An Old Wine In A New Bottle- Liquid Supported Denture For Atrophic Residual Ridge.

ABSTRACT

Liquid supported denture can be a permanent solution in edentulous patients with atrophied ridge. A complete denture is designed so that the base is covered with a pre-shaped, close fitting flexible foil containing a thin film of high viscosity liquid. Liquid-supported dentures will have optimal stress distribution during masticatory function. It will act as a continuous reliner for the denture and thus has an advantage over the conventional denture.
