TOPICS AND PRESENTER What constitutes a good complete denture The outcome of successful complete denture wearing depends as much on the patient’s ability to adapt as the clinical construction process. The clinician’s ability to provide appliances that fit well, contribute to the external facial profile in their form and then function to the patient’s expectations are the three clinical parameters that lead to successful complete dentures. Where these three parameters fit into the provision of a good denture will be discussed. Good clinical and technical expertise assists patients in their adaptation process. Partial dentures - secrets to success Partial dentures come in many different guises. The simple approach is the best and the rules for achieving this are simple. This lecture will outline some basic principles in providing a successful biologically acceptable appliance that is easily and comfortably worn. Are implants the answer to my denture problems? For some patients control of removable appliances is difficult to master. Maladaptive patients benefit from implants to assist in stabilizing dentures. However implants do not necessarily compensate for poor denture technique or neglected oral hygiene. The distinction between the maladaptive patient and poor denture construction techniques needs to be analysed before deciding on the necessity for implants.
