<abstract language="eng">Fenestrations and dehiscence's are variations of the natural teeth and the alveolar bone that are significant not only to anatomy and periodontology but also to a prosthodontist who should be able to characterize such natural and normal features within his dental prosthesis. Although their etiology has been attributed to heavy occlusal forces, this article presents a case where opposing occlusion did not exist and patient's history revealed that the dehiscence was aggravated after removal of opposing teeth thus suggesting a strong relation between degree of dehiscence and lack of occlusal forces.</abstract>
