PROSTHETIC-PERIODONTAL INTERRELATIONSHIP

The interrelationship between prosthetics and periodontics is critical for achieving long-term oral health and functional rehabilitation. Periodontal health provides the biological foundation on which successful prosthetic restorations depend while well-designed prostheses help maintain periodontal stability by ensuring proper contours margins and occlusal harmony. Poorly planned or ill-fitting restorations can lead to plaque accumulation gingival inflammation and further periodontal breakdown. Hence a multidisciplinary approach that integrates periodontal therapy with prosthetic planning is essential for optimal aesthetics function and longevity of dental treatment.
