A six-year retrospective study of Molloplast-B-lined dentures. Part I: Patient response.
A 6-year retrospective investigation elicited patient response to wearing Molloplast-B-lined dentures with the following results: 1. For nearly all the patients wearing a Molloplast-B-lined denture, their ability to wear it comfortably outweighs its disadvantages. 2. Nearly all the patients (95.4%) would elect to have a new soft-lined denture should their present one need replacement. 3. Nearly all the patients (93%) thought that their soft-lined dentures were more comfortable than their previous conventional acrylic resin ones. 4. Molloplast-B-lined dentures offered comfort to a significant number of patients in this study who had had a history of chronic discomfort with the wearing of conventional acrylic resin dentures. 5. The presence of a retracted tongue habit is likely to decrease the patient's satisfaction with the dentures.
