Objective:Theaims to explain the window impression technique for a single denture with flabby tissue area in maxillary anterior ridge in the form of case report.Methods:The clinical examination showed the maxillary complete edentulousridgewithflabbyridgeareainthemaxillaryanteriorregion opposing the anterior natural teeth in the mandibular.Results: There were various impression techniques used in the management of flabby tissue in the maxillary anterior ridge for a single denture cases.Conclusion: The window impression technique is one of the proper techniques used in the management of flabby tissue for the single denture impression.Keyword: Anterior ridge, Flabby ridge, Single denture
The loss of teeth is a problem that often causes mastication, phonetic, and esthetic interferences. The use of removable partial denture (RPD) with clasp is often unsatisfactory for patients from functional and aesthetic aspects. Retention and stabilization must be considered in making RPD. In the case of free-end dentures, which fixed dentures (FD) is contraindicated, another option is a hybrid prosthesis that combines a RPD with FD using precision attachment. Clasp used as denture retention can be replaced with precision attachment to produce better retention.
Background: The resorption of the mandibular alveolar bone is a common problem in the edentulous jaw, causing the alveolar ridge to become flat. This can lead to poor complete denture function and an unbalanced occlusion. Therefore, treatment is needed to obtain adequate retention and stability in edentulous mandible. Today, mini implant overdenture using magnetic retention is often used as a treatment for edentulous mandible. Objective: To review the literature on mini implant overden-ture using magnetic retention in prosthodontic cases. Discussion: Implant overdenture is a complete or partial denture covering the implant used as a support. Stability and retention of dentures in the long term can be achieved by using a small diameter implant called mini dental implant that is mounted directly on the alveolar ridge using magnets. Conclusion: Mini implant overdenture can be used in cases of edentulous mandible to obtain good retention and stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
