[Technical treatment considerations in making prostheses for children. Child prostheses--Part 2]

Abstract

The rehabilitation of a child's dentition with a removable prosthesis is more complex and time consuming, when comparing it to the one of adults. Prerequisite for a successful treatment is a careful consideration of age-related, technical, functional and psychological aspects. The aesthetic and functional replacement of the missing teeth using a removable prosthesis results in an increased self-esteem for the young patients. This case report describes the management of a young child as well as the treatment planning and the prosthetic rehabilitation process.
