title: Complete removable dental prosthesis with the swing lock system: a clinical report.
abstract: This clinical report describes the fabrication of a maxillary complete removable dental prosthesis with the swing lock system. The patient presented with large undercuts on the buccal and labial areas of the edentulous maxillary arch and a history of various failed alveoloplasty procedures that had attempted to remove the exostoses preventing denture insertion. The prosthodontic planning and treatment approach are discussed.
