surgical procedures, Periodontal therapy, Correction of
occlusal plane, Orthodontic correction, Splinting
weakened teeth

Differential Diagnosis
Fixed OR Removable Dental Prosthesis
Indications for fixed restorations
– Tooth-bounded edentulous regions
– Modification spaces
– Anterior modification spaces
– Replacement of unilaterally missing molars
(SDA)
Indications for removable restorations
– Distal extension situations
– After recent extractions
– Long span
– Need for effect of bilateral stabilization
– Excessive loss of residual bone
– Unusually sound abutment teeth
– Abutments with guarded prognosis
– Economic considerations
