A classification of the edentulous jaws

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1988
A classification of the edentulous jaws has been developed based on a randomised cross-sectional study from a sample of 300 dried skulls. It was noted that whilst the shape of the basalar process of the mandible and maxilla remains relatively stable, changes in shape of the alveolar process is highly significant in both the vertical and horizontal axes.

Edentulous orodyskinesia

Annals of Neurology, 1983
AbstractTwelve of 75 (16%) edentulous patients (mean age, 62 years) were found to have orofacial dyskinesias. Tooth extraction averaged 12 years before the onset of movements. No dentures were present in 50% of dyskinetic patients and in 9.5% of edentulous patients without dyskinesia. Movements of the lips, tongue, and jaw were marked in 3 patients and

The remodeling of the edentulous mandible

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1976
In a sample of mandibles having complete or nearly complete loss of dentition, the left half of each mandible was serially sectioned. The entire perimeter of each section was analyzed for the distribution of resorptive and depository periosteal surfaces, and from this information, the fields of remodeling were mapped for the mandible as a whole.

Contours of the edentulous palate

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1986
Diagnostic casts were made of the palates of 123 patients who had complete dentures. Categorization of all cross-arch palatal forms yielded a distribution in which 93% showed some variation of a U-shaped palatal form, be it angular or mildly curved.

Nutrition of edentulous patients

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1965
Abstract Many edentulous patients are "sick patients." Often, geriatric considerations are involved, as well as obesity and postmenopausal problems. These patients have deficient tissues on which to build dentures. One of the most important factors of a satisfactory prosthetic service is the nutrition of the patient.
