Resumo: | Purpose: Edentulism is a common condition among the elderly population. However, it is difficult for elderly subjects who are institutionalized, hospitalized, or bedridden to visit dental offices for the repair or replacement of broken dentures. This paper describes a fast technique with minimum clinical sessions to fabricate a new maxillary denture. Case description: An institutionalized 78-year-old man with an extremely damage broken maxillary denture complained about repairing his denture. With the impossibility of repairing, the technique described was proposed so as to offer a treatment that would maximize the comfort of the patient. The maxilla-mandibular relationship was done at the first clinical session, after fabricating the maxillary resin baseplate in mouth, by fixing the old complete mandibular denture with the maxillary wax plane. At the second clinical session, the esthetics and function of artificial teeth was checked and final impression was made to the denture installation at next session. Conclusion: The reduced number of clinical sessions is a convenient option for clinicians to provide a more comfortable treatment for institutionalized or bedridden patients. This technique is also particularly useful when a replacement denture is urgently required, allowing its installation within few hours. |

Entretanto, quando estes indivíduos encontram-se institucionalizados, hospitalizados ou acamados, consultar um cirurgião-dentista para reparo ou substituição de próteses totais pode ser uma situação difícil. Neste caso, é relatada uma técnica mais rápida para confecção de uma prótese total superior em um número mínimo de sessões clínicas. Descrição do caso: Indivíduo institucionalizado de 78 anos de idade, apresentando uma prótese extremamente danificada após deixá-la cair sobre o chão, queixava de necessidade de reparo na mesma. Na impossibilidade de reparo, foi proposta esta técnica descrita para oferecer um tratamento com maior conforto para o paciente. O relacionamento maxilo-mandibular foi feito na primeira sessão clínica, após confeccionar a base de prova diretamente em boca, fixando a própria prótese inferior do paciente com o plano de cera. Na segunda sessão clínica, a prova estética e funcional é feita e a moldagem final realizada para instalação da prótese na sessão seguinte. Conclusão: O número reduzido de sessões clínicas é uma opção conveniente para os clínicos e gera um tratamento mais confortável para indivíduos institucionalizados ou acamados. Esta técnica também pode ser útil para substituição de prótese total em caráter de urgência, onde a prótese pode ser instalada no mesmo dia ou no dia seguinte.EDIPUCRS - Editora Universitária da PUCRS2011-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/9317Revista Odonto Ciência; Vol. 26 No. 3 (2011); 267 - 271Revista Odonto Ciência; v. 26 n. 3 (2011); 267 - 2711980-65230102-9460reponame:Revista odonto ciência (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSenghttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/9317/6891Senna, Plinio MendesSotto-Maior, Bruno SallesSilva-Neto, João PauloSanchez-Ayala, AlfonsoDel Bel Cury, Altair Antoninhainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-11-11T11:52:29Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/9317Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/foPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/oai||odontociencia@pucrs.br1980-65230102-9460opendoar:2013-11-11T11:52:29Revista odonto ciência (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false |
