Abstract | ||||
Purpose: Patient satisfaction for the complete denture constructed by using two impression techniques was assessed. A custom dual tray was used as a modification of window impression technique versus the conventional impression technique.Subjects and methods: Ten completely edentulous patients with anterior hypermobile tissues were included in this study, using a non-randomized cross-over study design. The aim of the study was to evaluate patient satisfaction with two maxillary complete dentures constructed for each patient, one using the windows impression approach with a custom-made dual tray and the other using the conventional impression technique with a custom single tray. The time interval for using each set was about 3 and 6 months. Patients’ satisfactions were assessed at every time interval. Data was analyzed to determine the patient satisfaction with the different complete dentures using the SPSS.ver.23 and Wilcoxon signed rank test at (α = 0.05). Results: Patients’ satisfaction survey showed that the 2 different maxillary dentures were not statistically equivalent, where the maxillary complete denture constructed with windows technique using the dual custom tray demonstrated greater patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Within this study, complete denture constructed with windows technique using the dual custom tray improves the denture function and subsequently the patient satisfaction | ||||
