  • Title: A Technique to Correct Anterior-Posterior Tooth Discrepancy for a Maxillary Immediate Complete Denture.
    Author: Bedrossian EA, Putra A, Chung KH.
    Journal: J Prosthodont; 2019 Jul; 28(6):719-723. PubMed ID: 29164736.
    Abstract:
    This article describes a chairside technique to correct inappropriate occlusal vertical dimension as well as the inaccurate anterior-posterior tooth set-up of a maxillary immediate complete denture. When fabricating an immediate denture, the inability of a wax-denture trial and the potential for unpredictable complications during surgery, compromised esthetics and function of an immediate complete denture may pose a clinical problem, which needs instant correction. The technique described can provide an alternative method to correct and deliver a definitive immediate complete denture on the day of surgery.
