Laboratory Remounting of Complete Denture:A Systematic Review

Statement of Problem: Simpler processing method has been tried in fabrication of complete denture but the importance of inclusion of laboratory remounting procedure is uncertain.

Purpose: The purpose of the systematic review was to assess the relevance of laboratory remounting procedure on complete denture.

Materials and Method: One electronic database (PubMed) was searched through in July 2019. The terms “laboratory remounting” AND “occlusion” were chosen. The titles and abstracts were screened and the studies which performed laboratory remount were selected.

Results: After duplicate removal, the database search showed 10 studies. Out of which 5 were retrieved for full text assessment. 5 randomized control clinical studies were included and 1 review study.

Conclusion: A laboratory procedure is advised to reduce occlusal disharmony and provide comfort to patients and reducing recall appointments.
