A one-appointment impression and centric relation record technique for compromised complete denture patients

A Randomized Trial on Simplified and Conventional Methods for Complete Denture Fabrication: Cost Analysis

“…Some approaches attempt to simplify or eliminate certain clinical and laboratory procedures in denture fabrication. Examples of simplified methods include fabrication of master casts and trial record bases directly from a single irreversible hydrocolloid impression in a stock tray, mounting casts on articulators without facebow transfers, direct pouring of definitive casts in articulators, definitive impression and maxillomandibular relationship records in one appointment, alternative materials for definitive impressions, different occlusal schemes such as lingualized occlusion, and duplication of existing dentures . Most studies on such methods are clinical reports or retrospective studies, and the lack of randomized trials is a concern.…”

“…13 These include apathy, depression, and forgetfulness, all of which lead to negligence in daily oral health care. [14][15] Dentists face many problems in fabrication of denture in such patients because increased tremors, increased saliva, diminished adaptive skills and poor muscle control make impression making and jaw relation recording difficult, causing compromised retention. [16][17] The technique described here is relatively simple and a drastic departure from the conventional procedure.…”

“…8,16,63,64,67,68 Shorter, less expensive but still acceptable treatment methods would benefit especially elderly patients with chronic pathology and less mobility. 1,17,69,70,71 Simplified denture fabrication techniques make treatment more attractive for both practitioners and patients. Most simplified techniques will condense impression making in one appointment, which often includes jaw records also (without face bow registration), and sometimes anterior teeth selection/mock-up of anterior set-up.…”
