Abstract：
Treatment of pediatric patients with partial anodontia is a challenge requiring interdisciplinary approach. Growth period, reduced vertical dimension, microdontia, and unacceptable esthetics present difficulties at various stages of prosthetic rehabilitation. Congenital absence of teeth impairs the nutritional status of the growing child and causes a psychological setback. This article describes the prosthetic management of a patient suffering from partial anodontia done over a period of 10 years. Considering the age and psychological and financial requirements of the patient, removable and fixed prostheses were fabricated at different phases of the treatment. The ultimate aim was restoration of function, improvement of esthetics, and overall psychological upliftment of the patient which was achieved by maxillary metal ceramic bridge and mandibular implant retained hybrid prosthesis.
摘要：
儿童部分牙齿缺失的治疗是一个挑战，需要跨学科的方法。生长期,减少垂直维度，microdontia,和不可接受的美学在假肢康复的各个阶段都存在困难。先天性牙齿缺失会损害成长中的孩子的营养状况，并导致心理上的挫折。本文介绍了在10年的时间内对患有部分牙齿缺失症的患者进行的修复处理。考虑到患者的年龄以及心理和财务要求，在治疗的不同阶段制造可移动和固定的假体。最终目标是恢复功能，提高美学，通过上颌金属陶瓷桥和下颌植入物保留的混合假体实现了患者的整体心理提升。
