Abstract

In day to day clinical practice encountering a completely edentulous patient with abnormal jaw relation in adjunct with highly resorbed residual ridge is a challenging scenario, as it consequently results into compromised retention, support and stability of prosthesis. Varied material and techniques are available in literature to maximize stability in patient with abnormal jaw relation and increased inter arch space. Though, the key to success remains the same, which is a customised treatment planning according to the demand of the remaining oral condition. Thus this article describes a practically easy, convenient and precise technique for managing small maxillary arch and wide mandibular arch with high restorative space by cross arch teeth arrangement and use of novel 3D caramel spacer technique for the fabrication of hollow denture.
