The success of a complete denture relies on the principles of retention, stability and support. The prosthodontist skill lies in applying these principles efficiently in critical situations. Severely resorbed maxillary edentulous ridges that are narrow and constricted with increased inter ridge space provide decreased support, retention and stability. The consequent weight of the processed denture only compromises them further. This article describes a case report of an edentulous patient with resorbed ridges where a simplified technique of fabricating a hollow maxillary complete denture using lost salt technique was used for preservation of denture bearing areas. The hollowing of the denture reduces the weight of the denture, thereby enhancing stability and retention, reducing the further resorption of the jaws.
全口义齿的成功依赖于固位、稳定和支持的原则。口腔修复医生的技能在于在关键情况下有效地应用这些原则。严重吸收的上颌无牙颌牙槽嵴狭窄且收缩,牙槽嵴间距离增加,会导致支持、固位和稳定性降低。义齿加工后的重量会进一步损害这些方面。本文描述了一例牙槽嵴吸收的无牙患者的病例报告,该病例采用失盐技术制作中空上颌全口义齿的简化技术来保留义齿承托区。义齿中空减轻了义齿重量,从而增强了稳定性和固位,减少了颌骨的进一步吸收。
