Abstract
In edentulous patient, restoring labial fullness is a delicate technique. To achieve our clinical aim, proper communication between the dentist and the laboratory technician is required. In some completely edentulous cases, the prominent enlarged labial flange of a complete denture contributes to poor facial aesthetics. To solve this problem, the complete denture was adjusted and a gum-fit or flangless denture was prescribed. This case reports presents a simple, cost-effective, conservative and non-surgical option for fabricating dentures in a patient with a large maxillary ridge in order to improve the patient's facial aesthetics.
