Magnet Retained Maxillary Complete Denture with Cheek Plumber to Improve Facial Esthetics: A Case Report.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Complete Denture is an artificial appliance which restores natural functions and esthetics caused by loss of natural teeth. The success of prosthetic treatment not only is predicted by dentist ability but also on the ability to relate to patients and to understand their needs1. There are many esthetic consequences of edentulism, among which facial disfigurement due to sunken appearance of cheeks and lips has a greater negative psychological impact on the individual1. Use of dentures to some extent can restore the loss but sometimes additional support is required. This case shows a way to improve facial esthetics by adding magnetic retained cheek plumber in maxillary complete denture.
