The effect of resilient layer and occlusal reactive complete dentures on the residual alveolar ridge

Electromyographic Evaluation of the Effect of Lined Dentures on Masticatory Muscle Activity in Edentulous Subjects

“…Woelfel et al, reported bone loss caused by an improperly used denture liner [33]. Another study reported that the rate of ridge resorption with a resilient liner was significantly less than that of conventional dentures [34]. Unfortunately, the follow up period for this study was limited.…”

Soft denture liners’ effect on the masticatory function in patients wearing complete dentures: A systematic review

“…Soft denture lining materials provide relief from such problems by assisting in the function of well-structured complete dentures. These materials ensure an even distribution of the functional loads on the denture bearing area, restore the inflamed mucosa and improve patient's comfort [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] . Their cushioning effect has been reported to contribute substantially to denture wearers' satisfaction and their Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) [20][21] .…”

Influence of lining design of three processed soft denture liners on cushioning effect

“…Soft denture liners are used for reducing the impact force and loading of edentulous ridges, and for improving load distribution on the denture bearing area. This is reflected in clinical surveys (ElCharkawi & ElMahdy, 1988; Wright, 1994). Currently, plasticized vinyl rubber, methyl ethyl methacrylate resin or silicone rubber, fluoropolymer resin, polyorephin rubber and polyphosphazine rubber are being used as long term soft denture liners (Craig, 1985; Hirasawa & Hirabayashi, 1990).…”
