Abstract

At the department of prosthodontics, the elderly patients with severely atrophied alveolar ridge who have been wearing complete dentures for a long period frequently visit the clinic. In general, the open-mouth impression technique for manufacturing a mandibular complete denture to secure primary support on buccal shelf area has been prevalent. In addition, for securing retention and stability of mandibular denture, we should consider diagnosis, oral function, denture border, occlusal plane, teeth arrangement, and patient training, etc.. But in edentulous patients with severe alveolar bone atrophy, it may hardly secure retention and stability of mandibular complete denture. To promote these, some of clinicians are making an attempt manufacturing the mandibular complete dentures using closed-mouth impression technique based on several reports that compare various impression techniques including open-mouth and closed-mouth impression technique. This case report suggests closed-mouth impression technique may promote retention and stability of mandibular complete denture and compares between the two impression techniques clinically.

치과보철과에는 장기간 총의치를 사용해 온 고령 환자 중에서 발치 후 시간의 경과와 함께 심하게 치조골이 위축된 상태로 환자들이 종종 내원하게 된다. 통상 하악 총의치는 하악 협붕 부위의 1차 지지를 기반으로 한 개구인상법에 의해 제작하는 것이 일반적이다. 하악 총의치의 유지력 및 안정성을 확보하기 위해서는 진단에서부터 의치 주위 조직의 기능 및 의치상의 경계, 교합평면, 악궁의 대합관계, 인공치아의 배열, 저작습관, 그리고 환자에 대한 교육과 장착 후 주의 사항 등을 충분히 고려해두어야 한다. 그러나 치조골 위축이 심하게 발생된 무치악 환자에서 개구인상법을 이용하여 제작한 하악 총의치는 간혹 실제 저작과정에서 유지와 안정에 한계를 보이는 경우가 있기 때문에, 이에 대한 대안으로 폐구인상법을 이용한 총의치 제작 방법을 선호하는 임상가들에 의해 개구인상법과 폐구인상법을 비롯한 다양한 인상채득 방법을 비교한 연구가 보고되기도 하였다. 본 증례에서는 폐구인상법을 토대로 한 기능인상으로 하악 총의치를 제작하여 동일한 환자에서 개구인상법으로 제작한 의치보다 나은 유지력과 안정성을 확인했고, 심하게 치조골이 위축된 상태의 구강조건에서 개구인상법으로 제작한 의치와 폐구인상법으로 제작한 의치의 임상적 결과를 비교한 내용에 대해 보고하고자 한다.
