Dr. Radhika Lekhi, Dr Kunwarjeet Singh, Dr Shambhavi Shukla, Dr Akash Raj Sharma

Abstract :

Removable partial or complete overdentures supported by roots of natural teeth have more predictable prosthodontic outcomes as compare to conventional removable complete dentures or simple acrylic resin partial dentures (flipper) because of increased support, stability and retention and decrease in rate of residual ridge resorption due to presence of teeth(roots) and periodontal ligament. So preserving few remaining teeth/roots and faicating an overdenture is always a better option as compare to extraction of remaining teeth and faication of acrylic RPD or denture.
