Simple, Reliable and Esthetic

We were lead to treat a 57 year-old female patient in order to find a solution to her mandibular clinical situation. Following the extraction of teeth 35 and 47, her present stellite no longer offers the function and stability required and moreover, the aesthetic aspect needed to be improved. The remaining teeth did not show any mobility and the patient’s overall health was good. A fixed restoration would have been possible, however, the patient did not want to undergo a tedious surgical treatment to install implants. Consequently, she chose a removable restoration with attachments, which was more suited to her wishes.
