Abstract

<p>Patient: The patient was an 81-year-old female who exhibited difficulty in performing shigin and chewing due to the instability and poor retention of dentures. The occlusal plane was irregular because of elongated maxillary teeth, and both maxillary and mandibular dentures were ill-fitting. A cone crown telescope was inserted into the maxilla, and a resin-base complete denture was inserted into the mandible after confirming retention and stability of the treatment dentures.</p><p>Discussion: Alteration and confirmation of the denture form and mandibular position using treatment dentures before placing the final dentures improved the speech disorder and masticatory disturbance.</p><p>Conclusion: The use of treatment dentures for patients with a markedly resorbed alveolar ridge may improve the therapeutic effects of the final dentures.</p>
