Removable Partial-Denture Construction in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

Prosthetic rehabilitation with denture treatment is aimed at stomatognathic system restoration. Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients who require Removable Partial Denture (RPD) therapy are found in many dental and oral health centers. DM patients with complex oral manifestations need to receive serious attention by the dentist. Initially, the patient's examination should begin by knowing the history of the disease, so that it can help determine the appropriate measures for the patient and the diagnosis of the disorders that occur in the oral cavity. The main issue is the decline in quality and quantity of periodontal tissue. Therefore, determining the denture design should consider the kind of denture support as well as the appropriate denture base materials. The successful treatment is largely determined by the mastery of theory, laboratory and clinical skills, as well as good cooperation between the dentist and their patient.
