Abstract:
Routine complications faced by the dentist include atrophic ridge, microstomia, flabby tissue, xerostomia , bony exostosis,
labially inclined premaxilla, esthetic demand, bruxism, systemic disorders, patients demand for duplicating dentures,etc.
Management of these difficulties can be done by proper incorporating of suitable materials and advanced techniques. This
article describes the unconventional approaches to various modalities so as to provide ultimate satisfaction for the patient.
