Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Prosthodontics

Background:

  • A 68-year-old female patient experienced difficulty chewing and poor aesthetics due to missing teeth.
  • The patient desired to preserve natural teeth and minimize prosthesis tissue coverage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case study on the use of a palate-free maxillary telescopic complete denture and a mandibular removable partial denture.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of telescopic dentures as an alternative to conventional complete dentures.

Main Methods:

  • A 68-year-old female patient received a palate-free maxillary telescopic complete denture and a mandibular removable partial denture.
  • Implant-supported prostheses were excluded due to patient age and cost considerations.

Main Results:

  • The patient reported satisfaction with occlusion, aesthetics, phonetics, and comfort after 24 hours, 1 week, and 1 month.
  • The telescopic denture provided better retention, stability, and chewing efficiency compared to conventional dentures.
  • The prosthesis minimized tissue coverage and improved force distribution.

Conclusions:

  • Telescopic overdentures are a favorable treatment option, overcoming limitations of conventional complete dentures.
  • They offer enhanced retention, stability, chewing efficiency, and patient comfort while reducing alveolar bone resorption.
  • Telescopic dentures represent an excellent alternative for patients seeking improved oral function and aesthetics.
