The purpose of this article was to review and summarize the literature on the retention of submerged roots. It appears that the submerged-root procedures may have an accepted place alongside conventional overdenture techniques in the profession's continuing effort to retard alveolar bone resorption in the field of prosthodontics.
The fabrication and use of an instrument which can accurately mark oral tissues and allows transfer of that mark to an artificial stone cast has been discussed. This procedure is especially useful to mark the anterior floor of the mouth in its superior most position. When transferred to the diagnostic cast, the mark is a considerable aid in designing the inferior border of the major connector for a mandibular removable partial denture framework.

This article describes a technique used for fabricating temporary (interim) complete dentures for a patient who had been wearing removable partial dentures and whose remaining teeth were to be extracted. Rather than attempt to incorporate the existing removable partial dentures into the interim complete dentures, the dentist used the existing dentures to fabricate acrylic resin teeth for the interim prosthesis.
A method has been presented for alteration of a conventional lever-type amalgam carrier for use in placement of amalgam in difficult-to-reach distobuccal and distolingual preparations. The few minutes required to alter one of these instruments will be more than repaid in time saved while attempting to place amalgam with a conventional carrier or cotton pliers. It is hoped that in the future one of the manufacturers of the conventional-type carriers will add this altered instrument to their product line.
