Abstract

Patient: A 68-year-old woman visited our clinic for mastication-related and esthetic issues. After extracting unsalvageable teeth, treatment prostheses were fabricated. After functional and morphological evaluation of the treatment prostheses, upper and lower telescopic dental prostheses were fabricated.

Discussion: Telescopic dental prostheses were used to provide secondary fixation to the remaining mandibular teeth, thereby improving the denture stability, mastication, and esthetics.

Conclusion: Upper and lower telescopic dental prostheses restored masticatory function and improved esthetics in a patient with multiple missing teeth, leading to high satisfaction.
