Abstract

It is very common to find maxillary single edentulous arch, but there are certain cases where edentulous arch is found to be Mandibular and this type of single complete dentures suffer greater pressures as the basal seat area available is limited and the opposing arch consists more or less of natural teeth. As the forces acting by the opposing natural teeth will be more on the denture, only heat cure acrylic resin would not withstand flexural strength and can lead to fracture. In the present case report Mandibular single complete denture was rehabilitated successfully by custom metal mesh with stoppers
