USE OF BROADRICK FLAG IN PROSTHODONTIC MANAGEMENT FOR SINGLE COMPLETE DENTURE: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

When the Opposing Natural teeth do not provide a harmonious occlusal relationship necessary to achieve adequate stability, it becomes a demanding situation to construct a Single Complete Denture. This article reports a case wherein a Broderick flag was used for proper establishing of occlusal plane of natural teeth. This will decrease the risk of arbitrary grinding & creating a favorable occlusal plane. It eliminates the hardship of estimating clinical reductions on the basis of adjustments made on preliminary casts. This method will minimize guesswork through guided intraoral reduction.
