About

The use of fixed dentures in prosthetic treatment requires a thorough analysis of clinical factors such as: the condition of the abutments subject to grinding procedures, the degree of their loosening, the extent of missing teeth, and the condition of the periodontal tissues. An important step in prosthetic treatment is planning subsequent procedures, including the grinding of the crowns of the natural teeth. Often, the initial stages of gingivitis are not visible during a clinical examination [1-4].
