Liquid-Supported Denture & Neutral Zone for Atrophic Residual Ridges : A Case Report
Journal Title: People's Journal of Scientific Research. - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Liquid supported denture can be a permanent solution in edentulous patients with diabetes, xerostomia and atrophied ridge. A liquid-supported denture was planned for maxillary arch and neutral zone concept for fabrication of contour of the polished surfaces of mandibular denture. Liquid-supported dentures will have optimal stress distribution during masticatory function. The neutral zone technique provides muscular harmony over the denture stability. Liquid supported denture will act as a continuous reliner for the denture and thus has an advantage over the conventional denture. Neutral zone technique is an alternative approach for the construction of mandibular dentures where there is atrophic ridge and a history of denture instability.
