This study on difficult complete denture cases found pain and poor retention were common issues, often due to VDO and occlusal problems. Treatment, including denture remakes, achieved an 80% success rate.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Prosthodontics
  • Dental Materials

Background:

  • Complete dentures are crucial for patients with missing teeth.
  • Difficulties with complete dentures can significantly impact patient quality of life.
  • Identifying causes of complete denture problems is essential for effective treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the challenges faced by patients with difficult complete denture problems.
  • To identify the common causes of complete denture failures.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of various treatment approaches.

Main Methods:

  • A cohort of 114 referred patients with difficult complete denture issues was studied.
  • Patient problems were diagnosed, and treatment was individualized.

  • A diagnostic denture technique was employed for complex cases.

    • Main Results:

    • The most frequent problems reported were pain and lack of retention.
    • Occlusal discrepancies and excessive vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) were primary causes.
    • Overall treatment success rate was 80%, with denture remakes being common.

    Conclusions:

    • Pain and retention issues in complete dentures are often linked to occlusal and VDO problems.
    • Individualized treatment, including denture remakes, can effectively resolve many issues.
    • Further research with larger samples is recommended to establish clearer cause-and-effect relationships.
