ABSTRACT… Objectives: Retention of maxillary denture is obtained by many factors including physical and physiological factors. Effective seal is obtained easily at buccal and labial borders of maxillarsy. However, it is difficult to obtain peripheral seal at posterior border of upper denture as there is no soft tissue draping. Fovea palatinae which has been considered as reliable anatomical guide in unmutilated mouth. Fovea palatinae are close to vibrating line and are in soft tissue making them useful as reference points for posterior limit of the denture. Our aim to identify the relative position of vibrating line with reference to the fovea palatinae for determining posterior border of the upper complete denture. Setting: Department of Prosthodontics, Lahore Medical and Dental College, Lahore. Method: 160 subjects were included in this study. The patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria, Fovea palatinae was located and marked with the indelible pencil in the soft palate. Subjects were instructed to rehearse the "ah" sound in normal, unexaggerated way. Location of the vibrating line was marked with same indelible pencil. The position of the vibrating line whether in front, at or behind the fovea palatinae was noted.Results: Our study results shows in 72(45%) subjects vibrating line lies in front, 81(50.6%) subjects it lies at and 7(4.4%) subjects lies behind the fovea palatinae. Conclusion: Seal must be situated just anterior to the vibrating line and distal to hard palate at compressible tissue of soft palate.

“…Some studies showed that the fovea palatinae are reliable to locate vibrating line for posterior limit of removeable complete denture, while other are considered it unreliable. [32][33][34] 16,36 Many studies showed that the fovea palatinae can be reliable anatomical structure which helps in locating the vibrating line and posterior palatal seal for posterior limitation of upper removable complete dentures. 37 Some studies showed that patients whom adequate palatal outline at hard & soft palate junction, broader will be the posterior palatal seal part.…”

Introduction: Currently many new treatment choices are present but removable complete denture is still treatment of choice. Retention, stability and support are the essential qualities of removable complete dentures and for these to achieve, borders of the prosthesis should be harmonized contact with surrounding tissues to produces a seal and that seal is known as peripheral seal.Objective: To determine the most posterior limit of the maxillary complete den-ture through position of vibrating line in relation with the fovea palatinae in com-plete denture patients visiting at Prosthodontics department of Isra dental college, Hyderabad.Methodology: During this cross-sectional study from June 2018 to March 2019, 155 edentulous patients of either gender, having age ranges from 40-60 years and above were included. Indelible pencil was used for marking of vibrating line location and results of vibrating line location whether it is anterior, at or posterior to fovea palatinae were recorded in written proforma when patient pronounce the word “Ah” in normal unexaggerated manner.Results: Among 155 edentulous patients, we found vibrating line anterior to fovea palatinae in almost 53% cases followed next in frequency it was found at the fovea palatinae in 46.5% cases.Conclusion: Fovea palatinae is best anatomical structures to help in location of vibrating line and posterior palatal seal and vibrating line in most cases is located anterior to the fovea palatinaeKeywords: Fovea palatinae, maxillary denture, posterior palatal seal area, reten-tion and vibrating line.
