Bar Attachement Retained Mandibular Complete Denture: A Case Report

The mandibular complete denture is a challenge for the dentist. Unfavorable anatomical and physiological conditions such low bearing surface and a significant bone resorption, often compromise the prosthetic retention.The exploitation of root stumps is a reliable alternative that leads to a better prosthetic integration by increasing the retention, if the total prosthesis is connected to these root stumps via axial ball or bar attachments.In addition, this prosthetic alternative considerably improves the patient's comfort and masticatory coefficient and favors the preservation of the bone capital, provided that the requirements of root preservation as well as clinical and laboratory techniques are respected.We would like to illustrate this by presenting a clinical case in which we used the connecting bar in the mandibular arch.

Immediate complete denture prosthesis fabricated before the removal of the teeth and placed immediately after the extractions of natural teeth. An advantage of an immediate complete denture over a conventional complete denture is the preservation of the natural appearance of a person. This clinical case report describes step by step fabrication of the immediate complete denture.

AbstractSeveral difficulties are encountered in providing a successful, single complete denture treatment. This case report deals with successful rehabilitation of completely resorbed mandibular ridge opposing a full complement of natural teeth prosthetically incorporating metal denture base in place of the conventional Poly Methyl Methacrylate material to combat the masticatory forces from natural dentition and improve the longevity of the prosthetic rehabilitation, at the same time improving the strength of the mandibular denture base.

Mandibular Complete Denture

Residual ridge resorption is the reduction in size of the bony ridge under the mucoperiosteum. Obtaining retention and stability in a severely resorbed ridges using a conventional technique is a tedious task. The resorption occurs at a faster rate in mandibular arch as compared to the maxillary arch. In order to have a favorable prognosis for the denture therapy, impression technique selected should be based on the present state of the basal tissue support for mandible. In this article neutral zone concept was incorporated in to impression making in an effort to achieve successful mandibular complete denture. The anterior region of maxilla is the most affected area in edentulous patients. Complete denture wearers with flabby ridges may face a number of difficulties, of which major complaints would be pain, compromised stability, support, and retention and an ill-fitting denture. Special impressions often involve window technique for static impression of flabby area, which present multiple challenges. This article presents a case report of modified widow impression technique for maxillary anterior flabby tissues along with a hollow maxillary complete denture in a patient with resorbed maxillary and mandibular ridges with increased interridge distance to reduce the weight of the prosthesis and thereby enhances the retention.
