Then was rehabilitated with upper and lower removable denture. She came to us in order to perform new removable dentures. During intra-oral examination we observed poor reabsorption in both alveolar ridges and a markedly strangled conformation on anterior region of upper ridge with great palatine-vestibular volume. Although that anatomic deformation and after analyze the aesthetic profile we chose to perform mucous-supported dentures without surgery keeping the upper teeth crimped without lip flap. Although anatomical conditions of the patient appeared to be unfavorable to achieving a mucous-supported prosthesis without pre-prosthetic surgery, we take advantage of the superior alveolar conformation performing a quite satisfactory rehabilitation, either aesthetic and functional.
