[Use of an overdenture in the prosthetic correction in a patient with cleft palate].
A fourty-year old male patient with cleft palate had been operated on four times in his childhood in order to close the defect. The shrinked dental arch and the pseudoprogenia, remaining after the operation, caused problems in the mastication and esthetic defects to the patient. With the help of an overdenture a new dental arch was created, in this way the pseudoprogenia could be eliminated, the facial harmony and the mastication could be restored.
