Area of Science:

Dentistry
Prosthodontics
Biomaterials

Background:

Patient presented with recurrent fractures of a maxillary complete denture.
The opposing arch consisted of natural dentition, complicating occlusion management.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a clinical case of a patient experiencing frequent maxillary complete denture fractures.
To describe a modified functionally generated path technique for successful rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

Utilized a modified functionally generated path technique for denture fabrication.
Employed the patient's existing denture to record the functional path, simplifying the process.
Incorporated occlusal balancing in trial denture bases for precise adjustments.

Main Results:

The modified technique achieved harmonious occlusion between the complete denture and natural dentition.
The patient experienced no further prosthesis fractures during a 2-year follow-up period.
Significant savings in chair-side time and laboratory effort were noted.

Conclusions:

Modification of the functionally generated path technique offers a viable solution for complex denture cases.
This approach enhances patient outcomes by preventing prosthesis failure.
The technique proves efficient, reducing clinical and laboratory workload.
