Abstrakt: The ill-fitting and unstable complete denture prosthesis is the most commonly faced problem by patients with compromised resorbed ridge. The retention, support, and stability of dentures are compromised in severely resorbed ridges, leading to difficulty in mastication and swallowing. The flabby tissue can be managed by using appropriate mucostatic impression techniques, and severely resorbed ridges can be managed by the coordination of a complete denture prosthesis with the neuromuscular function using a neutral zone for the arrangement of artificial teeth. This case report presents a combination of the Hobkirk technique and the neutral zone concept for the rehabilitation of the flabby tissue and severely resorbed alveolar ridge.
