Abstract
Patient: A 72-year-old female patient presented to the prosthetic department of our hospital to request prosthetic planning after the extraction of a hopeless mandibular right first molar. The patient selected the removable bridge with magnetic bar attachment from several treatment options in consideration of the ease of oral care and repair, setting feeling, and the lateral and rotational stress release of abutment teeth.
Discussion: The patient was highly satisfied with the bridge. The retentive force was excellently maintained four years and nine months later. The bridge was placed in the mouth among mastication. The oral hygiene maintenance was easily maintained.
Conclusion: It was suggested that the removable bridge with magnetic bar attachment could be an option of the prosthetic treatment for dentate elderly patients to make oral care and repaires easier.
