Removable Partial Dentures: The Lost Art

Preat Corporation

Traditionally, removable partial dentures are not easy to present to patients because, too often, they don’t enhance the patient’s esthetics. Tom Bormes covers a new patented technology where the first tooth in the removable partial denture becomes a veneered pontic that matches and blends with the veneered crown(s) on the retaining abutment—making it part of the removable partial, not a cantilever. He also discusses how to fabricate and market Preci-Vertix, castable spherical attachments, CEKA and I.C.
