  • Difficulty in a Complete Lower Denture adaptation – a case report
    2015
    Co-Authors: Agnieszka Nowakowska, Tomasz Dąbrowa
    Abstract:

    A case of prosthetic treatment was presented of the female patient with full upper arch fixed restorations form 16 to 26 opposing edentulous mandible. The patient experienced long-term adaptation difficulties of the Complete Lower Denture and was not able to adjust to incorrectly designed previous Dentures due to lack of their stabilization on the prosthetic field and consequent speech difficulties. The treatment consisted of the initial correction of the currently used Lower Denture followed by manufacturing of a new prosthesis according to Wroclaw method of edentulous patient rehabilitation. Thorough examination and appropriate treatment method selection led to a positive therapeutic outcome.

  • A hollow Complete Denture for severely resorbed mandibular ridges
    The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2006
    Co-Authors: Am Bhat
    Abstract:

    This article presents a case report of a severely resorbed mandibular ridge situation treated with a hollow Complete Lower Denture, states the rationale behind the treatment and highlights on a technique for the fabrication of a hollow Complete Lower Denture with the objective of emphasizing the use of a hollow Complete Denture in situations where there is excessive resorption of the residual alveolar ridges and implant treatment is not a realistic option.

  • Correlation between the weight and usefulness of Complete Lower Denture
    Fogorvosi szemle, 2002
    Co-Authors: Marianna Jáhn, Gerle J, Borbála Kaán, Pál Sajgó, Kaán M, Pál Fejérdy
    Abstract:

    The importance of gravity has been known for a long time in prosthetic dentistry. However, few researchers have focused on the measurement of the weight of Complete Lower Dentures or on the possibility of increasing that weight and its effect on stability. Some authors recommend hidden weight increase using a horseshoe-shaped alloy covered by the artificial gum in order to increase the weight of Complete Lower Dentures; others recommend the use of metal molars, heavy acrylic artificial gum, and a baseplate partially or fully made of metal for the same purpose. The authors of the present article have measured 167 Complete Lower Dentures using an assay balance. They compared three sets of Complete Lower Dentures of 24 patients, one of the three being of increased weight in each case. The examination by x2 statistics (four-domain contingency test) of the relationship between the weight and usefulness of Complete Lower Dentures showed that an overwhelming majority of patients preferred the weight-increased Dentures.

  • Investigation of the relationship between the posterior edge of the base of Complete Lower Dentures and the mandibular tuberculum
    Fogorvosi szemle, 2001
    Co-Authors: Kaán M, F Lindeisz, Pál Fejérdy
    Abstract:

    Surveying the data published in the literature one can establish that opinions of authors differ concerning the appropriate relationship between Complete Lower Dentures and the tuberculum alveolare mandibulae (TAM). Some authors claim that, following extensional principles, the base of Complete Lower Dentures must fully cover the TAM. Others think that it is enough if the base covers half of the TAM; yet others recommend that the base should merely extend as far as the mesial edge of the TAM. In the present investigations, we tried to find out what the relationship was between Complete Lower Dentures prepared in everyday practice and the TAM. Dentists of the Clinic of Prosthetic Dentistry examined 8346 patients in eight different regions of Hungary over a period of three years. In the present analysis, we discuss the data of subjects wearing a Complete Lower Denture. In the populations concerned, 669 subjects met these criteria. With respect to the relationship between the base and the TAM, we distinguished three groups. The first group was made up by cases where the base extended as far as the mesial edge of the TAM, the second group included subjects whose base reached the medial line of the TAM, whereas the third group comprised patients in whose case the base fully covered the TAM. The relationship between the base and the TAM was examined intraorally, by ocular inspection. The data were analysed with regard to gender and laterality, by the help of the SPSS software package and the chi 2 test. The investigations showed that, in everyday practice, an overwhelming majority (77.10%) of Complete Lower Dentures had a base extending to the mesial edge of the TAM, and it was in a mere 3.9% of cases that the base covered (some of) the TAM. Cases where the edge of the base did not reach the TAM (19.01%) were taken as cases where the dentist disregarded the significance of the relationship between the base and the TAM. The tuberculum alveolare mandibulae is a structure made up by dense fibrous connective tissue that, in most cases, may get displaced over its base and is not pressure resistant, not able to provide a value-like seal and, therefore, not suitables for the extension of the base. Our results suggest that practising dentists have noticed this; furthermore, they have probably also noticed that whenever the base extends as far as the mesial edge of the TAM, leaning against it as it were, it effectively prevents the Denture from shifting backwards, i.e. is an obstacle to its anteroposterior displacement.

  • PROSTHETIC TREATMENT OF PATIENT WITH TOTAL HARD PALATE RESECTION
    Peytchinski Publishing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Ivan Gerdzhikov
    Abstract:

    Introduction: Operative treatment of tumours of the maxilla impairs the barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, making difficult or impossible to eat, speak, and drink liquids. Aim: The purpose of the clinical case described, is to examine the possibility of prosthetic treatment in patients with fully resected hard palate, the treatment effect and recovery of impaired functions. Materials and methods: The article presents the prosthetic treatment of a patient with resection of the entire hard palate as a result of an oncological disease. Due to Complete edentulism, the treatment plan included the construction of an obturator and a Complete Lower Denture. Functional impressions with additive silicone were taken with custom trays of the light-cured acrylic resin after pre-edging with wax impression material (ISO Functional GS). The Dentures were made of a colourless heat cured the acrylic resin. The volume and localization of the defect necessitated a specific shaping of the replacement part of the obturator. In order to provide the necessary retention and stability, we used our own modification of the open cup-shaped form in which the edges of the replacement part were extended distally in the area of the soft palate. Results: The results of the treatment showed good retention and stability of the obturator and the Lower Denture. The feeding, speech and swallowing of the patient were successfully restored. Conclusion: Prosthetic treatment with a definitive obturator allows optimal sealing of the maxillary defect even with a fully removed hard palate
