Description

<p>Patient: A 62-year-old female complained of gingival swelling, pus drainage, and a masticatory disorder caused by an ill-fitting mandibular denture. After the initial extraction of hopeless teeth, maxillary and mandibular immediate dentures were inserted to restore function and esthetics. Periodontal treatment was then completed. Finally, prosthetic treatment with electroformed telescopic crown-retained dentures satisfied the patient’s functional and esthetic requirements and provided stable occlusion.</p><p>Discussion: The load on the periodontally weakened abutment teeth was reduced because the electroformed crowns had appropriate retention and stabilization, rigid splinting action, and better stress distribution. Furthermore, use of a dynamic impression increased the available support for the denture base.</p><p>Conclusion: In this case, prosthodontic treatment using electroformed telescopic crown-retained dentures effectively restored masticatory function and esthetics, helping to achieve a favorable outcome.</p>
