Abstract

When treating patients with edentulous jaws, maxillary complete dentures are rarely as difficult as mandibular complete dentures. Even patients with strong vomiting reflexes can be cleared by creating a denture with little movement by providing a sufficient impression and well-balanced occlusion.

In this paper, what should I do when it is difficult to apply implant treatment due to the difficulty of the ridge condition? What should I do if I can’t select All-on-4 or Zygoma Implant when I consider the patient’s age, general condition, and economic situation? I will describe these difficult problems with a personal opinion. It would be greatly appreciated if you could refer to how you think about edentulous prosthesis in our country, which is in a super-aged society.
