This article presents a design to convert a partial removable dental prosthesis (PRDP) from Kennedy class II to class III using a dental implant. Incorporating semiprecision attachments, this design provides desired esthetics, phonetics, and function.

Review
Very high survival/success rates have been reported for implant treatment, irrespective of the prosthetic type of reconstruction, be those full arcs, partial dentures, combined tooth implants or single crowns. However, survival/success is commonly reported in simple Cumulative Survival/Success Rate (CSR) tables only that may overestimate the true clinical outcome; furthermore, future challenges to clinical success may originate from too rapid launching of untested novelties or recommendations to apply too bold clinical procedures, potential problems that are summarised in the present paper.

Making an intraoral digital scan of the emergence profile is a clinical challenge. The peri-implant soft tissue collapses after removal of an interim prosthesis, which compromises the correct design of a definitive implant-supported prosthesis. Although techniques are available for digitally reducing such a distortion, achieving a correct alignment of scans to replicate the internal and external characteristics of the peri-implant tissue is still challenging. This article describes an alternative technique for achieving a precise alignment of the peri-implant soft tissue emergence profile generated with an interim prosthesis.

Review
An occlusal system that does not function well, has a negative impact on the functional level of the oral system and the orofacial system. In purely mechanical terms, a limited anatomical reduction of the occlusal system has limited implications for the functional level since the occlusal system has several forms of adaptation, reserve, and compensation. However, following the loss of (parts of) teeth, an occlusal system may be anatomically reduced to such an extent that restoration of the functional level is required, for instance by the use of implant-supported single- and multiple-unit fixed dental prostheses. The mechanical strength of a tooth and a single-tooth fixed dental prosthesis on a similar tooth type is not essentially different. But the same cannot be said of the mechanical strength of a multiple-unit fixed dental prosthesis, because the strength is controlled by the mechanoreceptors in the periodontal ligaments of the abutment teeth. This control system is disturbed by the insufficiency of or, when oral implants are involved, the absence of mechano-receptors. It is unknown whether this is causing noticeable problems.

A custom abutment produced from a digital scan can be used to develop an implant-supported prosthesis with ideal contours. A scan body is used to obtain information about the location of the implant fixture, and the scan body has a special scan region that facilitates superimposition. This dental technique indirectly obtains the margin of the definitive prosthesis by designing the special scan region on a custom abutment and superimposing prescanned abutment data onto intraoral scanned data.

Implant retained overdentures are being increasingly utilised in both general and specialist practice to rehabilitate patients with missing teeth, particularly those that are edentate. This article aims to inform the reader of a variety of retention systems that are available to retain an implant overdenture and to understand how these systems work, their advantages and disadvantages and to outline some of the clinical and treatment planning considerations involved in selecting the most appropriate retention system for patients.
