    Study Notes

    Denture Placement

    • The denture should be located slightly anterior to the retromolar pad.

    Bone Changes with Age

    • As a person ages, the alveolar bone resorbs, leading to a decrease in bone height.

    Lateral Posterior Border Placement

    • The lateral posterior border of the denture should be placed in the hamular notch, a small depression behind the maxillary tuberosity.

    Denture Base Coverage

    • Covering a greater area with the denture base increases stability and retention.

    Proper Extent of Denture Base

    • Proper extent of the denture base is critical for stability, retention, and support.
    • Inadequate extension can lead to discomfort, instability, and poor retention.
    • Excessive extension can lead to tissue irritation and discomfort.
