Fulltext PDFCompletely edentulous patients wearing dentures for long periods often experience instability of mandibular complete dentures due to severe ridge resorption and altered neuromuscular control. The neutral zone technique is an effective method for improving denture stability, retention, and comfort by utilizing the functional balance of surrounding oral musculature. Modern prosthodontics aims to restore function, esthetics, and phonetics in edentulous patients, and the neutral zone concept plays a vital role in achieving these goals. This article describes the management of severely resorbed ridges using the neutral zone technique in maxillary and mandibular complete dentures with materials such as condensation silicone and low-fusing impression compound for recording the neutral zone.
