Restorative Dentistry, The National University of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, MYS.

Rehabilitating the occlusion of a patient with multiple missing posterior teeth may be challenging, especially when the remaining teeth are malaligned with loss of occlusal vertical dimension. A telescopic denture can be an excellent treatment alternative. In this case, the patient requested an aesthetic maxillary denture with no visible metal clasps when smiling. Hence, two telescopic crowns were placed on the anterior abutment teeth serving as the retentive components of the maxillary cobalt-chromium removable partial denture. Additional retention was obtained from the posterior abutment teeth. The patient was satisfied with the final restored occlusion and appearance.
