Abstract

Patient: The patient was a 78-year-old female who complained of difficulty of mastication at first dental examination. A bridge restoration was attached, but dental caries and periodontitis were seen with the dental articulation collapsed and advanced fluctuation. Therefore oral rehabilitation with applied Cone-crown Telescope was done. During 5-year follow-up, her prosthesis presented no problems.
Discussion: By the above prosthesis attachment, the secondary fixation effect, prevention of Occlusal-trauma by bite-plane continuity using rigid support, could prevent periodontal disease with sanitary prosthesis.
Conclusion: Occlusal reconstruction with Cone-crown Telescope therapy is a useful method that allows biting-force support mainly by periodontal ligament, and facilitates plaque control.
