Popis: Flabby ridges as well as resorbed residual ridges compromise the support, retention and stability of complete denture. Masticatory forces can displace this mobile denture-bearing tissue, leading to altered denture positioning and loss of peripheral seal whereas stability of lower denture in resorbed cases is usually the distinguishing factor between success and failure. When proper technique is not applied to record these compromised ridges patient often complains of discomfort and loose dentures in such a situation. Conventional prosthodontics require specialized impression techniques for management of these ridges. The present case report illustrates two-part impression techniques for management of flabby ridges for maxillary and cocktail impression technique for resorbed mandibular arches.
