Abstract

Dental Implants Dental Materials Dental Prosthesis, Implant-Supported Denture, Complete Denture, Partial Tooth, Artificial
Wear of artificial teeth is the most common complication associated with an implant-supported fixed complete denture (ISFCD). This wear alters the occlusal scheme, with loss of eccentric occlusal balance and vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO). This clinical report describes the fabrication of a new maxillary removable complete denture opposing an existing ISFCD with occlusal modifications. Both prostheses received splinted zirconia crowns cemented with composite resin cement.
