Abstract:

Patients with periodontitis have damaged periodontium and a relatively unstable periodontal state, making the restoration of their missing teeth a difficult task. The risks and challenges brought by periodontitis of different stages to restorative work vary and thus must be clarified. Sufficient periodontal treatment preparation, grasping the restoration opportunity, and evaluating the retention value of the teeth before restorative treatment are also key factors affecting restoration success. Removable partial denture, fixed partial denture, and implant supported denture are often used to restore missing teeth in patients with periodontitis. This study reviews the clinical considerations and prognosis evaluation of prosthetic therapy in patients with periodontitis to provide theoretical basis for its clinical application.

Key words: periodontitis, dentition defect, prosthetic therapy
