METAL REINFORCEMENT OF MANDIBULAR DENTURE OPPOSING NATURAL DENTITION - A CASE REPORT.

Dr Twinkle Arora, Dr Sanjeev Mittal

Abstract :

Complete dentures opposing natural dentition and implant supported mandibular overdenture bases can be a problem, especially because they are prone to fractures. Hence, metal reinforcement for such denture bases can substantially reduce the incidence of fractures in such prosthesis. Also, Several difficult situations are encountered in providing a successful and functional single arch complete prosthetic denture treatment.1 This case report deals with rehabilitation of edentulous mandibular ridge opposing natural dentition in maxillary arch, mandibular denture is prosthetically reinforced with metal within Poly Methyl Methacrylate denture base material to combat the masticatory forces from natural dentition. This will improves the longevity of the prosthetic rehabilitation and at the same time, also improves the strength of the mandibular denture base.2 This article describes the advantages, indications and method of reinforcing mandibular denture opposing natural dentition.
