ENHANCING MANAGEMENT OF ORAL PATHOLOGIES INDUCED BY DIVERSE DENTAL PROSTHETIC DESIGNS

Dental prostheses—whether fixed, removable, or implant-supported—frequently precipitate complications in the oral cavity, particularly when improperly fitted or maintained. This article synthesizes current evidence on common prosthesis-related pathologies, including inflammatory papillary hyperplasia, epulis fissuratum, and peri-implant mucositis, and proposes a structured, evidence-based treatment paradigm. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary strategies involving precision prosthesis fabrication, optimized hygiene, biomaterial selection, and patient education to improve outcomes and prevent recurrence.
