A male patient, aged 48<!--> <!-->years old, came to the prosthodontic clinics seeking replacement of the maxillary anterior teeth. After clinical and radiographic examination the treatment plan included extraction of the offending teeth (#13 and #24), the necessary wait for healing to occur, and providing the patient with a definitive partial denture. The esthetic appearance was of the utmost importance for the patient. Therefore, the treatment plan was modified to construct a transitional partial denture to be inserted following teeth extraction during the same appointment. A tissue-conditioning material of suitable thickness was applied on the tissue surface of the denture limited to the extraction area. Application of the resilient materials in such a manner may be more effective and should fulfill all the intended uses appropriately.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101249,"journal":{"name":"The Saudi Journal for Dental Research","volume":"8 1","pages":"Pages 112-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.sjdr.2016.10.002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91760957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
