Abstract
Fracture of a single maxillary complete denture is a common occurrence in patients with opposing retained natural mandibular teeth. Factors like flexural fatigue caused by cyclic deformation, as well as those that aggravate the deformation of the denture base or change its load, have all been linked to the midline fracture. This case report presents oral rehabilitation of a completely edentulous maxillary arch opposing natural mandibular dentition using metal denture base and reinforcing acrylic teeth using amalgam stops along with establishing plane of occlusion with the help of a customized template to improve the longevity of the prosthesis. Single complete denture opposing natural dentition is a challenging job for the prosthodontist due to the biomechanical differences in the supporting tissues. As a prosthodontist, we must provide the patient a stable and functional prosthesis.
