Effect of denture adhesive on the retention and stability of mixillary dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994This study used quantitative methods to measure the effects of a denture adhesive on the retention and stability of the maxillary denture. Denture movements were measured on 20 patients during standardized chewing, swallowing, and speaking activities, first with no adhesive, and then at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours after application of an over-the-counter ...

Physical factors in retention of complete dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1971Abstract None of the physical factors involved in complete denture retention can be totally explained. However, some of them participate commonly in the intricate mechanism which is set in action at the moment of dislodgment of the denture. A most important factor in retention seems to be capillary attraction.

Inconspicuous retention for removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1978Many 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.

Retention and stability of mandibular dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1967Abstract 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.

Effect of an elastic lining on the retention of dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1968Abstract Denture retention was measured in each of ten patients who complained of poor retention. Eight of these dentures were restored to maximum retention by relining with a hydrophilic, soft-lining material. When new dentures were constructed, all ten patients obtained maximum retention.

Initial retention of complete mandibular dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1970Abstract 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 for a Removable Partial Denture
Journal of Prosthodontics, 1992This article addresses the complex nature of retention in a removable partial denture. Retentive features range from magnets and springs to clips, clasps, and interfacial surface tension. The retentive quality of an extracoronal clasp varies with the alloy, physical form, location on the abutment, and positional relationship to other elements ...

The role of learning in denture retention
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1960Abstract The clinical importance of learning and the capacity of learning relative to age are discussed and therapeutic aspects of wearing dentures are considered. Complete dentures are usually successful in young people, and, in such patients, dentures should be made with a balanced occlusion confined to a limited area in the muscular position of ...

Determining the retention of removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2019Removable partial dentures (RPDs) provide a cost-effective treatment for millions of partially edentulous patients worldwide. However, they often fail because of loss of retention. One reason for this problem is lack of precise guidelines for designing retentive RPDs.The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the forces produced by food and ...

Operation for Improved Retention of the Lower Denture
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1970Various procedures have been used to prevent denture “lift.” Lingual alveoloplasty and total vestibuloplasty both have disadvantages, but the method of partial vestibuloplasty described here has been found successful during ten years of clinical use.
