Abstract

A rationale and compendium of treatment for a specific situation of cases have been presented. It consists of a cast metal bar called a truss bar joint removable denture which is soldered to crowns and dowel core on a few remaining teeth, i.e., cuspids or bicuspids. This system gives additional support and retention to the individual teeth and makes possible a more stable removable denture. It is my opinion that the prognosis of the chosen cases may be obtained Successful results when applied on the teeth of less favorable crown-root ratio.
