| Summary: | The success of a complete denture relies on the principles of retention, stability and support. A prosthodontist's skill lies in applying these principles efficiently in critical situations. Severely resorbed maxillary edentulous ridges that are narrow and constricted provide decreased retention, stability and support. This clinical report describes an alternative method for the fabrication of hollow maxillary complete denture, thereby enhancing stability and retention, reducing the further resorption of the jaws. It incorporates fabrication of clear, vacuum form shim ensuring that there is adequate room for resin and teeth. |
