INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
The single complete denture opposing all or some of the
natural dentition is not an uncommon occurrence.
Causes for the loss of teeth from the dental arches like
periodontal problems, dental caries and trauma.
The incidence of tooth loss is more in maxillary arch
compared to mandibular arch
The single complete denture should be fabricated for
reasons like mastication and esthetics.

Successful complete denture use by
patients depends on many variables. but
three factors stand out in terms of
functional success:

Equilibrium or balance is achieved when
the five elements are in harmony
A change in any of the five elements
requires changes in at least one of the
remaining four elements.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
For example, if the incisal guidance is increased
either a decrease in the condylar guidance or an
increase in the compensating curve, cusp height,
or occlusal plane must occur to maintain balance.
Because the condylar guidance cannot change
without surgical intervention, one or more of the
three elements to the right of the equation must
be adjusted.

ConverselyConversely, if there is an increase in the cusp, if there is an increase in the cusp

When the dentist is faced with fabricating
only a single denture. however, control of

The maxillary arch usually is the first arch to
become edentulous.
The position of the remaining natural teeth in
these examples may create interferences in
excursive movements of the single complete
denture and create instability that would not be a
problem in a patient with natural dentition in both
arches and with anterior guidance correcting
these interferences may be as simple as an
occlusal adjustment or as severe as extraction
of the offending tooth.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
This article discusses various
nonextractive or nonorthodontic treatment
modalities that may be used with various
patients to achieve a balanced occlusion
and to improve the stability of the single
denture opposing natural teeth.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
Occlusal discrepancies
The proposed changes to occlusal discrepancies
are best planned ahead of time in the dental
laboratory on properly articulated casts to
prevent unnecessary and irreversible alterations
to the dentition.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
Making adjustments to the dentures after
fabrication is not advisable because changes to
the arrangement of the denture teeth are no
longer possible. Patients also may view these
postdelivery adjustments as an attempt to
make the natural teeth fit a poorly made denture.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
Tooth selection
Anatomic teeth usually are chosen in the single
complete denture to enhance esthetics. The
decision as to which cusped tooth to choose is
based on evaluation of the condylar guidance and
incisal guidance and therefore is selected after
anterior tooth setup.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
In patients who present with a full dentition
on the mandible, the condylar guidance,
occlusal plane, and compensating curve are
already pre-set, so the only variables that
the dentist can easily control are the incisal
guidance and the cusp height .The incisal
guidance can be evaluated with esthetics
and phonetics.

  • 2. INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION The single complete denture opposing all or some of the natural dentition is not an uncommon occurrence. Causes for the loss of teeth from the dental arches like periodontal problems, dental caries and trauma. The incidence of tooth loss is more in maxillary arch compared to mandibular arch The single complete denture should be fabricated for reasons like mastication and esthetics. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com

  • 15. Equilibrium or balance is achieved when the five elements are in harmony A change in any of the five elements requires changes in at least one of the remaining four elements. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 16. For example, if the incisal guidance is increased either a decrease in the condylar guidance or an increase in the compensating curve, cusp height, or occlusal plane must occur to maintain balance. Because the condylar guidance cannot change without surgical intervention, one or more of the three elements to the right of the equation must be adjusted. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com

  • 20. The maxillary arch usually is the first arch to become edentulous. The position of the remaining natural teeth in these examples may create interferences in excursive movements of the single complete denture and create instability that would not be a problem in a patient with natural dentition in both arches and with anterior guidance correcting these interferences may be as simple as an occlusal adjustment or as severe as extraction of the offending tooth. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 21. This article discusses various nonextractive or nonorthodontic treatment modalities that may be used with various patients to achieve a balanced occlusion and to improve the stability of the single denture opposing natural teeth. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 22. Occlusal discrepancies The proposed changes to occlusal discrepancies are best planned ahead of time in the dental laboratory on properly articulated casts to prevent unnecessary and irreversible alterations to the dentition. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 23. Making adjustments to the dentures after fabrication is not advisable because changes to the arrangement of the denture teeth are no longer possible. Patients also may view these postdelivery adjustments as an attempt to make the natural teeth fit a poorly made denture. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 24. Tooth selection Anatomic teeth usually are chosen in the single complete denture to enhance esthetics. The decision as to which cusped tooth to choose is based on evaluation of the condylar guidance and incisal guidance and therefore is selected after anterior tooth setup. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 25. In patients who present with a full dentition on the mandible, the condylar guidance, occlusal plane, and compensating curve are already pre-set, so the only variables that the dentist can easily control are the incisal guidance and the cusp height .The incisal guidance can be evaluated with esthetics and phonetics. www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
