  • Title: Periodontal considerations in prosthodontic treatment.
    Author: Nevins M.
    Journal: Curr Opin Periodontol; 1993; ():151-6. PubMed ID: 8401838.
    Abstract:
    This paper reviews the relationship of periodontics to restorative dentistry. Specific emphasis is placed on the relationship of the restorative margin to the periodontium and the frequent need to alter the placement of the gingival margin so that the restoration will be constructed on sound tooth structure. The prognosis of the sectioned multirooted tooth and other alternatives of treating a shortened dental arch are considered. However, all treatment modalities conclude that a compliant patient and a strong periodontal maintenance program are integral to success, which, with a coordinated effort by the periodontist and the restorative dentist, best assures a successful long-term dental treatment.
