What is a telescopic overdenture?<br />A Telescopic Denture is a removable overdenture which can be a suitable alternative to Dental Implants or a Dental Bridge. They are used for replacement of missing teeth without surgery such as implant placement, bone grafting or gum grafting.<br />The term (telescopic denture) refers to the type of prosthesis that includes double crowns as retainers or attachments. These retainers (or attachments) consist of 2 crowns; primary or inner crown which is cemented to the abutment (Fig. 1), and secondary or outer crown which is attached to the denture.<br />What is the use of telescopic crown?<br />Telescopic crown. The telescopic crown consists of an inner crown (also known as a primary or inner telescopic) and an outer crown (also known as a secondary or outer telescopic). It is used to attach removable dentures. The remaining teeth are used for anchoring.<br />What are the indications for telescopic dentures?<br />Telescopic dentures are indicated when a few unevenly distributed teeth are present in the dental arches. Telescopic dentures have better retention and stability due to proprioception, improved stress distribution, and the periodontal ligament's ability to transform compressive forces into tensile forces.<br />What is a telescopic device?<br />A variety of telescopic devices are used for magnification of distant objects including hand-held, head-mounted, and spectacle-mounted telescopes in both Galilean and Keplerian designs.<br />What are the uses of telescopic?<br />Telescopic sights are used with all types of systems that require magnification in addition to reliable visual aiming, as opposed to non-magnifying iron sights, reflector (reflex) sights, holographic sights or laser sights, and are most commonly found on long-barrel firearms, particularly rifles, usually via a scope .<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> Future University is the first university in Iraq.
