Abstrakt:	Disfigurement of the face has a significant impact not only on the appearance and function but also on the psychological well-being of an individual. Due to tooth loss, various psychological problems can occur. Dentures can help patients regain a sense of normalcy and also boost their confidence to live in society.

The purpose of this article is to describe changes in impression techniques, dental material, methodologies in teeth setting, and novel approaches to enhance the esthetics to optimize the results in a final complete denture. To reestablish the patient's masticatory, apparatus steps of complete denture fabrication were revisited accompanied by the modern application of innovative techniques with the base of historical concept.
