Treatment options for patients with severe attrition resulting in reduced occlusal vertical dimension are often limited to fixed prosthesis to reestablish proper occlusal vertical dimension and functional occlusion. In some cases such as when there are limited finances, minimal esthetic concerns, and medical considerations fixed prosthesis may not be the ideal treatment option. Overlay removable partial dentures (ORPDs) can be used as a provisional or interim prosthesis as well as permanent prosthesis in these cases. While ORPDs can provide a reversible and relatively inexpensive treatment for patients with a significantly compromised dental status, there is not much scientific evidence in the literature on ORPDs. Most studies published on ORPDs to date are primarily reviews and clinical reports. In this article, literatures on ORPDs are summarized and a patient treated with interim and permanent ORPDs is presented. This article reviews previously published literatures on the use of ORPDs. Indications, advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Treatment protocol with an example of the prosthodontic treatment of a patient with severely worn dentition with an interim ORPD and later a permanent ORPD are discussed in details.

Loss of occlusal vertical dimension is a frequently observed problem in the middle aged and aged population who intends to retain their natural dentition. This type of patient has very few treatment options one of which is overdenture. In this case report, a patient was treated with overlay removable partial denture for restoring the lost vertical dimension. This was provided as interim prosthesis. The follow up was done to observe the fulfillment of desired results. The clinical and laboratory procedure is described briefly. The treatment used for this case is cost effective and conservative solution for esthetic and functional rehabilitation. Since the material is acrylic resin, long term wear resistance is crucial for success of treatment. The rehabilitation would be fixed prosthesis with newly adjusted vertical dimension.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cdcj.v9i1.11835 City Dental College Journal Vol.9(1) 2012 28-31

ABSTRACT A 66-year-old man visited our department with the chief complaint of poor esthetics due to loss of a fixed partial denture in a maxillary incisor tooth and difficulty in mastication due to an ill-fitting, mandibular removable partial denture. An analysis of the occlusal vertical dimension resulted in a diagnosis of infraocclusion. After increasing vertical dimension with a provisional restoration and treatment denture which covered the attritioned surface, a definitive prosthesis was applied. Untreated loss of molars and severe attrition of the remaining teeth caused infraocclusion in this patient, which increased occlusal loading on the incisor teeth and induced detachment of the prosthesis in the maxillary incisors. Esthetic appearance was improved and masticatory dysfunction restored by increasing vertical dimension and oral rehabilitation. Mildly invasive prosthetic treatment involved application of a removable partial denture which covered the attritioned surface, not only infraocclusion but masticatory dysfunction and poor esthetics were also treated.

Abstract Aim This clinical report describes the occlusal rehabilitation of a partially edentulous patient with lost vertical dimension. Background The patient did not want a removable partial denture. Implants, fixed restorations with occlusal plane correction, were used to restore the anterior and posterior support and treat the severely worn dentition. However, a partially edentulous patient may be unable to recover normal function, esthetics, comfort, or phonetics with a conventional removable dental prosthesis. The use of dental implants–supported fixed prosthesis offers a multitude of benefits over a tooth–soft tissue supported removable partial denture prosthesis. Summary This clinical report describes an organized approach to an occlusal reconstruction of a severely worn dentition, partially edentulous patient with fixed restorations, implants, occlusal plane correction, and recovery of the vertical dimension. The treatment offered the patient improved esthetics and the restoration of oral function. Clinical Significance The main indications for implant-supported restorations in a partially edentulous patient are the elimination of the freeend distal extension and the benefit from fixed restorations. Success with implant-supported prosthodontics needs the same or more attention to detail and careful treatment planning for conventional fixed prosthodontics; a team approach is recommended.

A dimensão vertical de oclusão é descrita como a altura do terço inferior da face enquanto existe o máximo de contatos posteriores entre os dentes, e, sua diminuição é ocasionada pela perda total ou parcial de dentes posteriores. O objetivo do presente trabalho é relatar um caso clínico de restabelecimento da dimensão vertical de oclusão através da confecção de prótese parcial removível overlay. Paciente compareceu à clínica odontológica da Universidade Nilton Lins queixando-se da aparência do seu rosto, aspecto do sorriso, dentes desgastados e dificuldade de alimentar-se. Ao exame extraoral, observou-se aprofundamento do sulco-nasogeniano, diminuição de altura do terço inferior da face e ausência de pontos de gatilho. Ao exame intraoral constatou-se extensa reabsorção óssea no arco inferior, ausência de todos os dentes posteriores do arco inferior, e, a presença de desgastes e fraturas dentárias em ambos os arcos. Após os exames, constatou-se a presença de desarmonia oclusal e diminuição da dimensão vertical de oclusão. Foram realizados planejamento e enceramento de diagnóstico com o objetivo de restabelecer a oclusão ideal perdida. Optou-se então pela confecção de próteses temporárias removíveis overlay com encaixe sobre a estrutura dentária remanescente. O tratamento executado mostrou-se satisfatório, pois devolveu as funções e altura do terço inferior da face perdidas, sendo capaz de preparar o paciente e o sistema estomatognático para execução do procedimento reabilitador definitivo.Descritores: Dimensão Vertical; Ajuste Oclusal; Perda de Dente, Prótese Parcial Temporária.ReferênciasCardoso SV, Teixeira AR, Baltezan RL, Olchik RM.

Overlay removable partial denture can be used as an interim prosthesis for the patients who have lost their occlusal vertical dimension due to moderate to severe attrition resulting in functional and esthetic problems. This prosthesis is believed to allow neuromuscular adjustments to a newly adjusted VDO and also to observe the function and esthetics. ORPDs provide reversible and relatively inexpensive treatment for the patients who have limitations. In this case report, a patient was treated with overlay removable partial denture for restoring the lost vertical dimension. This article reviews indication, advantage, disadvantages of ORPDs. Though there are esthetic and functional limitations with potential risk of material fracture, all patients with severely worn dentition with decreased VDO and missing teeth should be offered this treatment option. Regular recall and maintenance visit are essential for long term success of ORPDs.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cdcj.v9i1.11834 City Dental College Journal Vol.9(1) 2012 23-27
