Аннотация
OBJECTIVE: To present a case where bilateral mandibular tori complicated prosthetic rehabilitation and to discuss the etiology, clinical features and management of this anatomical variant based on a review of current literature.
CASE REPORT: A 45-year-old female presented with gingival bleeding and lower anterior tooth mobility. Clinical and radiographic examination revealed chronic periodontitis, missing teeth (#35, #36, #37, #46) and bilateral, lobulated mandibular tori. The left torus was surgically removed under local anesthesia using a chisel and mallet to facilitate the fabrication of a removable partial denture. Postoperative healing was uneventful, with complete mucosal healing observed at one month. The prosthesis was subsequently delivered successfully.
CONCLUSIONS: While often asymptomatic, mandibular tori can impede prosthetic treatment. Surgical removal is a predictable procedure when indicated, leading to favorable functional and prosthetic outcomes. This case underscores the importance of interdisciplinary management in oral healthcare.
