Sažetak
Loss of mandibular continuity creates great problems in prosthetic rehabilitation of edentulous patients. The problems resulting from resection of the mandible comprise difficulty in mastication on other mandibular movements due to loss of physiological funcion and coordination of masticatory muscles, as well as decrease in the lower denture foundation. This report presents fabrication procedures of complete dentures in a patient with unilateral partial resection of the mandible. Two functional impressions secured correct impression of the denture foundation and maximum extension of the denture borders. The function of prostheses in static and dynamic conditions was achieved by correctly defined interarch relationships, arrangement of anterior teeth in accordance with aesthetics, phonation and function and arrangment of posterior teeth in accordance with the ligual area, intercuspidation, static occlusion and articulation. After handing in the dentures to the patient, both static and dynamic occlusion were corrected by a remount procedure. A check-up six months after denture fabrication showed that the patient had normal swallowing and speech, control of salivation and satisfactory masticatory function.
