Customised Aesthetic Maxillary Complete Denture Prosthesis Using Characterization- A Case Series


Mayank Kumar Parakh, Krishna Prasad D
Abstract

For an esthetic appearance of a complete denture, characterization of the denture plays a significant role. Furthermore, giving appropriate contours and characterizing the denture bases can give a more natural and life-like appearance.

In this case series, the esthetics of a maxillary complete denture were enhanced using various shades of gingival composite resin, a flangeless maxillary denture with a diastema was fabricated, and a case of maxillary and mandibular sectionally characterized dentures.

On 6 months follow-up, all the characterized dentures showed good function and esthetics. Characterizing denture bases is an art, and fulfilling a patient’s esthetic need should be prioritized during treatment planning.
