Abstract

Dental laboratories are commonly confronted with individuals seeking alterations on their complete or partial dentures. Some of these problems may not be related procedure followed to produce such dentures in the dental laboratories, rather they may be the result of improper use or even unrevealed certain dental history by the patient due to lack of knowledge or just as a matter of careless. Identifying the most common problems may help both technicians and patients avoiding repeating of casting procedure and costs as well as unnecessary efforts. The most common problem exhibited by wearers of complete and partial denture are loose dentures and lack of retention.Gum diseases are only found in patients wearing complete dentures (4.3%).
