Abstract
Dentures are inevitable part of modern dentistry. India has approximately about 7.7% of partial and completely edentulous population.[1] This population size is estimated to increase rapidly by the year 2030.[2] Factors concern with old age are decreased salivary secretion, compromised quality and quantity, reduced immunological responses and impaired self-defense system may facilitate the process of destruction of oral tissues such as gingiva.
