The probability that a patient will have kept all teeth 10 years after insertion is 80%. The telescope double crown system is a versatile and successful way of achieving the long-term restoration of the partially edentulous jaw. Insertion and removal of the denture and routine oral hygiene are easy to perform, even for patients with limited manual dexterity. As a full-arch reconstruction, the telescope crown denture system enables easy adjustment, modification, and relining with low follow-up costs.
The Telescopic Bridge
The telescopic bridge or prosthesis is a dual supported ( teeth and gums ) removable coverage restoration designed to fit over your natural teeth and gum areas in order to replace missing teeth.
The telescopic denture consists of:
the primary crowns or caps made of precious or non precious dental alloys that will be cemented on the prepped teeth
the secondary crowns (dental alloys) that are slipping over the primary caps and thus maintaining the bridge through sliding friction tight on the teeth. The secondary crowns have facings (surfaces) of acrylic resin with ceramic fillers
(the framework made out of non precious dental alloy is embedded in plastic (acrylic resin) and supports the acrylic teeth which will replace the own missing teeth. )
The best results are obtained when primary and secondary crowns are made of gold or precious dental alloys. If you would like to save, our specialised partner dental lab can also use non precious alloys for the primary and secondary crowns.
