Periodontal Management of Inadequate Interocclusal Edentulous Space-A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Contemporary Medicine and Dentistry - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Location of the osseous crest in relation to a restorative margin is the most critical reference point for both the periodontist and restorative prosthetic dentist. The periodontal structures should be preserved during tooth preparation and it must provide a sufficient space to establish a healthy, long lasting and esthetic restoration. Ostectomy and Osteoplasty are the procedures that permits successful placement of prosthesis with good prognosis by preservation of adequate bone. This case report presents a surgical approach where ostectomy and osteoplasty were performed along with crown lengthening with the help of mechanical and hand instruments for the reduction of the alveolar ridge and increase of clinical crown length by preserving biological width.
