Novel Technique

Retention, stability and support are the basic principles on which the success of a complete denture relies on. Extreme resorption of the maxillary denture-bearing area leads to a narrower, constricted residual ridge with decreased supporting tissues and a larger restorative space between the maxillary and mandibular residual ridge. Rehabilitation in such cases may result in increased weight and height of the prosthesis further compromising its retention, support and stability. So, to prevent further resorption of ridges, the weight of the prosthesis needs to be reduced which can be achieved by making hollow prosthesis. This case report describes a novel technique of fabricating maxillary hollow maxillary complete denture.

Innovative Technique

Aim: To describe an ingenious technique for the fabrication of light-weight complete denture in severely resorbed ridges. Background: Prosthetic rehabilitation of severely atrophic ridges has always been an ordeal for the clinician. The restorative space between the maxillary and mandibular residual ridges is increased due to severe resorption. The prosthesis overloads the underlying hard and soft tissues exacerbating ridge resorption. Retention, stability, and support are the essential principles on which the success of an entire denture is based. To prevent further resorption of the ridges, the weight of the prosthesis needs to be reduced which can be achieved by making a hollow prosthesis. This case report describes an innovative technique to fabricate a hollow denture-incorporating catheter. Conclusion: The prosthesis developed through the technique was light in weight and eliminated the need for a spacer

Mandibular Complete Denture

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.

Proper Diagnosis

It is difficult to make impression and fabricate conventional dentures for patients with microstomia and flat ridge. This is a case report of 53-year-old female with limited mouth opening (25 mm) who had been wearing denture for 7 years and which was recently broken. Close mouth with suction impression method was used. Proper diagnosis and appropriate set of procedures and methods were needed for this patient. The conventional complete denture fitted with closed mouth method for this condition resulted in retentive and stable denture which was inserted and removed easily.
