چکیده
Prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with poorly resorbed ridges in a conventional manner is a difficult task. Modifications in the treatment procedures should be considered to fulfill the patient's functional and esthetic desires. The key to successful denture therapy lies in precise execution of the treatment plan formulated by evaluation of a detailed comprehensive history and thorough examination. Such a treatment is based on M Muller Devan's principles of preservation of what already exists than the mere replacement of what is missing [1]. This article provides detailed treatment planning for poorly resorbed edentulous ridges.

Management of flabby ridges using liquid supported denture: a case report
Flabby ridges commonly occur in edentulous patients. Inadequate retention and stability of a complete denture are the often encountered problems in these patients. A liquid supported denture due to its flexible tissue surface allows better distribution of stress and hence provides an alternate treatment modality in such cases. This case report presents the use of a liquid supported denture in a...
متن کاملDisplaceable Tissue: a Clinical Challenge for a Prosthodontist
A fibrous or flabby ridge is a superficial area of mobile soft tissue affecting the maxillary or mandibular alveolar ridges. Restoration of such ridges often requires special consideration in impression making. Masticatory forces can displace this mobile denture-bearing tissue, leading to altered denture positioning and loss of peripheral seal. Forces exerted during the act of impression making...

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...

Retention, stability and support are the basic principles on which the success of a complete denture relies on. The skill lies in applying these principles efficiently in critical situations. Residual ridge resorption occurs at a three times faster rate in mandibular arch than in the maxillary arch. The severely resorbed maxillary and mandibular edentulous arches that are narrow and constricted...
