  • Title: [Improvement of oral rehabilitation prosthetic techniques thanks to orthodontics].
    Author: Lies C, Fernandez S, Limme M, Vanheusden A.
    Journal: Rev Med Liege; 2008 Oct; 63(10):609-14. PubMed ID: 19009969.
    Abstract:
    This clinical case underlines the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, prosthetic and orthodontic, for the achievement of an oral rehabilitation treatment plan. Preliminary orthodontic treatment has significantly improved, the position of some natural teeth, which can serve or not as a prosthetic abutment. This has produced a direct prosthetic benefit by limiting tissue reduction for preparation and by giving a better biomechanical and functional context to the restoration.Thus, after an orthodontic treatment step, lasting a year and a half, using both removable appliance and fixed appliance, prosthetic rehabilitation was possible. This included a fixed prosthesis and a removable prosthesis that gave a very satisfying an esthetic result and good masticatory function.
