Post-treatment follow-up guidelines for removable prostheses

On the day the complete removable prosthesis is fitted, the Prosthodontist is responsible for providing his patients with a set of clear, easy-to-understand instructions and recommendations, whatever their intellectual level. These should anticipate as many of the questions they are likely to have as possible, and include oral and prosthetic hygiene techniques to be followed, and the necessary materials to be secured.Post-prosthetic follow-up is essential to the long-term success of the treatment. It is carried out according to a precise schedule, depending on the type of prosthesis and the patient's ability to maintain satisfactory hygiene.
