Neutral Zone Approach: Rehabilation of Severly Resorbed Mandibular Ridge - A Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
Retention and stability of complete denture becomes more dependent on factors like appropriate position of teeth and the contours of the polished surface of the dentures. Improper tooth placement may lead to an adverse effect on the success of the prosthesis. Therefore, these surfaces should be well contoured such that horizontally directed forces applied by peri-oral musculature acts to seat the denture in the well balanced muscular zone. Neutral zone technique is an alternative technique for the rehabilitation of severely resorbed mandibular ridges as it improves the stability of mandibular denture.
