Popis: Defects in complete denture impressions resulting from the effect of palatal mucus secretion were discussed. Various methods for minimizing the defects were reviewed. A method requiring the administration of an antisialogogue in conjunction with mouth rinses and gauze packs was presented. The combination procedure minimizes effectively the defects due to mucus secretions by: (1) suppressing ordinary secretion (Pro-Banthine and ice water), and (2) removal of excess mucus secretions from the oral cavity with an astringent mouthwash.
