Gingival stripping
Management
Make a good denture design
- rest is mandatory as it can act as support and as vertical stop to prevent
injury and over displacement of the soft tissue
Management
- correct placement of retentive clasp
: depends on survey line
: 1/3 of the tip must be below the survey line,
2/3 above the survey line
- tooth modification should be done when necessary
ex: if the survey line is too low, add composite
resin to prevent gingival stripping
Management
Free end saddle
- use RPI or RPA system
- I bar acts as retention
- make sure the I bar is not too close to
the gingiva
Management
Margin of major connector
- maxillary : at least 6mm from gingiva margin
- mandibular : at least 3mm from gingiva margin
Management
Gingival augmentation
- periodontal surgery to cover
gingival recession and stripping
