The 2 pt compares dentures, they look similar. Are all dentures made the same
way? • There are reason why we
need to know and use different methods and procedures
• The PATIENT is an individual each with own clinical issues clinic lab procedures
• 2 mouths are never the same
• Do they all require the same level of skills?
• Are there different ways to make dentures?

WHEN IT COMES TO NEW DENTURES A COPY
DENTURE IS NEVER A 100% PERFECT COPY OF THE ORIGINAL THERE WILL ALWAYS BE
A VARIATION The Provider/ Patient determines
where and how much This procedure is intended to be used with selected cases

Copy / Replica Dentures • Copy dentures are not a new phenomena • If we look at dental history you are sure to
find methods and procedures. • Changes have occurred over the years due to
material and technical changes • Also due to clinical patient expectations • Techniques developed over 30 years as a
Dental technician / Prosthetist providing successful copy / replica dentures to patients

A New patient presents for treatment, and they have an existing set of dentures.
1. Do we look at the old set of dentures? 2. Do we discuss with the patient, issues, or how
successful the old set was ? Who made them? How old? Praise / admire good workmanship?
3. What problems they have with old dentures? 4. Or do we remove them from the mouth not
look at them and start treatment with new dentures without discussion re: old set? Or Patient expectations

Basic Criteria for copy denture technique
• Patient satisfied with current dentures • Clinician satisfied that current dentures have
all required criteria of • Aesthetics • Speech • Function • Comfort with extensions • Full history of previous materials used • Why patient wants copy denture or variations • Why clinician wants copy denture or variations

Some fundamentals that require understanding.
• 1: Impression methods • 2: Practicality of copy • 3: Why copy: • 4: Why make changes: • 5: Materials: • 6: Method of copy complex or easy • 7: Clinical complexity or ease in method
depending on clinicians skills • 8: Laboratory skills training to achieve desired
results in copy denture

Knowledge and use of different Impression materials, Lab Materials, Techniques
• To succeed in denture construction the knowledge and use of different impression materials along with the circumstances e.g. oral conditions of when the different material should be used is important.
• Therefore the formula for increasing the chance of success especially in the difficult cases must include.
• The oral conditions X Different impression materials X Clinical/ lab Techniques X patients / clinician rapport = increase success rate

copy dentures also known as replica/duplicate or template dentures
1: 3 types Impression techniques
• 1: mucostatic. • 2: mucocompresive. • 3: functional: 2 methods (a.b) • 3a: clinician assisted.
• 3b: patient produced.
• Remembering the issue of hydrophobic / hydrophilic or water repelling / attract impression (saliva: issue of retention) impression material springs away from tissue surface if incorrect material used
15
![Page 16: D.H.S · 2013-08-07 · fitting best overall during use for patient • Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011819/5e94abd1ab926a55a33e43b4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
MUCOSTATIC • Mucostatic: For all day use of dentures poor
during eating, chewing biting pressure, poor during general function. Unless very healthy supporting tissues and healthy saliva quality volume,
• . • Use the impression tray to achieve mucostatic
result think of the s/s mesh tray and the amount of resistance it caused in the impression material while compressing it against the positive side or perhaps a stock plastic tray with customized holes, more holes, or perhaps slightly bigger holes. Min resistance against positive side along with medium or light body impression material = mucostatic result

![Page 17: D.H.S · 2013-08-07 · fitting best overall during use for patient • Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011819/5e94abd1ab926a55a33e43b4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mucostatic
![Page 18: D.H.S · 2013-08-07 · fitting best overall during use for patient • Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011819/5e94abd1ab926a55a33e43b4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
MUCO COMPRESIVE • Mucocompresive: Better for dentures during
function but poor for all day use, e.g. This is when supporting ridges are poor and flabby and lacking supporting bone.
• Again think of the impression tray which is solid with no perforations, or customized acrylic tray and how the impression material medium or light body with no escape acts against the positive side while its been pressed into position, produces resistance against positive side = mucocompresive

FUNCTIONAL clinician / patient assisted
• Is best for f/f situations This allows for static and compression in required areas to provide max comfort during use well fitting best overall during use for patient
• Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges. Occurs at peripheral roll of denture
• Patient assisted: Where the patient stimulates all areas during use to provide a functional base and peripheral roll for impression taking or completely functional as is .

FUNCTIONAL
Clinician assisted
• WHEN: During impression taking • MATERIALS: silicone/ polyvinyl/ rubber/zoe • METHOD: clinician stimulates cheeks and lips
during impression taking, stimulation basically entails stretching and moving lips and cheeks as material is setting.
• commonly used. • Remember water repelling / attract impression material
(saliva: issue of retention) choice of impression material important.
![Page 22: D.H.S · 2013-08-07 · fitting best overall during use for patient • Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011819/5e94abd1ab926a55a33e43b4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
FUNCTIONAL Patient assisted • MATERIALS: Tissue conditioner /soft liner • WHEN: Before final impression,
with extra light body impression • METHOD: Apply tissue conditioner to labio/buccal
extensions (this allows room for imp ) allow patient to make own cheek and lip movements and encourage them to talk as base is setting. Once set use light body to take final wash impression. In case of flabby ridges apply material to fitting surface as well the patient stimulates all areas to provide a functional base during normal use. Can also be used 1 week prior light body wash impression

2: Practicality of copy • Uses materials that are available in
clinic / laboratory • Straight forward easy procedure for clinician
Dental lab technician to follow • Taking into consideration practical and non
complex steps to reduce chances of mistakes from both operators, clinician or dental technician
• Time required reduced due to simplicity

3: Why copy? • You or other provider made previous denture and
patient extremely happy wants the same or similar in new replacement denture
• Patient extremely happy wants a spare set • Patient happy with everything except for shade/mold • Patient old frail minimal changes to reduce
complications • Patient medically compromised : Stroke, M.S,
Oral Scleroderma, Micro Stoma. Parkinson's, Oral Cancer history or Psychological Disorders. Neuromuscular control already established with old dentures.
• TMJ Guidance established, occlusal plane established

Scleroderma
• Word origin Greek: Scleroderma
• Derived from two words
• Sclero: Hardening • Derma: Skin • When this condition occurs to the mouth:
it can result in pain and Micro Stoma • It causes difficulties in examination and
treatment
![Page 27: D.H.S · 2013-08-07 · fitting best overall during use for patient • Clinician assisted: Where the clinician stimulates cheeks / lips to reproduce function. Not possible on ridges](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011819/5e94abd1ab926a55a33e43b4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Micro Stoma: As found in Aged S /N Patients Origin of words: Greek
Micro: Small Stoma: Mouth
Complexities in obtaining 1st , 2nd impressions,
and centric registration in scleroderma micro stoma cases are reduced when using the Copy Denture Technique
Therefore increasing chance of success with less injury
during impression taking/registration for new dentures

4: Why make changes? clinical
• Lost vertical dimension (over closure 10mm + change in stages) or with explanation to patient and patient prepared to try (age)
• Aesthetics shade or shape of teeth • Speech problems (Sounds not formed correctly teeth in wrong
location)
• Incorrect occlusal plane (e.g: reverse curve) • Incorrect neuromuscular control (Y ki Ki wave Dr R)
• Incorrect arch teeth location ants or posts (tongue, cheeks, lips)
• T.M.J problems developed (pain noise clicking)

WHY DO WE NEED TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THESE TECHNIQUES
• Advantages and Disadvantages of technique • To patient • To clinician • To laboratory • To use a method that produces desired results • Dental Laboratories can use variety of methods
to copy replicate dentures, clinician should discuss and understand procedure Dental Lab is using

To Patient ADVANTAGES
• Very Similar to old dentures easily adapt to new. Neuromuscular acceptance
• Time saving less appointments (cost saving)
• Discomfort during impressions reduced
• Occlusal plane kept similar reduced difficulties during eating
• Tmj discomfort reduced • copyright
DISADVANTAGES • Required to be without
denture for the day • Morning appointment and
to collect old dentures in afternoon

To clinician ADVANTAGES
• Require less appointments • (Minimal intervention dentistry)
• Reduced follow up appointments
Increase chance of acceptance of dentures • Reduces wait list • Accepted method of
treatment with explanation to patient and dental laboratory
• Over all less appointments wait room, reception staff, nursing staff, utilities reduced
• Flow on affect copyright
DISADVANTAGES
Special training to clinician • Special team effort
required by Clinician and Dental laboratory
• Chair side occlusal adjustments at insert or c.v
• Lab does not always have time .Due to different procedure cost variation on lab fees 47

• Fewer deliveries • Increase productivity • Reduced chance of re try • New skills learning • Possible increase in fees
due to time variants of procedure
• copyright
Disadvantages
• No special trays, less fees • No registration rims, • Create all new key ways • Re articulate after process
and spot grind. Time + skills • Require some extra training • Team effort time flexibility

6c: Method of copy
• The ease and use of standard procedures and materials
• The basic reasons why this method is used • 1: allows you to copy the shape of
labio/bucal surfaces • Approximate Occlusal surfaces tooth
location size and shade, or exact if you have on record previous teeth used
• Fitting area extensions of acrylic base same or variations as required

Reasons and Benefits to copy /replicate • Most of our special needs patients and elderly with numerous
medical / physical / cognitive issues with the added possibility of deteriorated neuromuscular control
• We know the importance of good neuromuscular control when it comes to dentures. This is evident on a 1st time denture wearer and observation after a period of time how they improve and adapt to the new shapes in mouth
• REASONS • If the patient wishes a spare set of dentures happy with existing set
• If the dentures are old worn e.g. (15 -20 years old) wishes new set
• if patient has poor neuromuscular control (common with S/N/Patient)
• If patient has speech issues (copy used as a diagnostic starting point)
• If patient has appearance issues (copy used as a diagnostic starting point)

AESTHETICS follow basic guidelines
• Shade of teeth: use skin tones, hair color, eye color.
• Tooth shape and size. • Characterization of set up. Direct Copy
or Natural look v’s artificial look. • Compare other dentures, if any photographs.
Not only the ones you will copy good history
• A special needs patient may experience increased confidence and an enhanced level of well being when aesthetics have been achieved. With history taking opportunity to improve if required or copy only with discussion (some times patient wishes minor alterations)

EATING • Patients that are frail aged or not willing to
undergo treatment • Poor oral conditions and at high risk of injury • To try to provide this type of patient with
new dentures at an advanced age to improve eating ability is extremely difficult
• We cannot force treatment on patient unless they are willing to be treated
• That the treatment will have a +ve result without further injury or distress to patient
• Sometimes puree food is all that will be tolerated.

Speech Patients with special needs might have speech
difficulties. Before treatment : • Assess and conduct a basic speech exam and
ascertain if new dentures might be of benefit in improving speech.
• Or copy replica technique as a choice • Patients can become frustrated if new
dentures interfere with speech and may give up on dentures. Use of Copy replica option might be best
• Assessment is purely a visual and listening process This skill requires time and effort to develop looking and listening for specific sounds and correct position of tongue, lips and teeth.

The lower denture shows part of build up attempting to restore lost V.D this shows how an elderly, or special needs patient
would find it hard to cope with such a change. Recommend increments of 2-3mm in stages of aprox 6 months
to restore max of 70-80% lost V.D in these type of cases. In younger patients almost 100% lost V.D with increments
3-4mm as early as 3 months can be achieved.

Summary of method
• Traditional practiced methods require duplication of dentures including fitting area with acrylic
• Other methods work directly onto final model
with a wax duplicate as technique in a new denture with the added advantage of copying good aspects and removing faulty ones as working with wax makes it easy than on acrylic

It might seem easy to copy, restore, or construct new dentures, but to also have an understanding of
the Key clinical points, Lab Techniques, all materials, patients medical, physical, psychological and social well being of the S/N and Aged patient and how
that impacts on the patient and dentures will achieve success

IN SUMMARY AGED S / N PATIENT
• Flexibility in approach to treatment is essential • Knowledge and understanding of difficulties patient has.
(Research areas that you don’t understand) • Try different methods to solve problems • Copy replica denture technique as option • Be realistic in your own and your teams abilities • Consult with colleagues if difficulties arise • Is case likely to have adverse results, be prepared to
stop treatment and record reasons. • Ensure patient comfort during treatment • Look for patients ABILITIES NOT DISABILITIES
• Empathy and understanding for patient and family

Discussions with special needs patients
• Obtaining oral health services as a patient with special needs?
• How patient felt about Domiciliary service? 49

Patient feedback
• Reluctance from some practitioners to treat special needs patients.
• Patients can become depressed, frustrated and possibly upset ( in the manner they have been treated)
• At first patients had reservations did not know how
and if treatment can be carried out at own residence • During / After treatment: Appreciative, thankful
any reservations from domiciliary service soon disappeared and some patients look forward to appointments

Have we achieve holistic restoration with copy replica technique?
• In majority of cases a great outcome is achieved as close to patient requirements as we can provide. (and that inspires us to keep trying)
• And in some 1st time denture wearing a compromised result. (advise patient of compromised areas prior to completion of new dentures and what they can do to improve situation).
• Remember the mouth is an ever-changing environment unfortunately with a greater rate in the Aged, and Special Needs Patients.

In Conclusion
• There is no harm in copying the good functional,
aesthetical features of a well made denture and excluding the faults and improving on them.
