Abstract
Patient: A 62-year-old edentulous female patient visited with a chief complaint of poor retention of lower complete denture during singing. A lower complete denture was fabricated applying flange technique to improve retention and stability during functional movement.
Discussion: A chief complaint of poor retention and stability of the lower denture during singing was improved by applying flange technique. It seemed that a use of composite denture teeth with high wear resistance contributed to keep occlusal condition for long time in this case.
Conclusion: In this case, a lower complete denture was improved retention and stability during singing by applying flange technique. 12 years have passsed without problems.
