Patient management and decision making in complete denture fabrication using a duplicate denture procedure: A clinical report

A patient may have difficulty adapting to a new prosthesis for either physical or psychological reasons. This article describes a procedure for duplicating an existing denture and gives the practitioner an alternative to the traditional denture fabrication techniques. The duplicated denture fabrication technique minimizes the changes to the new denture, making it easier for the patient to adapt to new dentures. However, in-depth communication with the patient is necessary for successful denture therapy.
