulous jaws. Partially edentulous jaws were more prevalent in females and in middle aged patients while completely edentulous jaws were more prevalent among male subjects and in old age subjects of either age, whereas single complete denture opposing partially edentulous ridges were more common in females and in patients who were above 30 years of age

ABSTRACTBackground: Partial edentulism is the process when single or multiple teeth is missing from the alveolar socket and it may become an indicator for oral health. Partial edentulism can occur since the age of six and the aging factor increases the risk. Partial edentulism can be caused by some factors including: ages, gender, economic level, education level, knowledge level, and the etiology of the tooth loss. Purpose: To describe the distribution of partially edentulous pattern from RSGMP Gusti Hasan Aman’s patients in Banjarmasin. Method: This study was including patients from RSGMP Gusti Hasan Aman between the age of 17-45 years old in Banjarmasin using purposive sampling. Questionnaires were distributed to determined patient knowledge on oral health with Kennedy classification for the partially edentulous pattern. Result: Kennedy Class II was the most frequent edentulous pattern observed on the upper (37%) and the lower jaw (39%). In particular, the adolescent group had the highest percentage (43%) of partial edentulism based on age. Women had the highest percentage (57%) of partial eduntulism based on gender. Respondents with moderate economic status had the highest percentage (35%) of partial edentulism. Respondents that have high school or above education level were the highest percentage (87%) identified with partial edentulous. The most common etiology that identified with partial edentulous was the caries (52%). Conclusion: It can be concluded that Kennedy class III is the most confronted partially edentulous pattern among patients at RSGMP Gusti Hasan Aman in Banjarmasin.Keywords: Partially Teeth Loss Pattern, Kennedy, RSGMP Gusti Hasan Aman

Abstract This case series elaborates on tooth-supported overdenture for prosthetic rehabilitation as a treatment modality in partially edentulous patients. Loss of teeth causes continuous ridge resorption and poor denture foundation affecting the success of prosthesis. Retained natural teeth act as abutments for prosthetic rehabilitation of partial edentulous arches. Tooth-supported overdenture is the mainstay of preventive prosthodontics which preserves natural teeth and/or roots. The cases describe the use of tooth-supported complete overdenture and removable partial overdenture with metal denture base to rehabilitate partially edentulous arches. The natural teeth maintain proprioception and provide additional support, stability, retention, and psychological benefit to the patient than the conventional complete denture with completely edentulous ridges.

Background: Distal extension edentulism can affect the patients ability to function as a dentate person. A well-made removable partial denture that has appropriate extensions, borders and ridge-to-dentition relationship will benefit the partially edentulous patient by providing increased comfort and improved dental function. This article described a patient who had a bilateral distal extension removable partial denture in both upper and lower arch. The prosthesis showed a successful rehabilitation with proper function and aesthetics. Methods: A Kennedy class I bilateral free end saddle edentulous arch in both upper and lower arch was rehabilitated with removable cast partial denture. The case had the reasonable amount of crown: root ratio for the remaining abutment teeth for placement of metal framework, occlusal rest and cast clasp. Results: The delivered denture showed proper sitting of occlusal rest and cast clasp. Retention and stability was acceptable. Occlusion had achieved its desired occlusion scheme. Conclusion: Removable cast partial denture is a suitable option for the rehabilitation of partially edentulous case if the case has such amount of abutment teeth remaining with healthy periodontal condition.

Full textAbstract:
The use of dental implants to support fixed or removable restoration is widely used as treatment modality. The advantages are increased retention, chewing ability, and easy access to oral hygiene procedures. A missing tooth that needs to be replaced completely can be restored using an implant-supported crown. The aim of this study is to rehabilitate maxillary partial edentulous with implant supported crown. A 56-year-old female patient came to the clinic, wanted to replace partial edentulous after extraction of 11 and 21, needed fixed restoration in order to eat and chew well, and expected high aesthetic result as well. This patient had experienced using removable partial denture to replace her lost teeth . Patient wanted to have implant treatment with fixed restoration because she felt that her partial denture did not fit anymore, so the prosthodontic treatment option was using implant-supported crowns. Implant supported crown can be an option to replace partial edentulous.

Full textAbstract:
The percentage of completely and partially edentulous patients and their prosthetic treatment at the Department of Substitutive Dental Sciences (SDS), College of Dentistry, University of Dammam, were investigated. Panoramic radiographs and medical records of adult patients (n=479, mean age 45.9 years, and range 25–96 years) treated in 2011–2014 were examined. 6% of the patients were completely edentulous, 8% had single jaw edentulousness, and 74% were partially edentulous. Edentulousness was significantly correlated with age and the number of missing teeth was significantly higher among males (p<0.026). Diabetes was significantly associated with complete edentulousness, single edentulous jaw (p value 0.015), and partial edentulousness (p value 0.023). Kennedy class III was the most frequent class of partial edentulousness in single and/or both jaws (p=0.000). Patients having class I and/or class II were treated most often with removable partial dentures (RPD) (p=0.000), while patients having class III were treated with fixed partial dentures (FPD). It was found that complete edentulousness increases in older age and the number of missing teeth was significantly higher among males. Kennedy class III was most common in both upper and lower jaw and was treated more often with FPD than with RPD.

Introduction: Resting tongue position is of crucial importance in the stability and retention of complete denture, particularly of the mandible. The retracted position of the tongue has been found to be higher in edentulous subjects when compared to dentate subjects and highest in completely edentulous individuals.
 Objectives: To evaluate the resting tongue position in completely edentulous as well as partially edentulous patients.
 Methods: 50 edentulous and 50 partially edentulous (mandible) subjects were taken. The edentulous group was divided into two groups according to the duration of edentulousness. Group A: Recently extracted edentulous subjects (< 1 year), Group B: Long term edentulous subjects (> 1 years). The partially edentulous group was divided into 4 groups according to Kennedy classification. The resting tongue positions of all the individuals were determined. The data was analyzed using SPSS statistical tests like mean, standard deviation, proportion, Chi-square test and Independent T-test.
 Results: In complete edentulous group, the abnormal upper was the most frequent (38%). In partial edentulous group, the normal lower was the most frequently observed tongue position with 34%. The abnormal tongue position was found in 68% and 40% in completely edentulous and partially edentulous subjects respectively.
 Conclusion: Retracted resting tongue position is found to be higher in completely edentulous subjects than partially edentulous ones.

Oral health contributes significantly towards quality of life. Poor oral health and loss of teeth adversely affect the dietary intake and nutrition status. Absence of teeth results in difficulty of chewing food, speech, and aesthetics. Edentulism indicates awareness and oral health of a population. It also reflects the preventive dental treatment, which is provided by the health care and delivery system to the population. The aim of the study is to assess gender distribution among partially edentulous patients using temporary partial dentures. The data was collected from the patient record who visited Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals. Total sample size included was 9,178 patients between the age group 18-90 years old who were partially edentulous and 766 patients who wore temporary partial dentures. Data was tabulated and imported to SPSS for statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics and chi square test was done. There was a statistically significant association between gender distribution among partially edentulous patients and TPD wearers and also between age group distribution among partially edentulous patients and TPD wearers. The present study showed that the most common gender using temporary partial dentures were males (59.6%) in the age group 31-60 years than females (40.33%) of the same age group.

Digitization has slowly become the new conventional technique today offering multiple advantages, its application in the field of implantology and fixed prosthodontics has been time tested, and its gradually being utilized in removable prosthodontics also. Digitization allows digital surveying, designing the framework with components, and obtaining a 3D printed resin framework, which can be tried intraorally and cast using conventional techniques. This technology is time-saving, highly accurate, also allows digital archiving of casts. This case report presents rehabilitation of a partially edentulous mandibular arch opposing completely edentulous maxillary arch using digital technology and casting using conventional technique.

Introduction: Teeth and facial muscles play a very important role in occlusal equilibrium and function. Occlusal derangement, seen in unilateral partially edentulous individuals, has an effect on masseter muscle anatomy and function. The present study aims to evaluate masseter muscle thickness in unilateral partial edentulism. Patients and Methods: Institutional ethics committee approval was obtained before the commencement of the study. The study involved patients who routinely visited the Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology, Sri Ramachandra University. The study sample included 27 unilateral edentulous patients (Group E) and 30 controls (Group C). The masseter muscle thickness was evaluated using high-resolution ultrasound real-time scanner (linear transducer − 7.5–10 MHz) at both relaxed and contracted states. Statistical Analysis Used: The results were analyzed using paired t-test and independent t-test. Duration of edentulism and muscle thickness was assessed using Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: The study patients’ age ranged between 25 and 48 years (mean – 36 years). The comparative evaluation of masseter muscle thickness between the dentulous and edentulous sides of experimental group was statistically significant (P < 0.05). However, no statistically significant difference in masseter muscle thickness was found between the dentulous side of control and experimental groups. The correlation between the duration of partial edentulism and muscle thickness was statistically insignificant. Conclusion: The study proves masseter atrophy in the edentulous side. However, since the difference is found to be marginal with the present sample, a greater sample is necessary to establish and prove the present findings as well as to correlate with the duration of edentulism. Further studies are aimed to assess the muscle morphology after prosthetic rehabilitation.

Full textAbstract:
The maxillary sinus is the largest of the paranasal sinuses, located in the body of the maxillary bone. Its pneumatization process is part of its growth and development. After tooth loss, osteoclastic activity begins in Schneider's membrane, which causes the maxillary sinuses to increase in size, a situation that complicates prosthetic rehabilitation and implant placement. <strong>Objective: </strong>To determine the degree of pneumatic sinus pneumatization based on Carl Misch's classification in partial or edentulous patients treated in a private radiology center in the city of Cuenca diagnosed by CBCT in 2021-2022. <strong>Methodology:</strong> Study of observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional types. Seventy-three cone-beam tomographic studies of total and partially edentulous patients considering the area from canines to second molars were examined, based on Carl Misch's classification, to determine the degree of pneumatization and the depth of the maxillary sinus. <strong>Results:</strong> grade III pneumatization was the most prevalent in 43.41% of the total 129 maxillary sinuses evaluated, a grade IV was mostly in total edentulous (17.05%), and partial edentulous a grade III was more predominant (27.13%). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The relationship between the degree of pneumatization and the depth of the maxillary sinus was evident, determining that there is a relationship between the loss of dental pieces and the pneumatization of the maxillary sinus, and these results can help plan surgical procedures and to take into account possible complications in patients with a higher degree of pneumatization.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of partially edentulous elderly diabetic patients before and after wearing heat-cured acrylic resin and flexible partial dentures.
 BACKGROUND: In the past two decades, an increased concern about the effect of oral conditions on a patient’s quality of life leads to the development of a wide range of OHRQoL measurements. There is a necessity for evaluation required for setting the measurements that are recommended to be used for different needs of geriatric patients.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred partially edentulous bilateral free-end saddle diabetic elderly patients have been randomly selected from the outpatient clinics of the Excellence Centre at National Research Centre. Heat-cured acrylic resin partial denture and flexible removable partial dentures were made for all patients. General oral health assessment questionnaire was completed before and after wearing the two types of partial dentures. The criteria of assessment were speech, mastication and associated pain, esthetics and physiological status, and general life satisfaction and practicing daily activity.
 RESULTS: The results revealed a significant improvement regarding all aspects of OHRQoL after wearing both partial dentures for diabetic elderly patients. More improvement was observed after wearing the flexible one.
 CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicated that OHRQoL in diabetic elderly patients was markedly improved by restoring edentulous spaces using flexible partial dentures than using heat-cured acrylic resin partial dentures.

Removable partial denture are prosthetic solutions that replace missing teeth of partially edentulous patients, ensuring stomatognathic system functionality with affordable costs.The purpose of this study is to analyze the dimensional variations caused by the execution errors, which can lead to premature deterioration of the removable partial dentures and to conclude what sizes are deficient and can lead to the deterioration of the prosthetic part. The material involved in the present study was represented by the metal framework of 181 removable partial dentures. Of the total of 181 removable prosthetic parts, 88 were maxillary prostheses and 93 were mandibular prostheses. Measurements were made at the retentive arms, opposing arms, minor connectors, rests and junction areas between the body of the clasps and the active arms and studied compared to the edentulous classes. The results are focused on dimensional changes of both the retentive arms and the opposing arms of the clasps, which are roughly modeled in the first 3 edentulous classes, with a significant difference from those achieved in Kennedy`s 4th class edentulous, where these segments of the clasps are much shorter. Regarding the size of the rests, although their thickness approximates the values indicated in the literature, they do not fit into the occlusal relief of the tooth. The length of the retentive arms varies according to the classes of edentulous, the clinical situation, but also the size and type of the tooth (premolars, molars) on which the clasp is applied. Regarding the opposing arm, the observed differences cannot be correlated with the objective criteria of their achievement because the attention is directed towards the realization of the retentive arm.

Abstract Rehabilitation of partially edentulous arches with a cast partial denture is a commonly opted treatment modality where fixed prosthesis is not indicated. However, due to the aesthetic compromise of the various metal components when placed in the esthetic zone, different modifications have been considered for its fabrication. This case report describes a novel way of restoring partially edentulous arches with increased masticatory efficiency and good emergence profile without compromising the patient’s esthetic desires. The report describes an aesthetic alternative using thermoplastic denture base clasp like extension for anterior abutment teeth while restoring the missing teeth with a cast partial denture.

An immediate denture is a denture that could replace the teeth immediately after the teeth are extracted. Therefore patient doesn’t experience an edentulous period. This study aims to assess the ability of lower immediate removable partial dentures as a prosthodontic treatment for cases in which anterior teeth have lost their periodontal support. A 35-year-old male patient complained of difficulty eating because his lower front teeth were loose, and the patient did not want to appear edentulous. Intraoral examination showed grade 3 mobility in the lower anterior teeth region. Case management involves anamnesis, clinical examination, and prosthodontics rehabilitation using lower immediate removable partial dentures. This case report concludes that immediate removable partial dentures can be used in anterior teeth that have lost periodontal support.

Full textAbstract:
Edentulism is the state of being edentulous without natural teeth in the oral cavity. Edentulism leads to impairment of normal function, aesthetics, Comfort and speech which is followed by sequelae of undesirable events which includes occlusal discrepancies, migration and spacing of surrounding teeth, loss of space, supra eruption of teeth and temporomandibular disorders. The Variation in the number and location of the edentulous spaces and its complex relation to the remaining tooth structure or the natural teeth constrains the need to classify the partial edentulous arches. The aim of the current study was to assess the frequency of partial edentulism according to Kennedy's classification system. The retrospective study was conducted among the outpatient department of Saveetha Dental College and Hospital from June 2019- august 2019. The patient data was assessed. The data were tabulated using MS-Excel. The data was then analysed using IBM SPSS software (version 20). Pearson's chi-square test was done. Male predilection (62%) was identified in relation to partial edentulism. The most frequently observed edentulism in maxillary and mandibular arch was Kennedy's class III (23% and 21% respectively). While Kennedy class I and II were observed in patients aged between 50-80 years (11% and 14% respectively), whereas Kennedy's class IV was majorly observed among patients aged between 20-30 years (5%) (p<0.05). There was an increased frequency of Kennedy’s class I and II pattern and a decline in Kennedy’s class III and IV with increase in age.

Background: Partial edentulism is the state of loss of one or more but not all natural teeth. Edentulism can affect the esthetics of an individual and can have a negative psychological impact. Recording the frequency of partial edentulism and its nature along with its association with different socio-demographic parameters helps to plan the treatment need and goals of the population in that locality. This cross-sectional study was conducted to find out the frequency of partial edentulism among the patients visiting the dental college of BPKIHS and its teaching district hospitals.
 Methods: Two hundred partially edentulous patients were selected from four hospitals by purposive sampling and their socio-demographic parameters recorded. Intra-oral examination was done to classify partial edentulous spaces according to the Kennedy-Applegate system. Data was analyzed in SPSS version 11.5 and chi-square test was used to determine the association between independent (age-group, gender, socioeconomic status) and dependent variables (number of missing teeth).
 Results: In both the arches, Kennedy’s class III was the most prevalent type of edentulism. In the maxillary arch, 44.5% had Kennedy’s class III edentulism whereas in the mandibular arch 34.5% had Class III. Kennedy’s class IV was least common (4% in maxillary arch and 6.5% in mandibular arch). Forty-five partially edentulous patients above 50 years of age had ≥ 4 teeth missing and 140 were from medium socio-economic status.
 Conclusion: Kennedy’s class III partially edentulous arches were the most prevalent type of edentulousness with periodontal disease as major etiology. It was also seen that people with medium socio-economic status were more affected by tooth loss.

Abstract This is a case report of the restoration of a partially edentulous atrophic anterior maxilla and atrophic mandibular posterior ridges. This case report demonstrates one method for successful treatment of partial edentulism at No. 7 to 10, where interlock attachments on natural cuspids and mini dental implants support an acrylic-based screwless fixed detachable partial denture to provide lip support and masticatory function in the anterior maxilla. The presenting qualities of this case were similar to combination syndrome.

Abstract Aim This clinical report describes the occlusal rehabilitation of a partially edentulous patient with lost vertical dimension. Background The patient did not want a removable partial denture. Implants, fixed restorations with occlusal plane correction, were used to restore the anterior and posterior support and treat the severely worn dentition. However, a partially edentulous patient may be unable to recover normal function, esthetics, comfort, or phonetics with a conventional removable dental prosthesis. The use of dental implants–supported fixed prosthesis offers a multitude of benefits over a tooth–soft tissue supported removable partial denture prosthesis. Summary This clinical report describes an organized approach to an occlusal reconstruction of a severely worn dentition, partially edentulous patient with fixed restorations, implants, occlusal plane correction, and recovery of the vertical dimension. The treatment offered the patient improved esthetics and the restoration of oral function. Clinical Significance The main indications for implant-supported restorations in a partially edentulous patient are the elimination of the freeend distal extension and the benefit from fixed restorations. Success with implant-supported prosthodontics needs the same or more attention to detail and careful treatment planning for conventional fixed prosthodontics; a team approach is recommended.

The various treatment options for the aesthetic and functional rehabilitation of partially edentulous patients are conventional fixed partial dentures, implant supported fixed partial dentures and removable partial dentures. In some cases, removable partial dentures may be the only choice which is available other than implants and fixed partial denture. Removable cast partial dentures are used as definitive removable prostheses when indicated, but location of clasps is not aesthetically pleasant. So, when patient is concerned about aesthetics, flexible partial dentures which is aesthetically superior may be considered. But for the success of flexible removable partial denture, proper diagnosis, treatment planning, insertion, wearing and maintenance of this prosthesis is very important.

Abstract. One of the pressing issues in modern dentistry is the restoration of functional and aesthetic parameters of the dentoalveolar system in cases of complete and partial tooth loss, especially when a significant number of teeth are missing, making it impossible to restore the dental arch with fixed structures or removable partial dentures. In these cases, removable prosthetics become necessary. The study results indicated that removable prostheses fixed on implants are more prognostically favorable for preserving periodontal tissues than conventional full removable plate dentures. Keywords: p late dentures, resilient mucosa, implant-supported prostheses, bar system.

ABSTRACT Dental implant treatment is a common therapy for missing teeth in partial and complete edentulous ridges. Its success depends on the osseointegration of the implant with bone and the presence of abundant soft tissues around it. A peri-implant soft tissue is a major factor for long-term stability with regard to implant restorations. Soft-tissue augmentation procedures often are recommended for gain in keratinized tissue with relation to implant retained prosthesis. In our report, we describe in detail the treatment of mucosal recession associated with crowns placed on implants in the aesthetic region. The long partial edentulous maxillary ridge reconstruction and rehabilitation required several surgical steps for a stable result.

Background and Objectives: Oral rehabilitation seeks to enhance mastication, a vital component of oral function that is compromised by tooth loss. This study aimed to assess the degree of improvement of masticatory performance in partially edentulous patients rehabilitated with removable partial dentures (RPD) or fixed partial dental prosthesis (FPDP). Changes in the occlusal contact area (OCA) and satisfaction with their chewing ability during the adaptation period were also evaluated. Materials and Methods: in total, 34 partially edentulous participants (median age 65.3 years; 56% women) who received an RPD or FPDP were assessed using masticatory performance assay, OCA calculation, and a visual analog scale (VAS). Results: Masticatory performance improved by 20% (range from 17% to 25%, p < 0.05) depending on the edentulism and the rehabilitation types. The OCA improved by 4.7 mm2 (p < 0.05) and satisfaction with the masticatory function improved by 9% (p < 0.05) 3 months after prosthesis insertion. Conclusions: Conventional prostheses benefited partially edentulous individuals, improving masticatory performance by 20%. Treatment also increased the OCA in all types of partial edentulism, except in Kennedy class I patients rehabilitated with RPD. Patients’ satisfaction with their chewing ability only increased in Kennedy class III patients rehabilitated with RPD.

ABSTRACT: Orthodontic Treatment Using Semi-Fixed Appliances with Partial Edentulous 46. Cost is one of the considerations in determining the use of orthodontic appliances. Removable orthodontic appliance is chosen because it is less costly than fixed orthodontic appliances. It is difficult to use removable orthodontic appliances to treat a missing one or more posterior teeth case. A 23 year old female patient had a chief complaint of crowding in lower anterior teeth and forwardly placed upper anterior teeth. Her objective examination shows protrution of upper teeth, crowding in the lower arch, palatal bite, and partial edentulous of 46 tooth. It was Angle Class II division 1 dentoskeletal malocclusion, skeletal class II, bimaxillary protrusion, bidental protrusion, overjet 7,2 mm, crowding, palatal bite, and mouth-breathing habit. The treatment used a combination of semi-fixed orthodontic appliances in the lower arch and removable appliances in the upper arch. The semi-fixed orthodontic appliances were used on space closing of partial edentulous 46. The partial edentulous 46 was closed after 6 months of treatment. The overjet was reduced to 4 mm and overbite 2,7 mm after one year of treatment. The combination of semi-fixed orthodontic appliances in the lower arch and removable appliances in the upper arch generate a good result to correct Angle Class II division 1 malocclusion with partial edentulous 46.

Full textAbstract:
The strong, flexible nature of flexible denture material is perfectly suited to the variety of natural conditions in the mouth, simplifying design and enabling the flexible nylon resin to act as a built-in stress-breaker that provides superior function and stress distribution. Partially edentulous patients with challenging conditions like abused ridges, allergy to denture resins, undercuts due to angulated remaining teeth, cancerous lesions and cleft palate pose a great challenge for the fabrication of a successful removable partial denture. Flexible denture offers a simpler and cost effective treatment for the oral rehabilitation of such cases. Flexible nature of the material allows shifting of the burden of force control from the design features of the appliance to the material properties of the base material. The clinical procedures are simple not requiring any expertise. A cast model prepared from a conventional alginate impression is sent to the laboratory that fabricates the desired prosthesis. The stress distribution of the partial denture is accomplished by flexibility of the major connector, behaving as a stress-breaker. The tissue-supported saddles float on the edentulous ridge independently, without placing a stress load on the abutment teeth. In the long term, the flexibility of the complete or partial denture also appears to act as a tissue conditioner. Flexible partial dentures certainly offer advantages over conventional partials by way of superior aesthetics, better function, durable material and longevity of the prosthesis.

Abstract Numerous long-term studies have shown that treatment with dental implants can provide edentulous patients with a more stable alternative to complete dentures and partially edentulous patients with a more conservative form of tooth replacement than conventional fixed partial dentures. Until recently, commercially available dental implants have been limited to diameters ranging from 3.0 mm to 7.0 mm. Although this range of diameters has been able to address most clinical needs, partially edentulous patients who could not accommodate a 3.0-mm-diameter implant without damaging adjacent dental structures were excluded from implant therapy. This article reports on the surgical treatment and immediate restoration of a patient who received mini implants that were 2.4 mm in diameter.

Objective. Aim of this study was to characterize the protein profile of whole saliva in partial and complete edentulous and determine the changes in salivary protein expression of adults with varying degrees of tooth loss. Methods. In this observational study, unstimulated saliva samples were collected from 80 adults (age 18-73 years), 20 dentulous and 60 edentulous. Partial and complete edentulous patients (EP) were divided into three groups with different number of teeth lost. Concentration and electrophoretic profile (cellulose acetate membrane and polyacrylamide gels) of the salivary proteins were compared between the groups. Results. Total protein and albumin concentration was highest in the group of dentulous patients (DP) and significantly different in PE groups (p<0.0001). A significant difference (p<0.011) was observed in the gamma globulin fraction between PD versus PE and in the electrophoretic profile of salivary proteins between the different groups. A high number of 66 kDa bands was founded in all groups (p=0.049). Conclusions. The concentration and electrophoretic profile of the salivary proteins of DP and EP were different.

Introduction. For partial edentities there are several treatment plan options, dental implants are an excellent restorative option for patients with missing teeth, but not all patients can tolerate implants or cannot afford this treatment plan option. That is why partial prostheses are a much more affordable option in the case of partial edentulous teeth. Background and objectives. The purpose of this study is to highlight in particular the benefits of the flexible partial prosthesis viewed individually or in comparison with the traditional acrylic partial prosthesis. Materials and methods. Between May 2023 and May 2024, 20 patients were selected for this study. Of these, there were patients who were already wearers of traditional acrylate prostheses and who were not satisfied with the traditional prostheses, and the rest presented themselves in the clinic with partial edentulousness and were treated for the first time with partial flexible prostheses. Results. The former wearers of traditional prostheses immediately felt the improvement after applying the flexible prosthesis in the oral cavity, and the patients who benefited from the flexible prosthesis for the first time quickly tolerated wearing it. Conclusions. Flexible partial dentures are not for everyone, but they are an excellent and affordable solutions for many edentulous cases. These prosthetics have their pros and cons, but as the materials evolve and improve, so too might the advantages and drawbacks.

Background: The resorption of the mandibular alveolar bone is a common problem in the edentulous jaw, causing the alveolar ridge to become flat. This can lead to poor complete denture function and an unbalanced occlusion. Therefore, treatment is needed to obtain adequate retention and stability in edentulous mandible. Today, mini implant overdenture using magnetic retention is often used as a treatment for edentulous mandible. Objective: To review the literature on mini implant overden-ture using magnetic retention in prosthodontic cases. Discussion: Implant overdenture is a complete or partial denture covering the implant used as a support. Stability and retention of dentures in the long term can be achieved by using a small diameter implant called mini dental implant that is mounted directly on the alveolar ridge using magnets. Conclusion: Mini implant overdenture can be used in cases of edentulous mandible to obtain good retention and stability.

The benefits of implant supported overdenture are readily apparent for the fully edentulous patients and have been well documented, however, there is deficiency of the studies regarding the combination of implants with removable partial dentures for partially edentulous patients. The purpose of this article is to review the literature concerning implants with removable partial dentures and evaluate the evidence for this clinical approach. Through many clinical case reports and studies we have searched from a broad variety of journals, we present the six considerations needed to contemplate respecting implants with removable partial denture in partially edentulous patients. First, the connection between abutment tooth and removable partial denture has to be rigid and the link between implant and removable partial denture should be hinged. Second, a mesial rest acts better in the point of force distribution for distal extension removable partial denture and splinting between implants is also a favorable choice. Third, T bar has an advantage for implants which are used as abutments in distal extension removable partial denture. Forth, as we all known functional impression is better way to reproduce movement for distal extension removable partial denture. Fifth, indirect retainer and guiding plane on the proximal surfaces of terminal abutment teeth are important in preventing denture base lifting. Sixth, implants in conjunction with removable partial denture is superior in the esthetic and phonetic as well as cost-effective point of view. We also suggest that which place we should install implants for force distribution and which diameter and length of implants should be used. in this review article, we recommend to locate the implant near of the abutment tooth for esthetics or near of first molar position for good stress distribution. The diameter and length of implant also influence to stress distribution. When we compare to conservative partial denture, patients go for removable partial denture using implants due to convenience, better support and retention according to several studies. But it is true that we need to study more on this subject and collect long term follow up cases before we discuss on it. So it is enough to bring this subject into the surface of prosthetic treatment by this article.

ABSTRACTThis case report describes the fabrication of a distal extension removable partial denture (RPD) of a 65-year-old man with implant support. Loss of fibroelasticity of the peripheral tissues and reduced mandibular vestibular sulcular depth due to a previous surgical resection and radiotherapy at the right side were the main clinical factors that created difficulty for denture retention and stability. The fabrication of a mandibular RPD supported by anterior teeth and two bilaterally placed implants in the molar area to convert from Kennedy Class 1 design to Kennedy Class 3 implant-bounded RPD is reported. Retention and stability of the denture were improved with implant support on the distal extension site of the RPD. The common clinical problems about distally extended RPDs are lack of retention and stability due to the movement around the rotational axis. Dental implant placement to the distal edentulous site minimizes the potential dislodgement of the RPD is popular. Implant-supported RPD can be suggested as an advantageous and cost-effective treatment option for the partially edentulous patients.

<strong>Abstract</strong> Combination syndrome (CS) is a dental condition that is generally seen in patients with a fully edentulous maxilla and partially edentulous mandible with preserved anterior teeth. This syndrome is characterised by presence of anterior maxillary resorption in combination with hypertrophic and atrophic changes in different quadrants of maxilla and mandible. This makes it a grueling condition in dentistry that requires significant experience along with advanced restorative and surgical expertise. Conventional treatment with full upper and partial lower dentures for the CS cases are not always acceptable or satisfying for patients and it frequently requires multiple remakes due to continuing bone resorption. Dental implant rehabilitation challenges conventional treatment with bone-anchoring strategies to provide improved retention and stability for implant-retained and supported prostheses. This case report portrays a successful treatment of the edentulous maxilla and partially edentulous mandible in CS patient. The necessity of an interdisciplinary approach for early prevention and treatment of this complex condition is emphasized.

The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the functionality of fixed and removable partial dentures as test interventions in relation to variations in the opposing dentition and their prosthetic restoration. The abstracts identified in the respective databases were screened independently by two investigators. RCTs and uncontrolled studies were considered, provided the patients were included consecutively and the confounding variables were adequately monitored. Seventeen papers were included. The study and publication quality was assessed using a “biometric quality” tool showing an overall poor quality. The reported outcomes, such as survival rates, were in each case obtained from a single study. Two possible trends could be deduced for the endpoint longevity: (a) the first trend in favor of removable partial dentures, compared to fixed partial dentures, with a fully edentulous opposing arch fitted with a removable prosthesis; (b) the second trend in favor of implant-supported partial dentures, compared to conventionally fixed partial dentures, with natural opposing dentition or with a removable partial denture in the opposing arch. No evidence could be generated as to whether, and if so how, variations in the opposing dentition have a bearing on the decision to fit a partially edentulous arch with a fixed or removable partial denture.

Introduction: Edentulousness (partial or complete) is a sequel of tooth loss and is an indicator of the oral health status of a population. Edentulousness has a series of deleterious consequences for oral and general health. The aim of this study was to find out the prevalence of edentulousness among patients visiting the dental unit of a tertiary care centre.
 Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out based on hospital records of patients visiting the Department of Oral Medicine and Prosthodontics of a tertiary care centre from 1 January 2019 to 30 December 2019 to see the prevalence of edentulousness. Ethical approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number: 077/ 078 /40). A convenience sampling method was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
 Results: Among 4697 patients, edentulousness was found in 403 (8.58%) (7.78-9.38, 95% Confidence Interval). Partial edentulous were 263 (65.30%) and complete edentulous were 140 (34.70%). Of the total partial edentulous patient, Kennedy’s class III found in 200 (76.05%) was the most common pattern followed by Kennedy’s class I in 32 (12.17%), class II in 21 (7.98%) and class IV in 10 (3.80%) patients respectively.
 Conclusions: The prevalence of edentulousness was similar to other studies done in similar settings. Since edentulousness is a preventable problem, it should be addressed with high priority.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Mobile tooth is a problem that often occurs and result in tooth loss. It caused by disease or periodontal tissue’s injury. Splint is a device that is made to stabilize or tighten mobile tooth due to a trauma or disease. It works by distribute the occlusion pressure to reduce tooth mobility. Removable partial denture frame is one treatment for missing teeth and permanent splints. Objective: The aim of this treatment is to explained effect of periodontal splints for edentulous patient. Case: First case: A woman complained mobile teeth on the incisors. Intraoral examination showed remaining teeth couldn’t be abutment. Second case: A woman complained mobile teeth on the incisors. Intraoral examination showed remaining teeth could be abutment. Case management: First case: Patient was given initial therapy and continued with rehabilitative therapy by removable partial denture metal frame. Second case: Patient was given initial therapy splinting using fiber reinforced composite. A week post treatment patient felt comfortable. Conclusion: It can be concluded periodontal splinting reduced teeth mobility and prevent further damage to the periodontal tissue og Edentulous patient.
