Liquid-supported dentures. Part II: Clinical study, a preliminary report.
A clinical study was made of 11 selected patients wearing liquid-supported dentures. The experiences and opinions of the patients were assembled and the results are discussed. The most important conclusions of this study are that it is possible to make a liquid-supported denture that in general fits and feels comfortable, has proper retention, a slightly diminished masticatory function, and that can provide a solution to some problematic prosthodontic situations.
