title: [Follow-up studies on dentures in patients with teeth in both jaws which do not occlude (Group C-1 according to Eichner)].
abstract: Follow-ups in class C 1 patients who underwent prosthetical treatment seemed indicated since little was known about the chances of success. It was possible to examine 20 patients of this groups mainly with regard to objective functional efficiency of the dental replacement worn from 1 to 8 years. Furthermore, articulation occlusion, relationship of upper and lower jaws, and frequency of required repairs were checked. Purely gingivally borne prostheses as well as periodontally supported and gingivally borne dentures had the same rate of success. The mixed form, i.e. gingivally borne in the upper jaw and periodontally supported and gingivally borne in the lower jaw, seemed to be less favorable due to differing load tolerances.
