TREATMENT COMPLETE DENTURES – AN ALTERNATIVE FOR ALTERED VERTICAL DIMENSION

Vijaykrishna1, Manikandan Kumaraswamy1, .

Abstract


Prolonged edentulous periods can complicate prosthodontic treatment. Among other changes loss of vertical dimension occurs.This can be easily managed in dentulous patients by opening the bite.In edentulous patient this paper gives a case report about the use of treatment complete dentures.The concept of modifying the existing denture .This can be used as an interim denture so that the increased vertical dimension can be adjusted.
