Abstract
The concept of Preventive Prosthodontics utilising conventional tooth-retained overdentures is a simple and cost effective treatment compared to implant overdentures. The concept of tooth supported overdentures is getting less popular because of advent of implant supported overdentures/hybrid dentures, but it is still utilised and provides a satisfactory means of rehabilitation and helps in delaying the process of residual ridge resorption and thus, helps in the preservation of bone, especially in patients who cant afford and/or cant undergo implant surgery because of health issues. A number of attachment systems are available for
tooth supported overdenture treatment modality. The objective of all the systems is to provide retention and support for the overdenture, but the bar retained systems are expensive. This case report describes a simple and economic way of fabrication of a customised Hader bar using a simple coffee stirrer for tooth supported overdenture.
Keywords: Customized Hader Bar, Tooth supported overdenture, Cast copings, Bar supported overdenture.
