Making a difference. - ArticleRichard GE, Sarka RJ, Arnold RM, Knowles KI.J Prosthet Dent. 1977 Jul;38(1):16-21.A preventive prosthodontic technique has been described which utilizes hemisected teeth for overdenture support. This multidiscipline procedure provides firm denture support and preserves posterior residual alveolar ridges. By retaining posterior roots, proprioceptive mechanisms are maintained, and psychologically, the patient does not seem edentulous. As Brewer and Fenton stated, "The application of this method of treatment is limited only by the imagination of the dentist."
