title: A simplified method for fabrication of new complete dentures.
abstract: This article discusses a simple technique for fabricating a new set of complete dentures when there is a reasonable existing upper and lower denture pair. This method reduces the number of appointments needed, and may be very helpful in treating patients with transportation difficulties, especially when the dentist is able to perform some simple laboratory procedures such as mounting the case on the articulator. The technique is well-suited for a "worn-out" set of complete dentures.
