title: [Periodontal aspects of removable partial dentures].
abstract: Periodontal pre-treatment of patients receiving partial dentures should involve three phases: initial therapy; periodontal surgery; home care. For periodontal surgery and/or prosthodontic treatment using precision materials, e.g. telescope retainers, the API (approximal plaque index) should not exceed 30%. To prevent further loss of gingival attachment due to iatrogenic irritation by the dentures preparation of abutments should consistently the para- or supragingival. In patients with few residual teeth telescope retainers, which can be cemented for definitive fit if indicated, are the treatment of choice.
