No results posted yet for this study

Summary

the retromolar pad is a critical anatomical landmark in the lower edentulous arch marking the posterior end of any removable prosthesis. The significance of using this area to aid the retention of the lower denture is evaluated in this clinical study especially that the lower denture is always inferior in retention compared to the upper denture as a result of reduced denture bearing area.

Conditions
