Liquid-Supported Denture- A Boon To Flabby Ridges

Radhika Shrivastava, Suryakant C Deogade, Sneha S Mantri and Sumathi K

Extreme resorption of edentulous maxilla and mandible often poses a challenge to a prosthodontist while fabrication of successful complete dentures in such clinical cases. Optimum retention and stability of dentures is more problematic to achieve in severely resorbed ridges. The factors, such as the position and quantitative changes in the morphology of denture bearing areas of maxilla and mandible decide the future design of the prosthesis. The concept of liquid supported prosthesis helps in distribution of stresses uniformly and evenly and provides an alternative treatment approach in flabby ridges. This article presents a case report which describes the fabrication of liquid supported complete denture to aid in the management of these compromised conditions.
