All prostheses carry biological, functional, temporal, psychological, and maintenance\u2010related costs, and no prosthesis is permanent. These burdens should be explicitly identified, minimized, and justified by meaningful benefit. Building on rational dental care, geriatric dental assessment, the Seattle Care Pathway, minimal intervention dentistry, and patient\u2010priorities\u2010aligned care, comprehensive risk assessment should precede rehabilitation and establish a feasible maintenance plan. Proportional care serves as the ethical principle, prosthodontic sufficiency as the clinical objective, and contingency planning as a practical requirement if later frailty, cognitive decline, or loss of support makes treatment unmaintainable. Homebound patients require explicit arrangements for access and follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
