Activity Description

In an individual's life, teeth play an indispensable role as their loss may affect not only the function but also the aesthetics. The success of the mucosa-borne complete denture prosthesis given to the patient to replace the missing teeth is dependent on various factors, among which stability of the complete denture, particularly the mandibular denture, plays a significant role. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of instability in mandibular denture and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in improving care for patients with this condition.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of dentists.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, the learner will be better able to:

  • Review the presentation of the patient with dentures for stability in the mandibular denture.
  • Explain the management considerations for patients with dentures for stability in the mandibular denture.
  • Explain how to counsel a patient with dentures regarding stability in the mandibular denture.
  • Summarize the importance of collaboration and communication among the interprofessional team to improve outcomes for a patient receiving denture prosthesis in terms of stability in the mandibular denture.
