A case report sublingual crescent technique, a solution to severely resorbed mandibular ridge
Residual ridge resorption is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible condition primarily affecting edentulous patients. Those who wear dentures for a very long-time result in severe resorption. The traditional method of fabricating prostheses can be demanding for practitioners, requiring a high level of skill and expertise to achieve optimal results. Extending the anterior flange on the lingual aspect of the lower denture can significantly improve retention, providing a more stable and secure fit for the patient. This case report enhances the retention of the lower denture and achieves a successful complete denture wearer.
