Abstract

Basically, complete denture success relies on the factors like stability, retention, function, support and esthetics. Mostly severely resorbed maxillary ridges are constricted and narrow and the inter-arch distance is increased due to which there is a decreased stability, support and retention. In this case the weight of the complete dentures compromises the factors further. This case report depicts a simplified technique for fabricating the lightweight hollow complete denture for balancing the factors influencing the denture and also preserves the supporting tissues and bone.
