Title: Surgical and prosthetic management of a complex edentulous patient for fabrication of complete dentures. Author: Comut AA, Somohano T. Journal: N Y State Dent J; 2015 Mar; 81(2):29-33. PubMed ID: 25928971. Abstract: Fabrication of well-fitting complete dentures becomes a challenge in the presence of epulis fissuratum in the maxilla or severely resorbed alveolar tissue in the mandible. This clinical report describes the surgical and prosthetic treatment of a patient who presented with both problems. The neutral zone technique was used to improve the stability of the mandibular complete denture. Both dentures were fabricated prior to surgical excision of the epulis fissuratum and inserted immediately following the surgery.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
