An 80-year-old man sought treatment at our hospital. He was dissatisfied with his old complete denture due to its poor stability and retention. The old complete denture had been used for about 20 years. The prolonged use of an unsuitable complete denture led the patient to be accustomed to unilateral mastication (UM). Due to the patient long-term habitual mandibular deviation, using the physiological technique to get the centric relation (CR) achieved an incorrect horizontal maxillomandibular record. This clinical report presents a technique using the existing complete denture mounted with a Gothic arch tracer to determine the CR. This technique is an inexpensive, simple, and reliable method that allows fabricating the final impression and obtaining the maxillomandibular relationship record (MMRR) in one step.

The study compares subjective experiences of patients, wearing complete dentures. Two different methods of determining a centric relation were performed: the traditional method using wax occlusal rims and the Gerber method, based on gothic arch tracings. The success rate of establishing a centric relation in both methods was evaluated (rentgenodiagnostics). The influence of the method used to obtain the centric relation on patients’ stomatognathic system (condyle centralization, pain) was also evaluated. Better results were achieved in gothic arch tracing method. Before every prosthetic treatment of edentulous patients, a functional analysis of the TMJ is necessary. The lack of centric relation, in a long term adaptation patients, does not lead to TMD symptoms. This trial is registered with NCT03343015.

ABSTRACT An abnormally small oral orifice is referred to as microstomia, although the intraoral structures may be of normal size. Making impression in microstomia patients is often cumbersome. Prosthetic rehabilitation of microstomia patients present difficulties at all stages, right from preliminary impressions to insertion of prostheses. To rehabilitate a patient with microstomia successfully, the methods and designs incorporated in the fabrication of prosthesis have to be modified to achieve favorable esthetics, mastication and retention. This clinical report describes the method of fabrication of sectional denture for completely edentulous patient with microstomia resulting from scleroderma with modified primary impression procedure without using tray and also method of fabricating a sectional complete denture. Fabricating the denture in two pieces enable the patient to insert and remove the denture with ease. How to cite this article Basavanna JM, Raikhy A.

Complete edentulism for longer period of time and aging causes flaccid of facial musculature which leads to sunken cheeks and unpleasing appearance of face. In order to get a supplemental support for the drooping cheek muscles, fabrication of conventional complete denture with adjunct detachable cheek plumpers are simple, acceptable non-invasive and economical. Despite the discussion of various attachment used for cheek plumper in literature each have their own disadvantages. The present clinical report demonstrated the use of chairside available lingual sheath and stainless steel wire for the attachment of cheek plumpers to the maxillary complete denture.

ABSTRACT Aim This clinical report describes a time-saving recording procedure for implant prosthesis. Background In implant prosthodontics, a few procedures have been suggested to record jaw relationships. Record bases with occlusion rims supported by healing abutments, or screw retained bases are the conventional methods used for mounting definitive implant casts in the articulator. Technique This article describes a simple method that enables the clinician to transfer the existing occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) and centric relation (CR) of acceptable complete denture to final fixed prostheses. Advantages and disadvantages of this procedure are also discussed. Conclusion The method described in this article reduces the chair time and is comfortable for both the patient and clinician. Clinical significance In this article, a chair side technique is presented for articulating the definitive implant casts that maintains the established OVD and CR of the patient's existing complete dentures.

When in partially edentulous patient hyperplastic tissue replaces the alveolar bone, a flabby ridge develops which is often seen in long-term denture wearers. Flabby ridge provide poor retention for the denture fabrication if not recoded properly. A careful consideration and application of Zafrulla and Hobkrik technique of complete denture construction helps practitioner to over cone such conditions easily. This article describes procedure performed for flabby ridge patient and demonstrates Zafrulla and Hobkrik combination impression technique.
