“…The main advantage of replicated dentures could be considered the more comfortable adaptation of elderly patients to their new prostheses 22 . The inherent difficulties of randomization in a study design between traditional and duplication construction protocols led to only nonrandomized clinical studies [23][24][25] been published to the literature up to date.…”

“…Duplication of existing complete dentures, as part of a replacement denture construction protocol, has been an alternative denture fabrication technique. Three prospective clinical studies [23][24][25] compared CDs constructed with a duplication protocol to CDs with a traditional construction protocol. No significant differences could be detected in all studies regarding patients' preference, a fact that could be attributed to the strict adherence to each construction protocol since all of the studies were set at an academic environment.…”

“…Three prospective clinical studies [23][24][25] were identified, that compared CDs fabricated with a traditional and a duplication construction protocol. Kamalakidis et al 25 utilized both subjective evaluations (OHIP-20, satisfaction questionnaire) and objective evaluations (number of adjustment visits, total number of sore spots), to compare…”

SummaryBackground/Aim: The successful outcome of conventional complete denture treatment can be defined with the use of both subjective and objective criteria. Denture satisfaction determinants may include denture quality, oral tissue condition, patient-dentist relationship, patient’s attitude toward dentures, patient’s personality and socioeconomic factors. Purpose: The aim of the current review was to identify and analyze the different construction protocols and occlusal schemes that contribute to the success of complete denture rehabilitation through the use of evaluation questionnaires.Material and Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed through electronic databases (MEDLINE via PubMed) using the appropriate key words (complete denture construction, complete denture fabrication, complete denture occlusion and complete denture occlusal scheme). The related to the subject scientific papers were selected and evaluated for eligibility utilizing a predefined review process (English, full text articles, published from January 2000 up to April 2017).Results: None of the analyzed studies identified significant differences between dentures constructed with simplified, CAD/CAM and traditional protocols in terms of general satisfaction and Oral Health Related Quality of Life scales. The same condition applied to the studies which compared complete dentures with bilateral balanced, lingualized, monoplane and canine guided occlusion.Conclusions: Current scientific evidence suggested that patients could adapt comfortably to any type of bilateral balanced occlusal scheme and to complete dentures been fabricated with all types of complete denture construction protocol. Disease-specific questionnaires could be considered valuable tools and should be used to assess the outcome of any treatment modality.

“…Another important aspect at the elderly rehabilitation is the adaptation to the new complete prosthesis (Kamalakidis et al, 2016). In this population, the neuroplasticity necessary to learn new motor abilities or to adapt to the existent arrangements can be compromised (Luraschi et al, 2013).…”

Introduction: The time required for the complete dentures confection may be a limiting factor in the treatment of geriatric patients since these patients have age-related systemic conditions and morbidities that limit their mobility. Also, the elderly ability to adapt to a new prosthesis with very different characteristics from the existing ones can be difficult. Methodology: This present study aims to describe a simplified technique to fabricate the complete dentures in two visits by duplicating the patient existent prosthesis, with the teeth area confectioned in wax and the other parts made of acrylic resin. The technique consists of using the replica of the patient's existent prosthesis to record the maxillomandibular relations and as a vehicle for obtaining the functional cast. Results: This technique showed the improvement of the esthetic factors, an increase of the occlusal vertical dimension, and lip support when compared to the patient’s previous prosthesis. Conclusion: This technique allows the reduction of clinical steps and provides the patients with an easier adaptation of the new prosthesis.
