Innovating the Art of Impression Techniques in Prosthodontic Rehabilitation of Atrophied Mandibular Ridges: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
The prosthetic rehabilitation of an atrophic mandible is usually unsatisfactory due to the lack of support tissues, mainly bone and keratinized mucosa for treatment with conventional prosthesis. The prosthetic instability leads to social and functional limitations and chronic physical trauma decreasing the patient’s quality of life. Severe resorption contributes to the instability and discomfort with the conventional acrylic resin denture. The objective is to develop aim pression technique that provide maximum support of hard tissues and soft tissues. The article in the form of clinical case report describes the process of fabrication of complete denture by using McCord and Tyson and neutral zone to overcome the problem associated with asymmetric atrophic ridge.

متن کاملMishmash Impression Technique for Managing Maxillary Anterior Fibrous Ridge
Introduction: Flabby or fibrous ridge is one of the consequences of long term wearing of complete dentures. It can develop where hyperplasic soft tissue replaces the alveolar bone and is a common finding, particularly in the upper anterior region of long term denture wearers. Forces exerted during impression making can result in distortion of the mobile tissue unless managed appropriately; such...
