This preliminary clinical study aimed to identify the impact of two border-molding techniques (dentist-manipulated and patient-manipulated) on patient satisfaction, the occlusal force at denture dislodgment, and number of pressure sores. Salivary flow rate and residual ridge resorption were analyzed as covariates. Thirty-six edentulous patients in need of a relining of their existing maxillary denture were included. After relining, no significant influence of the border-molding technique on any of the variables investigated could be identified. It can be concluded that the impact of the border-molding technique on patient satisfaction and denture function probably has been overestimated in the past.
本初步临床研究旨在确定两种边缘成型技术（牙医操作和患者操作）对患者满意度、义齿脱位时的咬合力量以及压疮数量的影响。唾液流量和剩余牙槽嵴吸收被分析为协变量。纳入 36 名需要重新衬垫上颌义齿的无牙患者。重新衬垫后，未发现边缘成型技术对任何研究变量有显著影响。可以得出结论，过去可能高估了边缘成型技术对患者满意度和义齿功能的影响。
