Title: Removable prostheses revisited: challenges for primary dental care. 2. Partial dentures. Author: Preston AJ. Journal: Prim Dent Care; 2007 Jul; 14(3):85-8. PubMed ID: 17650382. Abstract: This is the second in a series of three papers. Its topic, the provision of removable prostheses, remains a significant aspect of primary dental care. In the recent past and in the near future, there have been and will be significant influences on how removable prostheses are provided for patients in the United Kingdom (UK). In this paper, the trends in partial edentulousness in the UK will be summarised and the important changes that are likely to influence removable partial denture provision will be outlined. The paper will then provide an update of clinical procedures in the provision of removable partial dentures. A third paper will consider overdentures.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
