This article outlines a number of simple clinical steps which should enable general dental practitioners to diagnose and treat the majority of complete denture problems in patients with atrophic mandibular ridges. The guiding principle is the reduction of forces transmitted to the denture-bearing area via the lower denture. Methods of optimising the size of the denture bases and/or the occlusal tables are discussed and illustrated.
