Abstract:
Successful use of an overdentures prosthesis depends on the successful completion and maintenance of endodontically-treated teeth. The process of completion and maintenance of teeth so treated in elderly individuals is difficult and less predictable. The purpose of this paper is to discuss treatment considerations to enhance success when treating elderly candidates for endodontic overdenture abutment retention.
