Abstract
Complete or partial tooth-supported overdentures offer several advantages over traditional dentures, including better stability and retention, preservation of remaining alveolar bone, and enhanced sensory input from periodontal receptors. These benefits contribute to improved function, psychological well-being, and overall patient biological health. The use of extra coronal attachments allows for a secure connection while permitting some degree of movement, which helps distribute stress more evenly and enhances the comfort and functionality of the denture. This article describes a clinical case report of rehabilitating a partially edentulous patient and fabrication of a tooth-supported maxillary partial overdenture and mandibular complete overdenture using Zest attachments.
