[Use of telescopes for rehabilitation with removable dentures. 2. Clinical examples].

Abstract

The purpose of these clinical cases is to show the advantages of coping abutments in fixed and removable partial denture reconstructions. These cases try to gather the largest indications for this technique. The emphasis is put on many positive points of this type of reconstruction: control and easy maintenance via an optimal accessibility to the abutments; may be used in complex rehabilitations combined with other types of attachments; easy insertion of the removable partial denture by the patient; improvement in the prognosis for cases that cannot be treated with fixed prosthodontics and precision attachments. A good aesthetic result can be achieved and gives expectation for an encouraging future for this type of well-made reconstruction.
