Clinical Images

Maxillary arch is edentulous. The residual ridge in the maxillary arch is resorbed. The maxillary tuberosities are very small. The incisive papilla is near the crest of the ridge. The residual ridge is unevenly resorbed.

Mandibular arch is edentulous. The residual ridge in the mandibular arch is resorbed. The floor of the mouth is closer to the crest of the ridge. The facial and lingual sulci are shallow. The residual ridge is highly resorbed.

Impression surface of maxillary complete denture is lined with heat-processed ethylene sheet. The peripheral denture border and posterior palatal seal area of the denture is heat cured acrylic resin. There is uniform intervening space between the acrylic denture base and the ethylene sheet.

Impression surface of mandibular complete denture is lined with heat-processed ethylene sheet. The peripheral denture border and retromolar pad area of the denture is heat cured acrylic resin. There is uniform intervening space between the acrylic denture base and the ethylene sheet.

Heat cured acrylic resin complete denture with anatomic teeth in maximum intercuspation position inside oral cavity.
