title: Screwless fixed detachable partial overdenture treatment for atrophic partial edentulism of the anterior maxilla.
abstract: This is a case report of the restoration of a partially edentulous atrophic anterior maxilla and atrophic mandibular posterior ridges. This case report demonstrates one method for successful treatment of partial edentulism at No. 7 to 10, where interlock attachments on natural cuspids and mini dental implants support an acrylic-based screwless fixed detachable partial denture to provide lip support and masticatory function in the anterior maxilla. The presenting qualities of this case were similar to combination syndrome.
