Salivary secretion and denture retention

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1992
Correlations between the retention of complete dentures and flow rates of the palatal and parotid glands were studied in 86 patients. The determination of secretion rates and forces of the forward leverage leading to a dislocation of the dentures showed a narrow correlation between the secretion of palatal glands and the retention of maxillary dentures.

Denture adhesives: their effects on denture retention and stability

Journal of Dentistry, 1985
Abstract Denture adhesives have been used by denture wearers for many years. A number of studies have been conducted to assess the effectiveness of these adhesives. This article describes a technique whereby the effectiveness of the adhesives was determined with the dentures in function through the use of the kinesiograph. The results indicated that

More Retentive Complete Dentures

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1970
Denture stability is best achieved when the denture base approximates the underlying tissue as closely as possible, when the border seal is as complete as possible, and when the thinnest possible fluid film is provided between denture base and mucosa.

On complete denture retention

Australian Dental Journal, 1983
Abstract— Denture retention by atmospheric pressure is discussed. A potential space which is enclosed by a salivary meniscus exists between a denture base and the oral mucosa. When the denture is dislodged, this space is forced to expand and the meniscus recedes, but the recession is impeded by the viscosity of the saliva and a negative pressure is ...

Inconspicuous retention for removable partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1978
Many dentists and patients believe that removable partial dentures have an unesthetic appearance when they replace anterior teeth because of the visible clasps. Two methods of obtaining inconspicuous retention have been described.

Improving the retention of complete dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1975
1 he adhesive action of a thin film of saliva between the oral mucosa and the inner (basal) surface of a complete denture is recognized as one of the principle sources of denture retention. The retaining force due to capillarity (capillary attraction) is directly proportional to the surface tension of the fluid film, the area of solid surfaces, and the

Initial retention of complete mandibular dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1970
Abstract Initial retention of the mandibular denture was clinically observed and measured as both static and dynamic retention. There was strong evidence that retention of a mandibular denture might continue although the actual period of time could not be determined. Initial retention of the mandibular denture was considered the result of securing the

Retention and stability of mandibular dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1967
Abstract A prime cause of denture problems has been shown to relate to the difficulty of duplicating actual jaw relationships because of the basal seat tissue distortion that occurs during function. The functionally generated path technique will help to eliminate much of this problem.
