Maxillary segmental osteotomies for mandibular removable partial denture patients.

D R McArthur, T A Turvey

    The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry
    |April 1, 1979

    Summary

    Posterior maxillary osteotomy offers a flexible treatment for dentofacial issues. This technique is also valuable for constructing removable partial dentures, as demonstrated in a patient case.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Restorative Dentistry
    • Orthodontics

    Background:

    • Dentofacial deformities require diverse surgical solutions.
    • Removable partial dentures present unique restorative challenges, especially in distal-extension cases.
    • Posterior maxillary osteotomy is an established surgical technique.

    Observation:

    • The posterior maxillary osteotomy was evaluated for its application in complex restorative cases.
    • A specific patient case involving bilateral distal-extension removable partial denture construction was analyzed.
    • The surgical procedure's adaptability was observed in managing specific anatomical and functional needs.

    Findings:

    • Posterior maxillary osteotomy serves as a viable alternative for treating various dentofacial conditions.
    • The study details the successful integration of this osteotomy in the prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with bilateral distal-extension edentulism.
    • This surgical approach facilitates improved outcomes in removable partial denture fabrication.

    Implications:

    • This surgical approach expands treatment options for patients with significant maxillary deficiencies.
    • It offers a predictable method for enhancing the stability and function of removable partial dentures.
    • Clinicians can consider posterior maxillary osteotomy as an adjunct to prosthetic treatment for complex cases.
