Title: Prosthodontic Rehabilitation of an Ectodermal Dysplasia Patient with Implant Telescopic Crown Attachments. Author: Alsayed HD, Alqahtani NM, Levon JA, Morton D. Journal: J Prosthodont; 2017 Oct; 26(7):622-627. PubMed ID: 28865133. Abstract: Telescopic crown attachments have been successfully used in completely and partially edentulous patients. This type of attachment provides retention, support, and stability with optimal hygiene for the removable dental prosthesis (RDP). With the emergence of CAD/CAM technology, telescopic crown attachments can be virtually designed and milled precisely to ensure a passive fit of the attachment parts and maximal functionality of the RDP. This article reviews both the clinical outcome and prosthodontic rehabilitation of telescopic crown attachments of an edentulous ectodermal dysplasia patient with solitary rigid conical telescopic crown attachments.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
