Objective:
To explore the clinical effects of treatment denture on difficult edentulous cases before complete denture restoration.
Methods:
Thirty-six patients who experienced unsuccessful restoration of conventional complete dentures were included in this study. Treatment dentures were fabricated to solve issues such as abnormal occlusion, tissue surface problems, and neuromuscular dysfunction of the stomatognathic system caused by systemic diseases. The final complete dentures were fabricated by duplicating the treatment dentures. Jaw relation index, stability, and retention were evaluated at different stages. Oral health-related quality of life was measured using the Chinese version of Oral Health Impact Profile for edentulous subjects (OHIP-EDENT).
Results:
Among the 36 patients, 33 successfully completed the final restoration with positive effects.
Conclusions:
Treatment denture is an effective pre-restorative option that can be used to correct abnormal occlusion, improve tissue surface problems, and aid in neuromuscular rehabilitation training. Treatment dentures contribute to the successful restoration of the final complete dentures and is worthy of clinical applications.
