Metal supported telescopic acrylic based fixed and removable dentures: a case report.
J Pak Dent Assoc Jan ;16(1):50-4.

Providing a stable, long lasting, aesthetic and affordable prosthetic replacement to a patient having stringent and uncompromising requirements can be technically difficult, especially when such a patient presents with a series of previous unacceptable dentures. This article is a case report in which prosthetic replacements are reinforced with metal frame substructures which telescopically seat on metal copings cemented on the remaining abutments. The patient is an 82 year old male, concerned equally about restoring function and aesthetics, with a hypersensitive gag reflex and previous ill-fitting broken dentures.
