Stabilized record base for maxillary removable partial denture obturator.
Accurate maxillomandibular jaw relation records are enhanced by a stabilized framework used to support the occlusal rim and recording medium. Stability of the framework is often lost on the defect side because of the size of the surgical defect and/or number of missing teeth. This article introduces a technique that uses a record base stabilized with a soft resilient material that permits easy removal and replacement of the framework on the altered master cast without damage.
