Abstract

Patient: The patient was a 70-year-old male with the chief complaints of masticatory disturbance and an esthetic problem with a maxillary complete denture. The left canine was added to the maxillary partial denture as a complete denture and it was discolored and ill-fitting to the residual ridge. We relined the dentures and made both the new complete dentures with cast reinforcements.<br>Discussion: By embedding the cast reinforcement, the complete dentures become more rigid and could decrease denture deformation. As a result, denture fracture, deformation and ridge resorption could be prevented.<br>Conclusion: A cast reinforcement of the denture base can make the denture more rigid and prevent various problems after denture insertion.
