Prosthetic Rehabilitation Using Broadricks Plane Analyser and Magnet Retained Mandibular Overdenture

Abstract

Complete denture designs have been modified to gain additional support and stability from few retained natural teeth and later using attachment and thus by modifying it into an overdenture design. The different attachments are bar, stud/ball and magnet. Patients with retained natural teeth under denture can masticate more effectively and transfer the occlusal load to the bone with better neuromuscular feedback through the periodontal ligament, thereby prevent resorption of remaining alveolar and inter-radicular bone present around the roots. This case report describes an easy way of fabrication of magnet retained overdenture and rehabilitation of maxillary arch with fixed partial dentures.
