Abstract

Oral rehabilitation is an intricate process that frequently necessitates a multidisciplinary strategy to treat a patient effectively. Conducting thorough initial consultations, diagnostics, and managing patient expectations while simultaneously grappling with time and cost management is paramount to devising the optimal treatment plan. If the patient requires only prosthodontic work, a
prosthodontist can execute the plan. However, more frequently, a multidisciplinary approach and a step-by-step treatment plan are necessary before the prosthodontist delivers the final prosthodontic work. This procedure can be lengthy and costly, and it is essential to inform the patient of all aspects of the treatment. Effective communication and understanding among different
specialties are crucial to implementing the patient’s treatment plan in the most appropriate manner possible. Any confusion or disagreement can lead to patient dissatisfaction and serious legal and clinical repercussions. This thesis examines various prosthodontic approaches for treating complex oral rehabilitation patients and explores the roles that other healthcare professionals and specialists within dentistry, including orthodontists, periodontists, endodontists, and general dental practitioners, can play in the multidisciplinary treatment process.

Abstract (croatian)

Oralna rehabilitacija složen je proces koji često zahtijeva multidisciplinarni pristup za učinkovito liječenje pacijenta. Provođenje temeljitih početnih konzultacija i dijagnostike i upravljanje očekivanjima pacijenta te istovremeno upravljanje vremenom i troškovima od ključne je važnosti za izradu optimalnog plana liječenja. Ako je pacijentu potreban samo protetski rad, plan može izvršiti protetičar. Međutim, češće su potrebni multidisciplinaran pristup i detaljan plan liječenja prije nego što protetičar isporuči konačan protetski rad. Taj postupak može biti dugotrajan i skup, stoga je bitno obavijestiti pacijenta o svim aspektima liječenja. Učinkovita komunikacija i razumijevanje među različitim specijalnostima ključni su za provedbu plana liječenja pacijenta na najprimjereniji način. Bilo kakve nejasnoće ili neslaganja mogu dovesti do nezadovoljstva pacijenta i ozbiljnih pravnih i kliničkih posljedica. U ovome se radu sagledavaju različiti protetski pristupi u liječenju pacijenata kojima je potrebna kompleksna oralna rehabilitacija i istražuju se uloge koje drugi zdravstveni stručnjaci i specijalisti u području stomatologije, uključujući ortodonte, parodontologe, endodonte i opće stomatologe, mogu imati u ovom multidisciplinarnom procesu liječenja.
