Digital denture impressions may offer better fit for flabby gums

NCT ID NCT07108322

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a digital scanner could replace the tricky 'window technique' for making dentures in people with loose, flabby gum tissue (flabby ridge). 26 adults with no teeth and flabby upper gums were randomly assigned to get dentures made either by digital scanning or the traditional method. The goal was to see which approach led to better denture retention and higher patient satisfaction. Results will help dentists choose a simpler, more comfortable option for this common challenge.
