A legal issue with dental prostheses and their possible complications. Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2020 Jun 24;112: Authors: Caballero Mateos AM, Pullas Latta EB, Vidal-Vílchez B Abstract After observing two cases of dental prostheses impacted in esophagus, fortunately solved by means of endoscopy, we have revised the current legislation in Spain. Knowing the present design of the prostheses and in accordance with the legislation, we consider some modifications must be performed in order to lower the risk of such complications. We want to raise an issue about this topic, often underestimated, and with a significant impact for the patients. PMID: 32579000 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
